Easter Friday: Day 8 of the Divine Mercy Novena — Praying for the Souls in Purgatory
Description
In this episode of the Council of Catholic Men, Day 8 of the Divine Mercy Novena and Chaplet, we focus our prayers on the souls detained in purgatory. We unite in trust to the Heart of Jesus, asking that His mercy—poured out in blood and water—bring consolation and purification to those in need, and we entrust them to the Eternal Father through the Sorrowful Passion of Christ.
We pray the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, including the Our Father, Hail Mary, Apostles’ Creed, and the repeated invocation, “For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world,” culminating with the Trisagion and the closing prayer from the Diary of St. Faustina. We lift up the suffering, lean into hope, and ask God to increase His mercy in us so we may do His holy will with confidence.
