Holy Souls In Purgatory

Jesus my Saviour, I have so often deserved to be cast into hell.
My suffering would be great if I was today, cast away.
I thank you for your patience with me.

My God, I love You above all things and I am heartily sorry for having offended You because You are infinite goodness; I resolve never to offend You again. Grant me the grace of perseverance. Have pity on me and, at the same time, on those blessed souls suffering in Purgatory. Mary, Mother of God, come to their assistance with your powerful intercession.

Say: One Our Father, one Hail Mary

(Share your requests … )

Blessed Souls, I pray for you; I entreat you, who are so dear to God, and who are secure of never losing Him. When you enter His Kingdom, please remember me a miserable sinner, who is in danger of being damned, and of losing God forever. Amen.

… All Holy Souls, May God Pour His Mercy On You …
