November

These posts may help you in your planning for November events. These posts will be revised and supplemented throughout the month.

CCCB Liturgical calendar

Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) continues to post possible homily ideas and prayers of the faithful to help link the Sunday liturgy with the national pastoral initiative for life and family. The proposed texts for the month of November 2021 include suggestions from the 32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time, 7 November, to the 1st Sunday of Advent, 28 November 2021. As usual, the suggestions for homilies and prayers can be easily adapted for family prayer, as well as for personal prayer or for use with other groups or organizations. The texts for the month of October are available on the special Family and Life webpage, under the section “Suggestions for Homilies & Prayers of the Faithful.
