Today is November 1. The Roman Catholic Church celebrates the All Saints Day and tomorrow is the All Souls Day. As a Catholic country, the Philippines marked this day as one great days for us to celebrate with our love ones that already passed away. And for others, it is also their time to be united with their families.
Today is November 1. I am missing the day. Every year, me and my mom visits my lolo's and lola's grave in Jovellar, but today only my mom would. I will be missing my cousins, tito's and tita's there. This day is always a reunion for us with our relatives on my mom's side.
Today is November 1. Every five o'clock in the afternoon, our choir sings for the mass in the Catholic cemetery in Oas, and after the mass we spend the night together. We visit friends' grave, pray, and then walk when going home. And this is also a day where I see friends that I failed to see for a time.
Today is November 1. I am in the call center now. We have our operations for our campaign. So sad but its ok. I'm with the team anyway. And we will just have ghost hunting in the dorm, just a joke, I'm afraid.
Today is November 1. They say its Catholic holiday and Day of Obligation. According to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_Saints'_Day) the early Christians would celebrate the anniversary of a martyr's death for Christ by serving an All NIght Vigil, and then celebrating the Eucharist over their tomb or the shrine at their place of martyrdom.
Today is November 1. In the Philippines (http://www.wowparadisephilippines.com/all-saints-day.html), Undas as they call it, celbrates this days in an almost festive atmosphere and more of a family reunion. As a Catholic country it is mandatory for a two day vacation and people who were asked to work on this days should receive a special rate wage.
Today is November 1, Saturday. A lot of workers are demanding for holiday since this Catholic holiday falls on weekend this year. For us call center agents serving U.S.A, a non-Catholic country we are required for work today. Are we to receive special wage?
Today is November 1. Let us all pray for our beloved departed ones. May they all rest in peace.
: Eternal rest grant unto them Lord, and let the perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace.
