Description
Christ used several images to speak of the Kingdom of God and of life with Him, who is “not the God of the dead, but of the living: in fact all live for him” (Mk 12:27).
Jesus himself revealed to Saint Gertrude that he takes pleasure in the prayers addressed to him for the souls in purgatory. Saint Catherine of Bologna also wrote: “I have recourse to the souls of the deceased, so that they present my request to the Eternal Father, and I feel that I owe the success of my prayer to their intercession.” Praying for the deceased is within everyone's reach so that these souls intercede for us!
From the earliest times of the Church, living Christians have prayed for their deceased brothers. It was a way of putting fraternal charity into practice. Let us revive this ancient practice in these times where fraternity is undermined in favor of individuality...
This entire divine liturgy will last approximately 30 minutes and will be performed either in our chapel or in Egypt at the monastery of Saint Macarius in Scete.
