I decided to post privately since I am not Catholic (although I am Catholic friendly) :)

Guess what? You hit the wrong reply button. LOL.

In answer to your question, it is not nearly as commonly done in these days as it used to be (or, for that matter, should be). We should offer up all of our pain, suffering, anguish, frustrations, anger, upset, etc., for the salvation of souls. You should read the document I linked to in my original comment -- it goes through the doctrinal basis for this in a very comprehensive fashion.

It is taught in more conservative, traditionalist circles. But, unfortunately, there are far too few of us and far too many liberal, politically correct, feel good circles around. Hopefully, those of us who are more traditional can act as a leaven for the rest of them and help restore the practice.

LOL. I am SO sorry. That is what I get for trying to FReep and talk to my mother at the same time.

I will read the link. I have always felt more comfortable around the “traditional” Catholics.

I’m in a Novus Ordo parish but it has perpetual Adoration.

I think that might be the difference from the liberati.
