These November days remind us to pray for those who have died .In Schools and in the Community at large we are remembering those who have died in armed conflicts from the First World War to the present day. At our Sunday Mass this will be reflected in the Bidding Prayers , the Preface and the prayers for those who have died. Prayer for Peace is included that reconciliation will follow.

The Word of Life
This provides a scripture text to help you reflect prayerfully.
November Prayer
May the lord support us all the day long
Till the shades lengthen and the evening comes
And the busy world is hushed and the fever of life is done
Then in his mercy may he give us a safe lodging
And a holy rest
And peace at the last. Amen.
