Even though most of the Saints canonized and blessed be- atified are Popes, priests, nuns and religious and a few lay people but it does not mean that holiness is not for all of us. Today’s celebration is focused on all the saints of Heaven, but especially on those we could call the lit- tle people of Heaven. These saints could be your de- ceased grandparents, parents, husbands and wives, uncle and aunts, your teachers and other profession- als, friends, children, brothers and sisters, nephews and nieces, cousins and so on and so forth. They did nothing extraordinary but they knew how to love and be good. *********************************** Prayer Request for the Sick Please pray for the following individuals, that they may be healed by the Grace of God: Imelda Sandate, Diane Galindo Salinas, Mary Diane Rios, Michelle Rodriguez, Charlie & Dora Carrasco, David H.
