VISIT OUR CHURCH ON FRIDAY AND
PRAY FOR THE HOLY SOULS
It is an old and treasured custom for Catholics to visit a Catholic Church or Adoration Chapel on the Feast of All Souls. Consequently, our church will be kept open on Friday, November 2nd from 9:00am - 6:00pm for people to come in and visit the Blessed Sacrament in the Tabernacle and say some prayers for the Holy Souls. The building will still have construction going on, and noise abounds, but the ability to visit Our Lord and Savior in the Reserved Blessed Sacrament is strongly encouraged. We have the opportunity to pray for them always, but particularly on their Feast Day, when many are delivered into Paradise by the atoning prayers of the Faithful on Earth.
Pray for relatives and friends and the most in need of intercessory prayer depending on our intercessory prayers for Heaven's sake.

MONTH OF THE HOLY SOULS
Jesus said, "I am the resurrection and the life; whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die."
Each year during the month of November, the Church offers us the opportunity to remember in a special way our deceased relatives and friends. We do this with a firm faith in our future reunion with them forever.
Saint Andrew Catholic School faculty & students would like to offer prayers for the deceased loved ones of our alumni, benefactors, friends, family members and parishioners. We have opened an online form for you to indicate the names of your beloved deceased. We will pray for the Holy Souls of Purgatory during weekly all school Masses, morning prayers, and while attending adoration throughout the month of November. In this way, your remembrance and ours will be made more personal.
Please do not send an offering. This is Saint Andrew Catholic School's gift to you. Thank you for all you do for SAS!
Please

to enter the names of your loved ones.

The Spiritual Life Committee at Saint Andrew Catholic School offers two blessed statues to its families: A statue of Rosa Mystica and an Immaculate Heart of Mary Statue.
Each week (from Wednesday afternoon to the following Wednesday morning) two families will have the opportunity to take these statues home and use them as a source of inspiration, prayer and reflection. The tote bag containing the statue will also have suggested prayers. This special tradition will hopefully be one full of meaning and faith for each of you.
