32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time
The month of November is here with its short days and long dark nights.
The year is dying.
It’s a suitable time to remember our dead,
not with fear and despair,
but in the hope of joining them in eternal life.

A Special Thank-You to all the men (and women) who kept our church grounds looking so nice for the spring, summer and fall. Your hard work is greatly appreciated!
