Although the “cloud of witnesses” referred to in Hebrews describes the faithful who preceded Christ’s birth, the phrase has also come to mean the faithful departed (both recognized saints and unrecognized) who cheer us on from Heaven.

"The witnesses who have preceded us into the kingdom, especially those whom the Church recognizes as saints, share in the living tradition of prayer by the example of their lives, the transmission of their writings, and their prayers today. They contemplate God, praise him and constantly care for those whom they have left on earth. When they entered into the joy of their Master, they were 'put in charge of many things.' Their intercession is their most exalted service to God's plan. We can and should ask them to intercede for us and for the whole world." (CCC 2683)
