Wis 3: 1-6.9; Ps 26; 1 Cor 15: 51-57.*
Today we remember all members of the Church who have died in Christ. We know that Christ triumphed over death and yet people still die. What is important for us to keep in mind is that although our earthly body may die, our soul does not die. We have been saved by Christ who died for us even though we were still sinners.
On this day when we remember our loved ones who have gone before us, it is also a reminder that whether we like it or not, we will become one with them sooner or later. What to do to avoid going to hell? We must do good. Let us pray, offer Masses, and do the following throughout this month of November.
1) Seeking for plenary indulgence for our loved ones who have died. How to do this?
a.) Visit a cemetery at least one from today until November 08. Pray for the souls in purgatory.
b.) Go for confession and attend Holy Mass; Receive the Eucharist in a state of grace.
c.) Pray for the intentions of the Holy Father.
May the Lord grant them eternal rest.! Amen.
