On Tuesday, November 2nd, at 6:30 PM we will gather to prayerfully remember our relatives and friends who have died. In particular we will be aware of those who have died within the past year and they will be called by name. We will also pray for each other, that we may have the grace to face life with courage and with peace.
If you had a loved one’s funeral at Becketin the last twelve months, you will notice that crosses have been placed on a wall over hanging the Welcoming Area, just before entering the church. They will be moved behind the altar for the whole month of November since that is considered the month of remembrance. At the end of November, you will be contacted to take your family’s cross home with you. If you did not have a funeral here in the church, you will not have a cross.
If you had a close relative who died since last November who was NOT buried from our parish, we will remember that person by name on that special night, too. Just call the parish office at 734-981-1333, and leave the name of your relative. We hope you will be able to join us for this beautiful evening liturgy.
May the faith and support of our parish family continue to bring comfort and strength to you and your family in your time of grief.
