ELEVENTH DAY
St Francis de Sales
tells us: "Devotion to the souls in Purgatory contains in itself all the works
of mercy which, supernaturalized by a spirit of faith, should merit us Heaven."
Lord Jesus Christ, deliver the souls of the faithful departed from the flames of
hell, and let
Thine angels bring them into the holy light. We offer Thee, O Lord, a sacrifice
of prayer and
praise, accept them in behalf of all the souls in Purgatory, that they may pass
from death to life
everlasting with Thee in Heaven.
