November “Masses for the deceased”

It’s not too late.

There are now sheets at the back of church so that you can list any deceased members of your family and friends.  Each Mass during November we will remember those listed and pray for them.  The basket will remain on the altar through the whole month. Please fold the sheet and place it in the basket on the alter.
