All Souls Intentions

 

Dear Friends,

The sight of an evening harvest moon and the crispness of an October morning remind us of the changing seasons and of the world of nature of which we are a modest but important part. The fall colors catch our attention, but their passing glory reminds us of our own fragility and of the treasured accompaniment of family, friends, and, most importantly, a loving God, as we journey forward.

Once again as November approaches we remember our many loved ones who have died. Our hearts moan as we recall the recently departed and others long gone. In our imagination we lift up these precious people to a loving God, expressing our gratitude and appreciation for their presence in our lives, and asking that they be blessed and led to the peace of the Lord’s fond embrace.

Throughout the month of November the Jesuits of St. Ignatius College Preparatory will remember your deceased loved ones when they celebrate the Eucharist on campus. We invite you to fill out the online remembrance card below with the names of these people and return it to us. The cards will rest on the altars of Orradre and Jensen Chapels.

May the Lord bless you and your families during this poignant season.
