Eternal Father, Thou who art infinitely good, deign to take pity on the poor captives who cry in the burning prison of Purgatory. Remember that they are Thy children, Thine elect, the brethren of Thy Well-beloved Son, the temples of Thy Divine Spirit. Take pity on them, O Lord and gracious Father. Purify them of all their stains, forgive them of their debts, put an end to their horrible torments. I beseech Thee to relent to the Look of Jesus, the object of Thy complacency; see the immense Charity which burns for them in His Divine Heart, consider the unheard of sufferings, the Most Precious Blood which hath been spilt in their favor; turn Thine eyes upon the adorable sacrifice of the Cross renewed each day on our altars. I offer Thee all of these infinite merits, O Holy Father, at each moment of this day and of my whole life. But, as my innumerable sins may impede the happy effects of this infinitely holy offering, I wish to offer it through the most pure hands of Thine Immaculate Daughter, the most Holy Virgin Mary. She alone is worthy to present Her Divine Son and Thine. I unite myself therefore to Her, and also to the angels and all the saints, in order to offer Thee with their love the incomparable Sacrifice of Thy Well-beloved Son. In return, O Father and God of Mercy, pardon the poor souls in Purgatory. Give them eternal rest, and make shine upon them the light of Thine infinite glory. So be it.

🩸EASTER BUT MAKE IT SCARY🩸

A scene from the movie Risen (2016) in which the Roman Tribune who gave the command for Jesus to be pierced in the side is then tasked with tracking down his disciples to find out which of them "stole" the body of their leader. In this scene, the living Jesus is revealed, but from the protagonist's perspective, this is terrifying.

The Holy Spirit is the third Person of the Most Blessed Trinity. He is God, one and equal with the Father and the Son. He “proceeds from the Father” (John 15:26) who is the principle without a principle and the origin of all trinitarian life. He proceeds also from the Son (Filioque) by the eternal Gift which the Father makes of him to the Son. Sent by the Father and the Incarnate Son, the Holy Spirit guides the Church “to know all truth” (John 16:13).
