All Souls Day is probably one of the more important feasts of the Church year, in that it reminds the faithful to pray for all the souls in purgatory, not only our own beloved dead, but especially those most neglected, forgotten, or ignored. The souls in purgatory, while assured of their salvation, can do nothing for themselves, except endure the pain of being purified. It is up to us on earth to help these souls with our prayers and indulgences, which not only benefits the poor souls, but also is of great benefit to the living soul who is praying for them.
