All Souls’ Day (Nov. 2), is a time to pray for the souls in purgatory and make special sacrifices or give something up on their behalf. You can also visit cemeteries to pray for the dead, lighting candles (if permitted) or bringing flowers to graves. There is an indulgence for those who visit a cemetery and offer certain prayers on this day. Consider praying not just for your family members and friends, but for those who have no one to pray for them.
