Holy Family, Toronto (Parkdale)
Holy Family is a Roman Catholic church in Toronto's west end neighbourhood of Parkdale and within the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Toronto. It has been served since 1979 by clergy of the Oratory of St Philip Neri who also run a seminary from the location.

Later, Holy Family would serve the local Catholic institutions on Queen Street (now the Queensway) that had been created in St. Helen's Parish in the 1870s during Parkdale's first period of growth as an independent village; Sacred Heart Orphanage (now St. Joseph's Health Centre) and Our Lady of Mercy Palliative Care Centre originally run by the Sisters of St. Joseph, that first opened in Toronto Architect John Howard's 'Sunnyside' home, as well as Our Lady of Charity convent and school for wayward girls (now demolished) that was opened out of Parkdale fo ...

Toronto Oratory
The Toronto Oratory is a Catholic community of priests living under the rule of life established by its founder, Philip Neri (1515-1595). It is housed next to the Holy Family Church in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. History In the early 1970s, Fr Jonathan Robinson, at that time a priest of the Archdiocese of Montreal, gathered together several young men to live as a pious community considered to be under the patronage and inspiration of St Philip Neri. On 1 November 1975 (Solemnity of All Saints), the Holy See gave its approval to this community and thereby erected the Montreal Oratory. In 1979, the Apostolic Visitor of the Oratory recommended that the Oratory be transplanted to Toronto. At the invitation of Cardinal Carter, the Oratory moved to Toronto and was put in charge of Holy Family Church. In 1995 they were asked to take over the neighbouring parish of St Vincent de Paul on Roncesvalles Avenue. In 1997, Holy Family Church burnt down, and the Oratory used St Vincent's as their ...

Tridentine Mass
The Tridentine Mass, also known as the Traditional Latin Mass or Traditional Rite, is the liturgy of Mass in the Roman Rite of the Catholic Church that appears in typical editions of the Roman Missal published from 1570 to 1962. Celebrated almost exclusively in Ecclesiastical Latin, it was the most widely used Eucharistic liturgy in the world from its issuance in 1570 until the introduction of the Mass of Paul VI (promulgated in 1969, with the revised Roman Missal appearing in 1970). The edition promulgated by Pope John XXIII in 1962 (the last to bear the indication ''ex decreto Sacrosancti Concilii Tridentini restitutum'') and Mass celebrated in accordance with it are described in the 2007 motu proprio '' Summorum Pontificum'' as an authorized form of the Church's liturgy, and sometimes spoken of as the Extraordinary Form, or the ''usus antiquior'' ("more ancient usage" in Latin). "Tridentine" is derived from the Latin ''Tridentinus'', "related to the city of Tridentum" (mode ...

Oratory Of Saint Philip Neri
The Confederation of Oratories of Saint Philip Neri ( la, Confoederatio Oratorii Sancti Philippi Nerii) abbreviated CO and commonly known as the Oratorians is a Catholic society of apostolic life of Pontifical Right for men (priests and lay-brothers) who live together in a community bound together by no formal vows but only with the bond of charity. Founded in Rome in 1575 by Philip Neri, today it has spread around the world, with over 70 Oratories and some 500 priests. The post-nominal initials commonly used to identify members of the society are "CO" (''Congregatio Oratorii''). The abbreviation "Cong. Orat." is also used. Unlike a religious institute (the members of which take vows and are answerable to a central authority) or a monastery (the monks of which are likewise bound by vows in a community that may itself be autonomous and answerable directly to the Pope), the Oratorians are made up of members who commit themselves to membership in a particular, independent, s ...

Good Shepherd Sisters
The Congregation of Our Lady of Charity of the Good Shepherd, also known as the Sisters of the Good Shepherd, is a Catholic religious order that was founded in 1835 by Mary Euphrasia Pelletier in Angers, France. The religious sisters belong to a Catholic international congregation of religious women dedicated to promoting the welfare of women and girls.
