  • One of the most powerful devotions in history, and one that keeps surfacing around the world, is the Holy Face (from the Veil of Veronica and the Shroud of Turin). What is so powerful about this and how do we differentiate one image of Christ from another? How did they come to be? Fr. Chris Alar explains this incredible gift of grace.

    This priest is teaching the truth. I’ve had a devotion to the holy face of Jesus Christ the golden arrow prayer just like when this priest told us to pray the left shoulder wound prayer of Jesus Christ. It is so powerful. His face has so much power, and it needs to be honored, and we need to do reparation and honor of his holy face. I joined the confraternity in France of the holy face, and I ask God to bless all of you, and may you all have a devotion to his face

    One of my favorite in the blue Pieta prayer book are The Three Very Beautiful Prayers for the dying. I pray these every night for 'all the people dying in the world this day' so that everyone will say yes to God's great Mercy at the moment of death so their souls will make it to Heaven. All of these souls will call on the most Holy Name of Mary before it is too late. Everyone dying, every day, will get to Heaven!!

      Hi, I too have this devotion,as God is not limited by time, I pray for all my dead relatives and friends and ask God to let them hear me saying the prayers in the hour before they die. I also say the for a woman and a man for God to use as he sees fit. I often say these prayers in adoration. It was nice to read about someone with the same devotion. I also collect the order of service from funerals to say them for these people too! God bless your Holy prayers!🎉

    Two years ago I visited the Shrine of the Holy Face where the veil of Manopello is kept.
    My cousins and I walked in to the shrine at the tail end of veneration some 10-15 minutes before the veil was returned to its original spot. Praise God!
    We had no idea beforehand that it was being exposed and venerated that day.
    We ended our own (personal) 10 day pilgrimage at Manopello praying before the Face of Jesus and processing with the Priest as he returned the veil back to its original spot high above the altar. It was surreal! What a great blessing!
    Needless to say, I was so happy and so grateful to the Lord for such an “undeserved” gift.
    May God grant each one of us the grace to venerate, love, adore and make reparation to His Holy Face for the indifference of mankind.

    With in my first year of receiving the Eucharist after being away, 30 years since the age of 10, I fell into a state of despair because of sin. I still want to church, read the Bible and prayed but thought it was pointless. At mass Fr. Told us to imagine our selves in the story I think Daniel where God is travel on a chariot of flames. I tried to imagine that but I saw Jesus’s Face. He had the crown of thorns it was dark green with purple tips, his hair was dark brown waved long, and tangled, his skin was pale and dirty, he had scruffy face hair, his dark brown eyes looked at me very sadly, I followed a tear down his face to his chapped lips, and I read his mouth saying “I love you.”

  • @fabiolacampa820

    A couple of months ago I started receiving a persistent vision of our Lord’s face with the crown of thorns. this continued for a couple of weeks and I prayed and asked our Lord why that image kept coming to mind. Then it was revealed to me the Holy Face devotion when I researched what this meant. I went ahead and bought the golden arrow book and the image of the Holy Face. While i was waiting to receive it i found out St. Therese, my patron saint, had a devotion to the Holy Face and then as confirmation a friend from my prayer group asked me if i knew that the chapel in Spain where they had perpetual adoration of the Holy Face was ruined by the floods. Then this video! one confirmation after another this is what our Lord wants us to do for reparation. i heard that His Sacred Heart is His humanity and His Holy Face is His divinity. Such a powerful devotion!! ❤

      @DivineMercy_Official that would be so awesome Father,,it would be such a Blessing to meet you,I'll be praying that something will work out if it's God will,,one of my crosses I carry is pulmonary hypertension it starves the body of oxygen but this is fine because I look at it as a tool that our Lord can use of me to help save souls in the world ,so to me it's a gift that I can use to offer up to do what I can to help Jesus,,but unfortunately it gets worse and worse until our good Lord calls me home,,but if this happens I'll have my wife get ahold of you to let you know,so instead maybe you can offer a Holy Mass for me ,instead of meeting ,but what ever God will for me will be just fine,,,maybe we can meet though if God will this to happen,,God Bless you Father and may God keep you in his hands allways,,PS my wife's name is crystal..🙏

      So - 40 years in the desert - like the Jews. Amazing isn’t it? When I thought about it that’s about how long I spent out of the Church as well (38 years I think). Perhaps we needed that long but so glad to be back for about 15 years now. ❤ God bless you.

    Thank-you for your stalwart support of the Truth, our Lord Jesus Christ. Doubtless, many souls are saved for our Lord through the faith of you and the other Priests and staff of The National Shrine of Divine Mercy. Keep praying your commitment to catechizing the public weak in catechesis isn't cancelled by the hierarchy which is often weak in faith if not apostate.
    Have personally been drawn to the 'Holy Face' wherever it's placed as well as the 'Child Jesus' and was clueless about these devotions of St. Therese...

    Fr. Chris, I am glad you are presenting to your followers (those who are not familiar with it) this important devotion.
    We have been praying the Reparation to The Holy Face of Jesus for many, many years (thanks to the Filipino community) in our church and chapel. Then Covid hit and everything changed, since we were no longer allowed access to our church and chapel.
    That is how I "discovered" good old/new Zoom. To this day, every Tuesday morning at 11am we meet on Zoom to pray this devotion. It only takes 30 mi. If we do not have 30 mi a week for God, we have already lost the battle and the war.
    I will keep this devotion alive, with the rest of my prayer group, for the rest of my life.

    O Jesus, through the merits of your Holy Face, have pity on us, and on the whole world.

      Prayers to the Holy Face
      O Jesus, Who in Thy cruel Passion didst become the “Reproach of men and the Man of Sorrows,” I worship Thy Divine Face. Once it shone with the beauty and sweetness of the Divinity: now for my sake it is become as the face of a leper. Yet in that disfigured Countenance I recognize Thy infinite Love, and I am consumed with the desire of loving Thee and of making Thee loved by all mankind. The tears that streamed in such abundance from Thine Eyes are to me as precious pearls which I delight to gather, that with their infinite worth I may ransom the souls of poor sinners.
      O Jesus, Whose Face is the sole beauty that ravishes my heart, I may not behold here upon earth the sweetness of Thy Glance, nor feel the ineffable tenderness of Thy Kiss. I bow to Thy Will-but I pray Thee to imprint in me Thy Divine Likeness, and I implore Thee so to inflame me with Thy Love, that it may quickly consume me and I may soon reach the Vision of Thy glorious Face in Heaven. Amen.
