Anticipating All Saints Day, All Souls Day, and the Month of November
As the celebrations of All Saints and All Souls Days draw near, we want you to be aware of various ways we will honor these sacred moments and those who have gone before us, marked with the sign of faith.
Again this year, our grade school students, led by Señora Lourain Eggart will decorate a sacred place in the church narthex to honor our dead. Feel free to bring pictures of your deceased loved ones that will be kept on display as we remember them in a most solemn way throughout the month of November. Place these pictures on the writing table near the stone wall and our students will arrange them nicely as All Saint Day approaches. Considering our liturgical celebrations, to allow maximum numbers of Faithful to attend Masses on these days, the Mass schedule will be as follows:
ALL SAINTS DAY – TUESDAY – 1 NOVEMBER
A HOLY DAY OF OBLIGATION
7:00 a.m. Mass – Main Church
9:00 a.m. Mass – Main Church (with our School Community)
6:30 p.m. Mass – Main Church
ALL SOULS DAY – WEDNESDAY – 2 NOVEMBER**
9:00 a.m. Word Service - Main Church, Deacon Shaun Johnson (with our Elementary School Community)
9:30 a.m. Mass – Mount Calvary Cemetery (with our Middle School Community)*
6:30 p.m. Mass – Main Church
(in special memory of those who died since November 2021)
*After the morning Mass is celebrated in the cemetery at 9:30 AM, our grade school community will remain at Mount Calvary to engage in work projects to help prepare our grounds for the winter months.
