Remembrance Book

Due to COVID you will not be able to write the names of your deceased family members and friends in our Remembrance Book. We are using all of the previously added names to fill this year’s book. If you would like to add someone who has died since last November, you can email us at stpiusx@nb.aibn.com and we will add them to the list. The book will be placed on the altar and will be handled only by Msgr. Henneberry.

Prayers Of The Faithful – October 24

For Pope Francis in his prayer for every baptized person that each may work to evangelize their parishes, communities and the whole world by witnessing to the gospel in their lives.
We pray to the Lord.

For Bishop Christian and for each diocese within the Church as we participate in the listening phase of the Synod of Bishops.
We pray to the Lord.

For people persecuted for their faith and those who face death or torture for their Christian faith and for the many who find themselves in conflict with governments because of their religious beliefs concerning the pandemic and vaccination.
We pray to the Lord.

For people providing health care and care to seniors throughout our country and for each person affected by the stresses placed on our hospitals and health care system.
We pray to the Lord.

For families and all the poor who are overwhelmed by the rapid rise of food prices and the increases in rent and home prices.
We pray to the Lord.

For every person in need of our prayer today and for each special intention that you have brought here to this Mass.
We pray to the Lord.

For the faithful departed: Robert Wallace, Doreen Graham, Pat Scanlon, Juan Antonio Serrano, Jerome Jones; and for their families.
We pray to the Lord.
