One of my favorite traditions during the Liturgical Year is remembering and praying for the faithful departed during November, particularly through November 1-8. While we can pray every day for those who have died, the Church gives us a special gift that can really unite us with our departed brothers and sisters and feel like we are tangibly helping them. This October 31 marks the one year anniversary of my father’s funeral, with in-laws also bearing the loss of other parents. And lately our news feeds are filled with the loss of many lives, due to wars, terrorism and violent acts. We can’t all go and physically help and comfort these people, but again, the Church illustrates how connected we in the Mystical Body, and we can help spiritually at all times.
