Have you heard about the devotion of reparation to the Holy Face of Jesus?
It is a devotion that was given by Our Lord to a Carmelite Nun named Sister
Mary of St. Peter in France, 1844, and
allows us to make reparation for the sins which
offend God. Many first class miracles have been associated with this
devotion over many years which have been recognized as authentic by the
Catholic Church. These miracles attest to the authenticity of the
revelations from Our Lord to Sister Mary of St. Peter.
This devotion was universally practiced before World War I but has since
become scarcely known. This site has been created in an attempt to revive
this important devotion.
In 1885, to bring attention to the importance of this devotion, Pope Leo XIII
established this special devotion as an arch confraternity; and
contrary to custom, He immediately established it for the ENTIRE WORLD.
Many wonderful promises are attached to this devotion, which can be seen on
our Revelations page in the menu above. To understand how this devotion came
about and the miracles associated with it, see our Timeline page as well.
