November

is the time when we specifically pray for our
departed loved ones and for all the Holy Souls in Purgatory as
we aid them in their journey to be with God. If you write the
names of your deceased loved ones and place this list in the
remembrance box, Mass will be celebrated for them during
November and prayers offered for them at each daily Mass.

Pope Francis has declared Sunday, 19th November to be the
seventh World Day of The Poor with the theme of “Do
not turn your face away from anyone who is poor” (Tobit 4:7).

“When the entire congregation enthusiastically joins in the
responses and hymns at Mass then God is truly praised and
the Eucharistic Sacrifice is worthily offered to the Father.”

Our Rorate Caeli Mass is at 7:15am
in OLW Church on Saturday, 2nd
December. In the dimly lit setting,
the Priests and the faithful prepare
to honour the Incarnation of Jesus
Christ. As Holy Mass proceeds the
readings and prayers speak of the
blessed Virgin who will bear a Son
called Emmanuel and they call
upon all present to open their
heart so that Christ the King can
enter in. If you can assist at this Mass by reading, singing or
distributing hand-candles, please contact the Parish Office.

On Tuesday, 21st November 2023 at 11:30am in our Cathedral
Church, Bishop David will celebrate Mass for the deceased
clergy of our diocese. All are welcome to participate in the
Mass and the following refreshments in the St Thomas Centre.
