Prayer of Saint Gertrude

Today is the feast of Saint Gertrude. In her honor, I will post this comforting prayer given to Saint Gertrude in a vision, which is said to have the power of freeing 1000 souls from Purgatory.

Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus Christ, in union with the masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in Purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home and within my family. ~Amen.

Please pray for the religious people in Purgatory as they usually have no familiy lecft on earth to pray for them.

"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
