All Saints and all Souls


November is the month for remembering our loved ones who have gone into eternity and to reflect on the Saints. We talked about purgatory and why we pray for the souls in purgatory and visit the cemetery. I am calling my treat for tonight "ghost in the cemetery". I made dirt pudding, put it in a clear cup and topped it with a peep ghost, and put a paper tomb stone on the spoon. We study the Saints to give us good examples to live by so while the students were enjoying there treat I gave a description of all the Saints that are on display in or around our church. Here is a list of them:
St. Aloysius Gonzaga

St. Isidore

St. Theresa of the Child Jesus

King David

St. James the Greater

St. Rita

Blessed Kateri Tekawitha

St. Anthony of Padua

St. Anne

St. Cecilia

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton

St. Francis of Assisi

St. Louis

The Holy Family

St. Mary

Blessed Mother Theresa

St. Joseph

The Sacred Heart of Jesus

Today is the Feast of St. Martin de Porres so we also talked about him. If you can, go to the cometery to visit and pray for your loved ones.
