All Saints’ Day is also called Feast of All Saints, Hallowmas, or All Hallows’ Day in the Christian Church. It is a day that commemorates both known and unknown saints who have acquired heaven. The Eastern Churches celebrate the day on the first Sunday after Pentecost. On the other hand, the Western Church observes the day on November 1 every year. Readers should not confuse the day with All Souls’ Day that falls on November 2. The day remembers all those people who have passed away but yet to attain heaven.
