Christ is God, blessed for ever. Let us ask him to send the Holy Spirit on all redeemed by his blood, as we say:
Lord, look with favor on those you have redeemed.
Send into the Church the Spirit of unity,
— to remove all dissension, hatred and division.
Lord, look with favor on those you have redeemed.
You freed those possessed by devils,
— free the world from the evils that afflict it.
Lord, look with favor on those you have redeemed.
You prayed, and were led by the Spirit to begin your ministry,
— may priests find in prayer the guidance of the Spirit to perform their duties.
Lord, look with favor on those you have redeemed.
May your Spirit guide all in authority,
— to seek the common good.
Lord, look with favor on those you have redeemed.
You live in the glory of the Father,
— summon into your glory all the departed.
Lord, look with favor on those you have redeemed.

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.
