The  Spiritual Communion 

By a rescript of November 24, 1922 the Sacred Congregation of Indulgences approved the following formula for a spiritual communion:

"Oh Jesus I turn toward the holy tabernacle where You live hidden for love of me. I love you, O my God.  I cannot receive you in Holy Communion.  come nevertheless and visit me with Your grace.  Come spiritually into my heart.  Purify it.  Sanctify it.  Render it like unto Your own.  Amen."

Lord, I am not worthy that thou shoulds enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.

An  indulgence of 500 days, if thrice repeated.  (129 The Raccolta 1944)

It was the Cure of Ars who said.  "A spiritual communion acts on the soul as blowing does on a cinder - covered fire which was about to go out.  Whenever you feel your love of God growing cold, quickly make a spiritual communion.

MESSAGE OF WORLD-WIDE IMPORTANCE

Devotion to the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary

This Message was confided by Our Lord to Berthe Petit, a humble Franciscan Tertiary, born on January 23, 1870, at Enghien, Belgium:

"Teach souls to love the Heart of My Mother pierced by the very sorrows which pierced Mine."  (December 25, 1909)

At the Holy Hour (March 25, 1912) the Blessed Virgin spoke thus:  "I have called myself the Immaculate Conception.  To you I call myself Mother of the Sorrowful Heart.  This title willed by my Son is dear to me above all others.  According as it is spread everywhere, there will be granted graces of mercy, spiritual renewal and salvation."

PRAYER
(Composed by Berthe Petit)

Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary, dwelling pure and holy, cover my soul with your maternal protection so that being ever faithful to the voice of Jesus, it responds to His love and obeys His Divine Will.

I wish, O, my Mother, to keep unceasingly before me your co-redemption in order to live intimately with your Heart that is totally united to the Heart of your Divine Son.

Fasten me to this Heart by your own virtues and sorrows.  Protect me always.

"Jesus, Mary, I love You, Save Souls"
