Release them from their torments, call them to you and welcome them into your arms in Heaven! Our Father ... Ave Maria ... Requiem aeternam ... Amen.
MEDJUGORJE TESTIMONIES AND MESSAGES ON THE PURGATORY
In July 1982 and January 1983 the visionaries of Medjugorje gave the following two testimonies on Purgatory.
“There are many souls in Purgatory. There are also many souls of consecrated persons, both priests and men and women religious. Pray for their intentions at least the Creed and the seven Pater-Ave-Gloria. There are many souls who have been in Purgatory for a very long time because nobody prays for them. "
“In Purgatory there are different levels; the deepest level is near Hell and the highest level is near Heaven. It is not on the occasion of the feast of All Saints, but at Christmas that most of the souls are freed from Purgatory. In Purgatory there are souls who pray to God with great fervor, but for these souls no relative or friend prays on earth. God allows them to take advantage of others' prayers. Furthermore, God allows them to manifest themselves to their relatives in different ways to remind them that Purgatory exists and that it is necessary for them to pray so that souls can draw near to God, who is just but good. Most people go to Purgatory; many go to Hell and only a relatively small number go directly to Heaven. "
Then, on November 6, 1986, Our Lady gave the world the following message through the visionary Marija Pavlovic:
“Dear children! Today I wish to invite you to pray every day for the souls of Purgatory. Prayer and grace are needed for every soul to reach God and God's love. With this, you too, dear children, receive new intercessors who will help you in life to understand that the things of the earth are not important to you; that only Heaven is the goal to which you must strive. Therefore, dear children, pray without ceasing so that you can help yourselves and also others to whom prayers will bring joy. Thanks for answering my call! ”.
And in January 1987 the visionary Mirjana Dragicevic received a long extraordinary message in which, among other things, the Blessed Virgin said:
“Set aside time to come to church from God. Enter your Father's house! Set aside time to go together, and together with your family ask God for thanks. Remember your dead. Give them joy with the celebration of Holy Mass ".
