The Church Triumphant, the unseen counterpart of the One Holy Catholic Apostolic Church visible here on earth – composed of our friends, all saints and martyrs – is a gift from God.

Comprising one Church, visible and invisible, tangible and mystical, we look to these our triumphant friends, our Fathers of the faith, our cloud of witnesses (Heb 12:1) , to pray for us to the Lord our God as we journey through the rough terrains of life.

Lord, have mercy;
Christ have mercy;
Lord, have mercy;
Christ, hear us.
