This book has excellent scriptural excepts to accompany the Rosary. Very easy to hold in one hand while holding the Rosary in the other. The brief prayers can easily and quietly be said in a public rosary setting while the first half of the Our Father or Hail Mary is being recited. These scriptural prayers are good meditation tools which combine a focus on the mystery of each decade in conjuction with the prayer for the Holy Souls. A great combination of prayers. The author also has a "Thirty-Day Devotion for the Holy Souls" which I recommend as a companion for daily prayer and meditation.

For those with a devotion to the rosary and the holy souls, this is a jem. Susan Tassone has filled a great need, and has provided an effective way to aid in releasing the souls in purgatory. Includes all four mysteries of the rosary, and contains the Fifteen Promises of the Blessed Mother. Provides a place for petitioner's notes. Great to use in private prayer or with the family.

I really love this book. It has wonderful prayers in it. I would recommend this book very highly. The Rosary is such a wonderful devotion. I am really glad I bought this book and am using this book daily when I pray the rosary.

A deeply scriptural accompaniment to this most ancient of Christian devotions. A delight for the heart and spirit.

This book,"The Rosary for the Holy Souls in Purgatory", is a SPLENDID BOOK!!!

Long ago, I used to find the Rosary very tiring, very time consuming. I used to sigh when I began to pray it, as I saw ALL THOSE FIFTY + beads to pray upon....

But now that I have small passages to reflect upon, the number is nonexistant! In fact, the passages inspire me; they give me energy and make me feel hopeful, especially when I'm moody or ill and I need a boost from somewhere. The passages arn't long, either(Hump. I don't even know WHY they are called passages anyway, because they are just only one or two sentences long!)

The Rosary is one of the best prayers to recite for The Holy Souls in purgatory, and for yourself in general. If you pray it everyday faithfully Our Lady will PROMPTLY deliver you from purgatory! Isn't that a good reason to pray it in simple form? Besides, what do you have to loose? You are pleasing God and Our Lady, You gain intercessors and new, ETERNAL friends, and you may gain virtues from the fruit of those mysteries you think of.

The holy souls in purgatory are awaiting your prayers!!!!!!!

How would you feel if you saw the face of Our Lord and were held back in burning flames and felt hopeless because you don't know when you would see him again?

How would you feel if no one prayed for you?

If the Holy Souls would pray for you untiredly for you once you helped them reach Heaven forever, dosen't it remind us of how GREAT their suffering WAS?

In my book, that's got to be pretty intense. The pain, I mean.

So do yourself a favor - and them a favor-, buy this book. It will be a great present both for yourself and for them. For when we remember the Holy Souls YEAR LONG, we give them Christmas early..

This is a WONDERFUL prayer that is not included in this book that I would love to share with you. The following prayer below, once recited, will help to release 1,000 SOULS FROM PURGATORY EACH TIME IT IS SAID!!

"Eternal Father, I offer thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, In Union with The Masses

said throughout the world today,

For All the Holy Souls in purgatory,

For sinners everywhere,

For sinners in the Universal Church,

Those in my own home,

And within my family.

Amen.

Praying the Rosary has long been one of my favorite devotions and I have been looking for a good aid in praying a "scriptural" Rosary for some time now. I could not have hoped to find one better than The Rosary for the Holy Souls in Purgatory. As another reviewer mentions, it is easy to hold in one hand, while holding a rosary in the other.

The scripture passages for each prayer are pertinent not only to each Mystery, but in underscoring the very real existence of Purgatory. This lovely little book will motivate one to genuinely care about and thus very much desire to offer prayers on behalf of the holy souls who are completely dependent upon us in aiding their release, even though we do not know the souls who benefit from our offered prayers. Since using this book, I have found praying the Rosary to be even more enriching spiritually. I would highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to pray a scriptural rosary and in turn aid the holy souls in purgatory.

I love using this scriptural rosary booklet in my rosary prayers for the souls in purgatory and for general use. The scriptures that have been selected focus the attention on all elements of purification and holiness and they are uplifting and encouraging.

The booklet does not give the introductory rosary prayers for the 1st beads so the very beginner might be a little lost with this guide alone, but for most people that will not be a drawback. Beyond the rosary, there are other prayers and litany for the holy souls that I have never found elsewhere.

I just received this little booklet it is quite nice

I would have enjoyed a booklet that could lie flat

on a kneeler, But this is alright ir is a five star

work...Thank you

I saw the author one night on EWTN and purchased this book right after. The book clearly explains how to pray the rosary so it would be good for those who are not catholic and it is very easy to follow. I like to take the book with me to adoration and use it to say the rosary. I have also starting purchasing other books by this author and have been very pleased. Anyone who has lost a loved one will find healing with this and other books by the author.

I can only echo what other reviewers have said about Ms. Tassone's books. I've enjoyed them all, and in fact just ordered three more copies before writing this. The reason I named this review as I did is because Tassone's books are a great size! They are not full paperback size, they are closer to pocket size. However, they're not so tiny that they're hard to handle. As another reviewer said, they fit well in one hand while holding the Rosary in the other. I have a Bible cover that has a pocket in the front, and I've found that any one of Tassone's books will fit well in there if I want to take one to Chapel with me. Plus, the writing on these is large enough for my middle-aged eyes with bifocals. I've given away a pile of these to people just learning the value of the Rosary, both Protestant and Roman Catholic. Just one problem-buy one of her books and you'll probably end up buying all of hers!
