For Catholics in the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas, a plenary indulgence is granted this year for those who attended the Mass of the Conversion of St. Paul celebrated in our parishes this weekend, and who fulfill the other requirements as follows:
- pray for the intentions of the Holy Father
- go to confession
- turn away from serious sin
The plenary indulgence removes not the guilt of the sin (this is done in confession) but the debt owed because of the sin. This debt can be paid either in this life, through prayers and sufferings, or in purgatory. The plenary indulgence offered this year removes all the temporal punishment due to sin. It can be applied to the life of one seeking the indulgence or to the life of a soul in purgatory.
