2. RECEIVING THE SACRAMENT OF HOLY COMMUNION,
3. SAYING FIVE DECADES OF THE ROSARY,
4. MEDITATING FOR 15 MINUTES ON THE MYSTERIES OF THE ROSARY.
ALL THIS OFFERED IN REPARATION FOR THE SINS OF BLASPHEMY AND INGRATITUDE COMMITTED AGAINST THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY.
HISTORY
DURING THE THIRD APPARITION ON JULY 13, 1917, OUR LADY REVEALED THAT SHE WOULD COME TO ASK FOR THE CONSECRATION OF RUSSIA TO HER IMMACULATE HEART AND FOR THE COMMUNION OF REPARATION OF THE FIVE FIRST SATURDAYS. CONSEQUENTLY, SHE ASKED FOR THE DEVOTION IN 1925 AND THE CONSECRATION IN 1929.
WHILE STAYING AT THE HOUSE OF THE DOROTHEAN SISTERS IN PONTEVEDRA, PORTUGAL, SISTER LUCIA RECEIVED A VISION ON DECEMBER 10, 1925 WHERE THE BLESSED MOTHER APPEARED ALONGSIDE A BOY WHO STOOD OVER A LUMINOUS CLOUD. OUR LADY RESTED ONE HAND ON THE BOY’S SHOULDER WHILE SHE HELD ON THE OTHER HAND A HEART PIERCED WITH THORNS AROUND IT.
SISTER LUCIA HEARD THE BOY SAY, "HAVE PITY ON THE HEART OF YOUR MOST HOLY MOTHER WHICH IS COVERED WITH THORNS WITH WHICH INGRATE MEN PIERCE IT AT EVERY MOMENT WITH NO ONE TO MAKE AN ACT OF REPARATION TO PULL THEM OUT."
OUR LADY EXPRESSED HER REQUEST IN THE FOLLOWING WORDS, "SEE, MY DAUGHTER, MY HEART SURROUNDED WITH THORNS WITH WHICH INGRATES PIERCE ME AT EVERY MOMENT WITH BLASPHEMIES AND INGRATITUDE. YOU, AT LEAST, MAKE SURE TO CONSOLE ME AND ANNOUNCE THAT ALL THOSE WHO FOR FIVE MONTHS, ON THE FIRST SATURDAYS, GO TO CONFESSION, RECEIVE COMMUNION, SAY FIVE DECADES OF THE ROSARY AND KEEP ME COMPANY FOR 15 MINUTES MEDITATING ON THE MYSTERIES OF THE ROSARY, WITH THE PURPOSE OF MAKING REPARATION TO ME, I PROMISE TO ASSIST THEM AT THE HOUR OF DEATH WITH ALL THE GRACES NECESSARY FOR THE SALVATION OF THEIR SOULS."
A FEW DAYS AFTERWARD, SISTER LUCIA DETAILED THIS VISION IN A LETTER ADDRESSED TO MONSIGNOR MANUEL PEREIRA LOPES, HER CONFESSOR WHEN SHE RESIDED IN THE ASYLUM OF VILAR IN THE CITY OF OPORTO, PORTUGAL.
WHY FIVE SATURDAYS?
SISTER LUCIA’S CONFESSOR QUESTIONED HER ABOUT THE REASON FOR THE FIVE SATURDAYS ASKING WHY NOT SEVEN OR NINE. SHE ANSWERED HIM IN A LETTER DATED JUNE 12, 1930. IN IT SHE RELATED ABOUT A VISION SHE HAD OF OUR LORD WHILE STAYING IN THE CONVENT CHAPEL PART OF THE NIGHT OF THE TWENTY-NINTH TO THE THIRTIETH OF THE MONTH OF MAY, 1930.
THE REASONS OUR LORD GAVE WERE AS FOLLOWS:THE FIVE FIRST SATURDAYS CORRESPOND TO THE FIVE KINDS OF OFFENSES AND BLASPHEMIES COMMITTED AGAINST THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY. THEY ARE:
A. BLASPHEMIES AGAINST THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION
B. BLASPHEMIES AGAINST HER VIRGINITY
C. BLASPHEMIES AGAINST HER DIVINE MATERNITY, AT THE SAME TIME THE REFUSAL TO ACCEPT HER AS THE MOTHER OF ALL MEN
D. INSTILLING INDIFFERENCE, SCORN AND EVEN HATRED TOWARDS THIS IMMACULATE MOTHER IN THE HEARTS OF CHILDREN
E. DIRECT INSULTS AGAINST HER SACRED IMAGES

