This Thursday: Pray for Deceased Priests

Fr Z over at WDTPRS has a great idea and one that is so simple we can all do.
This Thursday, November 5th is the first Thursday of the month and that means that during this Year for Priests, we can obtain a plenary indulgence for them under the usual conditions.

Since this is also the octave of All Souls why not tomorrow pray especially for all priests have passed on to their Eternal Reward!

On All Soul’s Day and for a week afterward, a Plenary Indulgence for the Holy Souls is granted for a visit to the cemetery with devotion and prayer for the dead. All through November, you can gain partial indulgence every day you visit the cemetery and pray for the dead.


An example of the Libera. However, the Sisters are doing it on a simple tone. Maybe next year they will have this under their belts!

Here at the monastery the novitiate sisters (and any professed who might want to join them) gather at our cemetery to pray the Libera prayers for our deceased sisters. Many Catholic cemeteries have a " Priests' Plot". Tomorrow might be a good day to visit it and pray for deceased priests!
