The Golden Arrow​

The Autobiography and Revelations of Sister Mary of St. Peter on Devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus

In Tours, France, during the 1840's a young Carmelite nun received a series of revelations 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 "Revolutionary men" (the Communists)--through whom God is allowing the world to be chastised for its unbelief--as well as for the blasphemies of the atheists and freethinkers and others, plus, for blasphemy and the profanation of Sundays by Christians. Specifically, this devotion is the divine tool given by God to defeat Communism, but it is also an instrument given to the individual devotee as a seemingly unfailing method of appealing to God in prayer--through adoration of His Holy Face and Name. Our Lord gave Sister Mary a short but powerful prayer called "The Golden Arrow," by which a person can "shoot directly into the Heart of God" to heal the wounds inflicted on It by the malice of sinners. The editor says this devotion brought St. Therese to her great sanctity. Anyone who is searching for a spiritual method for fighting Communism and its programs and/or who is searching for a virtually infallible method of prayer will be delighted with The Golden Arrow.

Spiritual Lenten Way of the Cross for Children

Picture
A most grateful thank you to Mary Ann Scheeler for sharing this lovely activity she created!

Begin with a large sheet of paper or cardboard which you can tape or hang on the wall if you wish. First, draw the mountain, the paths, and pitfalls on the paper.  It's not meant to be the Stations of the Cross, but a Spiritual Lenten Way of the Cross for children through thought and activity.  The prayers are adapted from the Advent Spiritual Crib, and from a book called Lent for Children – A Thought a Day, and some Mary Ann made herself.


Everyone will draw/create theirs a little differently. The printables have almost three of everything. If you have one child, you will only need one of everything and if you have more children you might need to print out more. Some of the images like Jesus, or Mary, or Veronica, etc. there is only one, because they are extra special. The layout is something of the large mountain of Calvary, then there will be the long path, depending on how you draw it, could be steep, could be winding, or a little of both. The rest of the days are drawn along the path, wherever you want them. You might start low and each day ascend a little higher, or you might just draw them wherever you think they fit. Some things like the crosses will probably be at the top. The very last day, the tomb, is separate, and would be off to the side of Mount Calvary. ​​

Download the two files below and enjoy a wonderful, memorable experience with the family for Lent! God bless!
