REVELATION OF APPROXIMATELY
NOVEMBER 10, 1843

Our Lord makes known that it is His Will that the Community of Tours make a Novena in Reparation for the contempt and outrageous blasphemies hurled against the Holy Name of God, and He again strongly urges the Community to print and disseminate the Prayers of Reparation.

THE SAVIOUR has had the goodness to communicate Himself to me, and He told me to ask if Reverend Mother would be willing to snatch the sword from His hands, since the spouses have full power over the Bridegroom. In order to do this, He asks that the Community make a Novena of Reparation using a formula of prayers similar to the first one made to obtain her cure. But the Saviour insisted however, that this Novena be made entirely in a spirit of Reparation for the outrageous blasphemies of which our nation is guilty and for the specific intention of obtaining mercy.

Our Saviour also said that since He chose the Community of Tours to be the first to learn of His sighs and His desires for the establishment of this Work, it was only fitting that from this Community He should likewise expect to reap His first consolations through their Novena of Reparation.

He urged me once more to ask that the prayers of atonement for blasphemies be printed and disseminated, emphasizing that it was His desire, however, that this Community should defray the expenses incurred in the printing, so that later He could shower upon this Carmel His greatest blessings and repay it a hundredfold for the amount of money spent.

I, therefore, beg once more, in the Name of Jesus, that this should be done, and we will see how He shall take care of all our needs. Truly, I can carry this heavy burden no longer. I beg, therefore, that this matter be seriously examined before God, and now having made these declarations, I believe my errand is completed, and my soul feels relieved.
