Purgatorian Archconfraternity; Procedure of the Membership

While graces are won for the members of the Archconfraternity through the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, nonetheless the processing and mailing of the certificates is an important part of the work. Here is a short overview of the procedure.

1. On the 14th of each month, Rev. Father Michael Mary, C.SS.R. (or his delegate) reviews incoming applications and contributions.
		2. A postcard is sent to you acknowledging the receipt of your application. Each postcard has a reference number. This number must be used in case of any questions. (Once you have received your certificate(s), the postcard is no longer necessary and may be discarded.)
3. Father passes the applications on to the secretariat of the Archconfraternity who enters all names and data in our registers.
		4. Once all information has been entered, the certificates are printed. Every certificate is given a unique reference number. This reference number can be found at the bottom of every certificate next to the signature. These numbers should be cited when submitting any questions or difficulties regarding the membership.
5. Finally, the certificates are sent out to the members. Once you have received your postcard, please allow 6-8 weeks to receive your certificate(s).