The Dogmatic Foundation -Mary’s dispensing of all Graces is founded foremost on Her Motherhood, as Mother of Christ and Mother of Christians. Other factors are Her total dedication to Jesus and Her unique Holiness. The first foundation: Mary is Christ’s Mother. What belongs to the Son also belongs to the Mother. The Son’s treasures of Graces are Mary’s also. That is why Jesus called Her His Treasurer (Poem of the Man- God, IX, 303). “For Her Immaculate Heart, which was never stained, even by the slightest stain, I open the treasures of Heaven” (Poem of the Man-God, X, 357).
The second foundation: Mary is the Mother of all Christians. Jesus says: “I gave you a Mother, not only a Father… You have a Mother in Heaven. . . She has a great deal of influence with God because She is the Daughter, Spouse, and Mother of God” (Quad. ’43, p.416 [Nov. 8]). Jesus says: “With Me is Mary, the Mother of all, [therefore,] the Help of all. She smiled at martyrs to urge them on to Heaven. She smiled at virgins to help them in their angelic vocation. She smiled at the guilty to draw them to repentance. She is always needed by humans, especially when they experience the most acute distress. On Her Motherly bosom you will be strengthened and you will find Me and My forgiveness, and along with forgiveness, strength. If you remain in Me, you will enjoy the gifts of Christ and will not experience perdition” (Quad. ’43, p.318-319 [July 27]). Being the Mother of all, Mary is the Wet-nurse of all-to whomever has supernatural life (habitual Grace), She gives the sustenance of actual Graces.

“See, Mother?” [Jesus is speaking to Mary]. “The world is here. The world of the future in the little pure Israelite [Marziam] who will not even be aware of becoming the ‘Christian’; the world, the old world of Israel in [Simon] the Zealot; mankind in John [of Endor], the Gentiles in [Syntika]. And they all come to You, the Holy [Wet-Nurse] Who gives the milk of Wisdom and Life to the world and to centuries. How many mouths have desired to suckle at Your breast! And how many will do so in future! Patriarchs and Prophets longed for You, because the Nourishment of man was to come from Your fertile womb. And ‘My followers’ will seek You to be forgiven, taught, defended, loved, like as many [Marziams]. And blessed are those who will do so! Because it will not be possible to persevere in Christ, unless Grace is fortified by Your help, Mother full of Grace” (Poem of the Man-God, IV, 1186). All Catholic theologians consider that Mary’s influence in distributing all Graces is of a moral nature. She operates by means of Her prayer and intercession with which She urges God to grant Graces. Several theologians acknowledge as well a “physical” influence by Mary. They see in Her (as in Christ’s Sacred humanity, from which She is inseparable) an instrument of Grace. Thus She joins Christ in giving Graces to souls, directly dispensing them Herself after obtaining them with Her own intercession. Maria Valtorta’s writings shed light on both of Mary’s moral and “physical” influences in dispensing all Graces. As for the “physical” influence, She is shown to be an instrument of God (God being the principal cause), in union with Christ’s humanity (the instrumental cause). The Virgin Mary’s moral influence Jesus says: “As children who take refuge under their mother’s veil, have recourse to Mary’s prayer. Mary’s prayer is a shield against the heat of the senses and of the devil. Mary’s prayer is the means to grow in Christ and enter His Kingdom” (Quad. ’43, p.416-417 [Nov. 8]).

Elsewhere, Jesus spoke at length about everything God gave us through Mary.

