All Saints Day and All Souls Day Schedule
On All Saints Day, our parish feast day and a Holy Day of Obligation, the Mass schedule will be: Vigil Mass at 7pm on October 31, then 6:30am, 9am, 12pm and 7pm on Friday, November 1. Adoration that day will begin after the 9am Mass and will “pause” just before the 12pm Mass, and then continue after the 12pm Mass, concluding with Solemn Vespers (Evening Prayer) and Benediction at 6:30pm.
- 5:30PM – We will celebrate All Saints Parish Feast day with a pre-Mass party (food for sale and festivities). There will be an award for best saint costume – kids are invited to come dressed as a favorite saint!
- 6:30PM – Solemn Vespers w/ Benediction; at the end of vespers we will have a dramatic unveiling of the Saint Portraits in the church.
- 7:00PM – Mass for the Solemnity of All Saints with guest choir Concordi Latitiae; any kids in costume are welcome to be part of the procession.
On All Souls Day, Saturday, November 2, we will have Mass at 8:30am and Confession as usual. Our 4pm Mass will be followed by a procession to the Columbarium where we will pray the Rosary for all the faithful departed, especially those who have a final resting place with us.
All Souls Novena
The Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed, also known as All Souls Day, is just around the corner. We invite you to use the All Souls Novena envelopes in the narthex to list any of your beloved dead whom you would like included in our All Souls Novena of Masses.
Should you choose to include a donation, it will go toward updating and beautifying our liturgical appointments (altar cloths and frontals, candles, Book of the Gospels, communion kneelers, celebrant and deacon chairs, altar server chairs, etc).
Thank you for your generosity and faithfulness!
