The soul you help out of Purgatory can be someone you love

From the Handbook of Indulgences


Visiting a Church or an Oratory on All Souls Day

A plenary (“full”) indulgence, which is applicable only to the souls in Purgatory is granted to the Christian faithful who devoutly visit a church or an oratory on (November 2nd,) All Souls Day.

Will you not, for love, try today to gain this indulgence?

Requirements for Obtaining a Plenary Indulgence on All Souls Day (Nov. 2nd)

Visit a church and pray for souls in Purgatory

Say one “Our Father” and the “Creed” in the visit to the church

Say one “Our Father” and one “Hail Mary” for the Holy Father’s intentions

Worthily receive Holy Communion (ideally on the same day if you can get to Mass)

Make a sacramental confession within a week of All Souls Day

For a plenary indulgence be free from all attachment to sin, even venial sin (otherwise, the indulgence is partial, not plenary, “full”).

The Church that hosts the seat of national political power is silent about voting Catholic

I may be wrong, so please correct me if you find some facts to the contrary.  But last Sun., I heard nothing about voting Catholic from the homily.  I would bet that none of the parishes in the Archdiocese of Washington, D.C. preached about it either.

And if the archiocesan website is any indication, then we have tons of stories about how Archbishop Wuerl is going be made, sounds like the mob huh "made", made cardinal that is.  But if he will continue to be mum about the pro-abortion Democrats, then he might as well be with the mob as there is no difference with their lack of respect for life.

But don't take my word for it, here's the link http://www.adw.org/home.asp  Let me know, if there is a smidgen of direction on how to vote or how to be a Catholic is the public square.  I may have just missed it.  (Now yes, the vestments of the cardinal are nice.  Whoo-pee-doo.  Will he get the shoes from Mephistopheles?  But I digressed.)

The archdiocese is in a town of Democrats.  So, are they just trying to be nice to Democrats to save their souls i.e. this silence or political correctness is a pastoral approach.  But what if being a Democrat is being anti-Catholic?  Their platform is solidly pro-choice which is a euphemism for pro-abortion. 

So what happens is that people get a perception that it is morally responsible to vote for Democrats because, the Church is silent - disgustingly and traitorously silent if you ask me.

From Voice of America

Iraqi officials say 52 people, including at least 30 worshipers, are dead following a bloody standoff at a Baghdad Christian church.  Iraqi forces stormed the church late Sunday, hours after militants burst into the building, taking more than 100 people inside hostage.  It is not clear how many people were killed by the militants and how many died during the rescue effort. Officials said 70 people were wounded.  Survivors say the militants entered with guns firing and immediately killed one of the priests at point-blank range.
