Remembering Our Departed Loved Ones
November is the Month of All Souls, when we remember and pray for our loved ones who have died. The Diocese of St. Petersburg will be creating a special online photo album to remember those who have passed away, especially those in the past year. Email a photo with their name and a remembrance of six words or less to socialmedia@dosp.org. The album will be posted on November 2, All Souls’ Day. Photos will be added to the album as they are received throughout November.
