Pauta: The Museum of the Holy Souls in Purgatory - Rome
Descrição: March 5, 2025, Rome, Italy: The â?? Museum of the Holy Souls in Purgatoryâ?? housed in a room of the small neo-Gothic church of the Sacred Heart of Suffrage (Chiesa del Sacro Cuore del Suffragio) in Rome, Italy on March 5, 2025 is one of a kind in the world as it pretends to offer undeniable proofs of the existence of Purgatory. - Pictured: Burn mark left in Sarralbe (Lorraine, France) on 21 December 1838 by the deceased Joseph Schitz on the German language prayer book of his brother Georges touching it with the end of the five fingers of his right hand, while asking for the suffrage prayers to repair his little piety in life. - The tiny century-old â??Piccolo Museo Del Purgatorioâ?? holds a collection of bibles, prayer books, tabletops, and articles of clothing said to have been singed by the hands of souls in purgatory.

These testimonies, circumstantiated and each with a unique history, mostly date to the 18th and 19th centuries and were motivated by requests for prayers or memorial masses to reduce the deceasedâ??s time in purgatory and hasten their (Credit Image: © Vandeville Eric/Abaca vi
