St. John – St. Paul Catholic Collaborative

Please Join Our Email List to receive important updates from the Collaborative!

In the Catholic liturgical calendar, November is entirely devoted to the deceased. The Church prays for those who have joined the Communion of Saints and for the Souls in Purgatory.

All are invited to enter the names of deceased loved ones in the Book of Remembrance to be held in prayer at all Masses throughout the month. Names can be added to the physical books located near the front doors of St. John Church and near the altar in St. Paul Church.

Names may also be added to our virtual book by clicking here: Add Names to the Book of Remembrance
