A different approach in celebrating All Saint\u2019s Day also known as All Hallows\u2019 Day or Feast of All Saints, was done in the Diocesan Shrine and Parish of Our Lady of Aranzazu. The parade of saints, which the original organizers called \u201cMarch of Saints,\u201d presents an alternative way of celebrating one of the most known feast in the Catholic Church.<\/p>\n

Youth and children dressed in costumes depicting their favourite saints gathered in the church early morning of October 31st, Tuesday, to celebrate a mass and parade in the familiar streets near the parochial grounds.<\/p>\n

The parishioners of the Diocesan Shrine composed mainly of the Munting Sambayanang Kristiyano (MSK), Family Life Apostolate, organizations and the students of the Nuestra Se\u00f1ora de Aranzazu Parochial School, paraded in bright colorful costumes to spread a happy atmosphere of commemorating the day of all the saints.<\/p>\n

The parade displayed the exact opposite of the common horrific, violent and bloody scenes that people around the world has been traditionally doing which negates the true spirit of the catholic celebration of remembering the faith and martyrdom of all the church\u2019s faithful departed, both known and unknown.<\/p>\n

All Saint\u2019s Day and All Soul\u2019s Day are both \u201csacred days\u201d and not scary days. Sis. Raquel Ortega \/ PPC Worship<\/strong><\/p>\n
