November: Month of the Holy Souls
“November is the month of the Holy Souls in Purgatory. The Catechism teaches: “All who die in God’s grace and friendship but still imperfectly purified, are indeed assured of their eternal salvation; but after death, they undergo purification, so as to achieve the holiness necessary to enter the joy of heaven.” (CCC 1030)
Those suffering but hopeful souls whom our prayers assist will someday be in heaven and will pray for us as we journey. And so, November is an ideal time to help the Holy Souls through prayer and acts of love and charity. It’s also a good time to remember that we are sinners and must strengthen our own souls so that we may enter heaven..”
November 1st – All Saints Day
November 2nd – All Souls Day

Mass Intentions
The recommended stipend for a Mass intention is $15. Should an amount more than $15 be given to the parish, the balance will be considered a donation to the parish. Please be clear when asking for a Mass intention if your intention must be a single intention. If no mention of this is made at the time of your request, the intention may be placed with other intentions.
We also request that no more than 3 intentions be requested at a time. We kindly ask you to limit the number of requests per year to 30 for each family. It’s a small parish and we would like to be able to accommodate every family’s request.
Please contact the office – secretary@stmcorkery.caor 613-256-3441 – if you would like to have Mass intentions offered at Mass.
