Also on Tues., Oct. 31, from 8pm until midnight, St. Patrick’s Church in Hampton will be open for Eucharistic Adoration, to help us enter into this holy day.  Feel free to stop in and some point as part of your celebration of Halloween

For All Souls Day on Thurs. Nov. 2 (which is NOT a Holy Day of Obligation), Mass is at 8:30am in Hampton.

In anticipation of this,  we light candles in commemoration and prayer for each of those members of our parish who died in the past year, as November is a month we intentionally pray for the dead, beginning with All Soul’s Day on Nov. 2.
