REVELATION OF MARCH 14, 1847

In this communication COMMUNISTS are openly designated by our Lord as a group secretly working to advance diabolical plots and anti-Christian principles in order to inflame all society. To stop them by obtaining God's mercy, our Lord orders Sister Mary personally to ask the Archbishop, in the Name of the Saviour, to inaugurate Holy Face Devotion.

TODAY after Holy Communion our Lord told me that the disaster caused by the flood with which we had been recently struck was only a forerunner of other punishments which Divine Justice is preparing for us if we do not appease the anger of God. He showed me the sins of blasphemy and profanation of Sunday under the symbols of two pumps, with which men guilty of these crimes are drawing the waters of God's wrath on our country, and which is in danger of being submerged if the Work of Reparation, which He has given us in His mercy as a means of deliverance, be not established.

After that our Lord told me that the Society known as the Communists had so far made only one outbreak, but that they were working secretly to advance their schemes. Then He added:

"Oh, if you only knew their secret and diabolical plots and their anti-Christian principles! They are waiting for a favorable day in order to inflame the whole country. To obtain mercy, ask therefore that this Work of Reparation be established by addressing yourself to him who through the bounden duty of his office can establish it."

"But, my Divine Master," I answered, "my superiors have already asked the Archbishop for this."

"That is not sufficient," our Lord replied. "It is you that I have chosen as the instrument and it is you who must ask for the Work to be established in My Name and on My Part."

I now beg to be told by the Prioress whether or not I am obliged to write to the Archbishop to acquaint him with this revelation for I believe I have twice received a divine command to do so.
