1⃣ 30 DAYS PRAYERS IN NOVEMBER FOR THE HOLY SOULS IN PURGATORY
DAY 22 - NOVEMBER 22
Let us never cease our prayers for the faithful departed. St. Francis de Sales often said: "I fear the good opinion which my friends have formed of me: they will believe me in Heaven and leave me to suffer."
Pray 1 Our Father... 3 Hail Marys... 1 Glory be...
DE PROFUNDIS
PSALM 129 (130)
V. Out of the depths, I have cried to Thee, O Lord, Lord, hear my voice.
R. Let Thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
V. If Thou, O Lord, shalt mark my iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand it?
R. For with Thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of Thy law I have waited for Thee, O Lord.
V. My soul hath relied on His word; my soul hath hoped in the Lord.
R. From the morning watch even until night; let Israel hope in the Lord.
V. Because with the Lord there is mercy; and with Him plenteous redemption.
R. And He shall redeem Israel from all its iniquities.
V. Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord,
R. and let perpetual light shine upon them:
V. May they rest in peace
R. Amen.
LET US PRAY: Most merciful Jesus, have mercy on the Souls in Purgatory. For us, Thou didst become Man, and suffer to die. By the merits of Thy agony and death, release the faithful departed from their pains, that they may enjoy everlasting bliss in Heaven. Amen.
PRAYER OF SAINT GERTRUDE THE GREAT FOR THE HOLY SOULS IN PURGATORY
(A prayer which would release many souls from Purgatory each time it is recited)
Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home and within my family. Amen.

2⃣ NOVENA TO OUR LADY OF THE MIRACULOUS MEDAL
DAY 5 - NOVEMBER 22
O Most Holy Virgin, O my Mother, ask thy Son on my behalf for everything my soul and all mankind needs so that thy Reign be established on earth. My most earnest request is that thou mayest triumph in me and in all souls and implant thy Reign on earth. Amen.
THE VIRGIN OF THE GLOBE
The Holy Virgin holds a globe in her hands representing the whole world, and each person in particular, and offers it to God, imploring His mercy.
She wears rings on her fingers, bearing precious stones that shed rays, one more beautiful than the next, symbolizing the graces that the Holy Virgin pours out on those who ask for them.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be...
LET US PRAY: O Most Holy Virgin, O my Mother, obtain for me the graces I am asking of thee and inspire me, above all, to request the graces that thou most wants to grant me. Amen.
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee!

3⃣ NOVENA TO CHRIST THE KING
DAY 6 - NOVEMBER 22
OPENING PRAYER: Lord Jesus, King of the universe, we want to open our spirit in this novena dedicated to you and contemplate the mystery of your life as an Apostle of the Kingdom with your mind and heart. We ask you, through the intercession of Mary, to establish your reign in our hearts so that united to you, we can make your Kingdom present in the hearts of people and in society.
“Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.” (Matthew 25: 31-46)
With his own life, Jesus Christ teaches us what it means to be King according to the criteria of the Kingdom of his Father. He shows us that true leadership consists in giving witness to the truth, in serving our brothers and sisters, in submitting freely to the will of the Father, and in giving our life for love. He teaches us that the way of the beatitudes is the one that leads to the Kingdom, and that at the end of our life, we will be judged on love.
To live the mystery of Christ who forms us as apostles is to remain united to him, to learn to think as He thinks, to feel as He feels, to love as He loves.
(State your intentions here…)
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be...
CLOSING PRAYER: Lord Jesus, open my heart so that you can reign in it, make present your mystery in me, and transform my life so that you can continue your mission through me. Amen.
Christ the King, Your Kingdom come!
