On this All Hallows’ Eve, what might it look like to center our humanity? To let this day not be an interruption in our real, important lives and work of justice and love—but an expression of it? On this day when children dress up as monsters (and heroes) and we offer them sweets, what would it look like to allow it to be an expression of honoring each other’s humanity? To let these costumes be a visual for how we can tend to go through our days and weeks, encountering others (scary or silly or made-up-gorgeous), but still deeply human inside it all?

Who are the ones you tend to see as monsters or villains in the story, even if you’d never say it that way? What would it be to let them, too, be human in this moment? To offer them sweetness and kindness as they pass through your small space in this world? Even in the midst of all the difficult realities surrounding us, how might you lean into love and honor—for your own self (in whatever costume *you* tend to wear in your life) and for other beloved human ones (Yes, even him. Yes, even her.), even if you still cannot agree with them on so many things? What is God inviting you to *this* day?

#sotd

St. Jude Thaddeus (1st c.) was a blood relative of Jesus Christ and one of his Twelve Apostles. He was known for his preaching, healing, exorcisms, and his appearance was said to have closely matched that of Jesus’. He is the patron of impossible causes, desperate situations, and hospitals. He also wrote the book of the Bible that bears his name. St. Simon the Zealot (1st c.) was also one of Jesus’ Twelve Apostles, but one of the most obscure. He earned his name for being zealous for the honor of Jesus, showing a holy indignation towards those who claimed Christ with their lips while dishonoring him with their manner of life. After the Ascension of Jesus, towards the end of his life, it is believed that St. Simon joined St. Jude to preach the Gospel in Persia, where they were both martyred in 65 A.D. St. Simon the Zealot and St. Jude Thaddeus share a feast day on October 28th.

#sotd

St. Anthony Mary Claret (1807–1870) was born in Spain, the fifth of eleven children, the same year Napoleon invaded the country. He took up his father’s trade of weaving before entering the priesthood. He served as a parish priest with a missionary’s zeal for the salvation of souls. He often preached multiple sermons in a single day, traveled to preach parish missions and retreats for the clergy, and heard confessions for hours on end. His labors were rewarded by many people returning to a fervent practice of the Catholic faith, especially as a result of his meek and gentle manner. He was made Archbishop of Santiago and sent to Cuba from 1849-1857. His great reforms of the neglected diocese, both ecclesiastically and socially, were so sweeping and effective that his life was threatened. He was recalled back to Spain as confessor to the queen, where his tireless and fruitful priestly work continued. To increase his apostolic efforts he founded the Missionary Sons of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, known today as the Claretians. He also founded a major Catholic publisher in Spain, and wrote or published hundreds of books. He was so opposed in his efforts that he was severely persecuted and eventually exiled to Paris, along with the Spanish queen, by revolutionary enemies of religion. He took part in the First Vatican Council, his wisdom and sanctity being evident to all, before suffering a stroke and dying in exile in France. During his life St. Anthony Marie Claret had the gift of prophesy and reading of consciences, in addition to performing many miracles. A resplendent light was also observed to shine from his face as he offered the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. His feast day is October 24th.
