NOVEMBER – THE MONTH OF REMEMBRANCE The Church has a long tradition of remembering those who have passed on to the love and mercy of God. We do this in a special way on the Feast of All Souls, November 2, and throughout the month of November. Here at St. Patrick’s, we have the Names of the Dead placed in the Sanctuary of the Basilica where they will remain to be remembered throughout the month of November, and at masses throughout the year. The following prayer is recommended throughout this month in private and communal recitation: “Eternal Life grant to them, O Lord. May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.” SAINT PATRICK'S BASILICA CHOIR The Basilica Choir welcomes new members with some music reading skills or experience in 4 part singing, attendance is flexible.
