Sacred Heart’s annual All Souls’ Day Blessing of the Graves will take place at Canton Cemetery on Sunday, November 4, at 3:00 p.m. Father Mike will begin by conducting a prayer service at the graves of Father Patritius Cogan and Sister Johanna Magenheimer who heroically gave their lives while tending to the sick and dying in the Canton community during the Yellow Fever Epidemic of 1878. The graves of Fr. Cogan and Sr. Johanna are centrally located at Canton Cemetery, parallel with Lyons St. and the area will be marked. All are invited to accompany Fr. Mike as he visits the graves that have been requested for blessing. Flags will be provided for all that wish to mark the graves of their loved ones and will be on a table in the entry of the church beginning Saturday, October 27; please place a flag on the grave(s) that you wish to be blessed. Graves may be family or friends; they need not have been Catholic, or members of Sacred Heart parish.
