The Three Necessary Conditions

There are three necessary conditions for receiving a plenary indulgence for doing any of the prescribed works we just learned. Each one is this trinity of conditions also adds has the bonus of adding to our Lenten journey. They are:

  • Sacramentally confess your sins
  • Receive Holy Communion. (“It is certainly better to receive it while participating in Holy Mass, but for the indulgence only Holy Communion is required”)
  • Pray for the intentions of the Holy Father. One Our Father and one Hail Mary fully satisfies this.
  • There is actually one more: You must “have the interior disposition of complete detachment from sin, even venial sin.”
