Summary: Homily from the Solemnity of All Saints. "They (the saints) have run the race already. They have finished the race already. They know what it is to suffer. They know what it is to struggle. They know what it is to get messed up and to keep running. And they can't run the race for us, but what can they do? They cheer us on. They call us by name. They run behind us and they push us. Because why? Because every single one of them wants nothing more than for you and me to win, to 'persevere in running the race that is set before us, keeping our eyes fixed on Christ.'"
