The Holy Souls | On Death, Purgatory & True Civilization ~ Fr Armand de Malleray, FSSP

About this sermon

In this powerful and heartfelt sermon, we are reminded that a true mark of civilization is the care we show for the dead. During this Month of the Holy Souls, we reflect on our duty as Catholics to pray for the departed, assist the dying, and uphold the sacred customs of Christian burial. From the importance of calling a priest for the Last Rites, to the beauty of funeral Masses, visiting cemeteries, and offering plenary indulgences—this homily offers timeless guidance on how we can show love and mercy beyond the grave. 📅 This month—and always—let us live and die in the hope of eternal life. “Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them.” 🕰️ Timestamps 00:00 – In the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost 00:32 – The Holy Souls: A Marker of Civilization 01:00 – How Cultures Care for the Dead 02:20 – Calling the Priest Before It’s Too Late 03:30 – The Battle for the Dying Soul 04:30 – The Need for Prayer and Sacraments at Death 05:30 – Community Vigil and Praying for the Dying 06:30 – The Christian Duty to Bury the Dead 08:00 – The Importance of Attending Funerals 09:00 – Funeral Mass vs. Funeral Service 10:30 – Why Cremation Should Be Avoided 11:20 – Canon Law and Catholic Teaching on Burial 12:00 – Four Reasons Cremation Can Undermine Faith 13:14 – The Resurrection of the Body 14:03 – Humility in Returning to Dust 15:00 – Respect for the Sacredness of the Body 16:00 – Relics and the Communion of Saints 16:48 – Christian Symbols in Cemeteries 18:00 – The Sign of the Cross and Christian Tombs 19:00 – Planning a Catholic Funeral with Faith 20:03 – Visiting the Tombs of Loved Ones 21:00 – The Communion of Saints: The Living and the Dead 22:25 – Gaining Plenary Indulgences for the Holy Souls 23:00 – True Civilization: Care for the Dying and the Dead 23:19 – In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost Fr’s new books on the Eucharist & Priests are here: On the Holy Eucharist - https://fraternitypublications.com/product/ego-eimi-it-is-i/ On the sacred Priesthood - http://aroucapress.com/x-ray-of-the-priest & use "Arouca" (it is case sensitive) for 10% off in the Coupon Code Section Near Missed Masses - https://aroucapress.com/near-missed-masses & use "Arouca" (it is case sensitive) for 10% off in the Coupon Code Section Their quarterly magazine Dowry here: https://fssp.co.uk/category/dowry/ Seminary blog: http://fsspwigratzbad.blogspot.com/ #CatholicSermon #HolySouls #AllSoulsDay #CatholicFaith #Purgatory #CatholicChurch #CatholicTeaching #CatholicFuneral #RequiemMass #CatholicTradition #CatholicHomily #CatholicBurial #PrayForTheDead #MonthOfTheHolySouls #EternalRest #CatholicSpirituality #CatholicLife #CatholicDoctrine #FaithAndWorks #CatholicYouTube 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 ▶️ 1.
