All Saints Day, celebrated on November 1 in the Roman Catholic Church, is a holy day of obligation, and many other Christians celebrate it too, including Eastern Catholics on the Sunday after Pentecost. On this day, the Church honours all saints, both those formally canonized and others who have attained heaven (see Heb. 12:22-24). These saints are individuals who have lived lives of extraordinary faith and dedication to God, serving as role models for Christians. Whether officially recognized by the Church or not, these saints have played a significant role in spreading Christianity and leading others toward holiness (Matt. 28:18-20) All Souls' Day is a Catholic holy day observed on November 2nd to pray for and remember the souls of the faithful departed, particularly those believed to be in purgatory. On this day, Catholics attend Mass, visit and decorate graves, and offer prayers to help cleanse and perfect the souls of deceased loved ones before they enter heaven. It is part of the Allhallowtide observance, following All Saints' Day on November 1st. All Souls Day Will be celebrated this year on Monday 3rd November There will be Mass at 10am So we can pray for all the dead.

I am looking for Volunteers to move the power-points on during the Sunday Masses, Vigil 4pm, 9.30am & 11am. It is very easy to operate, if we get enough volunteers for each Mass we would put a wee rota together. It would take a wee bit of pressure off me.
