” I accept with highest pleasure what is offered to Me for the poor souls, for I long inexpressibly to have near Me those for whom I paid so great a price. By the prayers of thy loving soul, I am induced to free a prisoner from piurgatory as often as thou dost move thy tongue to utter a word of prayer”
Well Known Prayer:
“Eternal Father, I offer you You the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus Christ, in union with the Masses said throughout the world today, for all the Holy Souls in Purgatory, for sinners every where, those in the Universal Church, in my home, and in my family”
On his own feast day, St. John appeared to Gertrude and placed her by the wounded side of Jesus.
She could hear His beating Sacred Heart. “Why is it O beloved of God,” she asked him, “that you who
Rested on His bosom at the Last Supper have said nothing of what you experienced then?” St.John told her:
“It was my task to present to the first age of the Church the doctrine of the Word made Flesh which no
human intellect can ever fully comprehend. The eloquence of that sweet beating of His Heart is reserved for
the last age for a world grown cold and torpid that it may be set on fire with the love of God.”
