Along with the rest of the world, the Catholic faithful in Shillong on Saturday observed All Souls’ Day at the Catholic cemetery in Laitumkhrah. Christians remembered the departed and offered special prayers at their graves. As a mark of remembrance, relatives and friends offered prayers and decorated their loved ones’ graves with candles and flowers. A special Mass service was conducted by Most Rev. Archbishop Victor Lyngdoh at the cemetery. Through prayer, intercession, almsgiving, and visits to cemeteries, Catholics commemorate the poor souls in purgatory and gain indulgences for them.
