“We MUST have an unconditional readiness to change in order to be transformed in Christ.” — Dietrich von Hildebrand

a vigil & 2 days…

Well tomorrow night the kids go trick or treating, and because they love costumes and candy, what kid wouldn’t be excited?!  The challenge for Catholic parents is to keep reminding our children that we are celebrating the eve of All Saint’s Day, and continue the celebration of all the Saints on Nov. 1st.  Many Catholic families are making Saint costumes for the children to wear on All Saint’s Day.  Many will provide a “day off” from home schooling and extra treats, desserts, and decorations.

But that’s not all… as All Soul’s Day is Nov. 2nd, the gears switch from celebration to enduring prayers of hope for all who have died.  I liked this idea for decorating for All Soul’s.
