Sanctify time
Every Sunday is the day of Easter celebration. In the liturgical year, the Church commemorates the entire mystery of Christ from the Incarnation to Pentecost and awaits His return.
Sacramentals are sacred signs established by the Church, such as blessings, helping people prepare to receive grace and sanctify various circumstances. They are not identical to the seven sacraments and are not magic spells.
Hope in the face of death
Christian burial practices pray for the deceased, respect the body as a temple of the Holy Spirit, and comfort those grieving with the hope of resurrection.
Popular piety is valuable when it leads to liturgy, Scripture, and a life of charity; superstition or viewing pious gestures as a means of controlling God should be avoided.
Does the rhythm of the liturgical year truly guide my time, or are they just a series of disconnected feast days?
Consider the current liturgical season. Choose a suitable sign, a passage from Scripture, and an act of charity to perform this week.
