When you consider the timespan of our lives within the framework of history, it is important to remember and pray for those who no longer have anyone to pray for them.
Very cool ~ thanks for posting.
Thank you for posting this. This is the second recent post mentioning “St. Joseph, Patron of a Good Death”. No one in my family was familiar with (or had forgotten) that title. My mother, age 92 but very healthy, has now taken a great interest in St. Joseph due to these postings.
Very touching.
I frequently dedicate a decade to the souls in most need.
One day, it may be me in need.
- there is NOTHING so preposterous that it hasn't actually happened at one time or another. Who would have thought that that old joke had a basis in fact . . . . if you've ever read Dorothy Sayers's The Nine Tailors (and I highly recommend it), she mentions that bellringing can be a hazardous occupation. Aside from bells falling, usually due to poor maintenance of the wooden framework that holds them, a careless ringer can hang himself in the slack of his own rope.
Prayers for the Poor Souls!

Obama Says A Baby Is A Punishment
Obama: “If they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby.”
Pray that God will show His will to me clearly as to whether I should devote my time and prayers to the souls in Purgatory.
As Tasmanian has said, one day it (probably WILL!) be *me* in need...
