November 2, 2016: All Souls' Day

I attended a special Mass at Ascension on this evening to remember all those who have passed on from this life.

I couldn't help but notice a theme in the readings:  Though in this life, we encounter the sorrow of death, we have the comforting assurance of Life Eternal, because Jesus Christ lives forever and ever.  Acknowledging Him by faith, we know Him as the One Who raises us up to be with Him forever.
