On the heels of Halloween parades and trick-or-treating festivities, Catholic schools around the Archdiocese of Newark celebrated the solemnity of All Saints Day. All Saints Day is one of 11 feasts celebrated within the Catholic Church during Autumn.
Schools and faith formation groups celebrated All Saints Day with special Masses, fairs, and even an open house where students dressed as saints. Families and parishioners visited the schools and interviewed the saints of their choice.
