There are many traditions and practices associated with November and the Holy Souls.

Here in Crosshaven we will have our Remembrance Tree and the names of our departed loved ones can be written on a tag and placed on the tree.

We will have our traditional nine-day Novena of Masses and envelopes are available for names to be placed on t he altar so that they are remembered during parish Masses.

On Saturday Nov. 7th a special Remembrance Mass will be celebrated in St. Brigid's Church at 6pm to pray all those whose funeral Mass took place here during the past year.
