Highlights of the day will include the Rosary; a Liturgical Procession & Eucharistic Liturgy; a Eucharistic Procession; Youth & Young Adult Praise & Worship; Family Catechesis; and Benediction. The Revival is free, but registration will be required.

We’ll publish more details as they become available.

 

If your child is in grades 1 through 8, and attending a non-Catholic school, they should also attend religious education classes to help them grow in their faith and to prepare them to receive their sacraments.

It’s not too late to register your child. For additional information, or to register your child, contact Kathryn Sisto, Holy Name’s Coordinator of Religious Education, by:

If you are a young person in the 4th grade or higher, Holy Name would like you to consider becoming an Altar Server. Altar Servers have an important role, serving the congregation, the priest and one another during the celebration of
Mass and other Liturgies. By learning to be an Altar Server, you will provide vital assistance to the parish and increase your respect for God’s Church, others, and yourself.

Practice begins Wednesday, October 11 at 3:30 p.m. in the Church. Please contact the Rectory Office by Thursday, October 5 if you are interested.

Join Holy Name Parish for our
