Daily Prayers for the Poor Souls

Remember, November is the Month of the Poor Souls. Here are seven daily prayers for the poor souls, enriched with a partial indulgence, applicable, as all indulgences are, to the poor souls..

SUNDAY 

Lord God almighty, I beseech Thee, by the precious blood
which Thy Divine Son Jesus shed in the garden, deliver the souls in purgatory, and amongst them all especially that soul which is most destitute of aid; and bring it to Thy glory,
there to praise and bless Thee forever.

Amen.

(After the Prayer for the Day each day, recite the following prayers):

Our Father

Hail Mary

De Profundis

MONDAY

Lord God almighty, I beseech Thee, by the precious blood
which Thy Divine Son Jesus shed in His cruel scourging,
deliver the souls in purgatory, and amongst them all,
especially that soul which is nearest to its entrance into Thy glory; that, so it may soon begin to praise and bless Thee forever.

Amen.

TUESDAY

Lord God almighty, I beseech Thee, by the precious blood
which Thy Divine Son Jesus shed in His bitter crowning with thorns, deliver the souls in purgatory, and in particular, amongst them all, deliver that one which would be the last to issue from those pains, that it tarry not so long a time before it comes to praise Thee in Thy glory and bless Thee forever.

Amen.

WEDNESDAY

Lord God almighty, I beseech Thee, by the precious blood which Thy Divine Son Jesus shed through the streets of Jerusalem when He carried the cross upon His sacred shoulders, deliver the souls in purgatory, and especially that soul which is richest in merits before Thee; that so, on that throne of glory which awaits it, it may magnify Thee and bless Thee forever.

Amen.

THURSDAY

LORD God almighty, I beseech Thee, by the precious body and blood of Thy Divine Son Jesus, which He gave with His own hand upon the eve of His passion to His beloved apostles to be their meat and drink, and which He left to His whole Church to be a perpetual sacrifice and life-giving food
of His own faithful people, deliver the souls in purgatory,
and especially that one which was most devoted to this mystery of infinite love; that, with Thy Divine Son, and with Thy Holy Spirit, it may ever praise Thee for this Thy wondrous love in Thy eternal glory.

Amen.

FRIDAY

LORD God almighty, I beseech Thee, by the precious blood
which Thy Divine Son shed on this day, upon the wood of the cross, from His most sacred hands and feet, deliver the souls in purgatory, and especially that soul for which I am most bound to pray; that the blame rest not with me that Thou bringest it not forthwith to praise Thee in Thy glory and to bless Thee forever.

Amen.

SATURDAY

Lord God almighty, I beseech Thee, by the precious blood
which gushed forth from the side of Thy Divine Son Jesus in the sight and to the extreme pain of His most holy Mother deliver the souls in purgatory, and especially that one amongst them all which was ever the most devout to this great Lady; that it may soon attain unto Thy glory, there to praise Thee in her, and her in Thee, world without end.

Amen.
