The miracle involved a fetus in the womb that was diagnosed with the fatal condition of fetal hydrops. The parents prayed to Fr. McGivney to intercede to God to save their baby. Their son was saved and is 5 years old. Fr. McGivney's intentions in founding what was to become the Knights of Columbus was a means to prevent Catholic men from entering anti-Catholic secret societies and to be of service and support to widows and orphans. Today, the Knights of Columbus are often remembered for their tootsie roll drives. The Knights are also involved with blood drives, special Olympics, coats for kids, praying the rosary, support of Catholic teachings, morals, and family life. They support religious vocations with financial, moral, and spiritual assistance. There are over 2 million Knights worldwide. Their emphasis is seen in their service and support to the Catholic Church, the community, and the family with the principles of charity, unity, fraternity, and patriotism. S`31, N*7_,7 1, 2020 AYY SJ`’ D1—AYYGYY+J37 This liturgical year the Solemnity of All Saints Day falls on Sunday, November 1. Saturday (October 31), Sunday (November 1) and Monday (November 2) we celebrate the Triduum of Allhallowtide. The word "allhallowtide” was first used in 1471 to describe these 3 days. The word "hallow" is a synonym of saint and holy. During these days we remember those who have died including martyrs, saints and the faithful departed. Solemnities such as Christmas, Easter and Pentecost begin on the eve or vigil of the day of solemnity and so begins the Triduum of Allhallowtide with evening prayer from the Liturgy of the Hours on Saturday, October 31, All Saints Eve (Halloween). Pope Boniface IV (? - 615) rededicated the Roman Pantheon to "St. Mary and all the martyrs in 609. Pope Gregory III (? - 741) at the Oratory on St. Peter's of Rome displayed the relics of the Apostles and all the saints, martyrs, and confessors for veneration of the faithful. In 835 Pope Gregory IV (? - 844) established November 1 as the day of All Saints to be celebrated. It was at the Abbey in Cluny in 998 that St. Odilo of Cluny (962 - 1049) established November 2 as a day for the monks of Cluny to visit the graves of the departed brother monks, pray for the departed faithful and pray especially for those souls in Purgatory. In the early Christian church, it was common to visit the catacombs and burial sites of saints, martyrs, relatives, and other departed souls. It has become a long tradition in the Church to visit the graves of loved ones during the month of November and pray for the departed love ones. All Saints Eve has been celebrated in different cultures with some people wearing masks and costumes to disguise one's identity from the departed believing the veil between the afterlife and the material world thinned during this time. Others fasted and prayed in preparation of All Saints Day. All Saints Day is celebrated with Mass calling to mind all those holy men and women who share in the beatific vision of heaven. In some churches the relics of the saints and martyrs are brought out for veneration by the faithful. And, in other churches which do not possess relics have people dress up as saints and martyrs as part of the day's celebration.

  • Halloween: Not for Followers of Christ ● Halloween Or All Hallow’S Eve
    Halloween: Not For Followers of Christ ● Halloween or All Hallow’s eve. ( lookup Hallowed in Funk and Wagnalls dictionary) ● Eleventh Edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica: “HALLOWE’EN, or All Hallows Eve, ​ ​ the name given to the 31st of October as the vigil of Hallowmas or All Saints’ Day. Though now known as little else but the eve of the Christian festival, Hallowe’en and its formerly attendant ceremonies long antedate Christianity. The two chief characteristics of ancient Hallowe’en were the lighting of bonfires and the belief that of all nights in the year this is the one during wich ghosts and witches are most likely to wander abroad. Now on or about the first of November the Druids held their great autumn festival and lighted fires in honour of the sun god in thanksgiving for the harvest. Further, it was a Druidic belief that on the eve of this festival, Saman [Samhain, or Satan the devil], lord of death, called together the wicked souls that within the past twelve months had been condemned to inhabit the bodies of animals. “Thus it is clear that the main celebrations of Hallowe’en were purely Druidical, and this is further proved by the fact that in parts of Ireland the 31st of October was, and even still is, known as Oidhche Shamhna, “Vigil of Saman.” On the Druidic ceremonies were grafted some of the characteristics of the Roman festival in honour of Pomona held about the first of November, in which nuts and apples, as representing the winter store of fruits, played an important part.

  • The Origins of Halloween
    The origins of Halloween Subject: SESE History Strand: Local Studies Unit: Feasts and Festivals in the Past Samhain It is widely believed that many Halloween traditions originated from an ancient pagan festival celebrated by Celtic people over 2,000 years ago. This festival was called Samhain and was celebrated around the 1st of November. The Samhain festival marked the end of the harvest season. They celebrated the season with bonfires and feasting. All Hallows In the 800's, the Christian church established a new holiday called All Saints' Day. All Saints' Day was also called All Hallows'. Hallow means saint. All Saint's Day or All Hallows is celebrated on the 1st of November. All Hallows Eve The evening before All Hallows' is the 31st of October. This day was known as All Hallows' Eve by the Christian church. It became abbreviated to All Hallow e'en and eventually shortened to Halloween. All Souls' Day The church also added All Souls' Day on the 2nd of November. This day was set aside for people to pray for friends and family who had died. Some people put out food for their ancestors, or they left a lantern burning in the window so that ghosts could find their way home for the night. Allhallowtide Allhallowtide is a time for honoring the saints and praying for the recently departed souls who have yet to reach Heaven. All Hallows Eve - 31st October All Saints' Day - 1st November All Souls' Day - 2nd November Questions: Q1. Where does the word Halloween come from? Q2.

It begins the three-day observance of Allhallowtide, the time in the liturgical year dedicated to remembering the dead, including saints (hallows), martyrs, and all the faithful departed. Today's Halloween customs are also thought to have been influenced by Christian dogma and practices derived from it. Halloween is the evening before the Christian holy days of All Hallows' Day (also known as All Saints' or Hallowmas) on 1 November and All Souls' Day on 2 November, thus giving the holiday on 31 October the full name of All Hallows' Eve (meaning the evening before All Hallows' Day) Since the time of the early Church, major feasts in Christianity (such as Christmas, Easter and Pentecost) had vigils that SK Rory Clark began the night before, as did the feast of All September Knight of the Month Hallows'.
