All Soul's Day

 


All Saint's Day (Nov. 1) has given way to All Soul's Day (Nov. 2). This is a picture from our prayerwalking last night, it was a cool, cloudy and gloomy evening ending in rain. Today is sunny, windy and cold. Today is the day that Poles go to Mass to have the names of their dead loved ones read by the priest. The hope is that enough prayer and devotion will be made by living family to somehow procure the release of the loved one from purgatory and entrance into heaven. Please pray with us on this day again for the living. Pray that they would set their sights on Christ and what can be accomplished through His sacrifice for their own lives. Pray that many Poles would come to know the living Christ in their lives now!

I prayed as I read this. What a beautiful but sad picture.
