The second day of November; a feast day of the Roman Catholic church, on which supplications are made for the souls of the faithful dead.
November 2 is traditionally celebrated as All Souls' Day, a day when we remember and pray for those who are deceased. The Catholic Cemeteries holds an All Souls' Day Mass on the Sunday closest to November 2, which typically draws upwards of 3,000 participants. This Mass is held at Our Lady of Victory Mausoleum in Holy Sepulchre Cemetery on Plains Road in Burlington and is celebrated by Bishop Anthony Tonnos.
(a.k.a. the Day of the Dead), is celebrated yearly on NOV-2. This is a day for prayer and almsgiving in memory of ancestors who have died. Believers pray for the souls of the dead, in an effort to hasten their transition from Purgatory to Heaven. It is primarily observed by Roman Catholics.
a day of supplication for all the souls in purgatory
is a Catholic day to commemorate the faithfully departed or those baptized souls believed to be in purgatory. It is also sometimes called “The Day of the Dead.” The theological doctrine is that upon death souls departing from the body who are not cleansed of sin or have not atoned for past transgressions are barred from being one with God, and the faithful on earth can help them through prayer. It is celebrated on November 2 nd with requiem masses and visits to cemeteries. [ All Souls' Day
All Souls' Day (also the Feast of All Souls, Commemoration of all the Faithful Departed, (from the Latin Commemoratio omnium Fidelium Defunctorum), also called Defuncts' Day in Mexico and Belgium, or Day of the Dead in Italy, is the day set apart in Western Christianity, especially the Roman Catholic Church but to some extent also among Protestants, for the commemoration of the faithful departed. The celebration is based on the doctrine that the souls of the faithful which at death have not been cleansed from venial sins, or have not atoned for past transgressions, cannot attain the beatific vision yet, and that they may be helped to do so by prayer and by the sacrifice of the Mass.
All Souls' Day is the English title for Zaduszki, a film released in 1962, directed by the Polish film director Tadeusz Konwicki.
