St.Margaret Mary Alacoque

St. Margaret was a Religious Nun of the Visitation Order. She is the Apostle of the Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. She was born at Lhautecour, France on July 22, 1647 and died at Paray-le-Monial on October 17, 1690. On May 25, 1671, she entered the Convent of the Visitation Convent at Paray-le-Monial, where she was subjected to many difficulties to prove her vocation. On November, 1672, pronounced her perpetual vows. Jesus appeared to Margaret Mary and instituted the Devotion to the Sacred Heart. Her body is placed under the altar in the chapel of the Sisters of the Visitation at Paray. Although she died on October 17th, her feast is celebrated on October 16th. St. Margaret Mary was proclaimed a Saint (Canonized) by Benedict XV in 1920. The Twelve Promises of Jesus to Saint Margaret Mary for those devoted to His Sacred Heart (from Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque's vision of Jesus): 1. I will give them all the graces necessary for their state of life. 2. I will establish peace in their families. 3. I will console them in all their troubles. 4. They shall find in My Heart an assured refuge during life and especially at the hour of their death. 5. I will pour abundant blessings on all their undertakings. 6. Sinners shall find in My Heart the source of an infinite ocean of mercy. 7. Tepid souls shall become fervent. 8. Fervent souls shall speedily rise to great perfection. 9. I will bless the homes where an image of My Heart shall be exposed and honored. 10. I will give to priests the power of touching the most hardened hearts. 11. Those who propagate this devotion shall have their names written in My Heart, never to be effaced. 12. The all-powerful love of My Heart will grant to all those who shall receive Communion on the First Friday of nine consecutive months the grace of final repentance; they shall not die under my displeasure, nor without receiving their Sacraments; My heart shall be their assured refuge at that last hour.
