In the Byzantine Catholic tradition, All Souls' Saturdays are observed with a deep sense of reverence and devotion. Unlike the Western tradition, which typically celebrates All Souls' Day on November 2nd, the Byzantine churches commemorate the departed on several All Souls Saturdays throughout the liturgical year, particularly during the time from Meatfare Week to Pentecost Sunday.
