Some people leave an impression on our hearts that time cannot erase. We remember their voices, their laughter, their encouragement, and the countless ways they helped shape our lives. On All Saints Day, we remember those who have gone before us in faith. But we also look forward, considering a promise that changes how we understand both life and death.
