On Wednesday, November 2, the Catholic Community will celebrate Mass at 12:10pm for the Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed (All Souls).  Faculty, staff, students, family and friends who have died will be especially remembered.  All are welcome.

In the Catholic Tradition, November is the month specially dedicated to the remembrance of friends and loved ones no longer with us, those who have gone home to God.  All members of the Ithaca College Community are invited to write the names of those who have gone before us on the remembrance sheets on the lectern at the entrance to the sanctuary, or before or after Sunday Mass on the tables in the fireplace lounge of Muller Chapel.  During each weekday and Sunday Mass celebrated in November, the binder with the names of loved ones will be placed on the altar in Muller Chapel.

Individuals with disabilities requiring accommodations should contact the Catholic Chaplain at 274-3184 or cmartensen@ithaca.edu  as soon as possible before the event.
