For our school-going children: Parents, please encourage and bring your children to Church for Mass and Confession during the above times. Parents are the primary educators of the Faith. The Faith is inculcated by bringing you children to Mass every Sunday. The Catholic Schools and the Parish assist with the education of the Faith. And the Parish administers the Sacraments. Let us help our young people by bringing them to Church (Sunday Masses) and teaching them to pray regularly.
Welcome to our newly restored and beautiful St. Basil's Church built in 1867 (The Parish was established in 1842) and now restored in 2023 / 2024. This church building is among the few oldest standing churches in the Diocese of Hamilton. And, as we believe, the walls of St. Basil's are soaked and blessed for decades with the prayers of our beloved ancestors. Come and experience this sacred and powerful Church for yourself... The Presence, The Faith, The Beauty and the vibrance of this multi-culturally blessed St. Basil's Catholic Church Community in Brantford, Ontario.

IN AN EMERGENCY:
Please proceed immediately to the Brantford General Hospital
After being admitted, kindly request the HOSPITAL STAFF to contact the "ON CALL" CATHOLIC PRIEST for the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick (bringing healing and incorporating Reconciliation and the Last Rites). This sacrament of healing may be administered as soon as your loved one is sick; one does not have to wait until death is imminent. Please call as soon as your family member becomes critically ill.
If you have received the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick (Last Rites) recently, then let us trust that God is active and working within us and that this sacrament of healing is on going. However, you may certainly receive this sacrament again the following year if needed.
PRESS RED BUTTON, fill out the details, and your donation will be sent directly to the parish. Thank you for your support. Tax receipts will be issued instantly via email.
