This video documents the Opening Mass of the Association of Vietnamese Clergy and Religious in Canada, held at St. Philip Minh Parish on August 10, 2026. The event served as an occasion for communal prayer, fellowship, and celebration among the clergy, religious, and the local parish community.

Key sections of the event include:

• Liturgical Celebration (0:00 - 43:29): The Mass commemorated the feast of Saint Lawrence, deacon and martyr. The homily (18:00 - 23:10) focused on the concept of service, emphasizing that the true "treasure" of the Church is not material wealth but the people who serve, pray, and offer their daily efforts silently.
• Community Fellowship (44:54 - 55:40): Following the Mass, the gathering transitioned into a formal social event. This portion featured welcoming speeches for the visiting bishops, words of appreciation for the hosting parishioners, and expressions of gratitude for the unity of the association.
• Celebratory Atmosphere (55:41 - 1:02:26): The evening concluded with a shared meal, musical performances, and recognition of significant milestones, such as the anniversaries of the visiting bishops.
