Praying for the souls in Purgatory is an ancient practice in the Catholic Church, dating back to the earliest centuries. The Feast of All Souls, and indeed the entire month of November, is set aside especially for this holy act. Although some deny the “middle state” of Purgatory and the need for purification, we find in Sacred Scripture, Tradition, and the immemorial teaching of the Church that these are souls who can benefit from your prayers.

What is the SSPX Podcast?
The SSPX Podcast is produced by Angelus Press, which has as its mission the fortification of traditional Catholics so that they can defend the Faith, and reaching out to those who have not yet found Tradition.
What is the SSPX?
The main goal of the Society of Saint Pius X is to preserve the Catholic Faith in its fullness and purity, to teach its truths, and to diffuse its virtues, especially through the Roman Catholic priesthood.
Authentic spiritual life, the sacraments, and the traditional liturgy are its primary means of bringing this life of grace to souls.
Although the traditional Latin Mass is the most visible and public expression of the work of the Society, we are committed to defending Catholic Tradition in its entirety: all of Catholic doctrine and morals as the Church has always defended them. What people need is the Catholic Faith, without compromise, with all the truth and beauty which accompanies it.
