St. John's All Souls Guild offers a monthly Requiem Mass as we seek to fulfill our spiritual work of mercy by praying for the dead and the safe repose of the holy souls in purgatory.

The Requiem Mass and its settings draw their name from the introit of the liturgy, which begins with the words "Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine" (Latin for "Eternal rest grant them, O Lord"), which is cited from 2 Esdras.

The celebration of the Requiem Mass provides our parish with a distinct opportunity for us, our friends, and family. Remember to invite them to join us every month in the Queen of Life Chapel as we pray for the faithful departed.
