Blessed Fr. Rupert Mayer/movie

Post by Denise »

We watched this movie last night and it was very good. I had never heard of this Blessed before. He was beatified on May 3, 1987 by Pope JPII.

Rupert Mayer, a Jesuit priest and WWI veteran, preaches anti-Nazi sermons and rails against the Reich, despite being imprisoned three times.

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
