ALL SAINTS´S DAY


FOR EVER SOUL
All Saints' Day
In the year 835 AD the Roman Catholic Church made 1st November a church holiday to honour all the saints. This feast day is called All Saints' Day.
All Hallows
All Saints' Day used to be known as All Hallows (Hallow being an old word meaning Saint or Holy Person). The feast day actually started the previous evening, the Eve of All Hallows or Hallowe'en.
Christians remember all the saints
On Saints' Day, Christians remember all 'men of good will' (saints), great ones and forgotten ones, who have died through the ages.
Saints are men and women from all ages and all walks of life, who were outstanding Christians. Some - the martyrs - died for their faith. All of them are honoured by the church.
Hallowtide
All Saints' Day, together with All Souls' Day (2 November) are know collectively as Hallowtide.
1 November 1858 - Victoria proclaimed India's ruler
The East India's Company's long reign over India came to an end when the administration passed to Queen Victoria.
1 November 1993 - The European Union is born.
We have to pray for them!!!