“… He continues to give you so much on account of Her, at Her request, for Her joy, because Her joy flows into the joy of God and increases it with flashes that fill the light, the great Light of Paradise with brilliant sparkles and every sparkle is a Grace to the universe, to mankind, to the blessed souls who reply with a jubilant cry of Alleluia to each generation of Divine Miracle, created by the desire of the Blessed Trinity to see the sparkling smile of joy of the Virgin” (Poem of the Man-God 30). Mary speaking: “I pray for you. Remember that. The beatitude of being in Heaven, living in the ray of God, does not cause Me to forget My children who are suffering on the earth. And I pray. And all Heaven prays, because Heaven loves. Heaven is living charity. And Charity has mercy on you. But even if I were all by Myself, My prayer would be sufficient for the needs of those who hope in God. Because I never stop praying for you all, for the Holy and the wicked, to give joy to the Holy, to give repentance to the wicked that they might be saved” (Poem of the Man-God), I, 154).

Furthermore, Jesus said that “the secret of the salvation of the world resides in Mary’s prayers” (Poem of the Man-God, X, 360).She Mary’s moral influence (by Her prayers, urging God to distribute Graces) is supplemented by Her “physical” influence (actually distributing the Graces that are obtained through prayer).

The Virgin Mary’s “physical” influence- John the Baptist was granted a signal Grace: he was sanctified even before his birth. Now, Mary affirms: “My presence had sanctified the Baptist” (Poem of the Man-God, I, 153). She did not say Her “intercession,” but Her “presence.”

Jesus explains this in Maria Valtorta’s Quaderni: “John the Baptist leaped in his mother’s womb when he received the stream of Grace flowing from Mary. This stream was so strong that it sanctified him. It flowed past the barriers of the flesh to reach the fruit of Zechariah and Elizabeth which was growing to become My evangelist. (Since an evangelist spreads the Good News and John spread the Good News of My presence among human beings, I am not mistaken in calling John the Baptist My evangelist. I say this for the sake of pettifogging exegetes.) In the same way, those who came in Mary’s physical vicinity could not do so without feeling the effects of Her Grace. “She left in Her wake a track of active Holiness. If only hearts did not spurn Grace and if only they drew near to Her, they became predestined to Holiness. When everything is revealed to mankind, you shall see that many of the first disciples of the Son of Mary were people who had had as little as chance meetings with Her. Yet, they remained cleansed and saturated with the Grace which She spread. Then you will know about many prodigies done by Her, My Completely Beautiful One, the Full of Grace” (Quad. ’43, p.592 [Nov. 28]). {footnote}

JESUS SAYS: “Behold this Heart which has loved men so much, and yet men do not want to love Me in return. Through you My Divine Heart wishes to spread its love everywhere on earth."- Jesus to Saint Margaret Mary
“Behold this Heart, Which has loved men so much, that It has spared nothing, even to exhausting and consuming Itself, in order to testify to them Its love; and in return I receive from the greater number nothing but ingratitude by reason of their irreverence and sacrileges, and by the coldness and contempt which they show Me in this Sacrament of Love. But what I feel the most keenly is that it is hearts which are consecrated to Me that treat Me thus. Therefore, I ask of thee that the Friday after the Octave of Corpus Christi be set apart for a special feast to honour My Heart, by communicating on that day and making reparation to It by a solemn act, in order to make amends for the indignities which It has received during the time It has been exposed on the altars. I promise thee that My Heart shall expand Itself to shed in abundance the influence of Its Divine love upon those who shall thus honour It, and cause It to be honoured."* Jesus to Saint Margaret Mary The writings of Sr Margaret Mary also reveal the first Friday’s devotion given by Our Lord: "I promise you, in the excess of the mercy of My Heart, that Its all-powerful love 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 the Sacraments, My Divine Heart becoming their assured refuge in that hour

FEAST DAY OF THE BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST JUNE 22nd 2025

