FEAST OF ALL SAINTS DAY 

October 11, 2015

Dear Parents/ Guardian,

On Sunday, November 1st is the Solemnity or Feast of All Saints. This is the day the Church honors  the entire Communion of Saints who together sing glory and praise to God the Father. The Feast Day is  a family day of celebration. This year, we ask that your child participates in our celebration by dressing up as a Saint or angel.  This is a great opportunity to talk to your child about their friends in heaven and learn about a specific saint. We also encourage everyone to be creative when choosing a saint to dress up as, or dress up as an angel. Some examples of saints that your child can dress up as are:  Blessed Virgin Mary (under one of her many titles),  Saint Michael,  Saint Therese of Lisieux,  Blessed Mother Teresa,  Saint Francis of Assisi,  Blessed Pope John Paul II,  And so much more!!

The ideas are endless when it comes to choosing a saint! If you need help getting any creative ideas on which saint your child would like to be, you can visit http://catholicicing.com/all-saints-day-costume-ideas/  or www.catholicinspired.com/2010/08/diy-boy-saint-costumes.html for some very wonderful costume ideas of saints. Thank you for your cooperation!

If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me at the above telephone number or email me at stagathaccd@gmail.com.

Yours in Christ,

Mrs. Gizeth Vecchio
