FEAST: All Saints (11/1)

Today we joyfully celebrate the members of the Church who, having reached their heavenly home, are safe for all eternity, forever safe from the clutches of the foe and numbered everlastingly among God’s elect.

Who are these splendid SAINTS?

They are wonderfully varied, all having lived upon the earth as we have, who have known our miseries, our difficulties, and our struggles. Some of them are more recognizable as the Church places them before us. The vast majority, however are entirely unknown to us. One thing only endures, for them all:  the love they dared to practice enables them to bask in the delights of unimaginable Glory that makes them eternally happy.

Saints of God, pray for us and pray with us!
