All Saints Day

Slideshow
  • all saints

All Saints’ Day is a Christian festival which falls each year on 1st November.  It is a time when Christians remember all of the saints who have died and the wonderful things they have done.Saints are good men and women who followed God and have now died. Some of the saints could heal, some could work miracles and others had the ability to be in two places at once. During All Saint's 2020, we reflected on the lives of St. Nicholas and St. John the Baptist. 

Saint Nicholas climbed up on their roof and dropped gold coins down their chimney, they landed below in the girls' stockings, which were hung by the fire to dry. He did this for three nights in a row. The girls found the money and two of them could now afford to marry. Their father wanted to know who was leaving the money, so the next night he hid behind the chimney. He saw Nicholas!  Remember, Nicholas did not want anyone to know it was him. However, the father wanted everyone to know what a kind and generous man he was. It is from this story that the tradition of having a stocking full of gifts comes from today.

Some people think of Saint John as one of the greatest saints. He baptised people including Jesus, this is why he was given the name John the Baptist. In Puerto Rico (to remember him baptising people in water), between midnight and dawn on June 23rd, people swim in the sea.
