To live in hearts we leave behind; Is not to die.

All Souls Day

All Hallow's Eve or Halloween is the day before All Souls Day. This is the day we especially remember our loved ones who have passed away.

We beseech Thee, O Lord, according to Thy loving-kindness,
have mercy upon the soul of Thy handmaiden Roxanna,
and now that she is set free
from the defilements of this mortal flesh,
restore her to her heritage of everlasting salvation.
Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
