Yet there is a side to our nature that is drawn to thoughts of the end of life at this time of the year. We're beginning the last month of the church year and the second-to-last month of the calendar year. Night falls earlier and earlier each day. Leaves fall from the trees, leaving branches that look dead. Skies are gray. It is November. The Church uses these waning days and darker skies as the season to remind us of the last things. Saturday's feast, the Solemnity of All Saints, is the centerpiece of three days that point to doctrines we proclaim each time we say the Nicene Creed: "We believe in the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body and life everlasting!" And while the days and our hearts may be dark, scripture is bright with the light of faith. John's vision in the book of Revelation reveals dazzling angels and white-robed saints gathered in triumph around the throne of God. This is our hope. sorrowing, lowly, hungry for holiness, merciful, single-hearted, peacemakers, and persecuted. Yesterday we celebrate the triumph of those who already gaze on the face of God. Today we cry out for mercy with those in purgatory, who, like us on earth, still long to see God's face. LOOKING TO THE LAST DAY Today the Church remembers all who have walked the way of Christ and passed from this life. The readings all look to the last day, when we shall all rise from the dead and be reunited. The prophet Daniel announces words of warning and welfare. He cautions us against the judgment to come, but he also comforts us and assures us that all who live a life of virtue and justice will find life eternal. The reading from Romans reminds us that, because of Christ’s passion, death, and resurrection and our entrance into that paschal mystery through baptism, we now share in the new life won by Christ. This recognition has repercussions: we need to live righteously now, that we might rise to life forever with Christ on the last day. This is God's promise. Then in Matthew 5 we read Jesus' formula for saint-making. "You will be blessed," we are told: blessed if we are poor in spirit, In the Gospel Jesus pledges that all the Father has given him will not be lost. All the faithful will be raised to joy and live forever in the presence of God. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., (c) 2007, World Library Publications All rights reserved. www.holyspiritfremont.org 3 Faith and Prayer Liturgy 101: All Souls The solemnity of All Souls comes as a sequel to that of All Saints. Having commemorated all the blessed who enjoy the face of God in their death, we turn our thoughts to the other souls who await the fullness of God’s glory. These are the dead we remember every November 2nd—members of our families, friends, the lonely and forgotten, and public figures who have touched our lives. On this day we pray that God will have mercy on them and grant them the vision of blessedness for which they longed. The liturgy for this day still offers three Masses. When the church created this feast in the middle ages, it became so popular that priests were given the unusual permission to celebrate three Masses that day. The permission remains, as do the separate texts for the Masses, even though not every parish takes advantage of the permission. The readings are drawn from the collection of texts we use for funerals. When the church gathers for prayer on November 2, we still remember the faithful departed, even when it falls on a Sunday. Those who assisted us in life receive assistance from us in their death. This feast celebrates our union with the church in every place and beyond all time .
