We regret to inform you of the death of Reverend Father Vittorio Scomparin, who was our Pastor from 2000 to 2016. He died last Sunday, July 29, 2025, in Eraclea, near Venice, Italy. He was 72 years old. Father Vittorio was especially dedicated to the New Evangelization and introduced the Neocatechumenal Way to our Parish and to the Archdiocese of Vancouver. He assisted in establishing the Archdiocesan Missionary Seminary Redemptoris Mater of Vancouver. He oversaw the seismic upgrade and renovation of our church.
