EIGHTEENTH DAY
Your loved one, whom
God has called to Himself, does not cease to cherish you. Purified in
Purgatory, made more loving by union with God, he continues to be with more
light and strength, all
that he was to you on earth.
Mother of Mercy, thy power is so great that thy Divine Son will refuse thee
nothing. Implore Him,
therefore, to release from the pains of Purgatory, our parents, friends and
benefactors, that
they may join the heavenly chorus in praising Him and in interceding for us.
