Director's Message

August 26, 2019

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

I came to Canada in November, 2016 to assist in the ministry at St. Jane Frances de Chantal.

Soon after, I was asked to visit Radio Maria Canada and was presented with the opportunity to assume the position of Editorial Director, which I happily accepted and carried out from July 1, 2017. The past two years at Radio Maria have been a great experience and for that I give credit to the RMC Board members, Executive Committee members, staff, volunteers, listeners and benefactors.

RMC gave me the opportunity to know Our Heavenly Mother more intensely, appreciate Her
more deeply and love Her more profoundly. I feel privileged that I was able to be a disciple of
Mary. It was my confidence in Our Lady that gave me conviction to evangelize through the
media.

In August of this year, I was officially appointed the new pastor of St. Jane Frances de Chantal
and as a result I am unable to hold both positions. Therefore, I regretfully resign my role as
Editorial Director effective August 31, 2019. I have enjoyed my two-year tenure and feel honoured
to have been part of such a supportive team whom I call “family”.

I am confident that Radio Maria Canada will continue to be a strong Catholic media leader.
Please continue to support this worthy ministry.

May Our Blessed Mother keep you all under her protection and may God Bless you all.

Fr. Charles Michael Grech, ofm
Director
