Novena
Go, if possible, to mass during the novena and particularly on All Saints' Day. Confession highly recommended.
This novena can also be prayed throughout the year.
Saint Margaret Mary is at the origin of this practice: "You will make a small tour through Purgatory in the company of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, to ask him to apply his merits to these holy suffering souls. And you will pray to him, at the same time, to use their power to obtain for you the grace to live in love and fidelity to Our Lord Jesus Christ, responding to his desires for us, without resistance. one of these poor imprisoned souls, you will be very happy to have an advocate in Heaven who would plead for your salvation ".
Every day: the consecration of his day
Let us pray: O divine Heart of Jesus, by doing, in your company, this "little tour through Purgatory", we consecrate to You all that we have done and will still do good, with the help of your Grace, during this day. We also ask You to apply all your merits to these holy souls. And you, holy souls in Purgatory, at the same time use all your power to obtain for us the grace to live in love and fidelity to Our Lord Jesus Christ, responding without resistance to his desires for us.
Amen.
Let us go down in thought for a moment, with the Love of the Heart of Jesus and the abundance of his graces, to Purgatory!
1) How many souls are coming there, at this moment, to begin their painful captivity! Happy to have avoided hell forever ... They are saved ... But also, exiled, for a time, from their heavenly Homeland.
2) What a holy legion, almost entirely purified, is preparing today to fly to Heaven ..! Let us give these souls the last vote which will hasten their happy departure by a few moments and ask them to remember us in the Eternal Kingdom.
Let us pray to Miserere (Psalm 51)
Have pity on me, O God, in your goodness, in your great tenderness erase my sin. Wash me from all malice and my fault, purify me. For my sin, I know it, my fault is before me without respite; against you, you alone, I have sinned, which is wrong in your eyes, I have done it. So you are fair when you pronounce, without reproach when you judge, see, bad I was born, sinner my mother conceived me ...
First day
What do you regret, holy souls in Purgatory, for the land you left?
I regret the time lost ... I did not believe it was so precious, nor so fast, nor so irreparable ... If I had known ... If I could still ..! Precious time ..! Today, I appreciate you as you deserve. You had been given to me to be used entirely for the love of God, for my sanctification, for the relief and the edification of my neighbor. But I have employed you for pleasure and for works which now cause me such bitter regrets!
O you who still live on earth, consecrate for us, to the Heart of Jesus, some of those hours where grace is offered to you in such abundance and with such ease! In advance, thank you.
Let us pray: O Lord, Almighty God, we beseech You, through the very precious Blood of Jesus, shed during his Passion, to deliver souls from Purgatory, and especially those who must enter your Glory the earliest, so that they are starting now to bless You throughout eternity and tirelessly intercede for us.

All these goods vanished in my eyes at the time of death! Ah! If I were rich today in these perishable goods, what would I not give to advance by one degree the glory that God reserves for me in Heaven and to make known, here below, the devotion to his Sacred Heart? .
