As November – the Month of Souls – comes to a close, Archbishop Smith speaks about the Church’s teaching on praying for the dead, indulgences, purgatory and the importance of the ministry that our Catholic cemeteries offer. On last week’s episode, Archbishop Smith spoke about Advent as a season of repentance, and this week we discuss how we can offer up our penance for those who have died before us. 

Shownotes:

• Our Catholic Cemeteries, Archdiocese of Edmonton 
• The Catechism of the Catholic Church on purgatory
