Dear Friend,



Let’s prepare for the Lenten season; let’s not wait for Ash Wednesday to get ready. Can you pray a novena with me and the Discalced Carmelite Nuns to the Holy Face of Jesus?  



Why is this novena so special? 



A few years ago, we held our annual Catholic Action Summit in the city of Dallas, Texas. While there, I attended a riveting Holy Mass at the Discalced Carmelite Monastery of The Infant of Prague and St. Joseph.  



In the chapel, there is an image of the Holy Face of Jesus by the altar.  On the first Sunday of every month, they hold a meeting of the Archconfraternity of the Holy Face, where a priest leads prayers honoring the Holy Face of Jesus and in reparation.  



This is a Devotion that was approved by Pope Leo XIII in 1885.The Devotions to The Holy Face in Dallas publicly started in 1958 and carry an Imprimatur by the late Bishop Gorman.



Join us on Tuesday, February 9th, as we begin the Novena to the Holy Face, which will end on Ash Wednesday, February 17th. Let us follow in the footsteps of the first adorers of the Sacred Countenance: the Blessed Mother, Saint Joseph, the shepherds, the Magi and later the Apostles and disciples. 



Please enroll in these 9 days of prayers. Joinus in praying this novena along with the Discalced Carmelite Nuns.

With so many families suffering from mental, physical, and financial stress - fear, worry and anxiety, along with suicides, there is so much confusion in the world, now is the time to gaze upon the wounded, Holy Face of Jesus. 



Convert us, O God, and show us Thy Face, and we shall be saved. Ps. 79, v.4. 



Remember that Our Lord left an image of his sacred sorrowful face – his bloodstained countenance on the veil of Veronica, so let us honor Him, unite our prayers to atone for the sins of the world and present our personal petitions to him.



Our Lord Jesus Christ has promised to those who honor his Holy Face: 



"By offering My Face to My Eternal Father, nothing will be refused, and the conversion of many sinners will be obtained."
