Maraming salamat sa regalo – Holy mass for my birthday! Most treasured really! At present, we are 8 sisters here, and 3 of us are from the Pearl of the Orient! Please pray God sends us more good vocations. Sr. M. Pacita, Lincoln, USA

Thank you so much! God kept my mama safe before and after her operation. He even provided me money for her hospital bills. [sms] Mary Claire, Gen. Santos, South Cotabato

I already received the starter kit and Fore and Aft. I love to read Fore and Aft. As soon as the crisis is over I will do my obligations because I want to be a legitimate member of PWHS. [sms] Mayvilyn Manalaysay, Navotas, Metro Manila

Let me congratulate you on the job well done! You have made many people realize about the plight of the poor suffering souls in purgatory. I’m one of them. I thank God for you (the PWHS) and my friend who referred me to you who became God’s instrument for that realization. Before, I used to offer Holy Mass for the deceased loved ones, now, I offer them for all the Holy Souls in Purgatory and always include them in my daily prayers. I’m glad to be a member of the PWHS and happy to know that I can help the Holy Souls in my own small way. Nora J. Petines, Lucena City, Quezon

I have already signed up for prayer pledges but today, Feast of the Precious Blood of Jesus, I recommit myself to this pledge for the Suffering Souls and for all workers of this apostolate. God bless. [e-mail] Bernadette Lim, Tarlac City, Tarlac

After reading Read me or Rue it, there was information in this book regarding The Association of the Holy Souls which is in Fatima, Portugal. I send Mass stipends sometimes to Monastery Pius XII, for the Holy Souls. I am so happy I can become a member now of the Prayer Warriors of the Holy Souls. May God bless you and may Mary wrap you in Her Mantle. In the Peace of Christ. [e-mail] Mary Lou Stachnik, New York, USA

I am so glad you put me on to this. With all the other troubles and tribulations going on in our world today, it is easy to see how we have neglected the holy souls and have left them to linger on and on in purgatory. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I will try to be better about including the holy souls in my prayers for the needs of our world—and other worlds. [e-mail] Connie Gilder, USA

I would like to express my grateful appreciation to the Trustees of the Monfort Foundation, Inc. for inviting me to the Second National Congress and 11th Foundation Day Celebration, this coming 19 July 2003. It is indeed a good opportunity not only to enhance our devotion to praying the Holy Rosary but also to combat the evils of this world that we are experiencing today, because we know for a fact that the power of prayer can change even the destiny of man. Most Rev. Jose F. Oliveros, D.D., Bishop of Boac

I already made translation of book "Read Me or Rue It" into Indonesian language and I already distributed to people in my church since couple months ago (with no charge). I would be pleased to give you a copy of the booklet perhaps you need it for your file. It means, soon you will have new member from Indonesia (maybe the first member from my country?). I feel so lucky to find your website from yahoo. I have a dream to promote devotion for poor souls in purgatory to Catholic people in my country since this devotion is not popular here. [e-mail] Pik Chin Ridwan, Jakarta, Indonesia

Today like any other day, I lift to Him your wholeness and your intentions and cares. May He sanctify your work and give you joy. [sms] Ma. Corazon Dela Cruz, Quezon City, Metro Manila

I have looked at the information you provided about your PWHS site.  This is well done and I’m sure that you are contacting people from all over the world.  What a tremendous tool we have with this modern day technology.  I look after our website here in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario Canada, however my prime function is clerical as I am an ordained Deacon in our diocese.  I enjoy working with the websites but certainly not as professional as your programmer. Keep up this great work in the service of our Lord Jesus. [e-mail] Larry, Ontario, Canada

I have the honor to write and inform you that I received the little book "Read Me or Rue It" from a very good friend of mine. I am very thankful and glad she gave me this little book for I am a member of our association in our town called "Samahan ng Nuestra Señora del Carmen". I read the Novena of Prayer for the Poor Souls in this little book. Our Patron Saints in our church are the Holy Cross and Saint Augustine plus other saints like Virgen del Carmen, Divine Mercy, lady of Our Perpetual Help and some other saints because our church is a Roman Catholic Church. Our Patron Saint, Nuestra Señora del Carmen honors the poor souls and the faithful departed. Amparo N. Muega, Santol, Tanza, Cavite

I like your web site. I’m trying not to be afraid of Purgatory, ‘cause you shouldn’t be afraid of pain when its for someone you love, like God. Whatever it takes for me to get squeaky clean for me to get into heaven to be with Him, I don’t know... just thought I would share that... your site rocks. [e-mail] Sara, USA

* * * * * * * * * *

I am honored that you would like to add my site to your links and web ring!  I am impressed with what your organization is doing, it has a great objective!  I will in turn add a link to your site! [e-mail] Kristine Mulholland, A Heavenly Basket, USA

Thanks for all your newsletters. I love reading a good material. Chit Kuo, Makati, Metro Manila

* * * * * * * * * *

I have just received the Fore & Aft magazine you sent via mail. Thank you! Well, I am delighted to know about the website for the Holy Souls. I have browsed everything...I submitted my pledge of prayer already for them most especially for the soul of my own father. It’s truly heartbreaking for me, traumatic that is. I could have not felt better now, could not have been what I am now, if not for that little booklet "Read me or Rue It". Thank the Lord our God that He uses people like you to have this kind of organization. [e-mail] Cheryl Soriao, Bacoor, Cavite

God Bless to all PWHS members. I’m hoping that your members will continue to grow as the years go by. [e-mail] Marites S. Bituin, Caloocan City

Thank you for considering/accepting me to be a Prayer Warrior of the Holy Souls. My husband and I heard it over the Radio Veritas last night. We hope to be a faithful Prayer Warrior doing our mission of helping the poor souls in purgatory with our humble prayers. [fax] Jorge & Belle Jose, Canlubang, Laguna

Salamat po sa pag-aalala ninyo sa akin at taos puso po akong nagpapasalamat lalong-lalo na at pinagdarasal po ninyo ako. Nalulungkot po ako sa dahilan na kahit konti ay wala man lamang akong maibigay sa dahilan ay wala po akong kalagayan. At sana ay hindi kayo magsasawa sa pagtulong tungkol sa aking espiritual na pangangailangan. Judith V. Obsid, Mandaluyong City, Metro Manila

… and with this goes the promise to pray the Rosary faithfully… Sr. Teresa A. Mabasa, D.C. & Curia Daughters of Charity

* * * * * * * * * *

It is indeed such a splendid and great endeavor that you have exerted all efforts to do not only an apostolate work for the dead but for the living as well. Menchie A. Abejar, Sampaloc, Quezon

* * * * * * * * * *

I thank you for remembering us during the mass, especially on our "B’ Days. I am so happy about our association which is getting wider day by day and there are many more persons to think and pray for the holy souls. Alice M., Dubai, UAE

Before anything else, let me congratulate you and the whole staff of the Monfort Foundation for the success of the 2nd National congress last July 19. It was really a well done job. Those with me, presidents of religious organizations in our parish were indeed very appreciative of the activities they witnessed that day. I, myself, realized that I am doing right when we prayed the Holy Rosary with Sis. Edna, particularly repeating St. Gertrude’s prayer every after each mystery. This is what I do every time I pray the Rosary. Furthermore, all our meetings of different religious organizations here end with that popular and powerful prayer of St. Gertrude to release souls in purgatory. Araceli Grepo, Gen. Trias, Cavite
