Lent 2026
2026-02-23 22:45:33.022 +0000 UTC
<p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">The season of Lent - the 40 day season of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving - begins on Ash Wednesday and end at sundown on Holy Thursday. It is a period of preparation to celebrate the Lord's Resurrection at Easter. During Lent, we see the Lord in prayer by reading Sacred Scripture, we serve by giving alms, and we practice self-control through fasting. We are called not only to abstain from luxuries during Lent, but to a true inner conversion of heart as we seek to follow Christ's will more faithfully.</span></p><p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">For additional information, visit the following:</span></p><p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.cccb.ca/evangelization-catechesis-catholic-education/video-resources/journey-through-lent/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops</span></a></p><p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><a href="https://formed.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Formed</span></a></p><p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><a href="https://archregina.sk.ca/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Archdiocese of Regina</span></a></p><p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.catholicyyc.ca/blog/deepen-your-lent" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Calgary</span></a></p><p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.scsba.ca/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Saskatchewan Catholic School Boards Association</span></a></p><p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><a href="https://eeparchy.com/2025/03/03/great-lent/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Ukrainian Catholic Eparchy of Edmonton</span></a></p>

Together We Grow in Faith, Hope and Love
January 10, 1958, marked the first meeting of the Board of the Yorkton Catholic School District, which established the youngest Catholic School District in Saskatchewan. Our school was named after St. Mary’s Parochial School (1919-1959). Together with our twin school, St. Alphonsus, construction began in August of 1958 and was completed sufficiently for school opening in September of 1959. The cost of St. Mary’s project at the time was approximately $100,000. September 1, 1959, marked the first day of classes. The enrolment was 171 students in grades 1-8. November 15, 1959, marked the Solemn Blessing and Official Opening. In 1963, there was an addition of 350 square metres. In 1968, there was a second addition of 300 square metres. The 1969-70 school year saw St. Mary’s become a grade 1-6 school. Then in 1970-71, St. Mary’s enrolled its first Kindergarten class.
