Solemnity of All Saints
November 1st
Who Are the Saints?
On All Saints Day, we celebrate and honor all of the saints in heaven. But who are the saints?
The saints are all of the holy people and angels in heaven. They love God with all of their hearts and they have a perfect union with Jesus.
The Church picks some of the saints that are known for us to celebrate. That’s so we can learn about them, pray to them, and become more like them. If we do this, they will help us to grow closer to Jesus.
This is important, because God calls us to be saints too! Turning away from sin and becoming a saint is not easy, but with the help of Jesus and all the saints, it is possible.
All saints, pray for us!
