​Prayer for Healing Victims of Abuse 
God of endless love,
Ever caring, ever strong,
Always present, always just;
You gave your only Son
To save us by the blood of his cross.

Gentle Jesus, shepherd of peace.
Join to your own suffering
The pain of all who have been hurt
In body, mind and spirit
By those who betrayed the trust placed in them.

Hear the cries of our brothers and sisters
Who have been gravely harmed,
And the cries of those who love them.
Soothe their restless hearts with hope,
Steady their shaken spirits with faith.
Grant them justice for their cause,
Enlightened by their truth.

Holy Spirit, comforter of hearts,
Heal your people's wounds
And transform brokenness into wholeness.
Grant us the courage and wisdom,
Humility and grace, to act with justice.
Breathe wisdom into our prayers and labors.
Grant that all harmed by abuse may find peace in justice.
We ask this through Christ, our Lord. Amen.

What Is All Saints' Day?

• All Saints' Day recognizes those known to God as saints—not only those canonized by the Catholic church. Therefore, All Saints' Day celebrates all faithful followers of Jesus throughout church history.


• It’s a feast day remembering those who have gone before us, honoring their lives and faithfulness. Believers come together to celebrate continued communion with saints through the ages, recognizing their continued participation in the body of Christ.


• In the Catholic Church, All Saints' Day is considered a holy day of obligation, meaning parishioners are required to attend Mass. If the holy day falls on a Saturday or a Monday, Mass attendance is not required. It’s observed in various ways around the world, with many visiting the gravesides of loved ones.
• When Is All Saints' Day 2024?Using the Western church calendar, Christians observe this feast day on Nov. 1 each year. Those in the Eastern Orthodox Church also have an All Saints' Day, but it’s observed the first Sunday after Pentecost, usually falling between early June and early July.
• What Day Is All Saints' Day 2024?
  
• All Saints' Day is on Friday, Nov. 1, 2024. It’s preceded by All Hallows' Eve on Thursday, Oct. 31, and followed by All Souls' Day on Saturday, Nov. 2.
• What Is All Souls' Day?
  
• All Saints' Day remembers and celebrates all saints, known and unknown. Catholics also observe All Souls' Day, honoring the faithful in Purgatory, who are awaiting full sanctification. It is not a Holy Day of Obligation, but praying for and remembering the departed is encouraged. ​
• For those Protestants who observe All Souls' Day, it commemorates those saints of the church who are now triumphant in heaven and is seen as an optional extension of All Saints' Day. The Eastern Orthodox churches observe several All Souls' Days throughout the year, mostly on Saturdays, to honor the day Jesus rested in the tomb awaiting his resurrection.
