All Souls Day

 

















A Christian observance dedicated to remembering, praying for, and offering alms or masses for the faithful departed—specifically souls undergoing purification in Purgatory.

All Souls' Day is observed annually on November 2 in Goa, bringing Catholic families together to remember and pray for their departed loved ones. Far from being a somber event, it transforms local church cemeteries into vibrant, peaceful spaces glowing with candlelight and flowers.
