Homily for the Feast of All Souls

Today we celebrate the Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed (or the Feast of All Souls), a day when we remember those we have known in life, who have died. The whole month of November is especially dedicated to remembering our departed loved ones. This is a prayerful remembering, keeping their memory in our hearts, while we continue on our earthly journey.

We commend all who, by their passing, have entered eternity are gone ahead of us to God, and we acknowledge our hope that they, in some way, continue with us on our journey of life

Today, we entrust them all to God and pray that we will see them again, when we, too, cross over to eternity. +
