The '''Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed''', commonly known as All Souls' Day, is the annual [[feast]] in the [[Roman Rite]] dedicated to praying for all the faithful who have died and may be in [[Purgatory]]. Observed on November 2 according to the [[General Roman Calendar]], it immediately follows the [[Solemnity]] of [[All Saints]] on November 1. While not a [[Holy Day of Obligation]], the day emphasizes the Church's duty to intercede for the departed through [[Mass]] and supplication.
