Personal Testimony of the Incredible Grace offered through Plenary Indulgences offered for the Holy Souls in Purgatory during a Jubilee year:
My uncle, my mother’s brother, was married five times and in his second marriage he had two sons. He and his second wife divorced when they were 5 and 1 ½ years old. She remarried and her new husband threatened my uncle and told him he could not see his sons ever again. Unfortunately he complied out of fear and did not pursue a relationship with them. My mother prayed about their reunion for over 20 years but saw no results.
During the Jubilee Year of 2000, my mother and my family made a visit to EWTN and heard a talk given by a priest about the Jubilee Indulgences. He suggested that we make a resolution to obtain a plenary indulgence, many times throughout the week, every day if possible, and offer each one for the holy souls in purgatory and ask them, in return, to pray for a prayer intention that we have been praying about for a long time that has not been answered. He said that the souls in purgatory are happy to do this because they are so grateful for the indulgences we obtain for them.
My mother was very inspired and motivated by this and knew immediately that she would do this and ask the holy souls in purgatory to pray for my uncle and his sons to be reunited. She began to do this right away.
About six months into it, God worked a miracle! My uncle's wife was transferred with her job from Cincinnati to Columbus, Ohio. While living there, they needed to have their air conditioner serviced and the technician assigned to the job was my cousin, one of his sons. My uncle did not know that his two sons were living in Columbus at the time. My cousin saw the name on the job order and thought, “Oh my! I am about to meet my dad!” Needless to say, they were reunited and have been close ever since. About a year later, my aunt was transferred back to Cincinnati and my cousins eventually moved there too.
What a blessing to be able to help the holy souls in purgatory and receive their help in return. This is the Communion of Saints. Is there a prayer intention that you have almost given up on? Why not give this pious practice a try during this Jubilee year?

I am a daughter of the Most High and of His Catholic Church. I introduce myself that way because I am so grateful for that! I have been married to Dan for 36 years and we have three young adult children - Brett, Nicole and Eryn - and three grandchildren - Cash, Bowie and Indy. I was employed as the Adult Faith Formation Coordinator at Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Peachtree City, Georgia for 14 years from December of 2008 to January of 2023. I earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Theology from Catholic Distance University and a certificate as a Catholic Spiritual Mentor from the Catholic Spiritual Mentorship Program.
I left fulltime ministry in the parish to concentrate on organizing events. I would like to extend my outreach to other parishes and organizations who would like to host a wonderful Adult Faith formation event but might not have the experience or confidence to do that on their own. I offer various services including but not limited to (fees are charged hourly for most services):
+ Event Planning: event planning from start to finish,
+ Consultation: consultation about an event,
+ Consultation about running a successful Adult Faith Formation Program.
+ I also offer different Adult Faith classes and courses that can be accessed by an individual or a group or can be taught by me via zoom or locally in person.
