Purgatory

This year the Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed, All Souls Day, falls on a Sunday. To pray for our beloved dead is to recognize the mercy of God shown to the elect who need to continue their preparations for heaven after death. My homily for this weekend is posted here.

Faithful, or even just thoughtful criticisms are always welcome. Uninformed rudeness to other posters or to the Lord and His Church is not.

I also reserve the right to reject comments promoting things like private revelations and fringe points of view, if it seems to me like they are being presented in a misleading way.

If you raise a disagreement with something I say but I do not respond, please do not feel slighted or insulted, or imagine that this automatically means I disagree or agree with you. It's just that I don't find the comment box to be a constructive medium for certain forms of debate.
