Receive Plenary Indulgence with the Pardon Crucifix

The Pardon Crucifix is not just another traditional crucifix of the Catholic Church. It is an instrument of pardon to all who carry it or wear it. The Pardon Crucifix offers indulgences to those who are truly sorry for their sins, receive the sacraments, go to the sacrament of Reconciliation, and kiss the cross with sincerity and a contrite heart.

As long as a person continues to receive the Sacraments and Communion regularly, carrying the Pardon crucifix up until the time of death with love and devotion in your heart guarantees forgiveness of all sins and entry into heaven.

Prayers to Receive Plenary Indulgences

The following pardon prayer offers a plenary indulgence when recited on a Friday in Lent and Passiontide, or when recited after Communion before an image of Christ crucified. On any other day the indulgence is partial. This was granted by the Sacred Apostolic Penitentiary in 1968, Vatican City:

† Look down upon me, good and gentle Jesus. Look down upon me, good and gentle Jesus, while before your face I humbly kneel, and with burning soul pray and beseech you to fix deep in my heart lively sentiments of faith, hope and charity, true contrition for my sins, and a firm purpose of amendment, while I contemplate with great love and tender pity your five wounds, pondering over them within me, calling to mind the words which David, your prophet, said of you, my good Jesus: "They have pierced my hands and my feet; they have numbered all my bones."

† Act of Dedication of the Human Race to Jesus Christ King. This prayer receives a plenary indulgence when it is publicly recited on the feast of our Lord Jesus Christ King. Otherwise the indulgence is partial.

Most sweet Jesus, Redeemer of the human race, look down upon us humbly prostrate before you. We are yours, and yours we wish to be; but to be more surely united with you, behold each one of us freely consecrates himself today to your Most Sacred Heart. Many indeed have never known you; many, too, despising your precepts, have rejected you. Have mercy on them all, most merciful Jesus, and draw them to your Sacred Heart. Be King, O Lord, not only of the faithful who have never forsaken you, but also of the prodigal children who have abandoned you; grant that they may quickly return to their Father's house, lest they die of wretchedness and hunger. Be King of those who are deceived by erroneous opinions, or whom discord keeps aloof, and call them back to the harbor of truth and the unity of faith, so that soon there may be but one flock and one Shepherd. Grant, O Lord, to your Church assurance of freedom and immunity from harm; give tranquility of order to all nations; make the earth resound from pole to pole with one cry: Praise to the divine Heart that wrought our salvation; to it be glory and honor for ever. Amen.

There are many prayers that can be said and deeds that can be done for plenary or partial indulgences. It seems that the Pardon Crucifix is the most popular method to gain indulgences because just wearing the crucifix gives pardon for sins.
