Let us pray today for the souls in purgatory, asking God to gather them to Himself  

Reflections on the readings for The Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed  (November 2, 2019): WIS 3:1-9; PS 23:1-3, 3-4, 5, 6; ROM 5:5-11; JN 6:37-40

MISSIO offers “Preaching Mission,” as a homily help, providing connections to mission from the readings of Sundays, Feast Days and Holy Days. 

Today we remember the souls of the Faithful Departed. They are still part of the Church just as we who live on earth and those who are already in God’s presence are members of the Body of Christ.
