[QUOTE="YYC, post: 1064431613, member: 59459"] I heard an interesting story shared by a pastor during the past Sunday sermon about the All Souls Day practice in the Philippines. He related his experiences during his earlier research assignment days in the Philippines. I looked up Wikipedia a bit and found the exact things that he described. [I]"Catholic and Aglipayan Filipinos pay respects to the ancestors on All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day. People gather in graveyards to clean and decorate the family grave as early as All Hallow's Eve, then offer the dead prayers, candles, flowers and sometimes food. More often than not, [B]mourners keep vigil overnight at graves, eating and making merry to pass the time and keep the dead company[/B]."[/I] It resembles the traditional Chinese Qingming Festival or Tomb Sweeping Day. The difference is that these Filipinos are camping at the cemetery overnight while the Chinese (the Malaysian one at least) will stay away from that place as soon as they finish the rituals. I find the Philippines one very interesting and how 'cool' it is to camp overnight at the cemetery. [/QUOTE]
