Christ rose from the dead and is seated at the right hand of the Father. Let us pray to him, saying:
Lord Jesus, you live for ever; hear our prayer.
Lord, remember all who minister in your service,
— may their holy lives be an example to your people.
Lord Jesus, you live for ever; hear our prayer.
Give to those who govern us the spirit of justice and peace,
— so that the human family may live in harmony.
Lord Jesus, you live for ever; hear our prayer.
Guide our days in the way of salvation,
— and fill the earth with your plenty for the sake of the needy.
Lord Jesus, you live for ever; hear our prayer.
Christ our savior, light of the world, you have called creation from death to life,
— may your light shine for ever on our departed brothers and sisters.
Lord Jesus, you live for ever; hear our prayer.

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.
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.
