The Rosary for the Holy Souls in Purgatory

 Our Description

Susan Tassone

Updated with the Luminous Mysteries.

When we pray this Scriptural Rosary for the holy souls in purgatory, we gain powerful intercessors and increase God's glory.  It is the greatest work we can do on earth.

Now Susan Tassone has taken the greatest Marian prayer of all - the Rosary - and adapted it to pray for the release of the holy souls in purgatory.

This Rosary not only includes scriptural references to purgatory, but also moving passages that reflect the penitent's love and concern for the dead, as well as supplications to God for His justice, love, and mercy.

God has given us the awesome privilege and power of assisting the souls in purgatory on their journey to Paradise.  This exciting new and original prayer combines the glory and the power of the Rosary with Scripture and meditations to create an amazing and effective way to gain the release of souls who await our prayers.

"The holy souls are eager for the prayers of the faithful, which can gain indulgences for them.  Their intercession is powerful.  Pray unceasingly.  We must empty purgatory!"
- St. Pio of Pietrelcina

Perfect pocket sized book for anyone who loves the rosary.

Anyone who enjoys praying the rosary will love this book. I rarely have the chance to pray the rosary peacefully at home. Usually I fit it in while I'm at the children's gymnastics classes or some other similar location. This has always been a bit of a challenge for me. I forget the mysteries or a certain prayer or have trouble focusing and it's discouraging. This book has been a blessing. It's small enough that it easily fits in my purse so I have all of the prayers and mysteries right there wherever I go. I like how the mysteries are already broken apart to give you one line from their passage to focus on for each Hail Mary. Not only has this helped me stay focused, but that piece by piece view has helped me understand and love each mystery even more each time I go through them.

The other thing I love about this book is that it is not just the mysteries. Many rosary books I have seen show you how to pray it, list all of the prayers, and give you the mysteries. This book do Full Review...

St. Padre Pio

Feast Day: Roman Rite Calendar - 09/23  Francesco Forgione  Padre Pio of Pietrelcina  Pio of Pietrelcina Memorial 23 September Profile Born to a southern Italian farm family, the son of Grazio, a shepherd. At age 15 he entered the novitiate of the Capuchin friars in Morcone, and joined the order at age 19. Suffered several health problems, and at one point his family thought he had tuberculosis. Ordained at age 22 on 10 August 1910. While praying before a cross, he received the stigmata on 20 September 1918, the first priest ever to be so blessed. As word spread, especially after American soldiers brought home stories of Padre Pio following WWII, the priest himself became a point of pilgrimage for both the pious and the curious. He would hear confessions by the hour, reportedly able to read the consciences of those who held back. Reportedly able to bilocate, levitate, and heal by touch. Founded the House for the Relief of Suffering in 1956, a hospital that serves 60,000 a year. In the 1920's he started a series of prayer groups that continue today with over 400,000 members worldwide. His canonization miracle involved the cure of Matteo Pio Colella, age 7, the son of a doctor who works in the House for Relief of Suffering, the hospital in San Giovanni Rotondo founded by Padre Pio. On the night of 20 June 2000, Matteo was admitted to the intensive care unit of the hospital with meningitis. By morning doctors had lost hope for him as nine of the boy´s internal organs had ceased to give signs of life. That night, during a prayer vigil attended by Matteo´s mother and some Capuchin friars of Padre Pio´s monastery, the child's condition improved suddenly. When he awoke from the coma, Matteo said that he had seen an elderly man with a white beard and a long, brown habit, who said to him: "Don´t worry, you will soon be cured." The miracle was approved by the Congregation and Pope John Paul II on 20 December 2001. Born 25 May 1887 at Pietrelcina, Benevento, Italy as Francesco Forgione Died 23 September 1968 of natural causes All information used with permission of the Patron Saint Index.
