REVELATION OF NOVEMBER 19, 1844

Our Lord again deplores the sins of blasphemy which continue to outrage God's Holy Name, and He reiterates His desire for the erection of a Society of Reparation to atone for these crimes.

ALMOST eight months have passed since our Lord communicated Himself to my soul regarding the Work of Reparation. In the meantime He led me through a path filled with dryness, darkness and temptations. However, by the grace of God, I continued to recite the prayers of Reparation for blasphemies although I must admit that I have fallen somewhat into the snares of Satan who did everying in his power to make me grow sick of it.

Our Divine Lord now made known to me that blasphemers offend Him in a heart-rending manner, and that it was necessary to pray unceasingly to God for the favor of obtaining the establishment of the Work of Reparation. To incline God to grant this grace, we must offer to the Eternal Father the merits of our Lord and all His ardent desires to glorify the Name of His Father which always burned in His Heart while He lived on earth.

Our Lord then made me hear that mankind is unable to comprehend how enormous is the insult offered to God by blasphemy, and He explained that these sinners pierce His Heart and make of Him a second Lazarus, covered with sores.

He further told me that I, as it were, bandaged these divine sores and consoled Him in a singular manner by using my tongue to daily glorify the Holy Name of God, scorned and blasphemed by sinners, whenever I performed this exercise without seeking any gratifying consolations.

"Use every available means in your power to bring about the establishment of the Work of Reparation," our Lord told me. "For this purpose I give you all My merits that through them you may obtain this favor from My Father. Ask for this great grace in My Name, and it will be granted to you."

DECLARATION

I declare that it is I, myself, Sister Mary of St. Peter and of the Holy Family, unworthy Carmelite, who has received these Revelations regarding the Work of Reparation for blasphemy, in spite of my unworthiness, and that it is I who have written them in this tablet through obedience to my superiors. This I have done for the greater glory of God and to acquit myself of a duty of conscience, as I tremble at the sight of the mission given me by God. If our Lord's designs herein revealed are fulfilled, many souls will be saved.

I also declare that I have spoken in all truth and in the simplicity of my soul and that if it were necessary, I would be willing to attest to this by taking an oath. And now, believing it useless to keep these letters which I have copied here exactly, I will burn them.

SISTER MARY OF ST. PETER
AND OF THE HOLY FAMILY
