cmotherofpirl Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 THIS should be a three day event. Halloween is the night before All Saints Day , two great reasons to party. Go trick or treating on the eve, then have a campfire with marshmellows and ghost stories. Then get up early attend the All Saints Day Mass then home to a feast. Its a great occasion to have pumpkin pie, apple cider a cake covered with everyone's Saint name.Tell stories why your person became a Saint. The next day All Souls day go to church again. Take a list of all your deceased family and friends and pray for thir souls and light candles for them. Enjoy the liturgical Catholic seasons!

AlterDominicus Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 As much as I want to attend mass more then once in a week I cant, my godmother has a ton of stuff to do, so she is only able to pick me up on Sundays, and I might not be able to even go today cause of my gramma, my family isnt religious/religious, I dont have a license. HOWEVER - I will be on the train to Ann Arbor on All Souls Day, so of course there will be immedite prayers for [b]my[/b] "children" All Saints Day, man I wish I saved my brownie mix, I'll probably write a homily in my blog and myspace, tell the history or something, and wish all the saints a happy All Saints "Feast" Day - Halloween, I havent a clue whats going on that day!!!

homeschoolmom Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Fr. Brian, Do you really want to start something? Okay... I'm trying to use self-control here. Insert your own tasteless zombie, vampire + mass joke here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't really think I would even remotely entertain such an idea do you? Besides, you started it : However, to avoid, even the slightest temptation, I am merely going to keep my mouth shut now...
