Octave of All Saints/All Souls
Once again this year at St. Stephen’s we will devote an entire week to celebrate the saints in our lives. In preparation for the Feast of All Saints (which is one of the most important feast days in our Church year), we will be remembering all of the saints in our lives (those whom we have loved and who have shown us something of who God is). We will be offering several opportunities at St. Stephen’s to honor those who have passed on before us to the larger Communion of Saints.+ A list has been placed in the Narthex for you to write the names of your deceased loved ones so they may be remembered at the special Requiem Mass we will celebrate on Wednesday October 29. You can also send any names to Fr. Jamie at apium@aol.com and he will make sure they are remembered at the Requiem Mass and their names placed on the altar on All Saints Sunday.
+ A special altar has once again been placed in the Narthex. Please bring a photograph or other memento of your loved one to be displayed there from October 26 through November 2.
+ Attend the Requiem Mass at 6:00 pm Wednesday Oct. 29 and the All Saints Sunday Mass on November 2.
