Prayer for the deceased

 

In November we pray especially for our deceased Ursuline sisters.

On Saturday afternoon, 2 November we gathered together for prayer at the Cemetery of Verano in Rome, where there are two tombstones of Ursulines. We listened to the words of Saint Angela and the Gospel and recommended to God in prayer all our dear deceased persons.

In particular, we pray to the Divine Mercy for Ursulines of the Roman Union who died in the last year - their names were read out during this small celebration:
