Prayer to St Gertrude for souls in Purgatory: She said our Lord revealed to her that 1,000 souls would be released from purgatory each time the prayer is said. Pray: “Eternal Father, I offer You the most Precious Blood of Your Divine Son, Jesus, 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” God bless us one and all! Thank you for sharing your faith with so many people.
I’m sorry to tell you this but the claim that this prayer was revealed to save 1000 souls is simply false. I admire your dedication for this but please remember that no where in St. Gertrude’s biography has she mentioned specifically about that number. Though a great prayer, it cannot release 1000 souls by itself. If you do not believe me, please search on the internet and read credible Catholic articles about it. God bless!
@@pomm1802that’s what Jimmy Akin said about it. Maybe with devotion, praying and asking God for forgiveness for the holy souls 1000 times might help one soul escape purgatory. That would still be worthwhile for me to pray. Also St Gertrude reached sainthood here on earth, so maybe she could do it, but like you said, this prayer is no where in her writing.
Janelle, your beauty during pregnancy is such a blessing; you are a daily reminder of God's many miracles including being a woman with human life forming within, a life created through the power & grace of love. ♡
As a little girl, I’m now 66, my parents taught us that prayer for the Souls in Purgatory, which was Always said immediately after grace before our meal. Therefore, when my husband and I had our family, we also say the prayer for the Holy Souls in Purgatory after grace before meals. So happy to know that it is not only our family that does this. You are both grace filled. Thank you.
Our family prays, “May the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace,” with Grace at every meal as well. It’s a beautiful act of love that brings me joy! Thank you for your wonderful reflections!! 🙏
This has taught me so much. I see prayer in a different light, instead of just making request to God for our own needs. Todays lesson/message was so informative. Literally made me cry. Thank you, Thank you for helping us grow in our Catholic faith. I want to teach my kids mental prayer. I pray God blesses you both and your beautiful family.
Thank you Bro Ken and SrJanelle. I need guide for mental prayer . I have been wanting this, and God led me to your talk at midnight of Dec 3, 2021. Thanks.
Me too....thank you Bro Ken and Sr Janelle...you have outlined the steps so beautifully. A beginner like me will find it very helpful. God bless you both🙏
Have you considered making booklets of your PowerPoint slides? Your videos are so rich with info, it would help to have a booklet of the entire season series (Lent, Advent) Maybe charge a small fee for a downloadable booklet at the end of each series. May God richly bless you and your work. You’re helping me grow in my faith.
Every time I pass by a cemetery it reminds me to pray for the souls of purgatory. I do it at least 1 time a day bc I pass by taking the kids to school. It’s the visual that reminds me.
This explanation of mental prayer was extremely helpful. There isxa lot to remember. If possible would love to see a few video examples of meditative prayer.
Today, March 28, you referred us back to this video. Thank you. I wrote down the steps for Mental Prayers, and I hope to make it a part of my daily life.
Thank you for sharing! Our family adds the prayer for the Holy Souls after we say Grace before meals and have been doing it for many years. I also pray for the Holy Souls after I pray the Angelus and when I bless myself with Holy Water.
I got the Diary of St Faustina a couple months ago and wanted to finish by Christmas but I found if I just do a few pages and I get a lot out of it. I will finish by Christmas... Christmas 2022!
Thank you Ken and Janelle for sharing with us on Mental Prayer. I always struggle in this area, the mind just wanders. I need to pray for the grace of the Holy Spirit to help me focus on my conversations with God. You have shared some good insights that will help me.
I've only just found you guys in my search for guidance on Mental Prayer, and I loved listening to you both. I've subbed, and liked, and will be watching more of your videos going forward. I hope that my wife starts coming to my Catholic Church with me some time and that we can grow together like the two of you.
A great video for mental prayer with these three stages of preparation, meditation, petitions and conclusion and all its steps. Thank you Ken and Janelle it has been so very well explained by you both. A great team! God bless you both and family!
Thank You Ken & Jenelle. Definitely important to Be Patient in Prayer, and then listen to the HOLY SPIRIT Inspiring us, and sit with it and see what accumulates from this process.,, 💕💕💕🙏
Oh I connect with you totally. I am reading glories of Mary too!!! Started with the devotions. Read it more than 20 yrs ago but Mother Mary has inspired me to go back.Today it is St Maximus the confessor from office of readings in Divine Office that made me stop and wade in the waters longer such a wonderful feeling so true what you are saying I have experienced it.Not to grumble , not to argue in everything lesson I learned . Jesus and Mary I beg for your grace.
'When you stop trying to be like other people, you end up being yourself. And that is who you were meant to be in the first place.' Anon. Love your neighbor AS YOURSELF.
Thank you for this great leasson sometimes I feel like I don’t know how to pray but like you saidthe Holy Spirit Spirit helps us to pray when we struggle. I like the part of resolutions I have been asking God to help me feel Moe charitable to those who annoy me. This God is really working on in mr
Yes, just like in the word of God says: “Come to me in humility “. To approach Hod, we must first humble ourselves, to the core. He cannot resist in great love for the humble. When we humble ourselves, we capture the divine Lord, he becomes a captive. God is a beggar. He is in love with humanity. He can’t help it. But Je only commutes with the humble, and never with the proud. He looks for the sincerity in heart. He can read our thoughts and even more than that, because He knows us better than what we know ourselves. But we should never miss use His mercy,
Happy Advent GOD bless you Ken and Janelle what answered prayer 🙏 Thank you for Advent Retreat I show love to mentally pray I have a vivid and imagination with good thoughts in mind I imagine myself with our lady and Saint Joseph on their way to Bethlehem as I get ready for the birthday our savior Jesus Our sovereign God brought himself down as a little baby also Thank you for reaching out to me during the beginning of COVID Virus last year...

