There are Four General Ways, and Numerous

                             Specific Ways to Obtain an Indulgence


         The general ways:

         1.  A partial indulgence is granted to the faithful who, while carrying out their
         2.  duties and enduring the hardships of life, raise their minds in humble trust to
             God and make, at least mentally, some pious invocation (e.g., “Jesus I trust in
             you”, “Lord, have mercy on me, a sinner”, “Jesus, Mary, and Joseph”, “All for
             Jesus”, etc.).

         This first grant is intended to serve as an incentive to the faithful to put into practice the
         commandment of Christ that "they must always pray and not lose heart" (Luke 18:1)
         and at the same time as a reminder so to perform their respective duties as to preserve
         and strengthen their union with Christ.

         Romans 12:12 Rejoicing in hope, . . . patient in tribulation, persevering in prayer.

         Ephesians 6:18 With all prayer and supplication pray at all times in the Spirit, and
         therein be vigilant in all perseverance and supplication.

         Colossians 3:17 Whatever you do in word or in work, do all in the name of the Lord
         Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

                         as a sacrifice?

                         What you:
                         • Do not like

                         • Did not choose           Why do they call it Rush
                         • Cannot change           Hour? We haven’t moved in
                                                        10 minutes!!











                                                   Accept with trust & offer with love
                                                           “Jesus, I trust in you!”
