When President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed the new holiday of Thanksgiving in 1863, he intended that it would be a great day of celebration and an opportunity for a country in need of healing to begin reaching out to those in need.

At the kick-off of the holiday season, we start in a very important way: we begin by giving thanks. Often at this point in the year, we get lost in the small family dramas, stresses, annoyances and worries.

OneLife LA is more than an amazing annual event. Every day of the year, we join with our Community Partners to do works of mercy in the community, reaching out to our brothers and sisters in greatest need.

Happy All Saints’ Day! Today’s Feast Day encourages us to take a look back at the holy people who led lives that inspire, challenge and guide us today. One of the wonderful things about sainthood is that we are all called to it.
