Holy Family Memorial Fund

One of the most important things we can do as Catholics is to pray for our loved ones who have died. We do this at Mass with the Mass intention. However, as we continue to have more requests than mass times available, we are not able to offer masses for everyone as we would like. The Memorial Fund is a good opportunity to help with this situation.
