Pray It!
[For all our departed brothers and sisters]
Merciful Father, hear our prayer and console us.
As we renew our faith in Your Son,
whom You raised from the dead,
strengthen our hope that all our departed brothers and sisters
will share in His resurrection, who lives and reigns
with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen

Do It!
An integral part of the Mexican holiday Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is the celebration of the life of those who have died. As a way to
celebrate All Soul’s Day or the Day of the Dead, take a piece of paper and write down the names of friends or relatives who has died and put the papers at the foot of a cross or crucifix, prayer space or another place of reverence. Invite family members or roommates to share the memories they have of their deceased loved ones. Connect this to the Dia de los Muertos (November 1) or All Soul’s Day (November 2).
