Local Parishes on ZOOM 

The Upper Room recognizes the need and the search in many faith-filled persons who are restless to experience “more” in their relatioships with God, each other and all of creation. Our team of spiritual directors are eager to serve the spiritual hungers of the People of God within the Archdioceses of Ottawa, Gatineau, Cornwall and Pembroke.

Sr. Rosemary O'Toole: During the Covid-19 pandemic, Sr. Rosemary presented on Zoom or Webex several TALKS on various themes at the invitation of the Knights of Columbus or the Catholic Women's League.
