The Holy Face of Jesus
"Man is invited to repair the outrages to his God, and in a loving return He promises to restore His image in our souls! Let us, therefore, wipe the august Face of the Savior, soiled with spittle of blasphemes, and He will wipe our soul, soiled with the spittle of sin."
Sister Marie de Saint Pierre
Devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus
The Holy Face Devotion is designed for reparation and conversion. It provides hope and brings spiritual fruit on man's part to assist Our Lord in reclaiming all. Our Lord specifically promised that this devotion will defeat communism.
As requested by Our Lord Jesus Christ, the following prayers, and the "Golden Arrow" prayer which He dictated to Sr. Mary, are to be said each day, preferably before the Blessed Sacrament or before a picture of the Holy Face. On Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation, add the
Litany of the Holy Face of Jesus (below).
PRAYERS OF DEVOTION
(to be said daily)
Dear Lord, through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary,
I (we) offer You these prayers in reparation for the sins which
offend God the most in these modern times--the sins of
blasphemy and the profanation of Sunday and
Your Holy Days of Obligation:
Say one Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be To The Father
THE "GOLDEN ARROW" PRAYER
Dictated by Our Lord to Sr. Mary of St. Peter
(to be said daily)
May the most holy, most sacred, most adorable, most incomprehensible, and unutterable Name of God be always praised, blessed, loved, adored, and glorified, in Heaven, on earth, and under the earth, by all the creatures of God, and by the
Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ
in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar.
Amen
Holy Face Medals
This medal was cast by Mother Maria Pierina who recieved many revelations related to the devotion to the Holy Face. In Our Lords Words to her:
“By My Holy Face you will obtain the conversion of numberless sinners. Nothing that you ask in making this offering will be refused you. According to the care you take in making reparation to My Face, disfigured by blasphemers, I will take care of your soul, which has been disfigured by sin. I will reprint on it My Image and render it as beautiful as it was on leaving the Baptismal Font. I promise personal and spiritual protection to all who venerate this medal.”

Chaplet of the Holy Face
The purpose of the Chaplet of the Holy Face is to honor the five senses of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and of entreating God for the triumph of His Church, as well as to thwart evil and the snares of the devil. This Chaplet is composed of a cross, a Holy Face medal, and thirty-nine beads, six which are single beads, and thirty-three beads which are grouped into five sections of six beads each.
The thirty-three grouped beads represent the thirty-three years of the mortal life of Our Lord.
The first thirty recall to mind the thirty years of his private life, and are divided into five groups of six beads with the intention of honoring the five senses of Jesus; touch, hearing, sight, smell, and taste, and of rendering homage to all the sufferings which Our Lord endured to His Face through each of these senses during His Passion.
The single bead preceding each of the grouped beads is in honor of the specific sense that it is intended to honor.
The group of three beads recalls to mind the public life of Our Saviour.
The "Glory Be to the Father" is said seven times throughout the Chaplet to honor the seven words of Jesus upon the Cross, and to honor the seven sorrows of Immaculate Mary.
The Chaplet:
1. On the cross, make the Sign of the Cross and pray:
"O God, come to my assistance; O Lord make haste to help me. Glory be..."
2. On the single bead, in honor of the sense of touch of Jesus, pray:
"My Jesus Mercy," followed by the "Glory be..."
3. Pray on each of the six beads:
"Arise, O Lord! and let Thy enemies be scattered, and let them that hate Thee flee from before Thy Face."
4. On the single bead, in honor of the sense of hearing of Jesus, pray:
"My Jesus Mercy," followed by the "Glory be..."
5. Pray on each of the six beads:
"Arise, O Lord! and let Thy enemies be scattered, and let them that hate Thee flee from before Thy Face."
6. On the single bead, in honor of the sense of sight of Jesus, pray:
"My Jesus Mercy," followed by the "Glory be..."
7. Pray on each of the six beads:
"Arise, O Lord! and let Thy enemies be scattered, and let them that hate Thee flee from before Thy Face."
8. On the single bead, in honor of the sense of smell of Jesus, pray:
"My Jesus Mercy," followed by the "Glory be..."
9. Pray on each of the six beads:
"Arise, O Lord! and let Thy enemies be scattered, and let them that hate Thee flee from before Thy Face."
10. On the single bead, in honor of the sense of taste of Jesus, pray:
"My Jesus Mercy," followed by the "Glory be..."
11. Pray on each of the six beads:
"Arise, O Lord! and let Thy enemies be scattered, and let them that hate Thee flee from before Thy Face."
12. Pray on the single bead:
"My Jesus Mercy," followed by the "Glory be..."
13. Pray on the three beads:
"Arise, O Lord! and let Thy enemies be scattered, and let them that hate Thee flee from before Thy Face."
14. The chaplet is concluded by saying on the Holy Face:
"God, our Protector, look on us and look on the Face of Thy Christ."
