May 10–17, 2026 • “I am with you always” (Matthew 28:20)

National Family and Life Week, organized by the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops, invites families, parishes, and schools across Canada to celebrate the gift of life and the presence of Christ in our daily experiences. This year’s theme reminds us that Christ accompanies us in our joys, our challenges, and our ordinary moments, strengthening our families and calling us to support one another with compassion.

The Ontario Provincial Council encourages members to reflect on how our lives bear witness to the dignity, sanctity, and value of every human life — and to consider how we can grow together as families rooted in gratitude and faith.
