TRUE THIS IS
WHY GO TO MASS ?
1. At the time of your death, your greatest comfort will be the Masses that during your life you attended with fervor and devotion.
2. Every Mass you attended will accompany you in divine court and advocate for you to attain forgiveness.
3. With each Mass you can lessen the temporary punishment you owe for your sins, in proportion to the fervor with which you hear it.

10. A Mass heard while you live will benefit you much more than many can offer for you after death.
11. You spare yourself from many dangers and misfortunes which you might fall into if not for the Holy Mass.
12. Also remember that it shortens your Purgatory.
13. With every Mass you will increase your degrees of glory in Heaven. In it you receive the blessing of the priest, which God ratifies in heaven.

22. You can also earn Plenary Indulgence every Monday of the year by offering the Holy Mass and Communion in suffrage of the blessed souls of Purgatory. For the believers who can't hear Mass on Monday it's worth listening to it on Sunday with that intention.
23. It is pleaded that they apply all the indulgences in suffering of the Souls of Purgatory, for God our Lord, and they will reward you this charity.
24. The Holy Mass is the renewal of the Sacrifice of Calvary, the greatest act of worship to the Holy Trinity. That's why it's obligatory to listen to it every Sunday and holidays to save.
