Sharing in the Glory of Saints

ALL SAINTS DAY
“Today – All Saints' Day – we remember celebrated saints like Mother Teresa, St. Francis of Assisi, and Thomas Aquinas - individuals who have discerned spiritual truth and who did great works. We also honor the saints among us: those who feed the hungry, visit the sick, comfort others, stand guard at a school crossing zone... They give and sustain life. There is a saint in us all.” – Scott Awbrey
“Saints are honored as heirs of God. Let us observe the manner of their lives, people who announced the presence of God. And let us emulate their faith, charity, hope, zeal, and perseverance so that we may also share their glory.” - St John Damascene, seventh century monk
Affirmative prayer: Infinite Presence, I give thanks for the saint in us all, affirming that we each find our unique way to give, serve, and love. I know that the Divine takes pleasure in our inspired living, our saintly actions, and in the sound of our voices. Thank you, God, forever, Amen.
