God the Father raised Christ from the dead and exalted him at his right hand. Let us pray to the Father, saying:
Through Christ in glory, watch over your people, Lord.
Righteous Father, you lifted Jesus above the earth through the triumph of the cross,
—may all things be lifted up in him.
Through Christ in glory, watch over your people, Lord.
Through your Son in glory send the Holy Spirit upon the Church,
—that it may be the sacrament of unity for the whole human race.
Through Christ in glory, watch over your people, Lord.
You have brought a new family into being through water and the Holy Spirit,
—keep them faithful to their baptism, and bring them to everlasting life.
Through Christ in glory, watch over your people, Lord.
Through your exalted Son help those in distress, free those in captivity, heal the sick,
—and by your blessings give joy to the world.
Through Christ in glory, watch over your people, Lord.
You nourished our deceased brothers and sisters with the body and blood of the risen Christ,
—raise them up at the last day.
Through Christ in glory, watch over your people, Lord.

The Resurrection of the Body
Saint Paul the Apostle said, “If Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain.” The Resurrection of Our Lord from the dead is the ultimate foundation of the Catholic Faith, “the resurrection of the body,” and “life everlasting” as in our Credo. But what will happen to the bodies of the living and the dead after the Second Coming of Christ? Read this Post to find out what it means to have “glorified bodies” in Heaven.
Act of Spiritual Communion
If you are unable to physically receive Holy Communion, especially if you are under lockdown or in isolation in the midst of this pandemic, make a solemn recitation of this Prayer for Spiritual Communion by Saint Alphonsus Maria de Liguori.
Our aim is to help Catholics strengthen their spiritual life, deepen their understanding of the faith, and intensify their holiness by catechesis and a variety of Catholic information.
