IN NOVEMBER, WE REMEMBER
During the month of November we remember in a special way those who have died and we pray for them.
The 1st of November is the Feast of All Saints. On this day we remember all the saints who live at home with God in heaven. Saints are people who showed love for God and love for others during their lives on earth. We learn from their example how to live well and how to love. We can pray to the Saints and ask them to help us to live as Jesus taught us.
During the month of November, but in a special way on the 2nd of November, All Souls Day, we also remember and pray for all those who have died.
On this Friday, 3rd November, at 7pm we have our Annual Mass of Remembrance for those who died during the year, from 1st November, 2022 to November 2023.
The names of those who died will be called out & a family member will be invited to place a light on the Cross of Remembrance and their name on the Tree of Remembrance.

Names of those who died in our Parish during the past year.

A PRAYER FOR MISSIONS
God of Faith,
Your son commanded us to go out and make disciples of all nations.
His Apostles set out on foot: their hearts ablaze with the fire of your Good News.
Today, missionaries continue this work, igniting your love and hope wherever there is hardship, darkness and fear.
We pray that we too will find the courage to join this great mission, in the ways that you call each one of us, to be messengers of love to all we meet.
We ask this through Christ Our Lord.
Amen.
