Novena for the Dead. In November, the parish will offer nine Masses for the repose of the soul of our parishioners as well as their friends, family, and benefactors. Envelopes are now available in the vestibule – submitted names will be placed in a cloth envelope that is kept on the gradine of the altar for the duration of November.

Women’s Recollection. We will be hosting a day of recollection for the women of the parish on Sat, Nov 11. Registration forms for the recollection are available in the parish bookstore and office.

Marriage Workshop. On Sat, Jan 27, after the noon Mass, Fr Curtis will be providing an afternoon workshop for marriage. There will be three conferences on the following topics: weighing the options for education; difference modes of fathers and mothers relating to children; the hierarchy of the family and the virtuous exercise of authority; the different vulnerabilities of husbands and wives in marriage; and others, also question and answer.

Some of the young adult ladies of the parish have graciously agreed to provide childcare, with some organized activities, on the classroom side of the property for younger children during the Marriage Workshop.
