A really spooky but lovely thing just happened to me. I just finishing watching this lovely video below on the Purgatory
The story goes that Blessed Catherine Emmerich was very sick one time as was her dear sister who nursed her so a priest took over. He heard knocking on glass and Catherine reported that this was the Holy Souls asking for prayers. So spooky but nice, I was envious. Anyway I wished they would do this for me when a mass card I had hid for my dead grandmother fell at once to the floor, from where I had left it behind a picture on the wall! I just love this stuff, they can spook me all day. Praying for my grandmother as we speak
I just posted this on another thread but it seems appropriate for this one too. Before receiving Communion once (several years ago) during the month of the Holy Souls, November, it occurred to me to offer my Communion up for EVERY one of my ancestors going back to the very beginning. I received and once I had done so, I heard discordant music and distant screams which I immediately connected to my petition and those ancestral souls who were suffering. The celebrant stopped and looked around confused, the congregation were also looking around in confusion, the celebrant stopped and said 'Can anyone else hear the noise?' No-one responded, the noises stopped and he continued. That was one Mass I won't forget and my petition clearly had some effect.
