Paróiste Chill Taobhóige Tithe Pobail Ghleann Fhinne agus Leitir Bric All Saints Day - Sunday Year A — November 1st 2026 Thoughts on the Gospel for All Saints Day November 1st 2026 Today the Church commemorates all those persons who lived in friendship with God on their earthly journey and entered through it into his glory.
Some saints are raised to the altars as models of virtue and love for God.
But many others left an im- print of sanctity day after day that perhaps passed unnoticed to human eyes, but that never escaped the attentive and loving eyes of God.
As Monsignor Fernando Ocáriz, Prelate of Opus Dei, said: “All Saints Day is the feast of that quiet and simple sanctity —sanctity without any human splendor —which seems to leave no trace in history, but shines forth before God.
It leaves behind in the world a sowing of Love from which nothing is lost.”For the Gospel of today’s Mass, the liturgy chose the passage of the beatitudes according to Saint Matthew.
Thus it underlines the fact that these are the equivalent of sanctity, both of the sanctity that makes some peo-ple famous, so to speak, and the sanctity that is only fully revealed in heaven.
