St. Gertrude says: “Praise be to Jesus.”

“I have come in support of your smallest sacrifices and prayers for the poor souls in Purgatory. When you intercede for the suffering souls, you are co-operating with the Blessed Mother, for She holds a zeal in Her Heart for each soul's release.”

St. Gertrude says: “Praise be to Jesus.”

“I remind you, dear sister, to pray daily, as you have been, for the poor souls in Purgatory. There are millions imprisoned there who never believed in Purgatory, but who now suffer greatly. No one prays for them. Many are thought to be in Heaven.”

“In the Protestant world and in other religions as well, if a person led a relatively decent life, it is presumed he went to Heaven upon death. Most often, this is not the case.”

“It is a spiritual strength to pray and sacrifice for these poor souls who, in return, pray for you. None of your intentions escape them.”

St. Gertrude says: “Praise be to Jesus.”

“I have come to tell you this. The more influence a person has over souls, the more demons Satan assigns to him. Pray for all in leadership roles.”

St. Gertrude says: “Praise be to Jesus.”

“I am sent to tell you that those who do not pursue and welcome self-knowledge as to their imperfections in Holy Love spend a much longer time in Purgatory. The heart of the soul must be open to the grace of self-conviction in order to be perfected in love. Therefore, it remains very much a matter of free will how much time the soul lingers in Purgatory.”

“The greatest trial of the poor souls is not the flames but their separation from Jesus. In Purgatory, the soul experiences such a love for Jesus' Presence – all else seems unimportant.”

“The poor souls cry out for your prayers and assistance. Offer any inconvenience and pain for these souls whose sufferings are untold.”

Read 1 Timothy 4:7-9 *

Have nothing to do with profane myths but train yourself in a life of piety

But avoid foolish and old wives' fables: and exercise thyself unto godliness. For bodily exercise is profitable to little: but godliness is profitable to all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come. A faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.
