The Catholic Church teaches the existence of Purgatory where souls are purified if they are not saintly enough to see God face to face(Heaven). In a sense one can say that the majority will have to go through purgatory if they are not already purified here on earth. Isn't also a loss that they are not able to enjoy heaven on their departure from earth?P.S.JOHNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16240611730222436081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-755500513614183073.post-28174809623784632182021-06-29T17:52:00.456-04:002021-06-29T17:52:00.456-04:00Yes, and that the intercession of Mary can be the ...Yes, and that the intercession of Mary can be the last hope of the sinner.elena maria vidalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17129629173535139807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-755500513614183073.post-58525360447338086902021-06-29T17:40:36.863-04:002021-06-29T17:40:36.863-04:00I was once told that the sandal hanging from a sin...I was once told that the sandal hanging from a single strap represents all of us who rely on the mercy of our Lord for salvation.julygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07008279978165536349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-755500513614183073.post-85566231434443743542021-06-21T09:08:47.365-04:002021-06-21T09:08:47.365-04:00To M-J and other readers: I realized that Father M...To M-J and other readers: I realized that Father Mark's posts have been removed. I am so sorry. But I am leaving the posts up so that the monks will see that his site it still receiving hits. I have written and asked them to please restore Father's posts. This blog might be the only place left to read Father Mark so I am keeping the posts up so that he will not be completely silenced. Thank you for your concern and I apologize for the inconvenience. I wish I had copied more of his posts while they were available. Please go to Fr.
