Reflections on purgatory and prayer
Some evenings after prayer I can be in meditative state. During those times I can have small chats with souls in purgatory. This is allowed by Jesus and a gift he has given me.
While praying for souls in purgatory I ask them to join me in prayer. I even prompt them to do a sign of the cross. I know a priest who I pray for who quietly says ‘thank you’.
My cousin Brendan died in 2013 suddenly of a heart attack. He was a kind jovial person and once things opened up for my wife and I in 2019 I began to include him in my prayer.
Anyway the other night I had a small talk with him. My wife revealed that he is in mid purgatory which is not too bad. He appeared in my mind to be inside a dimly lit Church. He sat calmly. Then he mentioned that during earth time within our family I wasn’t respected or understood but that family member souls in purgatory and heaven think differently from this now.
There are allocated souls who are selected to pray for siblings cousins parents aunts uncles who are placed in purgatory and my guess is that they can be the smallest poorest and least admired within their families while on earth. This makes sense. I don’t know if their is a word for such souls.
Brendan mentioned my brothers passing in 2019 which was also very sudden. In my mind I was shown two different ways souls can exit their bodies:
1: With peaceful acceptance and straight out of he body…. then through the ceiling easily.
2: In a state of shock even denial where the soul finds itself floating around in circles floundering.
My brothers experience was the second.
I think in the second experience the soul would be very attached to the earth and body and material things and ideas. It would then have to accept that it has lost the physical body.

This Catholic Priest creates some excellent programmes on you tube. He discusses Maria Simmas words about Purgatory.
‘For The Holy Souls in Purgatory ‘by Susan Tassone. March 8th 2021.
I firmly believe due to worldwide church lockdowns that this has created a clogging up in purgatory of souls. These souls ordinarily would have either progressed or gone to Heaven by now.
If you have just lost a family member or want to help Holy Souls please consider reading this book.

Journeys in Purgatory, part 2.
My Uncle Mike was an Irish Catholic born in the 1920s. He moved to Canada in the late 1940s. He thought, and I’m sure others did that there would be another war in Europe. He never married and later in 1980s moved to London to help after our parents had died. He was very helpful and kind to me. In 1996 he moved to Ireland as he felt he had helped enough and had become tired of London. Sadly one evening while out walking he was killed as he crossed the road. My Dad had also died the same way . While I knew him, he professed to be an atheist but would always mention some aspect of Catholicism in a jocular slightly sarcastic way. Once my wife The Little Prophet received her gift, I was able to enquire about my family and where their souls were located. At the time I had discovered twelve who were nearly all Catholics who were placed in Purgatory. I have eight left as my wife and I have helped get four out of purgatory. Some of them had been there for nearly forty years and had waited until I knew where they were so I could pray for them. Uncle Mike was there also and because of his atheism I’d always presumed he had been sent to Hell.
My Brother became my first person to pray for as he had died only a month before my wife started receiving messages from Heaven. There’s a natural hierarchy that exists in the mind in those cases. My brother entered Heaven on Christmas Day 2019. I was now free to focus on Uncle Mike.
During my Rosaries I would get tiny glimpses of him. The impression I got was of someone struggling to walk in the fog and that there were was a hole in the left side of his trousers. He stumbled about in confusion unable to walk upright properly.
19th April 2020:
Q: My Uncle Dear Lord what is the current situation with his soul?
Jesus: Please be restful in the peace that he is in. He was an unbeliever but in his heart, he knew I was his God. He is in a place of thought…. he is not suffering too much.
Q: Does he have smarter clothes?
Jesus: I can tell you he is wearing clothes that are pleasant.
Having known of my Uncles stubborn atheism while he was alive on earth. A place of thought would be a section of purgatory where he would reflect on his earthly thoughts after having been in the purifying and painful lower parts of purgatory. I would guess a place of thought is located mid to higher Purgatory. Once a soul reaches the top part of purgatory, they are able to speak to other souls awaiting heaven. This I discovered when my brother was at that stage.
The Pride of Mind was a hindrance in his life like it is for many of us. Many of us identify ourselves stubbornly with the pride of our intellectual presentation to others and others get used to this side of ourselves. Some times our words can bring money and power too.
