"When I was in high school, I saw a headline in a Catholic magazine for their November issue celebrating the month of All Souls. The headline was 'All Saints, All Souls, All Month.' This expression always intrigued me. I used to think that the commemoration of the saints and souls was just one more holy day, one more event in the Church calendar that could be 'checked off' and then put aside as we moved on to the next feast.
"As I have gotten older, as I have experienced more life and more death, I realized the power of that simple slogan. . . ."In a recent commentary, Father Jack Kolodziej, OSFS, reflected on how the connection we have with "the saints and souls is something that we should remember all the time - every day, every year.".
