On Nov. 1st, the Catholic Church celebrates the Happy Feast Day of All the Saints. On this day, both the known and the unknown saints are remembered. Let us pray to these beloved saints of ours to keep us always under their special care!
This year, the Feast of All the Saints also falls on the First Friday of November. Please remember to fulfill your First Friday Devotions.
The following day, on Nov. 2, the Catholic Church commemorates All the Holy Souls in Purgatory. These dear souls need our prayers, as this work of mercy helps shorten or ease their time in Purgatory.
30 Days for the Holy Souls:
This year, the Feast of All the Holy Souls falls on the First Saturday of November. Please remember to fulfill your First Saturday Devotions.
