Make this day a special day for the whole family, past and present.

What can God do in your life with one Bible verse a day?

Subscribe to Aleteia's new service and bring Scripture into your morning:
Just one verse each day.

All Souls Day is a time for families to reflect on those loved ones who are no longer with us. While you might find broaching the subject of death a little disconcerting — especially with kids — it’s actually an occasion to not only remember those we loved, but to reaffirm your faith and hope for an eternal life, which can only be a very positive experience!

To help give you some guidance we’ve come up with some activities that are both spiritual and sometimes joyful, to share as a whole family on this special day.
