1. Saint Mary Magdalene Church, Hagwilget
Saint Mary Magdalene Church in Hagwilget (close to New Hazelton) was reopened earlier this year. Now the community would like to obtain hymn books for its church. It would be much appreciated if any parish could spare some copies of the Catholic Book of Worship (any version); if several parishes gave a few copies each, the requested 25 copies could be easily assembled. Books can be sent to the Diocesan Centre. Please call (250) 964-4424 if you are able to help. Thank you!
