BAPTISM SUNDAY DETAILS
On Sunday, August 31st we will be celebrating some baptisms! We will be meeting at 10:45am at Parc de la Promenade- Bellervie at the Abri-Soleil/Sun shelter that is just east of the corner of Rue Bellervie and Rue Mousseau. Here is a google map for the exact meeting location. For those coming by car, make sure you give yourself enough time to find parking.
After hearing testimonies from those getting baptized we will head down to the beach that is just east of the sun shelter for the baptisms. We will be doing the baptisms and baby dedication rain or shine. After the baptisms we will enjoy snacks at the beach (or the sun shelter if it is raining)- feel free to bring food for yourself or something to share.

COMING BY PUBLIC TRANSIT?
Plan to arrive at Honoré-Beaugrand Metro before 10:30am, so you can take bus 185 East and get to the abri soleil/sun shelter where we will be meeting at Parc de la Promenade Bellervie. The bus takes 8 minutes to reach the stop at Rue des Ormeaux and Rue Notre-dame East, and it’s a short walk from there to get to the meeting spot. Here’s the map from Honoré-Beaugrand Metro to the abri soleil/sun shelter.
Please note, the bus to get to the meeting spot only comes every half an hour, so if you miss this bus, you will be late for the baptisms. We will be starting right at 11am.
The park is quite beautiful, so weather-permitting, we encourage you to stick around after the baptisms and enjoy it!
Other things to consider bringing:
snacks or food to share as we celebrate together
a picnic lunch
portable chairs and picnic blankets (thicker ones might be nice because the abri soleil has a concrete floor)
your swim suit if you want to go swimming
Rain gear if it’s raining
