40 Day Prayer For The Faithful Departed
- Prayers for them (Chrysostom, Homilies on 1st Corinthians). The Catechism of the Catholic Church also teaches: Since the faithful departed now being purified are also members of the same communion of saints, one way we can help them is to obtain indulgences for them, so that the temporal punishment due for their sins may be.
- (The faithful who recite prayers or perform other devout exercises in supplication for the faithful departed during the month of November, may gain: an indulgence of 3 years once on each day of the month: a plenary indulgence on the usual conditions, if they perform these devotions daily for the entire month.).
