With Hallowtide approaching, there’s much to do for Catholic families – costumes, treats, parties, and … Mass! Now is a great time to start preparing for Oct. 31 to Nov. 2 in your home, in your heart, and in your prayers.
Usher in Hallowtide — All Hallow’s Eve, All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day — by gazing at the full moon Friday, Oct. 28. Anyone can view this stirring celestial event as the moon rises at sunset, is visible all night, and is high in the sky around midnight. Want to delve deeper into your love of God and the final frontier? Oct. 28 is also the date of the Vatican Observatory’s Full Moon Meetup for Sacred Space Astronomy, a digital community and online magazine where members share their passion for space and faith while seeking to understand the wonders of the universe.
