Document summary

Reflecting on Saint Paul's teaching, Pope Benedict XVI directs believers toward heavenly realities without neglecting daily duties. The Mass remembers Cardinals and Bishops who died during the preceding year as faithful shepherds who lived with this detachment, and offers the Eucharist for their full communion with God, the hope they pursued throughout their lives.
