Memorial Prayer for the Suffering Souls in Purgatory

Almighty God, Father of Goodness and love, 
have mercy on the Poor Suffering Souls,
and grant Thine aid:

To my dear parents and ancestors;
Jesus, Mary, Joseph! My Jesus Mercy.
To my brothers and sisters and other near relatives;
Jesus, Mary, Joseph! My Jesus Mercy.
To my benefactors, spiritual and temporal; etc.
To my former friends and subjects;
To all for whom love or duty bids me pray; 
To those who have suffered disadvantage or harm through me; 
To those who have offended me; 
To all those who are especially beloved by Thee;
To those whose release is at hand; 
To those who desire most to be united with Thee;
To those who endure the greatest suffering;
To those whose release is most remote;
To those who are least remembered; 
To those who are most deserving on account of their services to the Church; 
To the rich, who now are the most destitute; 
To the mighty, who now are as lowly servants;
To the blind, who now see their folly; 
To the frivolous, who spent their time in idleness;
To the poor, who did not seek the treasures of Heaven; 
To the tepid, who devoted little time to prayer; 
To the indolent, who were negligent in performing good works;
 To those of little faith, who neglected the frequent reception of the Sacraments; 
To the habitual sinners, who owe their salvation to a miracle of grace; 
To parents who failed to watch over their children;
To superiors who were not solicitous for the salvation of those entrusted to them; 
To the souls of those who strove for hardly anything but riches and pleasures; 
To the worldly-minded, who failed to use their wealth and talents in the service of God; 
To those who witnessed the death of others, but would not think of their own; 
To those who did not provide for the great journey beyond, and the days of tribulation; 
To those whose judgment is so severe because of the great things entrusted to them; 
To the popes, rulers, kings and princes;
To the bishops and their counselors; 
To my teachers and spiritual advisers;
To the deceased priests of this diocese; 
To all the priests and religious of the whole Catholic Church; 
To the defenders of the Holy Faith; 
To those who died on the battlefield;
To those who are buried in the sea; 
To those who died of stroke or heart attack; 
To those who died without the last rites of the Church; 
To those who shall die within the next twenty-four hours; 
To my own poor soul when I shall have to appear before Thy judgment seat; 

V. O Lord, grant eternal rest to all the souls of the faithful departed, 
R. And let perpetual light shine upon them. 
V. May they rest in peace. 
R. Amen.
