Priests and Nuns in Purgatory
In the morning, while I was praying, the angel appeared and took me to Purgatory.
In this place in Purgatory, I saw a large group of souls, all women, working and cleaning, but when they saw me, they stopped their work and approached me. They said, “We were nuns while we were on earth.”
Then a group of men came. These men were priests, some younger and some older. These souls, both men and women, were all very poorly dressed.
They started to speak to me, and they all said, “Valentina, it is so good to know you. Your name is very popular. Please help us. We did many wrong things while living on earth, so now we have to pay for it. We probably have to stay here a long time to be purified. Pray for us and intercede for us, and ask the good Lord to be merciful to us.”
“I will help you as much as I can,” I said to them.
I continued to chat with them for a while. They asked me, “Why do you people on earth wear masks in church? We heard there was a virus.”
I answered, “Yes, there was this very bad virus, and the government told us we must also wear masks in church. But I tell you, the first time I put the mask on my face when I went to church, our Lord told me, ‘Take off that ugly thing from your face,’ and that I embarrassed Him in front of all of Heaven.”
Then one of the younger priests turned around and said, “Really, our Lord said all of that?”
I replied, “Yes, really and truly He said that. Our Lord also told me that those who wear masks in church will spend a lot of time in Purgatory.”
The young priest said, “Oh, is that so?”
I could see this group of nuns and priests had a lot of suffering.
I asked them, “But what did you do to be here in Purgatory?”
“We disobeyed the Commandments from our Lord. We have been stripped of our garments as we did the wrong things. We offended our Lord,” they said.
Later, I offered them all in my prayers and at Holy Mass.
Lord, have mercy on these souls.
