Pastoral Letters on Reconciliation With Indigenous Peoples
"That We May Walk Together"
As the Archdiocese of Regina continues its journey towards healing and reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples, we wish to share a series of letters from the Bishops of Canada that detail several paths forward and serve as a guides for our efforts over the coming months and years. These letters have been informed by conversations with Indigenous partners and inspired by Pope Francis.
Here, you will find several foundational commitments made by the Bishops of Canada, and our Diocese, including continuing dialogue, supporting local projects through the Indigenous Reconciliation Fund, promoting Indigenous culture, pursuing justice with Indigenous Peoples, addressing social challenges, celebrating the role of women in Indigenous faith communities, and inviting Indigenous Elders to share their spiritual wisdom.
The pastoral letters can be found as a few copies in the Gerein Centre and below:
Pastoral Letter to the First Nations
Pastoral Letter to the Inuit in Canada

Celebration of the Mass at Holy Cross
The Dispensation from Mass has been lifted. The faithful are asked to attend Mass on Sundays and holy days of obligation. The sick and medically vulnerable have always been dispensed from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass. If you are ill, elderly or medically vulnerable in any way, you are urged to continue to take every precaution to keep yourself and others safe.
Mases and Gatherings
We use the Gerein Centre entrance as the primary entrance and have the Douglas Avenue doors open as well on the weekends. Please sanitize your hands when you come in. Although physical distancing will no longer be required, we strongly suggest to continue distancing practices.

Sign of Peace
Physical touching (shaking hands, hugging, etc.) is now up to the individual and their comfort level. The Sign of Peace may be expressed with handshakes, hugs, a bow or similar ritual gesture.
