Almighty God,

on this All Saints' Day, we celebrate the communion of saints, the vast and glorious company of those who have gone before us in faith and now rejoice in your presence. We give thanks for their lives, their witness, and their prayers. We remember with love and gratitude those we have known who have died in the hope of resurrection. May they rest in peace and light. We also remember all the saints known and unknown, whose names are written in the book of life. Their lives, though diverse, were united by their love for you and their dedication to your service. May their example inspire us to live lives of holiness and faith. Grant us, O Lord, the grace to follow in their footsteps, to live lives pleasing to you, and to one day join them in your eternal glory.

Through Christ our Lord, Amen.