I knew a priest who passed away in 2018 and I’ve placed him at the top of my priority list of ‘souls to pray for’. I also hear his voice as I devote a rosary to his soul. He says ‘thank you’ in humble quiet gratitude. My relatives who are still there are yet to make themselves known which makes me think they are still purifying in the lower levels.
It’s known that Our Blessed Mother brings refreshment to souls in purgatory. While praying for my priest friend I quickly in my mind viewed Our Blessed Mother bringing him a cup of light. This makes sense as the refreshment they pine for would be the love of God.
My feeling is that Jesus does have clemency for Catholics. I’m sure there are many Catholics in hell and Heaven also. I think in some cases Catholic souls in their lives are used by God for suffering for the salvation of other souls. Nearly all cases of stigmata for example are Catholics. This is only my thoughts but not based on any locution. I know that God has made me a suffering soul for the sake of others.
On the subject of how souls are judged we have learnt that being a ‘nice’ person isn’t necessarily the ticket into Purgatory or Heaven. My brother eventually went to Heaven and he was unfair and cruel to me much of my life. My brother in all honesty would admit that he wasn’t a nice guy, I’m not sure if I consider myself a nice guy as it sounds so corny. I think what happens in that transition time when we are faced with Jesus is crucial as he looks into our hearts. Also the factor of prayers; if they have been said for us by relatives.
Lent of 2019 began on March 6th.While walking and praying at that time I felt a strong urge to pray for my brother so that he would let go of resentment and forgive others. I went on to say many Rosaries for him. He passed away on April the 16th 2019.
My Uncle is also now in Heaven.

At the end of May 2019 when Jesus spoke through my wife for the first time, it was quite a heady and exciting time. I also felt changes in myself spiritually as we went through this experience together.
Very early on much was said between Jesus and us. I realised after a while that Jesus didn’t want me asking so many questions but he allowed this at the early stages.
I have a quick mind and chatty mouth and Jesus mentioned that I was too ‘ transparent’ as in I gave away too much of myself to others.
We did ask questions about where the souls of deceased relatives had gone. I also asked about famous public figures and the location of their souls. Because Jesus’s tone of voice could manifest through my wife displaying happiness or sadness, on asking about a celebrities location who ended up in hell I noticed Jesus’s voice went quieter because of his sadness for that soul.
At one point I wrote a list of celebs in hell. In reflection I feel much remorse at this and believe now my pride got carried away. Jesus’s love for us all is burning and incalculable. We as people think so differently, we see each others faces and smiles and battle with our sins but Jesus sees hearts and loves us all so much. I realised that I was being too curious and created cheap titillation out of an issue which is very serious.
Last Saturday I ordered two books about Purgatory. Both are interesting reads and contain many prayers for the recently deceased and those souls currently in purgatory. A few days after receiving these books I was emailed two different prayer requests to pray for recently deceased relatives. I had never received such requests before and because of that see this as providential that God is pushing me in that direction to pray for souls in Purgatory.
My wife currently receives small messages from mainly Mary but sometimes Jesus. These are usually less than a paragraph in length. She is happy to ask Our Blessed Mother or Our Lord where a particular soul is especially if they have recently passed away. Having witnessed how upset Jesus becomes when he mentions that a soul has gone to the darkness we want to limit this to one request per person. If we discovered the soul had gone to hell it is upsetting for people to hear such news and we would stress that this information will occur.
The main focus I think is to pray for souls in Purgatory. Catholic Masses are vital for Holy Souls and many churches are closed meaning the faithful on earth can pray more to help free up the backlog of souls. All our Rosaries will help and St Gertrude Prayers plus many others.
Journeys in Purgatory
My brother passed away suddenly on April 16th 2019. He died alone of a intracranial haemorrhage.
We had difficult relations. He had struggled all of his 51 years wrestling with the legacy of a difficult upbringing. We were orphaned at a young age and this obviously left its mark on him and in me in different ways. He was my brother and there is that bond despite life’s troubles.
