Say goodbye to green for a while

For the next two Sundays (November 2 and 9), we get feast days (Commemoration of All Soul's and the Feast of the Dedication of the Lateran Basilica) which take precedence over the Sunday's of Ordinary Time.  All Souls allows for white, violet, or black vestments, while St. John Lateran will be white.

But fear not, we'll get one more weekend of green vestments before going to the violet of Advent.

Not with the Extraordinary Rite.

All Souls' Day moves to 11/3. 11/2 will be the 25th/Ordinary.

Correction.

25th Sunday after Pentecost. NOT "Ordinary."

I vote for BLACK! With a rousing sermon about the suffering of purgatory and the final Four Things.

Mostly, just to be contrary.
