Who we are
Saanich Peninsula Parish encompasses two churches, Our Lady of the Assumption, and St. Elizabeth of Hungary.
Our Lady of the Assumption came into being as a mission service to the Saanich Native Indians by the Oblates of Mary Immaculate who along with the Brothers of Mary Immaculate continue to have a special devotion to and relationship with the native Indians.
The Saanich Peninsula, known for its peaceful farmland and rich tribal lore, was also the scene of many conflicts among various tribes. The Cowichans, Snohomish, Fort Rupert, Songhees, Salish, Haida, Pauquechin, Tsardip, Tseigurn, Northern Tribes, and others all sought to control what they considered a utopia of climate, beauty and natural resources.
In 1908 Father VanNevel built the first small church on Beacon Avenue. Until that time mass had been celebrated in the home of the Segalerba family. Later, when this first church was destroyed by fire it was replaced by the original St. Elizabeth's on 3rd St under the direction of Reverend Father Scheelen in 1911
Parish Mission Statement
Let us be open accepting individuals, sensitive to change and willing to take courses untraditional, unknown to us. Let us live as examples of God's love.

Light of the World
Jesus, the Light of the World, as we celebrate your birth... may we begin to see the world in the light of understanding you give us. As you chose the lowly, the outcasts, and the poor to receive the greatest news the world had ever known, so may we worship you in meekness of heart. May we also remember our brothers and sisters less fortunate than ourselves in this season of giving. Amen.
