November has a bit of something for everyone at Sacred Heart Parish. We start right off with All Saints Day, November 1 with Mass at 8 a.m. All Souls Day is on Sunday to commemorate our beloved dead. The names of the deceased of our parish family since last November will be listed on the parish bulletin the first weekend of the month. They will also be remembered in an Evening Prayer of Remembrance on Monday, November 3 beginning at 6 p.m. All are welcome to attend.
The first Saturday is also our Christmas Fair in Father Ted Hall from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Admission is free, food and beverages are available for purchase along with basket raffles, a variety of local crafters and even Santa Claus. Please come and be a part of the festivities.
The month rolls with our Thanksgiving Food Collection. This is our monthly Food Collection on steroids as our Human Needs Committee pulls out all the stops to assist our friends and neighbors have an enjoyable holiday season. Nonperishable food items, grocery gift cards and monetary donations are greatly appreciated!
Back to our prayer life. Join us for Mass on Thanksgiving Morning at 8 a.m. if you are able. The final Sunday of November brings us into the season of Advent. Once again we will hold our “Come Home for Christmas ” program as we pray in a special way for family and friends who are away from the faith but might join us for Christmas and possibly remain in the new year.
You can join us anytime! For more information about all the events at Sacred Heart, visit our website at www.sacredheartct.com.
God bless!
