Norms for Indulgences at the Commemoration of All Souls

This indulgence is applicable to the souls of the departed. Confession may be made at any time within the week preceding or the week following 1st November. Holy Communion may be received on any day from 1st – 8th November.
- The faithful who visit a cemetery and pray for the dead may gain a plenary indulgence applicable only to the Holy Souls on the usual conditions once per day from 1st – 8th Nov. The conditions mentioned above apply also for this.
