SOLEMNITY OF ALL SAINTS
November 1, 2026

The month of November (Overview – Calendar) is dedicated to the Holy Souls in Purgatory. The Church commemorates all her faithful children who have departed from this life, but have not yet attained the joys of heaven. St. Paul warns us that we must not be ignorant concerning the dead, nor sorrowful, “even as others who have no hope … For the Lord Himself shall come down from heaven … and the dead who are in Christ shall rise.

Look for the “parish name” that lists the 3 parishes together, as in the image above.

Saints Have a Past; Sinners Have a Future

BY: Fr. Mike Lagrimas

Matthew 5:1-12

Today we honor all the saints. They are our models and heroes in our life as Christians. They give us inspiration and encouragement in our struggle to overcome sins and grow in holiness. The saints were also sinners just like us. But they firmly resolved to turn away from sin and faithfully follow the Lord. If they were able to do it, we also can, by the grace of God.
