Family Reflection Video: For All the Saints

It’s a glorious day to celebrate the Feast of All Saints! You might ask … who are the saints that we honor today? They are all around us: our parents, sisters and brothers, relatives and friends from every nation of every race and tongue. They are the people who long to see the face of God.Just like us, all saints who have marched into God’s Kingdom endured trials and tribulations. Embracing the Beatitudes we heard in today’s Gospel, they suffered many hardships. But they survived because they knew God would be there to embrace them in the end.

Over dinner tonight with your family, ask who among your loved ones do you consider to be a saint? Why?

As always, thanks for joining us in reflection. I pray that you and your family are willing to trust in the Lord and march into His Salvation.