During lent of 2019 I would go out walking and praying saying Rosaries a few weeks before he died. I began praying for him although we were estranged from each other. I prayed that he would let go of feelings of wanting to gain revenge on others and that he’d learn to forgive. Looking back I can see the value of those prayers and the timing.
At the end of May 2019 my wife began receiving messages from Jesus by outer locution. I asked Jesus what date did he pass away and I was told it was the 16th Of April. His soul was now in lower purgatory. Jesus said it’s an unpleasant place but that it was necessary for his soul.
Jesus relayed a message via my wife from my brother to me:
Jesus : ‘Thank you, I am so sorry for all I did to you and I love you my dear Brother’
Jesus: Brother loves Christopher so much, so much. Though he is in a dark place now it is getting brighter.
Tom was a big fan of a band called ‘Japan’. While looking through my you tube search history of played songs, 7 Japan songs in a row had been listened to. I hadn’t played these so I was astonished:

From Little Prophet Messages
‘ Jesus said ‘ he wants you to think of him’.
We said a rosary for his soul immediately. After Little Prophet asked if it will help, Jesus said’ be patient’.
Recently I have read about how the lowest levels of purgatory are similar to hell. It’s a difficult place because the soul is purging itself of powerful attachments like addictions and negative ways of thinking. The prayers of loved ones will start to work after they are removed from this lower pit of purification.
By the 23rd of June 2019 my brother had reached mid purgatory. I had masses said for him and prayed many Rosaries for his soul. I had received an image in my head of him looking content and wearing smarter clothes. He was wearing a blue suit and looked much better.
Jesus was allowing me this unique opportunity to have updates about how his soul was doing and I was fired up to pray for him more and more as time went on.
My Uncle died in 1997 and despite being raised a Catholic he pronounced resolutely that he was an atheist . After I had helped my brother my focus went to his soul. Atheism is a real upset for God especially from baptised Catholics. Much time would be spent purging at the lower levels. Much intellectual disentanglement needs to occur in purgatory that was gathered over a life time. During prayer I could see my uncle. Early on his clothes were torn and shabby which was very unlike him. He also struggled to stand properly and seemed lost in the fog. Eventually after many prayers his clothes became smarter and I would talk out clearly during my rosary intentions for him to focus and pray with me as I prayed for him. I added the St Gertrude prayer to the end of every decade too. Eventually Jesus told us that he was in a part of purgatory called ‘ A Place Of Thought ‘. On earth he had been a soldier and a policeman so to see him with holes in his clothes was unpleasant.
I have ten relatives who are in Purgatory. Nearly all of them are Irish Catholics. Now I’m not saying being Catholic is an automatic ticket to being saved but I’d say it doesn’t do any harm. Jesus looks at the heart and ones life on earth is complex so it’s a mystery how God finally judges. I have two relatives on my English side who were not catholic but who are now in hell. Some of my Catholic relatives were church goers but had drinking issues.
After months of praying for my uncle I felt a prompting to pray for his sister my aunty Joan. She did go to church and visited Lourdes several times so I think needed my initial prayers less than my uncle .I had prayed enough for my uncle and now God wanted my prayers for her.
During October of 2019 Jesus informed us that my brother would be going to heaven on Christmas Day. Jesus I think felt the love I had for him and the care my wife and I took in caring for his soul.
My mother and grandmother had gone to Heaven after a 37 year holding in Purgatory during the summer of 2019. The gift that was given to me by Jesus to pray like this came to me when my wife received her prophetic gift. It’s like a prayer influencer type of gift. My wife has this too. So souls waiting in my family to move from purgatory we’re waiting for my gift to bloom to move them on to heaven. On earth in my family I was the youngest and the least esteemed.
During Christmas Day mass during deep prayer I saw in my mind my brother step into heaven . With a look of shocked relief he smiled like he had been born again. His gran was there to meet him .I viewed her looking up at him tapping him on the shoulder lovingly saying ‘Tom,Tom’. She called him this when he was a boy.
My brother grandmother and mother live in a small house which is hexagon shaped. During prayer Jesus allowed me a peep into my families life. I viewed this house aerially from above. They have modest dwellings with low ceilings but they are in heaven.
They are at peace and all are very happy.
