I've never heard of anything by this name, but I too am keen to know what
it could be. The only thing I could guess might be the feast of all
saints.
Perhaps some of our members who are not native English speakers could
think about whether their language renders 'all saints' in a way that
might translate to 'feast of holiness'. If this is the case, please let us
know!
