Sainte-Anne-des-Pins Mission Pastors

Entre 1883 et 1925, la région située entre Sudbury et Chapleau relève de la paroisse Sainte-Anne-des-Pins de Sudbury. Sainte-Anne-des-Pins établit des églises de mission tout au long de la ligne de chemin de fer du CP entre Sudbury et Chapleau, y compris à Cartier et à Biscotasing. Les prêtres sont peu nombreux, mais ils réussissent à offrir la messe dominicale dans chaque région au moins une fois par mois. Voici une liste des prêtres qui ont desservi la région entre Sudbury et Chapleau.

Sainte-Anne-des-Pins Mission Pastors

Between 1883 and 1925, the area between Sudbury and Chapleau fell under the pastoral care of Sainte-Anne-des-Pins Parish in Sudbury. Sainte-Anne-des-Pins established mission churches all along the CPR rail line between Sudbury and Chapleau, including Cartier and Biscotasing. The number of priests were few, however, they managed to provide Sunday Mass in each area at least once a month. The following is a list of priests that served the area between Sudbury and Chapleau.
