Bear the fruit of repentance now (Mt 3:8).
"God does not stand before man as a stranger. He has indeed given man his law, but that law is also man's law in the highest sense. It is man's duty to align his whole being according to this common 'law of the Spirit'. This, however, requires a courageous admission of one's own errors."
(Eduard Profittlich, 1936)

Prayer Testimonies
Eduard Profittlich is an example to us sisters in Pirta, of how to remain faithful to our faith. In Pirita Monastery, the sisters pray daily through his intercession, asking for God's mercy and grace,
Mother Vimala OSSS, Pirita Monastery
Eduard Profittlich is a model for all Catholics in Estona, a sign of his devotion and self-sacrifice is good example to every Catholic in Estonia. The memory of Archbishop Profittlich gives strength to remain faithful to the Lord in difficult moments in our life.
Toomas Abiline, historian
The beatification of Eduard Profittlich would certainly bring much grace and blessing to the Church and Estonia, as Christians all over the world would turn to his intercession in prayer. He is a model of the courage and faithfulness and I often pray for his intercession.
Arno Humal, student
I pray unceasingly for the needs of the Estonian Catholic Church under the care of the Servant of God. He was our Shepherd and the builder of the Church in the Land of Mary. He has also supported us in many ways in his intercession without our acknowledging it. We have a bishop, an active parish children's ministry, and God continually sends grace to our little Church in Estonia. Even in recent history, two popes have visited us. This is a sign that he lives in His glory and we are always in his prayers.
