This Monday: All Souls Day Cemetery Visit
Monday, November 2, 2025
4:00pm - 5:00pm (feel free to leave earlier if needed)
St. Mary’s Cemetery, please meet at the Kirkpatrick Street Entrance Prayers at the Cemetery for the faithful departed resting there. After a brief prayer service, children will be given flowers and invited to pray for the people buried at the cemetery and leave a flower for them. Children must be supervised by their parent(s). This is a really peaceful opportunity to reinforce with your children that all faithful we may one day join Christ and all of the saints in heaven! All are welcome.
