When we pray to Christ, and also ask for the prayers of His Mother Mary and the Saints and holy Angels, we can be sure of their assistance. Indeed, grace pours upon our needy friends, when we intercede for them, just like a torrent of spring water in a fast-flowing river.

The Son of God was willing to descend from heaven, to die amongst sinners, to save us. His Father in Heaven prepared an earthly Mother for Jesus, to give him consolation in His exile; meanwhile, the Father could 'see' all the future saints who would come to him, through Jesus.

Christ was strolling amongst His Saints in Heaven, paying personal attention to each of them, with loving glances and gestures. So it will be for us who celebrate His Resurrection - if we remain faithful to the end.

Christ is with us as we honour His saints.

The great 'height' to which a saintly soul reaches still falls far shot of the infinite 'heights' of the holiness of God, from whom we receive life, and faith and hope.

The Saints in Heaven are well-placed to be able to turn to God and pray for us who still strive for holiness. The Saints are holier and more prayerful than even our kindest and most prayerful friends on earth; and we are wise if we ask for their help.

People in television programmes are pictured 'before' and 'after', as they learn social skills. How many of God's own people strive to grow in charity, courtesy, self-control, knowledge and gratitude, so that they might be at ease, mingling with Saints and Angels in Heaven?

Pope John Paul stands in heaven, stretching out his hand in greeting, as we ask for his help.

Personal prayer, in our 'secret room', is never made alone; through Christ we are present with the whole company of Heaven

When a new saint arrives in Heaven, the whole company greets that soul, with Christ and his mother Mary. Then the new arrival is led through the throng - like a Queen at a garden party - to meet many old friends and companions, and many Saints who have been an inspiration and example.

When a faithful soul enters Heaven, she is made happy by meeting not only Christ and His Mother Mary, but also the particular Saints whose example have helped her.

In a picture of the Court of Heaven, where God the Father reigns in glory, Our Blessed Lady is placed on the steps which lead to the Father's throne. There, she is honoured, as Christ offers His Eternal Sacrifice to the Father, in the Spirit, and also honours the Saints.

All the Saints in Heaven know what people right back to Moses have known, that God wants us to honour our mother and father. It is His Will that we know who our parents are, if possible. It is not His Will that people use immoral reproductive technologies.

The blessed soul who has persevered to the end, in love of Christ and her neighbour, is led by the hand by Christ, to meet the Heavenly friends who are gathered to welcome her into their company. Like them, she now wears a 'wedding garment': a white robe.

The life of God is so awesome and glorious that even the Saints in Heaven, who gaze towards God in wonder, do not fully understand the Holy Trinity. That triune life was only revealed to us because Jesus, the Son of God, descended from Heaven, to tell us of God's love and God's inner life.

The Lord showed me that Heaven is like a circular area full of Divine glory, occupied by the Three Divine Persons and the Angels and Saints. Christ and His holy Mother want to greet new arrivals, which is why each of us needs to ask himself: "Am I ready to enter?"

Each of us can picture himself as standing at the 'edge' of Heaven, near the steps that lead up to Christ and Our Blessed Lady, who are surrounded by the Saints. Each of us can ask: Am I ready to enter? Do I now lead a life of purity, love and peace?

Christ and his Mother, with all the Saints and Angels, live in the glory of Heaven. If we are called 'home', are we ready to enter? Are we holy, pure, and at peace with God and our neighbor?

It is as though Heaven has descended as far as a church sanctuary. We are united in praise with Christ, in our midst, and with the Saints. This is a living memorial of Christ's death: yet the Risen Christ is with us, praising the Father Who sent Him to be our Saviour.
