Candles for deceased

Posted : Sep-14-2026

As we approach November—a traditional time of remembrance—we invite you to honour the memory of your beloved family members and friends who have passed away, whether recently or years ago. Lighting a candle is a beautiful way to keep their memory alive in prayer.

For a donation of $10 PER CANDLE, your dedicated tribute will be continuously lit before the altar throughout your chosen week, serving as a constant, glowing symbol of our prayers and enduring affection.

Choose your preferred weekly batch: (Please note: Each weekly batch is limited to 150 candles and 150 corresponding forms for church and fire safety.)

  • Batch 1: October 31 – November 6
  • Batch 2: November 7 – November 13
  • Batch 3: November 14 – November 20
  • Batch 4: November 21 – November 27

Forms are available with the hospitality ministers.

Our parish community will continue to pray for the faithful departed and for the families of our parish throughout the month of November.
