NOVEMBER is the month that we remember the Holy Souls in Purgatory. 

The Dedication of the Lateran Basilica holds great significance in the Catholic Church. As the cathedral church of Rome, the Lateran Basilica is considered the mother church of all churches worldwide. This annual feast, celebrated on November 9, commemorates the dedication of this historic basilica.

The liturgical events and ceremonies conducted on this day highlight the importance of the Lateran Basilica in the liturgical calendar. With its rich historical background and architectural and artistic significance, the Lateran Basilica continues to be a symbol of spiritual devotion and a testament to the enduring faith of the Catholic community
