What is celebrated this first day of november

#yoorsnovember As with most celebrations in some countries on November 1, All Saints' Day, it is an eminently religious holiday. In most countries with Christian tradition, the first of November is a day in which the saints, known and unknown are honored.

The proclamation of the feast of All Saints comes from Pope Gregory IV, who in 835 gave instructions for it in the time of Louis, the Pious. While there is no firm story about the origin of the feast of November 1, it is believed that Pope Gregory IV chose this day because it coincided with one of the festivities of the German peoples and during these years, the Church's goal was to eliminate all pagan celebrations.

One of the doubts that arise on a day like this is who can be considered holy. Perhaps one can believe that saint is something much more important than he is, but according to the Catholic Church, to be a saint only one thing must be done: “partake of the holiness of God”. In this regard, it is ensured that being holy “is not rare or exceptional people”. “Saints are the standard operating model for humans,” he says. In fact, being more concrete, he states that in the biblical sense of the word “all believers are holy”.

Although it was Gregory IV who extended this holiday, it was even earlier that it began to celebrate, following the Great Persecution, as is known to the persecution of Diocletian, one of the last persecutions of Christians in the Roman Empire. On this date it is common to go to cemeteries to visit the tombs of loved ones who have died.
