Novena for the Holy Souls in Purgatory
By: St. Alphonsus Liguori
Day 8
Oh
my God! I also am one of these ungrateful beings, having received so much
grace, and yet despised Thy love and deserved to be cast by Thee into hell. But
Thy infinite goodness has spared me until now. Therefore, I now love Thee above
all things, and I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee. I will rather die
than ever offend Thee. Grant me the grace of holy perseverance. Have compassion
on me and, at the same time, on the holy souls suffering in Purgatory. Mary,
Mother of God, come to their aid with thy powerful intercession.
Our Father
Our
Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be
done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive
us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not
into temptation: But deliver us from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary
Hail
Mary, full of grace; The Lord is with thee; Blessed art thou amongst women, And
blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, Pray for us
sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Blessed
Souls, I have prayed for thee; I entreat thee, who are so dear to God, and who
are secure of never losing Him, to pray for me a miserable sinner, who is in
danger of being damned, and of losing God forever. Amen.
