After joining, as a 'Patron of Purgatory' you may also participate in the Novena of Masses for the Holy Souls.

Members who participate will arrange to have Masses offered with the following intention:
"for all the Holy Souls in Purgatory and deceased 'Patrons of Purgatory'."

We have expanded this very popular area by adding three 'Spiritual Health' pages to aid you in your spiritual life:
Furthermore, we have included a 'Spiritual Growth' page to check your spiritual progress:
We have also added other pages to aid you on your journey to Our Father's house:
- The Gift of Life-- The Gift of Life: Blessing or Curse?
- Purification:
'On earth you simply do not know what God is. There, each one of you has an idea of what you think God is, according to your very limited knowledge, but when we leave our covering of clay and when nothing impedes the liberty of our souls, we at last begin to know God, His goodness, His mercy, His love. After this clearer view and the thirst for union, our souls yearn for God. This is our very life and we are forever repulsed because we are not sufficiently pure. This, in a word, is our worst suffering, the hardest, the most bitter. Oh, if only we were allowed to come back to earth, after knowing what God really is, what a different life we would lead! But what useless regrets, and yet on earth you do not think of these things and live as if you were blind. Eternity is of no account to you. The earth, which is only a journey and receives only the body which in itself turns to dust, is the sole object to which almost all of your desires tend and you do not even think of Heaven while Jesus and His love are entirely forgotten.'

After logging in:
Click 'Add Memoriam' in the center of your Login Confirmation page. For an existing Beloved, choose 'is enrolled' and click 'Continue'. Type in the surname (last name) in the 'Search for beloved' box.
You may choose the type of Memoriam you desire.
You may repeat this for any new Beloved you have sponsored. You will be asked
if you want to add another, and it will save a few steps.
