How to Avoid Purgatory

[Kontrak]

No one has claimed he appeared to them at the same time

The prayers are traditional Catholic prayers. Whether the Lord appeared to the three or not, to discourage the prayers seems a bit much. No harm done by praying them.

Yeah. This and the St. Bridgette promises come up a lot. Because I know God is generous and faith can be a big component in prayer I don’t like mentioning stuff like this, but because of the circumstances it made me cautious. But, like a week after, I still pray the 2 paters aves and glorias, any way.

@Geovet… thanks for the link!

It is said by some that many suffer enough in this life to offset any time in purgatory.

There’re the small scapulars and the large scapulars…
