This is an excellent book to read during Lent or any time. I guess it was in 1997, I read this during Lent. Oh my, talk about hitting me hard. I cried the whole time I read this. I cannot tell you the effect it had on me. I saw the Passion of Our Lord in a whole different light. Mel Gibson's movie cannot compare, although he took some things from Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich's writing.

Devotion to the souls in Purgatory contains in itself all the works of mercy, which supernaturalized by a spirit of faith, should merit us Heaven. de Sales
