Mass for Suicide Remembrance
September 21, 2025 11:00 AM
Location: St. Ambrose Cathedral, 607 High St, Des Moines, IA 50309
September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month
On Sunday, September 21 at the 11:00 Mass, the St. Ambrose Cathedral will remember those who have been lost to suicide. If you have a loved one whose life has been taken due to suicide, we invite you to this special Mass and to light a candle in their honor.
There will be small candles near the main entrance and a table set up near the front. Before Mass you can take a candle up to the table and light it. We will keep this table set up for the remainder of the month to recognize Suicide Awareness Month.
If you can't attend in-person, the Mass will be livestreamed on Facebook.
If you or someone you know is in crisis, please contact the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline
