“Eternal Father, we offer Thee the Adorable Face of Thy Well Beloved Son for the honor and glory of Thy Holy Name and for the salvation of all men.”
—Prayer of Pope Bl. Pius IX
The devotion to the Holy Face is one of the most powerful devotions in the world.
With this booklet in hand, enter into the spiritual battlefield to which God calls us, making reparations and fighting blasphemy for the Kingdom of Heaven.
Many miracles are associated with the Holy Face, including the Shroud of Turin and the Veil of Veronica—but so few Catholics actually take advantage of this powerful devotion.
The devotion to the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ and particularly to His Holy Face is one of the oldest in Catholic Tradition. This devotion was practiced by great saints like St. Therese of Lisieux, St. Augustine of Hippo, St. Gertrude the Great, St. Mechtilde, St. Edmund, and St. Bonaventure.
This booklet will be the perfect tool to help you understand the important aspects and practices of devoting oneself to the Holy Face. With clear background information, everything you need to know to begin the devotion, and the many prayers included for your benefit, this booklet will become a treasured part of your prayer life.
Beginning in 1844, Our Lord appeared to Sr. Mary of St. Peter and expressed His desire that the world should know and practice this devotion in reparation for man's blasphemy against God. Through the efforts of Sr. Mary of St. Peter, Venerable Leo DuPont, and countless others, this devotion has become better known and more frequently practiced. However, many still fail to make reparation to the Holy Face and don’t obtain the many graces that come from this spiritual weapon.

This is a wonderful idea!!
I purchased a pack to give to our senior altar boys. The reception, so far, has been moderately acceptable. I expect more of a response as they have an opportunity to examine them in private, especially as we get closer to All Souls Day.
Beautifully arranged and explained images, even for very young children! My three year old will pore over this book, up close and personal, for ten minutes! It doesn't sound like a long time, but very impressive for his attention span. Thank you, Holy Heroes!!!
Getting ready for All Saints/Souls days!! As St Padre Pio would say, "We got souls to get out of Purgatory". We are the Church Militant. Let's get to it!
Although this scorecard is a marvelous teaching aid for kids, I was happy to buy the two pack so my adult sister and I could use it to do the First Five Saturdays at the same time. (This way, I don't have to keep reminding her about the steps.) :)
These cards are an invaluable teaching aid, for young people, as well as adults!
Beautifully done and convenient reminders of our duty to pray for the Holy Souls in November and of the plenary indulgences available. I am giving them to my senior group at church next week.
As new to the faith, I didn't know that such a thing as plenary indulgences for the holy souls in purgatory existed. I found this card to be extremely helpful in providing the guidance needed to participate in this. I appreciated having the instructions and a place to track my intensions. Also the artwork is gorgeous.
These prayer cards are very nice. I am giving them to my grandchildren.
Incredible book! I buy it for everyone who is having children!
I passed them out at Mass today
Very in formative, no long discussion, nicely listed requirements.
Thank you for giving us a way and reminder to pray for the Holy souls in purgatory.
Love these cards!
