This annual observance is a reminder of the need for us to check in with one another and to pray for those who need our support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During October, I will celebrate two Masses for those facing mental health challenges and for those grieving a loved one who died by suicide or from causes related to mental health or substance use. These losses are such tragedies. Let us come together on Sunday, October 4, at 10:30 a.m. at the Cathedral of St. Mary of the Assumption, 327 Second Street in Fall River, or on Saturday, October 24, at 4 p.m. at Corpus Christi Church, 324 Quaker Meeting House Road in East Sandwich in prayer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During each Mass, we will remember loved ones whose names have been submitted for the Book of Remembrance. If you would like to include a name, please send an email to FR-Reception@ccfrdioc.org with \u201cName for Remembrance Book\u201d in the subject line, or call Catholic Charities Diocese of Fall River at 508-674-4681, ext. 1101.
