On September 25th, St. Pat's hosted its annual Volunteer Recognition Dinner to honour the volunteers who share their time, talents, good humour, and compassion with our residents, families, and staff week after week, and year after year! Whether they serve as porters to Holy Mass, the hair dressing salon and special events, as friendly visitors and pastoral care volunteers, as Paddy's Place cashiers or programming assistants, the individual and collective contribution of these volunteers cannot be underestimated.

This year, St. Patrick's Home invited nominations for the new Grey Sisters of the Immaculate Conception (GSiC) Volunteer Award. Just as the esteemed St. Marguerite d’Youville Award celebrates staff that live the mission of our Home through their work, the GSIC Volunteer Award was created to recognize volunteers who exemplify the Grey Sisters' spirit of compassion, dedication, and selflessness in their service to others.

We were moved by the number of nominations put forward, each one describing the joy, dedication and special contribution of the nominee; and we're excited to share that Lynda Anderson was the recipient of the inaugural GSIC Volunteer Award in recognition of her work on Waterford House and her invaluable assistance with the annual Resident Quality of Life Survey. Congratulations to Lynda, and thank you to all those honoured at the dinner for for making our community and Home a better place.

On a sunny Wednesday afternoon, September 24th, 2025, residents, families, and staff gathered together to raise our new St. Pat’s flag - a symbol of pride and unity for our Home. This meaningful initiative was inspired by our Residents’ Council President, Andrea Phoenix (pictured below with President and CEO,
Monique Patterson), whose thoughtful suggestion was met with
enthusiastic support from the entire Council.

We spoke to Andrea who told us she felt “something seems missing” while looking up at our Canada flag one morning. The idea of a St. Pat’s flag immediately came to mind and she quickly reached out to Monique who supported her in bringing the idea to life. Andrea goes on to explain that she “met with Monique to discuss getting a flag with the Home’s logo and wording. The flag was designed and we had a flag raising ceremony with Monique and myself giving speeches. After prayers, a bible reading and the Lord's Prayer, the flag was raised with all shouting "Hip Hip Hooray!"

Today is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. It is incumbent upon us to remember the children forcibly removed from their families and placed in residential schools and commit to reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples. Let us remember that “Every Child Matters” is not just a message—it is a call to action.

Last week, we were honoured to celebrate the remarkable lives of four residents. The annual Century Bash allows us the opportunity to recognize the important contribution they’ve made to St. Pat’s, their families and friends, and our communities over a 100-year span, and counting!
