Greetings Friends,
This weekend with the celebration of All Saint’s Day on Saturday (not a Holy Day of obligation this year) and All Soul’s Day on Sunday, the Church and we remember family and friends who have entered into eternal life and the Church of Heaven. Some of us may be at a point in our grieving where our memories evoke in us great sadness – sadness because the death of our loved one is so recent, and our emotions so raw. Others of us may now be looking upon many memories with longing for days and times past. And for still others of us, our memories of departed loved ones perhaps brings a smile, a fondness, and gratefulness that this person or people were an important part of our life. No matter where we find ourselves in our remembering, we can take comfort in knowing our God is with us – as companion, as comforter – every step of the way; we are never alone.
On this weekend of remembering, and in all the days ahead, may we more than ever be sustained by our knowing that God is so very deeply in Love with us.
Peace on the Journey.
