On All Souls’ Day the Church militant on earth prays for all the members of the Church suffering who are being purified in purgatory and are awaiting the day when they will join the company of saints in the glory of heaven. The prayers of the Church on earth combine with those of the saints to aid the release of the poor souls. The offering of Holy Mass is the principal means of charity directed to the faithful departed. Mass for the deceased takes place on Friday 2nd November at 7.00 pm in the Church of St John the Baptist.