CHRIST SPEAKS OF THE EUCHARIST- TO MARIA VALTORTA, (MYSTIC) TO US, HIS CHILDREN. [Nov. 18, 1947]


JESUS: Listen well, Maria, this is a great lesson: The most proper name of the Mass or Sacrifice of the Altar, as you all now call it, is the "Breaking of the Bread." First, because the Mass originated on the evening of Holy Thursday. And secondly, because the Mass is the perpetual remembrance of My love which extends beyond that hour and that moment. My Passion, Crucifixion and Death were the historical hour and moment of My love, but the Eucharist is the always of My love for all of you. The Mass is the immolation of the Christ—contemplated not just in relation to the material consummation of My sacrifice, with My sufferings, wounds, beatings, crucifixion and death: caused by men and willingly suffered by Me in obedience to My Father's Will for the salvation of the world. The Mass is also the loving and willing immolation of a God: of the Word Who breaks Himself in order to give Himself as Bread, as Food for men, humiliating Himself even more than by His death on a Cross. Nor is "humiliating" an improper word. Think, Maria, of those who sometimes receive Me, those into whom I descend: I, God, the Pure, the Holy. I began at the table of the Last Supper to fuse Myself with the sacrilegious, with sinners, rebels against the Ten Commandments of Sinai and My Two Commandments of love. I began these fusions of Myself with sinners by descending into Judas. Since then, I: the Saint of saints, the Pure of the pure, the Most Perfect, have been "welcomed" by impure lips still warm with lust, by lips blaspheming My Father, by homicidal hearts, by fevers of concupiscence: by beings in whom there is denial, heresy, commerce with Hell, all the rottenness of fallen man, all the duplicity of false sentiments, all the calculating exhibition of a false faith, which in them is not true faith. Only God, and those with Him in Heaven, know the horrors that are consummated at the Altar. And these horrors are much greater, immensely greater than the sacrilegious waves of Good Friday...

Yes, Maria. The Mass is the Breaking of the Bread, the Eucharistic Sacrifice, which recalls the Sacrifice of Calvary. Because at the table of the Last Supper, already contemplating My immolated Body and My Blood shed for men, I had said: "This is My Body and this is My Blood, the Blood of the new Eternal Testament which will be shed for you and for many for the remission of sins." But the Mass is above all the sacrifice of My love, the remembrance and perpetuation of My Divinely, and therefore infinitely, insane love for men. And it was the Breaking of the Bread (or "the Mass" if you prefer) that you saw, Maria, in the vision of the supplemental Pasch, when I Myself, taught the Bishop of the Church of Christ, and the Bishop of Jerusalem: Peter, and James of Alpheus, to celebrate it. After the supper of the brothers, came the consuming of My Body and My Blood: left by infinite love in the Food and Drink of salvation. By the Grace of the Lord, My priests can summon that Body and Blood from Heaven; nor do the Body and Blood refuse that Priestly summons. They can summon It in order to transubstantiate the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ—therefore into Jesus Christ: alive, true, complete, present in the consecrated Species, now transubstantiated into the Holy Body and Blood, the Soul of Jesus, and the Divinity of the Word of God, One with the Father and with Love. After the fraternal agape, came union of their Divine Brother with His brothers of Earth, with the Holy brothers, among holy brothers whom love made equal, though greater ones were there: the Priests; and with the little ones: the faithful—union with Him Who knows only how to love, and Who asks love and union with His loved ones.

