The main focus of this ministry is to remind people that Purgatory exhists and so we must pray to free these poor souls from their suffering.

"Open your hearts and have pity upon us. If you believe not that we need your help, alas, what lack of faith! If you believe our need and care not for us, alas, what lack of pity. For whoever pity not us, who can you pity? If you pity the blind, there is none so blind as we which are here in the dark till some comfort come. If you pity the crippled, there is none so crippled as we, that can neither put one foot out of the fire or have one hand at liberty to defend our face from the flame. If you have been sick and longed for day, while every hour seemed longer than five, think what a long night we souls endure that lie sleepless, restless, burning and broiling in the dark fire one long night of many days, of many weeks, and some of many years."

The Catechism of the Catholic Church defines purgatory as a "purification, so as to achieve the holiness necessary to enter the joy of heaven," which is experienced by those "who die in God’s grace and friendship, but still imperfectly purified" (CCC 1030). It notes that "this final purification of the elect . . . is entirely different from the punishment of the damned" (CCC 1031).

"I saw several souls fall into Hell, and among them was a child of fifteen, cursing her parents for not having taught her to fear God nor that there was a Hell. Her life had been a short one, she said, but full of sin, for she had given in to all that her body and passions demanded in the way of satisfaction..." (March 22,1923). ~ ~ Sister Josefa Menendez
