FAMILY PRAYER FOR VISITING A CEMETERY ON ALL SOULS' DAY

PRAYERS FOR THE DEAD

“We hold on to our faith in the Communion of Saints and to our oneness with our beloved dead. We believe that death does not totally separate our loved ones from us. In physical death life is changed, not ended... We will set aside time together as a family in our homes and pray for those who have gone ahead of us. It is a good and holy thought to pray for the dead. It would also be good if we can share with the family members our recollections about our beloved dead so that their memory can bind us closer to each other.”

To foster an atmosphere of prayer, an altar may be prepared with a crucifix and a lighted candle as well as pictures of departed loved ones. The head of the family may serve as the prayer leader; other members of the family may serve as readers.

This prayer may also be used during a visit to the cemetery.

The prayer leader may sprinkle holy water on the tomb of the deceased after the Concluding Prayer.

We are also pleased to accept names of your beloved deceased to be remembered at our altar during Holy Mass.

EARLY CHRISTIANS PRAYED FOR THE DECEASED

"This teaching [Purgatory] is also based on the practice of prayer for the dead, already mentioned in Sacred Scripture: 'Therefore [Judas Maccabeus] made atonement for the dead, that they might be delivered from their sin' [2 Macc. 12:46]. From the beginning the Church has honored the memory of the dead and offered prayers in suffrage for them, above all the Eucharistic sacrifice, so that, thus purified, they may attain the beatific vision of God. The Church also commends almsgiving, indulgences, and works of penance undertaken on behalf of the dead."

~ CCC 1032

A priest friend once told me, "if there's no crying babies in church, it means the church is dying, not growing".
