All Souls Day Mass Invitation

Fr. Ubel and I would like to extend a special invitation to all Saint Agnes School families to attend this year’s Requiem Mass on All Souls Day, Monday, November 2 at 6:30 p.m. The Mass features a beloved musical masterpiece by the world-renowned composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. But this year, it is particularly special because Saint Agnes is privileged to welcome Kurt Cardinal Koch, Prefect of the Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity as the celebrant.

A light dessert reception sponsored by the parish Altar and Rosary Society follows immediately after Mass (approximately 8:15 p.m.) in the school Commons, where you will have a chance to greet the Cardinal. If you have never experienced this Mass of our beloved dead with this powerful musical accompaniment, we hope you may be able to do so this year.

Coming Soon: All-School Raffle



The all-school raffle will launch in just a few weeks! Please consider volunteering your time to help stuff envelopes or count on collection days. Follow the link below for dates and times.
