We read in the Bible: “It is therefore a holy and wholesome thought to pray for the dead, that they may be loosed from sins.” (2Maccabess 12:46). Our Catholic tradition, along with scripture, has always taught about the importance of praying for the dead in order to relieve their sufferings and to help them reach their heavenly home more quickly.

The saints themselves teach us the importance of praying for those who have died. May we follow their example and pray for those who have died: our family memebers, friends, and for those who have no one to pray for them. They certainly pray for you in gratitude for the charity you have shown towards them.

“We must empty purgatory with our prayers!” -Padre Pio
