All Saints Day was Yesterday

Yesterday was All Saints Day - the day we remember the Saints who have gone before us to heaven, and ask them to pray for us. The Mass held at Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary Catholic Church was beautiful. Father Anthony Maes, a good friend of mine, gave a terrific homily, and really got me to thinking about the Saints, both ordinary and extraordinary. He reminded me that we are all "living saints" and are children of God, regardless of any problems we may have in our lives. The Saints were not perfect people - the only perfect person to walk this earth was Jesus, our Lord - they were merely committed to the Lord and His people. Remember this, and have a blessed day. Be the living saint that God made you to be.
