We are reminded that prayer for the Holy Souls in Purgatory is important and having Masses offered is the best aid we can give them. Hope is critical for us despite all the difficulties we face individually and collectively. The parable of the mustard seed teaches us to have trust in God’s omnipotence which will draw tremendous results from the smallest beginnings.

Sermon From
All Souls Day 2013
This beautiful Mass for the Holy Souls in Purgatory has its own sequence entitled “Dies Irae” which means the Day of Wrath. It is a warning to the living of the judgments of God but ends with hope of happiness in heaven. Today is proof that the debt for our forgiven sins can be removed and that Divine Love has in fact created Purgatory for that purpose. Obstacles still persist in the soul after death and impede our entrance into glory. These can and will be removed by a purification that severs souls from anything that still holds them from ascending. What do non-Catholics do in the face of death? Our consoling doctrine can teach them about God’s merciful love.

Conference On Purgatory
1st Friday November 2012
The Holy Souls in Purgatory experience eviternity, or what is called discontinuous time, which is that time which measures the change in a soul. God lives in a reality independent of time, and one might say that the souls in Purgatory live in a reality between time and eternity. If one dies without being completely prepared, the presence of God would be too intense for the soul to endure. It must first be purified completely before seeing God, and this is the reason for Purgatory. The joy experienced in Purgatory is like the joy of Heaven amidst suffering.
