Masses for the Holy Souls during November
Praying for the dead is a long-standing Christian tradition. In November we particularly remember those who have died. Envelopes have been printed to enable you to place the names of the deceased in them, and hand them in so that they can be included in our Masses for the dead throughout November. A Mass stipend may also be included at your discretion.
