November 2, 2021 - Today we celebrate the Feast of All Souls; a Feast Day on which we lift up the souls of those we love dearly before the Giver of Divine mercy. As we lift up name after name, we are offering them back to God and, at the same time, we see before us our own end. In the twinkling of an eye, at any moment, we may draw our last breath on earth and our soul ascends to be before Christ the King and Righteous Judge of every soul. Our mortality is clearly before us at this blessed Feast. This night we focus on the blessedness and mercy of our mortality; seeing it as both a gift and heavenly weapon to be acknowledged and diligently used daily in our life in Christ our God.
