Intentions of the Holy Father for the

month of October 2015
Universal: For Human traffic, the
modern form of slavery, So it can be
eradicated.
Evangelization: That the Christian
communities of Asia can proclaim the
Gospel to those who are still waiting
with a missionary spirit.
The Hallows Eve or Halloween
Announces November with emphasis
in the communion of the Saints,
especially the suffering of the Church
(the poor souls in purgatory) and the
second coming of Christ. This last day
of October in the secular calendar is
when they start the Christmas
preparations in the malls. At the
center of the secular festivities are
demons, witches and devils, but
counterpart Christian in the
communion of Saints. As Christians
who live a 'Catholic culture', we try to
explore the Christian roots of
Halloween parties.
