All Souls Day

This is the 3rd day in the Octave of All Saints.  All Souls day was transferred to Monday, Nov 3, because it fell on a Sunday this year.  Unlike the 1962 Missal where the ranking was changed to a 1st Class feast, in the old ranking it was a Duplex which means that  All Saints is commemorated today! 

Visit a cemetery today to gain a plenary indulgence for a Poor Soul.  All you have to do is pray for the dead while there.  An Our Father and Hail Mary is recommended.  Then fulfill the usual conditions of confession, communion and prayers for the traditional intentions of the Holy Father.

Requiescant in pace.  Amen.
