Solemnity of All Saints – Sunday, November 1
The Church celebrates the Solemnity of All Saints on November 1st. We celebrate the lives of those who have gone before us and now are fully alive in Christ in heaven - The Church Triumphant. This year, this Holy Day of Obligation falls on a Sunday. We will have our regular Sunday Mass schedule this weekend.
Book of the Departed
The month of November is also dedicated to the Holy Souls in purgatory. During this month, we have the opportunity to pray for those who have gone before us and also take time to remember our own eventual death. The Book of the Departed will be available in the church narthex to enroll the names of their deceased loved ones, who will be prayed for throughout the month. Let us all participate in this corporal work of mercy in praying for the dead.
St. Mary's Market – Thursday, November 5
St. Mary’s Market is a student-led marketplace that will be held on Thursday, November 5th from 4:15–9:15 PM in the Student Center. Stop by and browse around for handmade crafts, baked goods, and faith-inspired items such as rosaries, saint art, and devotional pieces. If you are interested in becoming a vendor for this event, please fill out the form on the St. Mary's website /market.
Made for Worship – Friday, November 6
Join us at the Apostles of the Interior Life sisters’ house on Friday, November 6, from 7:30–10:00 PM for an evening of worship, testimony, and fellowship. In the midst of busy days and full schedules, this is an opportunity to pause, re-center on the Lord, and remember that we’re made to worship Him. This event isn’t for musicians — it’s for any Christian who wants to grow in a posture of praise, men and women alike. Register here!
