IN NOVEMBER-WE REMEMBER
The month of November can be a difficult and emotional month as we remember family and friends who are no longer with us; and while we remember our deceased during our Holy Soul Masses, it is important that we also remember those who are grieving. Grief is not only for those who have lost a loved one recently and it is an emotion that is different for everyone. As we journey through this month, let us extend kindness, friendship, and compassion to all our bereaved.
Lord, you know those who are hurting right now. Help them remember they are not alone as they grieve. Help them to turn to you when they feel despair and miss those they have lost.
