The Holy Face of Jesus – Christmas Oil

The Holy Face of Jesus is dedicated to making reparation for the blasphemy against Our Lord

Devotion to the Holy Face was revealed by Jesus to Sr Marie of St Peter. She was a Carmelite nun of Tours in France in the 19th century. The primary purpose of the devotion is to make reparation for sins against the first three commandments. They are; Denial of God (atheism/communism), Blasphemy, and the profanation of Sundays and Holy Days.

The devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus was eventually approved by Pope Leo XIII in 1885. Also, he established the devotion as an Arch-confraternity for the whole world.

In January 1849 Pope Pius IX had the relic of Veronica’s veil placed for public veneration in Rome. On the third day of the exposition, the image of the veil became transformed. It was formerly very faint. The Divine Face appeared distinctly as if living. Also, it was illuminated by a soft light. Reproductions of the veil touched to the original were sent abroad for veneration.

Promises given to Sr. Marie of St Peter for the devotion of reparation:
All those who honor my face in a spirit of reparation will by doing so perform the office of the pious Veronica. According to the care they take in making reparation to my Face, disfigured by blasphemers, so will I take care of their souls which have been disfigured by sin. My Face is the seal of the Divinity, which has the virtue of reproducing in souls the image of God.

Those who by words, prayers, or writing defend My cause in this work of reparation I will defend before My Father, and will give them My Kingdom.

By offering My Face to My eternal Father, nothing will be refused, and the conversion of many sinners will be obtained.

By My Holy Face, they will work wonders, appease the anger of God, and draw down mercy on sinners.

As in a Kingdom, they can procure all that is desired with a coin stamped with the King’s effigy, so in the Kingdom of Heaven, they will obtain all they desire with the precious coin of my Holy Face.

Those who on earth contemplate the wounds of My Face shall in Heaven behold it radiant with glory.

They will receive in their souls a bright and constant irradiation of My Divinity, that by their likeness to My Face, they shall shine with particular splendor in Heaven.

I will defend them, I will preserve them and I assure them of Final Perseverance.
