The Archdiocese of Los Angeles’ Office for Divine Worship has published guidelines to make clear which days of obligation Catholics should adhere to as All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day approach.
The confusion stems from two holy days of obligations being observed near other popular holidays and how they’re celebrated.
Here’s how it breaks down:
Friday, Nov. 1, Solemnity of All Saints (holy day of obligation)
All Saints’ Day can be celebrated two ways:
- At any Mass on that day, Nov. 1; or
- During any vigil Mass after 4 p.m. the evening before, which is Halloween, Oct. 31
