By Sister Mary of St. Peter

Our age is one of rampant blasphemy and profanation of the Lord’s Day. How can we combat these evils? Let Sister Mary of Saint Peter (1816-1848), a Carmelite nun of Tours in France teach you. Born in 1816, in Brittany, France, Sister Mary of Saint Peter lost her mother at age twelve. Soon after entering the Carmelite convent at Tours in 1839 at age 23, she began to receive remarkable and intimate communications from Our Lord. He told her of His great distressed over the evil actions and blasphemous declarations of the Marxist revolutionaries of the time. He also bemoaned the indifference and profanation of Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation, by even Christians. These errors, begun in Sister Mary’s time, have enormously grown in our present time. But our Lord provided Sister Mary over a century and a half ago with the means of fighting these catastrophes and making solemn reparation: devotion to His Holy Face. In addition, He gave her a prayer, a “Golden Arrow” fit to pierce His Heart in reparation for the painful “poison arrows” of blasphemy launched by so many poor sinners, even children. The Golden Arrow tells of both the life of Sister Mary of Saint Peter and her life’s work: the devotion granted to her by Jesus Himself, to His Holy Face. Approved by Pope Leo XIII and promoted by St. Thérèse of Lisieux half a century later, the devotion to the Holy Face may be the single most important devotion of our time that continues to remain relatively unknown. In our time, afflicted by the same grievous errors as Sister Mary of Saint Peter’s time, learn to adore Our Blessed Savior’s Holy Face and make reparation for these sacrileges and blasphemies.
