Rev. Edwin Gonsalves comes to us with a profound love for Christ, a deep commitment to God’s people, and more than 25 years of faithful service in the Archdiocese of Toronto.
Born in Mumbai, India, he was ordained to the priesthood in 1999 and has since served in a range of pastoral and leadership roles—including Associate Pastor at St. Elizabeth Seton Parish in Newmarket 1999-2003, Pastor at St. Joseph the Worker Parish in Oshawa 2003-2005, Director at the Office of Catholic Youth Toronto 2005-2008, Pastor at St. Barnabas Parish, Scarborough 2008-2014 and most recently as Rector of St. Augustine’s Seminary 2014-2025.
After a more than a decade of forming and mentoring future priests, Fr. Edwin now begins his ministry among us with a spirit of dedication and pastoral care.
Let us warmly welcome Fr. Edwin to our parish community and keep him in our hearts and prayers as he leads us forward with humility, wisdom, and joy.
