Halloween and Walpurgisnacht

To My Readers,

If you are interested in more information on a Catholic view of Halloween, please go to: http://www.fisheaters.com/customstimeafterpentecost12aa.html

Fish Eaters is a website for Catholics and non-Catholics to learn something about Catholic Apologetics. There are many places on the site to explain Catholic Teaching, Customs and Traditions. It is a good starting place for those who don't understand the Catholic view on things. After that, one should seek out a Church in their area to find out about classes on the Faith. Look on the papal website, EWTN website, read the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and, along with that, the Bible. There are many resources out there that are not biased against the Church if someone would like to know more about it.

Divine Mercy Chaplet

This meditative prayer may be prayed using an ordinary rosary. It is normally said at 3pm daily, the traditional time of death of Jesus on the cross, but can be prayed anytime.

Begin with:

Sign of the Cross, Our Father, Hail Mary, and the Apostles Creed.

Next, on the 'Our Father' beads, say:

"Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your dearly beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world."

On the 10 'Hail Mary' beads, say:

"For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world."

Repeat the previous 2 steps until you've completed all five 'decades.'

Then say this prayer 3 times:

"Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world."

End with:

"In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Amen."
