Paragraph 5. THE COMMUNION OF SAINTS
956
The intercession of the saints. “Being more closely united to Christ,
those who dwell in heaven fix the whole Church more firmly in holiness…. They
do not cease to intercede with the Father for us, as they proffer the merits
which they acquired on earth through the one mediator between God and men,
Christ Jesus…. So by their fraternal concern is our weakness greatly
helped.”493
