Devotion & Novena to the Holy Face of Jesus
By: Elaine Jordan
In Tours, France a young Carmelite nun, Sister Marie de Saint-Pierre (1816-1848), received a series of revelations in the 1840s from Our Lord about a powerful devotion He wished to be established worldwide – the devotion to his Holy Face.

The express purpose of this devotion was to make reparation for the
blasphemies and outrages of the ‘revolutionaries’ of that time, the
blasphemies of atheists, freethinkers and Masons, and for blasphemy and
the profanation of Sundays by Catholics.
We read in her autobiography:
“Then He unfolded His Heart to me, concentrating therein the powers of
my soul, and addressed me thus: ‘My Name is everywhere blasphemed; even
little children blaspheme it.’ And He made me understand how that
dreadful sin pierced and wounded His Heart more than all other crimes.
“By blasphemy, the sinner outrages Him to His Face, attacks Him openly,
and pronounces upon himself his own judgment and condemnation. Blasphemy
is a poisoned arrow, wounding His Divine Heart continually. He told me
that He would give me a “Golden Arrow” with which to wound Him
delightfully and heal the poisonous wounds caused by sin.”
Our Lord then dictated to Sr. Mary the following Golden Arrow prayer,
assuring her that every time she said it, she would lovingly wound His
Heart.
The Golden Arrow Prayer
May the most holy, most sacred, most adorable, most incomprehensible and
ineffable Name of God be forever praised, blessed, loved, adored, and
glorified in Heaven, on earth and in Hell, 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.
Our Lord told Sr. Mary on March 16, 1844: “Oh if you only knew what
great merit you acquire by saying even once, ‘Admirable is the Name of
God!’ in the spirit of reparation for blasphemy.”
