TWENTY-SECOND DAY

Let us never cease our prayers for the faithful departed. St. Francis de Sales often said: "I
fear the good opinion which my friends have formed of me: they will believe me in Heaven and leave
me to suffer."

Prayer: Our Father, 3 Hail Marys, Gloria, De Profundis.

Most merciful Jesus, have mercy on the souls in Purgatory. For us, Thou didst become Man, and
suffer to die. By the merits of Thy agony and death, release the faithful departed from their pains,
that they may enjoy everlasting bliss in Heaven.