I pray the prayer of ST Gertrude the Great that releases 1000 souls from purgatory each time it is said. There is a chalet on utube that I listen to when I’m resting or going to bed that releases 50,000 souls
Question about praying for holy souls. I do, but since I have completed the total consecration to Mary, I've given her the liberty to distribute my prayers and all my good works to whom she pleases.
Isn’t this the Examen prayer ? Thanksgiving, Petition, Review of the day, Repentance, Resolution I don’t know if I’m missing anything Oh yes the souls in purgatory

REALLY? I'm pretty sure they've considered what Jesus says. After all, as Catholics we do read the Bible. I know, mind blowing to a protestant! But the Bible isn't the only source. "Blessed are the peacemakers..." your sarcasm filled comments do not sew peace .

👍
Thank you for this video! Been trying to understand what to do in mental prayer and now I will try it out!
I hope this video helps! 😀
Very helpful my meditative prayers start good but go direct into sleep. Will do this method. Great points.
The Holy Rosary is meditation on the life of Christ. Those who mock the Rosary don't know the beauty of this lovely way of praying.
Yes but it is still more vocal prayer then mental so you should still do regular mental prayer if you want to advance in the spiritual life
Absolutely perfect! Thank you so much Janelle and Ken! God bless you and your family always ❤️🔥🙏✝️✝️✝️
I got the Diary of St Faustina a couple months ago and wanted to finish by Christmas but I found if I just do a few pages and I get a lot out of it. I will finish by Christmas... Christmas 2022!
There is a Marian Press Podcast of St. Faustina’s Diary in a Year with Father Roesch, too. I believe it is also on TH-cam. It is wonderful!
You are right... Every page is so enriching with so many prayers and reflections
Thank you Ken and Janelle for sharing with us on Mental Prayer. I always struggle in this area, the mind just wanders. I need to pray for the grace of the Holy Spirit to help me focus on my conversations with God. You have shared some good insights that will help me.
Ken and Janelle are proof of the saying that when people live together they begin to look alike.
You both are amazing - thank you for your witness and sharing your faith journey. Again - you guys are amazing
Thanks Marty.