The need for instruction: one must keep present the fact that the Apostles, deacons and Priests of the first centuries of the Christian era, were in the situation of instructing pagans, that is, those who were truly illiterate in the Holy Religion. This need for instruction caused additions to the Breaking of the Bread—Itself so simple and brief. These additions instructed those who aspired to Christianity how to enter into the Sheepfold of Christ: by knowing the Shepherd and Wisdom, by knowing the ancient and Eternal Law, and the Words of the Master. Hence the reading of the apostolic epistles and the Gospel were introduced. In the first times, just at the beginning, instead of those readings there was direct preaching: that is, the recounting of ancient times, or the verbal counsels of the apostles, or else the verbal instruction of the sapiential books. And so also there was the verbal narration of My works in the three years of My public life, and of My Birth, Death and Resurrection. Later, as the Church was growing, there was an insufficient number of true eyewitnesses—i.e., Apostles and disciples—for the growing number of Churches. Moreover, though the disciples were full of good will in repeating the episodes of My works and life, they were still subject to man's shortcomings: to involuntary variations of these episodes, and to arbitrary interpretations of them. Though this was done with a right purpose, yet, it was done...humanly. Hence, the Heads of the Priesthood wanted fixed texts to be read in the Meetings, and then to be explained to the catechumens in that part of the Meeting which preceded the Breaking of the Bread and the praying of the Our Father: just as I intoned this Prayer at the First Breaking of the Bread, and also at the second supplemental Pasch —in the presence of the faithful, and after consuming the Species.

Truly, I had then made the Communion precede the Our Father. For centuries now the opposite has been done, and you believe, O men, that you do well. To do this is not a sin, but reflect: What is the Our Father? The prayer of Jesus to the Father. The Divine prayer which I taught to men. The perfect prayer. If there were only that prayer, and nothing else but that were said well, you would have all, O men, for your spirit and for your flesh. And you would give to God that which pleases Him, if you lived the Our Father. I had said: "Our Father". With every right I could say to the First Person: "Father". But you,...although God is your Father—you can say it with much less right. Because too infrequently do you reflect in yourselves and in your works the Divine likeness to your Father. Sins and inclinations disfigure the Father's image in you, sometimes even cancelling it out. But see: I transfuse Myself into you. I come into you. I assimilate Myself to you. I deify you at My contact. I come in the Species, and I am in you. And you—voice of man fused with the voice of the Son of God, and your mind on fire from the love that I bring with Me, you are a sanctified altar (I speak of one who eats the Bread of Heaven without sacrilege) which sings and is fragrant from the Holocaust that radiates upon it: the Body of the Lamb of God—you can say "Father" to the Father, with every right. For you have in you the Son of the Father and your Brother. You can pray, knowing what you say. You can offer and ask with perfect power: I give you My Power living in you. A Holy prayer, the ‘Our Father’: because said at the moment that Grace—the Christ—makes of His Body and Blood your food, just as He has transubstantiated the species of bread and wine into His Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity. Thus the Eucharistic Species are transformed into you: into your blood, into your flesh. You live from Me, even in your mortal flesh... This is why Viaticum for the dying is always Life, even if sometimes it is not additional life added to one's finished life. This is why the Eucharist is the life in you that keeps you alive, Maria, soul of Mine. I am your oil that pours itself into the lamp of your exhausted body and keeps you alive. I am your Physician. I am your Donor of Blood. I am your Lord Who wants you to be: My lamp, My echo, in this spent, cold, dark world, mute of blessed voices.

The other parts of the Mass are adaptations, sometimes necessary, resulting from heresies that emerged down the ages and had to be fought. Anxious adaptations—oh! all good—these adaptations made by My servants. But through man's own tendency to amplify, tangle, and make things heavy, My servants added, amplified, made heavy, and even entangled—especially for little souls—the so beautiful, simple, initial Breaking of the Bread, and the catacomb Meetings so Divinely inspired. But they did it wanting to honour Me, to love Me and make Me loved. And therefore they did a good work, though one not necessary or useful for the Eucharistic Rite. These adaptations are the superstructures from times of religious peace. Do you think that you Christians today are not in times of religious peace? just because you are calumniated and scorned? and because some Priests fall under the fury of a son of Satan? Oh! You do not know! When the times prophesied have come, those who are believers at that time and know of the present times, will be able to say: "For them there was peace; for us there is an atrocious war." And those superstructures will no longer be possible. They will not withstand the catapults of Satan. Nor will the faithful have time to redo them when they have fallen away. But the essential, the unchangeable will remain: the Breaking of the Bread, the Meeting together of the faithful. Because those come from Me, and from the Holy Spirit Who inspired the Apostles. And that which comes from Us is Eternal. This is the lesson, Maria.

