On April 17th, His Eminence Archbishop Irénée concelebrated the Hierarchical Divine Liturgy at the parish of St. Benoît of Nursie in Montreal, with Archimandrite Marc Pierre, Priest Dragos Giulea (Rector), Priest Justin Mitchell, and Deacon Nicolas Svetlovsky.

The 25th Anniversary of ordination to the priesthood for Archimandrite Marc (Pierre) was announced. May God grant him many years!

On April 4, 2016, Maconnel and Sons moving company began to prepare the Holy Trinity Russo Orthodox Church to be moved off its foundation. It has recently been discovered that the foundation after 88 years has become defective and is not repairable. The solution required would be to remove the old basement and form a new one. The church has to be lifted and moved so workers can remove the old concrete and place new concrete. The members of the church met on March 27, 2016 and voted in favour of replacing the foundation.
