All Saints & Souls Kids Procession at ALL Masses on Saturday, November 1 & Sunday, November 2
ALL SAINTS & SOULS DAY: All children are invited to join a special procession at the start of Mass, dressed as a Favorite Catholic Saint (like St. Francis, St. Joseph, etc.), or a Loved One who has passed away - someone your family is praying is in Heaven.
All Saints & Souls Kids Procession at ALL Masses on Saturday, November 1 & Sunday, November 2: Children are to gather at the back of the church before Mass begins. When the entrance procession starts the children will process in. As children reach the front of the altar they are to turn and face the congregation. Once Father Michael reaches the front of the altar, they will turn back to facing the altar and bow, then return quietly to sit with their families. At the end of Mass the children will receive a special blessing in thanksgiving for their participation and in honor of the saints they represent.
COSTUME TIPS: Keep it simple! Robes, veils, tunics, crosses, flowers, halos, or a name tag with “St.______” will do! Please avoid costumes that are scary, gory, or that glorify death, witchcraft, the occult, or anything unholy.
