"Beati quelli che piangono perche' saranno consolati." St. Matt. v. 5
Gesu' mio, abbi misericordia dell' anima di
Domenica Corra
Died March 3, 1927
Age 78 Years
O gentilissimo Cuore di Gesu', sempre presente nel Beato Sacramento, sempre consumato di ardente amore per le povere anime del Purgatorio abbi pieta' dell' anima del Tuo servo, trapassato. Non essere severo nel giudizio, lascia cadere qualche goccia del Tuo Prezioso Sangue sulle fiamme divoratrici e manda, o Clemente Salvatore, i Tuoi angeli per condurre il Tuo servo trapassato ad un luogo di refrigerio, di luce e di pace, ove riposino le anime dei fedeli trapassati alla grazia di Dio. Amen.
Accorda loro, o Signore, i riposi eterni e lascia risplendere loro la luce perpetua.
Sacro Cuore di Gesu' abbi pieta' di loro. Immacolato Cuore di Maria, prega per loro.
San Giuseppe, amico del Sacro Cuore prega per loro.
Oh giorno per quel anniversario, Clementissimo Gesu', accorda loro i riposi eterni.
Sette anni e sette quarantene.
