Beautiful story. Thank you for posting it. I pray for the souls in purgatory every night.

Not my understanding of purgatory. It is not half way between heaven and hell, nor a place that gives the unsaved a second chance. Rather a place where only the saved go. The anti room to heaven where the bride is prepared for the wedding. Now I am Lutheran and thus not an expert on this Catholic doctrine. Catholics can you help out here?

Purgatory is a false doctrine that allows for salvation apart from Christ.
—if it’s not in the Bible it’s just a man-made fantasy.

For some reason, I believe that when we pray for souls gone, it gives them a brief relief of their suffering in purgatory. I will always believe that, don’t know where the idea came from...
