WORLD MISSION SUNDAY: Thank you for putting faith and action together by responding generously to the Society for the Propagation of the Faith on World
Mission Sunday. Your generosity will help children at risk, and reach also
the many priests, religious and lay leaders around the world who offer practical, emotional and spiritual care to communities, children and families in desperate need

IN MEMORY OF OUR DEPARTED FAMILY:  The Catholic Church invites us in the month of November to remember all those who have died.  Our Catholic faith encourages us to prepare ourselves for that hour of death by prayer and by living out our faith the best we can.   Let us pray daily to St. Joseph, the Patron Saint of a happy death, to free us from any fear of death.  During November let us remember especially St. James Parishioners who were called by death to their everlasting life since November 2012 and whose funeral and/or burial was in this parish.
