    When our local Parish Priest passed away....he had put aside $500 in his last Will and Testament to be used specifically for Masses to be said in remembrance of his name and the repose of his soul. That beautiful man has had 3x that number said for him since his passing a few short years ago, so moved was our community.

    There used to be close to 500 K priests in 1950. Than in the 60s it dropped. Unfortunately you can also find out how many priests were convicted of sinful acts. Once a priest dies they are remembered for awhile and then forgotten which is really sad!

      Yes, it is kind a scary. Even more scary is that according to Maria Simma even Padre Pio was in purgatory. On the other hand according to her Herman Goring was there too. He should be in heaven now if i remember correctly. We never know the true state of other soul. So, we should never judge. But the most important thing is that purgatory is matter of choice for every sould. Soul is not ordered to go there. It is his/ her choice if feels unworthy to go straight to heaven and when feels dirty.

But I believe that it is not just in this time of lent that we should pray to priests, bishops, popes and all holy servants of GOD. We should pray for them everyday for their many years of service to the catholic church. I believe that even short prayers offered for them everyday of the year will bring relief for their souls in purgatory.

    Flame of Love
    PROMISES
 (The numbers note the page in the Simplified Version of the diary where the quote is found).
    (18) Each time you fast (bread and water), you will free a priest’s soul from purgatory. (Jesus)
    (40) If a person fasts for a deceased priest, by that fast the priest’s soul will be freed from purgatory, eight days after his death. Anyone who observes this fast, will free a suffering soul. (Jesus)
    (40) By observing this fast, priests will be freed from purgatory on the eighth day after their death. (Jesus)
    (46) If at any moment, someone prays three Hail Mary’s in my honor, while referring to the Flame of Love, they will free a soul from purgatory. (Mary)
    (46) During November, one Hail Mary will free ten souls. The souls in Purgatory should experience the effect of the Flame of Love. (Mary)

      The Flame of Love devotion is from the Spiritual Diary of Elizabeth Kindlemann. Fr. Jim Blount speaks about it often. He says the Unity Prayer is very efficacious in spiritual warfare.
      Fr. Chris Alar and Christine Watkins have spoken at Flame of Love conferences.
      There’s also a flame of love app.
      Jesus and Mary appeared to Elizabeth Kindlemann in Budapest in the 1960’s. Like Faustina, Kindlemann had to write down everything Jesus and Mary said. When the messages were completed she had to take the diary to the Vatican. She had to smuggle it out of communist Hungry. When she met with the Vatican officials, she discovered that she had left the diary in the hotel. They told her to tell them what she remembered and send the diary later, and she did. When they compared the notes, she had repeated word for word what she had written over the years in the diary.
      Search Flame of Love on UA-cam and you will find a lot of info. Christine Watkins info is most detailed about the promises for the Holy Souls.

      Yes they are ascension eventually, unfortunately people close to them are assumed they go straight to haven, and not praying for them (I witness this a lot, and the souls ask in my dream to pray for them).
      But we don’t know what the thing they did that displease the Lord. That’s why we are given Grace to pray for souls in purgatory.

    I have had requests over the last 2 days for Lenten prayers. Here is one just for Fridays.
    A Friday Lenten Prayer :
    Prayer to the Holy Cross: I adore You, O glorious Cross, which was adorned with the Heart and Body of my Savior Jesus Christ, stained and covered with blood. I adore You, O Holy Cross, out of love for Him, Jesus, who is my Savior and my God.
    (Pope Pius IX declared that reciting this prayer five times on Friday will free five souls from Purgatory and 33 souls by reciting it on Good Friday. This prayer should be recited before a crucifix with a contrite heart and praying a few minutes for the Pope).

    This is the math:
    (7.7 deaths / 1,000 people) * 400,000 people = 3,080 deaths per year. So, based on this calculation, around 3,080 people would be expected to die each year in a population of 400,000 people. The average of the total amount of priests is about 400,000 roughly.
    Yeah priests need prayers for being in purgatory, it's actually been my focus for awhile because they are often forgotten about which is kinda sad. I like catholic priests I know the devil likes to put them into situations that are quite difficult AKA the trolley problem and I feel bad for them but am also excited that they are in a position of authority so it's a roller coaster...

      The fuss is about the Traditonal Latin Mass being removed / restricted, even though many young converts, reverts, and young families are filling the Traditional parishes. They crave the stability, depth, and reverence of the Mass of the Ages over the NO 1960s mass. Even though TLM is more popular, bishops & vatican are putting restrictions on it due to modernism

      I was raised in the New mass but now attend the Latin Mass. It contains much more of the sacred content that naturally developed from the time of the Apostles. It is God centered versus the more modern protestantized version created in the 60s. It is less about Latin and more about sacred content. 😢

      Well, if you would ever really have read the apostolic letter, you might have realized that he put out a parish where they say the old rite in Paris as an example for what he expects. It’s not that he forbids it. He has some doubts that the pastoral care is met properly. And if I’m honest: I do understand why. The problem is that I know a lot of people who attend the Latin mass who start criticizing everything and everyone that are not attending it. And as I understand it: some seem to give the impression that they are the Pope and think they know everything. And that is the problem. It’s the problem of pride and of disobedience and criticism. We do not have a perfect Pope and we will never have a perfect one. But we have a rather good Pope and he is like a strict father to the Traditionalsists not because he doesn’t cherish them but to help them to become holier and to convert where it’s necessary.
