2 “Lord, grant that I might not so much seek to be loved as to love.” - St. Francis of Assisi November 4, 2018

Dear Mary Star of the Sea Parishioners,

This Month of November we have celebrated All Saints Day, reminding us of the great multitude of Witnesses which have gone before us, Our older Brothers and Sisters in the Faith, who constantly intercede for us before the Throne of Our Almighty Father in Heaven. We honor these great Heroes of history and count on their continued prayers and protection for us and our families.

We also are reminded to pray all month for the Holy Souls those who have gone before us Marked with the Sign of Faith, yet still need our prayers, Holy Masses, and sacrifices so they may continue on to their final Eternal Destination, which is Heaven. I thought it might be good to go over the history of Purgatory and what the Early Fathers taught about its True Existence. Have a Blessed Week. Fr. Harrigan - The Pastor

The Roots of Purgatory

All Christians agree that we won’t be sinning in heaven. Sin and final glorification are utterly incompatible. Therefore, between the sinfulness of this life and the glories of heaven, we must be made pure. Between death and glory there is a purification.

Thus, the Catechism of the Catholic Church states: "All who die in God’s grace and friendship, but still imperfectly purified, are indeed assured of their eternal salvation; but after death they undergo purification, so as to achieve the holiness necessary to enter the joy of heaven. The Church gives the name purgatory to this final purification of the elect, which is entirely different from the punishment of the damned" (CCC 1030–1).

The concept of an after-death purification from sin and the consequences of sin is also stated in the New Testament in passages such as 1 Corinthians 3:11–15 and Matthew 5:25–26, 12:31–32. The doctrine of purgatory, or the final purification, has been part of the true faith since before the time of Christ. The Jews already believed it before the coming of the Messiah, as revealed in the Old Testament (2 Macc. 12:41–45) as well as in other pre-Christian Jewish works, such as one which records that Adam will be in mourning "until the day of dispensing punishment in the last years, when I will turn his sorrow into joy" (The Life of Adam and Eve 46–7). Orthodox Jews to this day believe in the final purification, and for eleven months after the death of a loved one, they pray a prayer called the Mourner’s Kaddish for their loved one’s purification.

Jews, Catholics, and the Eastern Orthodox have always historically proclaimed the reality of the final purification. It was not until the Protestant Reformation in the sixteenth century that anyone denied this doctrine. As the quotes below from the early Church Fathers show, purgatory has been part of the Christian faith from the very beginning.

Some imagine that the Catholic Church has an elaborate doctrine of purgatory worked out, but there are only three essential components of the doctrine: (1) that a purification after death exists, (2) that it involves some kind of pain, and (3) that the purification can be assisted by the prayers and offerings by the living to God. Other ideas, such that purgatory is a particular "place" in the afterlife or that it takes time to accomplish, are speculations rather than doctrines.

The Acts of Paul and Thecla "And after the exhibition, Tryphaena again received her [Thecla]. For her daughter Falconilla had died, and said to her in a dream: ‘Mother, you shall have this stranger Thecla in my place, in order that she may pray concerning me, and that I may be transferred to the place of the righteous’" (Acts of Paul and Thecla [A.D. 160]).

November 4, 2018 “Love is love only when it is lived through the lens of self-sacrifice.” - St. John Paul II 3

The Martyrdom of Perpetua and Felicity “That very night, this was shown to me in a vision: I [Perpetua] saw Dinocrates going out from a gloomy place, where also there were several others, and he was parched and very thirsty, with a filthy countenance and pallid color, and the wound on his face which he had when he died. This Dinocrates had been my brother after the flesh, seven years of age, who died miserably with disease. . . . For him I had made my prayer, and between him and me there was a large interval, so that neither of us could approach to the other . . . and [I] knew that my brother was in suffering. But I trusted that my prayer would bring help to his suffering; and I prayed for him every day until we passed over into the prison of the camp, for we were to fight in the camp-show. Then . . . I made my prayer for my brother day and night, groaning and weeping that he might be granted to me. Then, on the day on which we remained in fetters, this was shown to me: I saw that the place which I had formerly observed to be in gloom was now bright; and Dinocrates, with a clean body well clad, was finding refreshment. . . . [And] he went away from the water to play joyously, after the manner of children, and I awoke. Then I understood that he was translated from the place of punishment" (The Martyrdom of Perpetua and Felicity 2:3–4 [A.D. 202]). Tertullian “We offer sacrifices for the dead on their birthday anniversaries [the date of death—birth into eternal life]" (The Crown 3:3 [A.D. 211]). PRAYER OF ST. GERTRUDE The Prayer of St. Gertrude, below, is one of the most famous of the prayers for souls in purgatory. St. Gertrude the Great was a Benedictine nun and mystic who lived in the 13th century. Our Lord promised her that 1000 souls would be released from purgatory each time it is said devoutly. Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home and within my family. Amen.

Boundaries are really important. Boundaries are critical, for you and for the children in your care. Establishing and maintaining boundaries helps teach children their importance, gives them the tools to establish their own, and to form appropriate and healthy relationships with other adults. You can avoid even a misconception of inappropriate behavior by upholding the boundaries you have established for yourself, allowing you more freedom to care for the children in your life.

Los límites son muy importantes

Los límites son muy importantes, para usted y para los niños que están a su cargo. El establecimiento y mantenimiento de límites ayuda a que los niños entiendan la importancia de los “límites”, los cuales les otorgan herramientas para establecer los suyos y establecer relaciones apropiadas y saludables con otros adultos. Usted puede evitar incluso errores de concepto acerca de un comportamiento inapropiado, manteniendo los límites que ha establecido para usted mismo/a y permitiendo más libertad para cuidar a los niños que están a su alrededor.
