The Tremendous Value of the Holy Mass
Catholic Quote, Valpariso, Ne. 68065
At the hour of death the Masses you have heard will be your greatest consolation,
Every Mass will go with you to judgement and plead for your pardon.
At every Mass you can diminish the temporal punishment due to your sins, more or less, according to your fervor.
Assisting devoutly as Mass you render to the Sacred Humanity of our Lord the greatest homage.
He supplies for many of your negligences and omissions.
He forgives you all the venial sins which you have never confessed.
The power of Satan over you is diminished.
You afford the souls in purgatory the greatest possible relief.
One Mass heard during your life will be of more benefit to you than many heard after your death.
You are preserved from many dangers and misfortunes which would otherwise have befallen you.
You shorten your purgatory by every Mass.
Every Mass wins for you a higher degree of glory in heaven.
You receive the priest's blessing, which our Lord ratifies in heaven.
You kneel amidst a multitude of holy angels, who are present at the adorable sacrifice with reverential awe.
You are blessed in your temporal goods and affairs.
Every time we assist at Mass we should, beside our other intentions, offer it in honor of the saint of the day.
When we hear Mass and offer the Holy Sacrifice in honor of any particular saint or angel, thanking God for favors He bestowed on Him, we afford him a great degree of honor, joy, and happiness, and draw his special love and protection on us.
