    October 10: Blessing of Animals
    Blessing of animals is conducted in remembrance of St. Francis of Assisi’s love for all God’s creatures. On Sunday, October 10th at 10:15 a.m. there will be a blessing offered for all pets and other animals at the parking lot. Please, bring your beloved companions, anything from fish (who must be carried in a bowl) to a horse (who naturally prefers to walk or be carried in a special trailer). Children who for any reason (allergies) cannot have pets are encouraged to bring their stuffed animals. Let this joyful and beautiful ceremony remind us of the sacredness of all life.
    November 1 and 2: All Saints and All Souls
    The Solemnity of All Saints is celebrated in the Catholic Church as a  day of rejoicing with our countless sisters and brothers who have already been saved and now are called Saints. This year it takes place on Monday and Holy Mass will be offered at 7:00 p.m. The following day, Tuesday, we remember all the faithful departed as the Church celebrates All Souls Day. Special Mass for All Departed Parishioners will be celebrated at 7:00 p.m. on Monday, November 2nd. During both these days Fr. Marek will make himself available to those Parishioners who would like him to visit and bless the graves of their beloved deceased. To schedule such a visit, please call the Rectory.

    Tuesdays in November: Masses for Deceased
    The month of November is a special time when we remember our deceased family members and friends.  One of the ways to express our love for them is to offer a Holy Mass for his or her intention. In our Parish there will be a series of five (5) Masses offered every Tuesday in November at 7:00 p.m. for the souls of those departed whose names you wish to provide us with. If you are interested in having these 4 Masses offered for your deceased loved ones, please pick up a special envelope at the side entrance to the church or in the parish office and return it with the names of your beloved deceased.

    November 14: Fall Festival
