Resolution:
Today I will do everything possible to assist the souls of the faithful departed
from
South America. I also recommend myself to those entering heaven at this moment.
Thought for the day:

repay everyone according to his conduct." (Matt. 16, 27).
Exercise: Give to someone a picture or book about the Sacred Heart.
Special Intention: Pray for the soul which had the most devotion to the Blessed Sacrament.
Motive:
The soul will request for you the grace
to receive Holy Communion worthily at the hour of death as a pledge of
salvation.
Prayer:
O Lord God, I pray You, by the Blood
of Your Son Jesus, which He gave with His own hands on the eve of His Passion to
His beloved
Apostles to be their food and drink, and which He left to His Church to be an
eternal sacrifice and
life-giving food in His faithful people, deliver the souls in Purgatory, and
especially that one
which was most devoted to this mystery of infinite love, that it may with Your
same divine Son, and
with Your Holy Spirit, ever praise You for Your love in eternal glory. Amen.
Invocation: My Jesus! Mercy!
