A different look at Parisian cemeteries on All Saints Day (TheMayorEU)

More than 200,000 visitors are expected to pay tribute to dearly departed ones, but in the French capital some of these spots are also famous tourist sites.

It is for example in the Parisian cemeteries outside the walls that we now find hedgehogs, tawny owls and even foxes! Covering an area of 43 hectares, it is to date the largest intramural green space in the capital. That day is thus a good opportunity to visit cemeteries and pay respect to the memory of dead people.

Thoughts on All Saints' Day (Philstar.com)

Pinoys troop to the cemeteries today, Nov. 1, to celebrate All Saints' Day, that Mexicans call Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead).

Besides not having the capability to harm you, they probably just want to send a message, but are unable to articulate it because they no longer have bodies. Inside the wreckage was the body of a woman. Beside the body was a toddler that survived the accident. They are no longer confined to one place; they’re everywhere. Romualdez](https://www.philstar.com/authors/1806590/ambassador-b-romualdez) We may honor them in our hearts for that’s where they are. [BABE’S EYE VIEW FROM WASHINGTON D.C.](https://www.philstar.com/columns/136463/babes-eye-view-washington-dc) Catholics and members of other faiths call these beings guardian angels. That’s the reason Filipinos and Mexicans share some Castilian traits, including indolence. A case in point was a strip of highway in Sierra Nevada, where a naked woman appeared on the roadside. If you feel bad because you can’t go to the “resting places” of your loved ones today, for one reason or the other, you should realize that they will never, ever begrudge your absence. Banish the notion that some of our dead relatives or friends are suffering in the fires of hell due to worldly misdeeds; there’s no such place.

On All Saints' Day, let's remember the littlest saints (America Magazine)

A Reflection for the Solemnity of All Saints, by Jill Rice.

Even though the saints I chose made the impossible decision to remain faithful to God in the face of such torture, they weren’t powerful in any other way. Here’s what they said.](/faith/2022/10/31/catholic-teen-response-church-244049) [In Salem, the witch trials are gone—but the tourists aren’t. The simple faith and powerlessness of saints like these is something I try to remember on All Saints’ Day—they weren’t famous or influential in their time, just like most of us. (It also meant that their stories were nothing if not poorly documented.) But looking back on that, I can either see my need to make things difficult for myself with little information to research, or note the profound statement that my choice of these women makes about Catholic sainthood.

It leads us to Christ, who is the “Crown of all the Saints”. Those who are already with the Lord are our own brothers and sisters, our protectors and intercessors. Those of our brethren who are already in heaven and those of us who are still here on earth, and living in union with God and one another, make up the “Communion of Saints”.
