Summary

This week we return to our series: The ABC's of the Catholic Faith. We are on the letter I, which is for INDULGENCE. Indulgences have had a long (and complicated) history in the Catholic Church, so this week we aim to clarify what an indulgence is...and also what it is not!

+MONDAY: The difference between temporal punishment and eternal punishment.

+TUESDAY: What an indulgence IS NOT.

+WEDNESDAY: What an indulgence IS.

+THURSDAY: Types of Indulgences

+FRIDAY: How to earn an Indulgence

All of November we will be learning the St. Gertrude Prayer for the souls in Purgatory. Head here for the words: https://www.praymorenovenas.com/prayer-st-gertrude-great-souls-purgatory

Today is Friday, November 1st, 2020.

0:29.0

Today is also a great feast day, a solemnity.

0:33.0

It is something that all of us who have a patron saint can celebrate.

0:39.1

All of us who are Catholic have been celebrating for over a century. Today is All Saints Day. Now, All Saints Day has a
