Halloween is Coming

 

Halloween is Coming

In Christianity November is devoted to the dead or the“Month of the Dead”. Celebrations occur November 1st All Saints’ Day, a tribute to all saints, while November 2nd is All Souls’ Day, dedicated to praying for the dead.

All Souls Day (November 2) is a time when we particularly remember those who have died.

Flowers, candles or lanterns are often lit and left burning on the graves and in houses on All Souls’ Eve.

On October 31 people celebrate Halloween, or All Saint’s Eve or All Hallow’s Eve.

Traditionally people believe that the souls of the dead return to their family and speak to their loved ones around this time. That’s why some VISARDS were seen roaming around at our October Weekend and performing some SPOOKY rituals. Woooooo!

Traditionally SOFT have a Fancy Dress Halloween Parade for our children at our Autumn Break!!
