On this All Souls Day, Father shares a powerful and personal reflection on praying for the faithful departed — and how they also pray for us.

In this homily, he talks about the nightly practice of naming those who have died, from grandparents to parishioners to priests who served before us. He explains the beauty of the Church’s teaching that our prayers assist the dead, and that the souls in purgatory can intercede on our behalf.

You’ll hear stories such as:

The saints and loved ones he asks to intercede each morning
His nightly prayer list of the deceased
The connection between All Saints Day and All Souls Day
The hope we share in eternal life
How the faithful departed — even those we’ve never met — can pray for us today

As we remember the dead throughout November, may we be encouraged to pray for them daily and entrust them to God’s mercy.

“May the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.”
