All are welcome to bring a memento or photo of your loved one for the Dia de los Muertos altar to be displayed until In November, the "Book of the Dead" will be displayed in the Narthex for you to add the name of loved ones past.
One of our beloved parish customs is that on All Souls’ Day we offer an evening Mass to remember all the loved ones of our parish who have died in the last year. Families of recently deceased loved ones for whom we have prayed at weekend Mass or in a funeral liturgy have been sent letters confirming that their loved one’s name is on the list. If you wish to add a loved one to the list and have not already received a letter, contact Diane Bily no later than Fri., Oct. 23.
