Each year on the Feast of All Souls, we gather to remember and pray for our loved ones who have gone before us. This year, our Memorial Mass will take place on November 2nd at 7pm.

Though we live in the hope of the resurrection, we also experience the grief of separation on earth. Jesus lost his friend Lazarus and he wept, even knowing he was about to raise Lazarus from the dead. His tears remind us that grief is a sign of great love.

The Feast of All Souls is a chance to remember, with great love, those who have died in this past year. Names of parishioners are included in our Book of Remembrance. If you would like to add the name of a close relative who passed away between Nov 2025 - Nov 2026, you are welcome to submit by emailing memorialmass@annunciation-ottawa.com.

*Please note that the 9am Mass on Nov 2nd is cancelled in preparation for the special evening celebration

Help fill the candy bags with good candy!

Remember the houses that gave the best candy at Halloween? Let’s be that place! All throughout October, you can drop off donations of candy, chocolate, chips, and glow sticks for our Halloween Outreach. Volunteers will pack it all and hand it out on October 31st.

Halloween is the one night a year where strangers come to our door asking for something! As a church, this is an incredible mission opportunity to build community relationships and show the love of Jesus. On October 31, Annunciation sets up a tent on the front lawn and hands out candy, hot chocolate, and popcorn to kids and parents in our neighbourhood. We also make our washrooms available for families and the parking lot open for people to park.

We’ve run this outreach for the last few years with great success. Not only is it a great outreach to our immediate neighbourhood, but it also makes an easy and non-committal invitation to friends\family!

How can you be a part of this Outreach opportunity?

  • All throughout October, you can drop off donations of candy, chocolate, chips, and glow sticks. 
  • Help prep the donated candy in ziplock bags following the 9am mass on Oct 31.
  • Join our set-up, handout, and clean-up teams!
