What is Purgatory? Does it exist? Does it matter? As professor and speaker Dr. Mark Miravalle explains, not only is the doctrine of Purgatory true, and deeply rooted in Sacred Scripture and Tradition, but the practice of offering prayers and sacrifices for the souls of the dead is a critically important responsibility for every member of the Body of Christ—the family of the Church.

PRAYER FOR MERCY FOR THE SOULS IN PURGATORY
Have mercy O gentle Jesus, on the souls detained in purgatory. Thou Who for their ransom didst take upon Thyself our human nature and suffer the most cruel death, pity their sighs and the tears shed when they raise their longing eyes toward Thee; and by virtue of Thy passion, cancel the penalty due to their sins. May Thy Blood, O tender Jesus, Thy Precious Blood, descend into purgatory to solace and refresh those who there languish in captivity. Reach forth Thy hand to them, and lead them into the realms of refreshment, light and peace. Amen. A common perception, especially among Protestants, is that it's pointless to pray for the dead. They often have the misconception that Catholics think that they can pray for dead people out of hell. Which is obviously false. Once you've been judged and the choice is made your final destination is set in eternity. Of course, Catholics pray for the dead because they think that nothing unclean can enter heaven so most people who go to heaven have to go to a place called purgatory first to be cleansed. But is there another reason to pray for the dead, even if purgatory doesn't exist? I think there is. Let me Explain why!

I have a devotion to St. Joseph. As a father, he has a special place in my heart. I have prayed the following prayer daily for 30+ years, he has given two of my daughters religious vocations:
Oh, St. Joseph, whose protection is so great, so prompt, so strong, before the throne of God, I place in thee all my interests and desires. Oh, St. Joseph, do assist me by thy powerful intercession, and obtain for me from thy Divine Son all spiritual blessings, through Jesus Christ, our Lord. So that, having engaged here below thy heavenly power, I may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of fathers. Oh, St. Joseph, I never weary contemplating thee and Jesus asleep in thy arms; I dare not approach while he reposes near thy heart. Press him in my name and kiss his fine head for me and ask him to return the kiss when I draw my dying breath. St. Joseph, patron of departing souls - pray for us. Amen. |
