Wednesday, November 1, 2023 - Feast of All Saints
God,
On All Saints Day, we pray for and commemorate all Saints in remembrance of and gratitude for everything the Saints have accomplished. Regardless if they were well-known or not, we pray that their souls are resting in peace in heaven for all eternity. Thank you for the gifts of life, friends, family, teachers, and all the other blessings that you granted. Please bless my school and community and everyone in the world to be happy, healthy, and walk with you. Amen.

Holy Father,
On All Souls Day, we pray for everyone who has faithfully departed. We also pray for the
families who are dealing with the pain and suffering of losing a loved one since this is a difficult time for them. We are appreciative of your eternal care for all souls and we thank you for welcoming them into heaven. Also, I ask if you could please help me keep my neighborhood and earth clean. Our Father, thank you for my Holy Child school that helped me realize that you are always with me. Thank you, Cornelia Connelly, for always watching over us. Amen.
