Fr. Karl's Monthly Newsletter

November 2, 2009

Dear Friends:

November is a very special month in which we remember our departed loved ones and ancestors in faith. In connection with the feasts of All Saints and All Souls, we speak of “Novembering – Remembering”. Again this year we will celebrate a special “Mass of Remembrance” Wednesday, November 11 at 6:30 p.m. Special guests will be the families who have lost a member during the past year. Come and support them and join in the social which follows.

We also remember those who have died throughout the year with the “All Souls Masses” offered twice a month on weekdays. You will find an “All Souls” envelope in this mailing. Please write the names to be included in the mass intentions. Envelopes may be dropped in the Sunday collection or at the parish office.

Again this November, Deacon Dennis Fietz will offer his popular sessions on Funeral Planning. Don’t miss the flier included in this mailing. The sessions are invaluable.

Special Thanks go out for two gifts received this past month. Valentina Wagner’s Estate gave the parish a $2000 Bequest.  An Anonymous Donor gifted the parish with a check for $2,200. Grateful and prayerful thanks to both.

Peace,

Fr. Karl
