HOLY FACE
REVELATIONS
The Holy Face of Jesus from the image of Veronica's veil
(The veil is kept in St. Peters Basilica, Rome.)
"Rejoice, My Daughter, because the hour
approaches when the most
beautiful work under the sun will be born."
Our Lord To Sister Mary of St. Peter
PROMISES OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
Revelations to Sr. Mary of St. Peter,
Discalced Carmelite Nun of Tours, France,
in favor of those who honor His Holy Face. Details of these
revelations are found in the book named The Golden Arrow
(the
autobiography of Sister Mary of St. Peter)
 | 1. By offering My Face to My Eternal Father, nothing will be refused, and the conversion of many sinners will be obtained. |
| 2. By My Holy Face, they will work wonders, appease the anger of God and draw down mercy on sinners. |
| 3. All those who honor My Face in a spirit of reparation will by so doing perform the office of the pious Veronica. |
| 4. According to the care they take in making reparation to My Face disfigured by blasphemers, so will I take care of their souls which have been disfigured by sin. My Face is the Seal of the Divinity, which has the virtue of reproducing in souls the image of God. |
| 5. Those who by words, prayers or writings defend My cause in the Work of Reparation, especially My priests, I will defend before My Father, and will give them My Kingdom. |
| 6. As in a kingdom they can procure all that is desired with a coin stamped with the King's effigy, so in the Kingdom of Heaven they will obtain all they desire with the precious coin of My Holy Face. |
| 7. Those who on earth contemplate the wounds of My Face shall in Heaven behold it radiant with glory. |
| 8. They will receive in their souls a bright and constant irradiation of My Divinity, that by their likeness to My Face they shall shine with particular splendor in Heaven. |
|
9. 1
will defend them, I will preserve them and I assure them of Final
Perseverance. |
FURTHER REVELATIONS FROM OUR DIVINE LORD CONCERNING REPARATION TO HIS HOLY
FACE,
as told to Sister Mary of St. Peter
...It is the express will of God that this devotion be established in every diocese; that it be most zealously propagated; and granted a papal brief so that it will never perish.
...This devotion is to have the TWOFOLD
PURPOSE OF REPARATION FOR
BLASPHEMY and REPARATION FOR THE PROFANATION OF SUNDAY and Holy Days of
Obligation, the two principal sins which in modem times are provoking the
anger of God. Sr. Mary said, "He then made me see that this frightful sin
wounds His Divine Heart more grievously than all other sins, showing me how
by BLASPHEMY the sinner curses Him to His Face, attacks Him publicly,
nullifies HIs Redemption, and pronounces his own judgment and
condemnation...The Savior made me understand that His justice was greatly
irritated against mankind for its sins but particularly for those that
directly outrage the Majesty of God--that is, Communism, Atheism, cursing,
and the desecration of Sundays and the Holy Days. He said, The executioners
crucified Me On Friday, CHRISTIANS CRUCIFY ME ON SUNDAY."
...This association is to be called Defenders of the Holy Name of God.
...Each day, in a spirit of REPARATION, members are to say one Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be To The Father, and the "Golden Arrow" prayer. On Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation ALL the prayers of reparation are to be said.
...Members must refrain from work on Sundays themselves, and do what is in their power to see that others stop all unnecessary servile work on the holy days of the Lord.
..Members should wear
a special cross with the words "Blessed be the Name of God", on one side,
and "Begone Satan!" on the reverse, which gives a special resourcefulness to
conquer the demon of blasphemy. (See below for details on
obtaining this cross)
...Every time one hears a curse he should repeat the two short
inscriptions on each side of the cross, and he will thus overcome the evil
one, and render glory to God.
...The association is to be place under the patronage of Saints: Michael, Martin of Tours, Louis, Veronica, and Teresa of Avila.
...Our Lord desires that His Holy Face be offered as the exterior object of adoration to all his children who would be associated with this work of Reparation. His Holy Face is the very Image of God. "Offer It unceasingly to My Father for the salvation of your country"
..."The treasure of My Holy Face in itself possesses such tremendous value that through It ALL the affairs of My household can readily be settled."
..."If you knew how pleasing the sight of My Face is to My Father."
...This was the first revelation from heaven concerning Communism. Our Lord said that this devotion would defeat it. It is, therefore, the sister-devotion to the Fatima devotion--necessary to save the world. (There are many knowledgeable people who say that the present "collapse" of Communism is a deception, and that these devotions are needed now more than ever before.)
..Our Lord told Sr. Mary, 'Woe to those cities that will not make this Reparation !"
...He said, "Sinners are snatched from this world and they are swept into hell like the dust that is carried away by the fury of a tornado. Have pity on your brothers and pray for them!"
...One can make a NOVENA OF REPARATION TO OBTAIN A FAVOR by saying the "Golden Arrow " prayer and "The Litany of the Holy Face" on nine consecutive days, preferably before the Blessed Sacrament or the picture of the Holy Face, and by going to Confession and Holy Communion.
These revelations and more are to be found in THE GOLDEN ARROW (TAN Books & Pub. Box 424, Rockford, Ill 61105 or www.tanbooks.com). "This book is based upon and quoting authentic French manuscripts emanating directly from the archives of the Monastery of Discalced Carmelites, Tours, France, where Sr. Mary of St. Peter lived and died in the odor of sanctity."
In the absence of a formal association in a parish, individuals should say the prayers and follow Our Lord's directives as best they can.
OUR LORD'S REVELATIONS WERE FOLLOWED BY 30 years of miracles attesting to the truth and power of this devotion. In 1885 Pope Leo XIII, by papal brief, established this devotion as an arch confraternity; and contrary to custom, immediately established it FOR THE ENTIRE WORLD. It was universally practiced until a few years before World War I. THE NEGLECT OF THIS DEVOTION AND OF OUR LADY'S REQUESTS AT FATIMA IN 1917, ESPECIALLY THE DAILY ROSARY, was followed by two world wars, the murder or enslavement of billions of people by Communism, and an unprecedented increase in sin and loss of faith. This pamphlet has been printed in an attempt to revive this extremely important devotion, which Christ wants to last until the end of time.
We offer a Holy
Face Cross (pictured below) that can be used with this devotion. We suggest
a small donation of $4.50 for a cross (our break-even cost), though we do
not make this mandatory for those that cannot afford it. Donation
information is on our
Donations page.
To request a Holy Face Cross, please click here to send us an email. Please include your full name and address to ship to, along with where you heard about our site, and if you are able to donate. You may also mail your request to the postal address below. Note, due to heavy demand and only two members in this apostolate, it may take up to 8 weeks to receive.
*
Please note that we are a small apostolate and have a small inventory of Holy
Face crosses, so we normally cannot send our crosses in bulk. We typically ask
each person to request their own cross, so it is more likely each cross will be
properly used with the devotion. If you have a special need to order a large
number of crosses, please see our
bulk orders page. Also note that some orders may take several weeks to
arrive since we are overloaded at times. Thank you for your patience!
