*Remembrance Mass— Lost a loved one since end of October 2024? Join us as we remember those that have passed away in the last year. Invitation letters have been sent out to family members of STFX parishioners who have passed in the last year, but all are welcome. If you’d like a person from outside our parish who has died in the past year to be part of the ceremony (i.e., lighting a candle), please RSVP to Marcus Boelter at 602-703-6556. Due to needing to order food for reception, all those planning to attend need to RSVP to Marcus by this Monday, October 27th.
**Chanted Vespers & Cemetery Blessing— All are invited to prayer for our deceased loved ones at St. Francis Xavier Cemetery (1800 Barton Avenue NW, Buffalo). Attendees should bring a candle to carry as we process through the cemetery as we pray for deceased loved ones.
