Prayer for Souls in Purgatory

My Jesus,

by the sorrows Thou didst suffer in Thine agony in the Garden,

in Thy scourging and crowning with thorns,

on the way to Calvary,

in Thy crucifixion and death,

have mercy on the souls in purgatory,

and especially on those that are most forsaken;

do Thou deliver them from the terrible torments they endure;

call them and admit them to Thy most sweet embrace in paradise.

Amen.

The LiveSimply Prayer

Compassionate and loving God,

you created the world for us all to share,

A world of beauty and plenty.

Create in us a desire to live simply,

so that our lives may reflect your generosity.

Creator God,

you gave us responsibility for the earth,

a world of riches and delight.

Create in us a desire to live sustainably,

so that those who follow after us

may enjoy the fruits of your creation.

God of peace and justice,

you give us the capacity to change,

to bring about a world that mirrors your wisdom.

Create in us a desire to act in solidarity,

so that pillars of injustice crumble

and those now crushed are set free.

LOOK UPON THE FACE

O Almighty and Eternal God,

look upon the Face of Thy Son Jesus.

We present It to Thee with confidence to implore Thy pardon.

The All-Merciful Advocate opens His mouth to plead our cause;

hearken to His cries,

behold His tears, O God,

and through His infinite merits

hearken to Him when He intercedes

for us poor miserable sinners.

Amen.
