Parish News November 2025

Week 1

November 2nd – November 8th

Together in Faith and Purpose

As we welcome the month of November, we enter a special time dedicated to family and vocations — two beautiful gifts that reflect God’s love at the very heart of our faith.

This new month invites us to look with gratitude at the families that nurture us and the vocations that shape our Church — from parents and grandparents to priests, deacons, and religious men and women who give their lives in service to God’s people.

May we use this time to strengthen the bonds within our own families, pray for those discerning their call, and open our hearts to wherever God may be leading us.

Together, let us continue living our faith through love, service, and joyful witness in our parish and beyond.
