FEAST OF ALL SAINTS Next Sunday, 1st November the Church celebrates the Feast of All
Saints (in old English 'All Hallows' - from which the term 'Halloween' originates - the Eve of All
Hallows). The Feast honours the triumph of God's grace in the lives of all those who are now in
heaven.
ALL SOULS DAY is celebrated on the following day, Monday, 2nd November. Here we pray for
all who have died in Gods grace and friendship, but may still need our prayers as they prepare
to enter into the fullness of heaven. This is why we pray and offer Masses for our deceased
relatives and friends during the month of November in particular.
WELCOMERS needed for the 9.45am Mass to greet Parishioners and to give out Mass and
Hymn books.

TOM OCONNELL RIP Tony OConnell, son of Tom, who was a well known parishioner at Our
Lady of Peace for many decades, has written and is sad to report the passing of his father. Tom
was one of the group of men who laid the foundation stone of the Church back in the 1960s, he
served with the Knights of Saint Columba in Slough throughout his adult life and eventually held
the position as Grand Knight. He was also a Governor at Our Lady of Peace School into his
early eighties when dementia started to take its toll. He was 95 years old when he died at a Care
Home near Market Harborough on 17th October. A Mass will be held for him in Market
Harborough on Wednesday, 28th October. Any messages of condolence from those who knew
Tom may be sent to the undertakers:- Mr Chris Stamp, J Stamp & Sons, 'The Chestnuts', 15
Kettering Road, Market Harborough, LE16 8AN. or by email to chris@jstampandsons.co.uk with
