Christmas Baskets

Requested food item for weekend of November 5th/6th: Canned Juice (Apple/Tomato)

In addition to the list distributed last week, Sr. Nickerson asks that you consider adding cookies and pudding to your shopping list for the children that we will be helping this year. There is no set weekend to bring in these items.

We also need cash donations; and these can be placed in the collection at any time. Please mark the envelope “Christmas Baskets”. The entire list of food items is available on the bulletin boards and at HolyTrinitySJ.com/ChristmasBaskets.

Memorial Mass

Our parish Memorial Mass will be held on Wednesday, November 2nd at 7pm. As there was no Memorial Mass held last year, this one will remember those whose funeral liturgies were held at Holy Trinity during 2010 & 2011. A reception will follow in the Family Centre.

Remembrance Candle Ceremony

The tradition of our Church is to remember the holy souls in Purgatory especially during the month of November. On November 5th & 6th in a special Remembrance Candle-lighting Ceremony, everyone will have an opportunity to come forward during Mass to light a candle in memory of the members of their family who have passed on and are presently with God or still on their way to being united with our heavenly Father. It will also be an opportunity to remember those who so courageously and selflessly gave their lives in war so that we may live.

The Book of Remembrance

The book will be located at the front of the Church beginning on Tuesday, November 1st. You are invited to write in the names of your relatives and friends who have died. Your loved ones will be remembered by our Parish during the month of November.
