Plenary
Indulgences
This list is a
convenient compilation of all the ways to obtain a plenary indulgence.
Note that in addition
to the
described work, obtaining a plenary indulgence also has the following
conditions
 |
Sacramental
confession. A single sacramental confession suffices for gaining several
plenary indulgences;
but Communion must be received and prayer for the intention of the
Sovereign Pontiff must
be recited for the gaining of each plenary indulgence.
|
|
Eucharistic
Communion.
|
|
Prayer
for the intention of the Sovereign Pontiff. The condition of praying for
the intention of the
Sovereign
Pontiff is fully satisfied by reciting one Our Father and one Hail Mary;
nevertheless, each one is
free to recite any other prayer according to his piety and devotion.
[Creed] |
|
It
is further required that all attachment to sin, even venial sin, be
absent. If the latter disposition is in any way
less than perfect or if the prescribed three conditions are not
fulfilled, the indulgence will be
partial only, saving the provisions given in
Norms
34 and 35. which is accessible through
reading the Internet Link displayed at the bottom of this page.
