All Souls’ Day falls on November 2, just one day after All Saints Day. In some Spanish-speaking countries and communities, All Souls’ Day is the second day of “Día de Los Muertos” celebrations. This holy day celebrates all the faithful departed. 

Officially known as the “Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed,” All Souls’ Day is a day to celebrate, honor, and pray for all those who have died to rest peacefully with God. Many pray for their friends and family who have passed on this day. In Mexico and other Hispanic countries and communities, All Souls’ Day is the second day of the famous “Día de Los Muertos” celebrations.
 

Although it's not a Holy Day of Obligation, Mass attendance is encouraged to pray for our deceased, one of the spiritual works of mercy. Mass times at St. Michael are November 2 at 8 AM and 6 PM. The 6 PM Mass will be followed by the Office of the Dead
