Prayer Routine

How about praying for the souls in purgatory?..click on the links in my signature to read how they pray for us too

I intend to pray for the souls in purgatory by reciting the St. Gertrude prayer. Thank you for your suggestion, however!

I pray for the Souls in Purgatory along with my after-meal grace. It was listed that way in my prayer book, so I thought that was the normal practice, but I’m glad about it because I don’t have to remember it

Sometimes it’s easier for me to remember to say a prayer if it’s linked to something I am already in the habit of, iyswim.

I usually add the prayer of St. Gertrude after my morning recitation of the Little Crown of the Blessed Virgin Mary. There is no set time. Having it built into normal practice is the best way to ensure the Souls in Purgatory are prayed for.

I will be confirmed Catholic this Easter, if it is God’s will, and I have recently begun a prayer routine. I forget prayer sometimes but I am doing my best.

I follow a book called ‘A Simple Prayer Book’ published by the Catholic Truth Society. I say the morning prayers and evening prayers, and the bedtime prayer, and finish up the the St Michael prayer. At the moment I am focussing on trying to remember to say all the time Grace before and after meals; and the Angelus at 12pm and 6pm. I like that the Grace after meals also has a short sentence for the repose of the souls of the faithful departed.

I intend to also introduce saying the Rosary daily. I did this for a while a few months ago but stopped doing it. I intend to say a Rosary every day during Lent and never saying rosaries is beginning to weigh on my conscience (although I know they are ‘optional’).