FEAST DAY OF THE MOST HOLY TRINITY – SUNDAY June 15th 2025
THE MYSTERY OF THE HOLY TRINITY – VISIONS MARIA VALTORTA – MYSTIC [July 1, 1943]
JESUS says: “I illumine a Mystery for you. Say: 'Glory to the Father, to the Son, to the Holy Spirit,' because it is of Us that I want to speak to you. Because of your human heaviness, figures are needed in order to think of the Father and the Holy Spirit, incorporeal Beings of infinite beauty, but Whom none of you can conceive with your human senses. So much so, that only with difficulty do you turn with all your thought to Them to invoke Them, as you invoke Me Whom you think of as a Man-God. You do not understand even remotely, therefore, the mystery of Our Trinity. In order to think of God there is no need to bring up comparisons with other beings. He is. In Being, there is all. But Being has no Body, and the Eternal Being has no body."

[THE VISION]:Having just received Jesus, I felt my Mama near me, Mary, at the left side of the bed. She embraced me with Her right arm, drawing me to Herself. She was [clothed] with Her white garment and veil, as in the Visions of the Grotto in December [1943]. At the same time I felt myself enfolded by a golden light of a sweet, an indescribably soft color, and the eyes of my spirit sought for the source of that golden light, which I felt raining down on me from above. It seemed to me that my room, even while remaining a room as it is with its floor and four walls and furniture, had no more roof, and I saw the boundless azure [Heavens] of God. Suspended in these azure [Heavens], the Divine Dove of fire was hovering perpendicularly above Mary's head and, naturally, above my head, because I had leaned my cheek on Mary's cheek. The Holy Spirit had His wings open and in an upright, vertical position. He did not move, and yet He vibrated, and at every vibration there were waves, flashes, sparks of brilliance which were burst forth. From Him gushed a cone of Golden Light. Its peak started from the breast of the Dove and its base enfolded Mary and me. We were gathered together in this cone, in this mantel, in this embrace of joyous light. A light very vivid, and yet not dazzling, because it communicated to the eyes a new strength which grew with every beam burst forth from the Dove, increasing always more the already existing beam of light with every vibration of the Dove. I felt as if my eye were dilated with a superhuman power, as if it were no longer the eye of a creature but of a spirit already glorified. When I attained the capacity of seeing further, thanks to the Love enkindled and suspended above me, my spirit was called to look still higher.

And against the clearer azure of Paradise, I saw the Father distinctly, in as much as His figure was in lines of immaterial Light. [He had] a beauty which I do not try to describe because it is beyond human capacity. He appeared to me as on a throne. I say this because He seemed to me to be seated with infinite majesty. But I did not see a throne, or armchair or canopy. Nothing of any earthly form of seat. He seemed to be at my left side (but at an incalculable height. And yet I saw Him in the tiniest of His most luminous features. He was looking with a look of infinite love. I followed His gaze and saw Jesus. Not the Jesus-Master Whom I usually see. But the Jesus-King: clothed in white but with a luminous and extremely white garment, as is that of Mary. A garment which seems to be made of light. [He was] very beautiful. Robust. Imposing. Perfect. Dazzling. With His right hand (He was standing) He held His sceptre which is also His banner. A long staff, like a shepherd's, but still taller than my very tall Jesus, and which did not end with the shepherd's crook but in a transverse rod, which forms therefore a cross..., from which hung, supported from the shorter rod, a small banner of very luminous, white silk..., and marked on both sides with a purple cross. Upon the small banner is written—in words of light as if written with liquid diamonds, the title: 'Jesus Christ.' I see very well the wounds of His hands since His right hand holds the staff up high, toward the banner, and His left points to the wound of His side which, however, I do not see other than as a very luminous point from which beams of Light radiate that descend toward earth. The wound on the right [hand] is just toward the wrist and seems like a very bright ruby, as large as a piece of our money.... The wound of the left hand is more in the centre and wider, but then elongated toward the thumb. They shine like living coals. I see no other wounds. Rather the Body of my Lord is very beautiful and whole in all Its parts. The Father looks at the Son on His left. The Son looks at His Mother and me. But I assure you if He did not look with love I could not bear the brilliance of His Look and of His Countenance. He is truly the King of dreadful majesty, as it is said. The longer the Vision lasts, the more my faculty of perceiving the tiniest details increases, and of seeing always more in that vast ray [of light]. In fact, after some time I see St. Joseph (near the corner where the Manger is). He is not so tall, more or less like Mary. Robust. With grey hair which is curly and short, and with a square-cut beard. A long, thin, aquiline nose. Two wrinkles incise his cheeks starting from the corners of his nose and descending to lose themselves at the sides of his mouth, in his beard. Dark and very good eyes. I find in them the loving good gaze of my own father. All his face is good, pensive without being sad, dignified, but so, so good. He is clothed in a tunic of violet-blue like the petals of certain periwinkles, and he has a mantle the colour of camel's hair. Jesus points him out to me, saying to me: 'Behold the patron of all the just.'

