The Canticle of the Creatures

The Canticle of the Creatures is a hymn of praise written by Saint Francis of Assisi.

All Hallows Eve, All Saints and All Souls Day

Last year I wrote a post on Halloween, All Saints and All Souls Day.

Since it’s that time of year again — can you believe it?! — I’d like to share an updated and improved version of that post.

I’ll explain the connection between these three days and their meaning for Catholics.

In my previous post I listed the five newest saints of the Catholic Church.

These holy men and women, and all the saints, are meant to serve as models for us. They point to our Creator and our ultimate home: heaven.

In honor of the recent canonizations, I’d like to share 10 quotes on heaven.

(And at the end of the post, I have a request for you!)