But a still livelier sparkling of the Spirit of God and of the wounds of Jesus, my Lord, increases my capacity for seeing. And I see the Heavenly Church, the Church Triumphant! I [will] try to describe it for you. On high, always, the Father, the Son, and now also the Spirit high above the Two, between the Two, Whom He unites with His brilliance. Lower down, as between two azure slopes of an unearthly azure, gathered in a blessed Valley, the multitude of the Blessed in Christ, the Army of those marked with the Name of the Lamb, a multitude which is light, a light that is song, a song that is adoration, adoration that is bliss. On the left, the ranks of Confessors. On the right, those of the Virgins. I do not see the ranks of Martyrs, and the Spirit makes me understand that the Martyrs are joined to the Virgins, since martyrdom 're-virginizes' the soul as if it were just created. Whether Confessors or Virgins, they all seem clothed in white: that luminous white of the garments of Jesus and Mary. Light radiates from the azure ground and from the azure walls of the Holy Valley as if they were kindled sapphire. Lights radiate from their garments of woven diamonds. Above all, the spiritualized bodies and faces are light. And here I endeavor to describe to you what I have noticed in the different bodies.

A Body of flesh and a Spirit that is alive, throbbing, perfect, sensitive to touch and contact—only the Body of Jesus and of Mary are that: two glorious Bodies, but truly 'bodies.' Then, Light with the form of a body (just so that it can be perceptible to this poor handmaid of God): the Eternal Father, the Holy Spirit and my angel. Next, Light already more solid: St. Joseph and St. John, certainly because I must hear their presence and word. Finally, White Flames, which are spiritualized bodies: all the Blessed who form the multitude of Heaven. Among the Confessors no one turns. They all look at the Most Holy Trinity. Among the Virgins someone does turn. I distinguish the Apostles Peter and Paul because, although luminous and white-garbed as all [the rest], they have a face already more distinctive than the others: a typically Hebrew face. They look at me with kindness (thank Heavens!). Then three blessed spirits (whom I understand to be the spirits of women) who look at me, nod and smile. You could say they invite me. They are young. But previously it appeared to me that all the Blessed have the same age: youthful, perfect, and of a similar beauty. They are lesser copies of Jesus and Mary. Who these three celestial creatures are I cannot say, but since two carry palms and only one some flowers, the palms are the only sign which distinguishes the Martyrs from the Virgins. I believe I do not err in saying that they are Agnes, Cecilia and Therese of Lisieux. What that 'Alleluia' of this multitude is I cannot say, despite my good will. An 'Alleluia' which is powerful, but also soft as a caress. And all laugh and shine more vividly at every 'Hosanna' of the multitude to its God. The Vision ceases and, in its intensity, is crystalized in this form. Mary leaves me and, with Her, John and Joseph: the first taking his place before the Son and the others their place in the rank of the virgins. Praise be to Jesus Christ!"
