From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Roman Catholic tradition includes specific prayers and devotions as

cts of Reparation for insults and blasphemies against Jesus Christ

and the Holy Name of Jesus. These include the sufferings during the

Passion of Jesus. Similar prayers as Acts of Reparation to the Virgin

Mary andActs of Reparation to The Holy Trinity also exist.

These prayers are recited with the intent to repair the sins of others,

e.g. when the name of Jesus Christ is taken in vain, for the repair of

the sin of blasphemy or the insults against and sufferings of Jesus in

Calvary. Pope John Paul II referred to reparation as the "unceasing

effort to stand beside the endless crosses on which the Son of God

continues to be crucified".[1]

Specific Roman Catholic organizations with this purpose exist. For

instance, theArchconfraternity of Reparation for blasphemy and the

neglect of Sunday was founded by Msgr. Pierre Louis Parisis in 1847

and theArchconfraternity of the Holy Face was founded in 1851 by

the Venerable Leo Dupont, the "Holy Man ofTours".[2] In 1950, the

Venerable Abbot Hildebrand Gregori formed the organization

"Prayerful Sodality" which in 1977 became the Pontifical

Congregation of the Benedictine Sisters of the Reparation of the HolyFace.[3]

Apparitions and reparations

The need for prayers of reparation has also been emphasized within messages reported as part of Marian

apparitions. A key recent example is the apparition of Our Lady of Akita in 1973 in which Sister Agnes

Sasagawa reported the following message from the Blessed Virgin Mary:

"Many men in this world afflict the Lord. I desire souls to console Him to soften the anger of the

Venerable Marie

Martha

Chambon.

Heavenly Father."

In 1988, Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger (later Pope Benedict XVI), as the Prefect of the Congregation for the

Doctrine of the Faith provided a definitive judgement on the Akita messages as reliable and worthy of

belief.[4]

The need for prayers of repentance, reparation and penance was also emphasized in the reported messages

of Our Lady of Kibeho in 1982.

Rosary of the Holy Wounds

TheRosary of the Holy Wounds is a Rosary based prayer but it does not include the

usual mysteries of the rosary. It is primarily directed at the sufferings of Jesus Christ

and was first presented by the Venerable Sister Marie Martha Chambon who lived in

Chambry, France and died in 1907.[5]

She reported that Jesus Christ appeared to her asked her to unite her sufferings withHis as an Act of Reparation for the sins of the world. It also has special applicability

to the souls in purgatory.[6][7]

Prayer of reparation for insults and blasphemies

Words of the prayer:[8]

O Jesus, my Savior and Redeemer, Son of the living God, behold, we kneel before Thee and offer

Thee our reparation; we would make amends for all the blasphemies uttered against Thy holy name,for all the injuries done to Thee in the Blessed Sacrament, for all the irreverence shown toward Thine

immaculate Virgin Mother, for all the calumnies and slanders spoken against Thy spouse, the holy

Catholic and Roman Church. O Jesus, who hast said: "If you ask the Father anything in My name,

He will give it to you", we pray and beseech Thee for all our brethren who are in danger of sin;

shield them from every temptation to fall away from the true faith; save those who are even now

standing on the brink of the abyss; to all of them give light and knowledge of the truth, courage and

strength for the conflict with evil, perseverance in faith and active charity! For this do we pray, most

merciful Jesus, in Thy name, unto God the Father, with whom Thou livest and reignest in the unity of

the Holy Spirit world without end. Amen

The Golden Arrow

The Golden Arrow Prayer is part of the devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus and

appears in the book The Golden Arrow, the autobiography of Sr. Marie of St Peter.

In her book she wrote that in her visions of Jesus she was told that an act of

sacrilege or blasphemy is like a "poisoned arrow", hence the name "Golden Arrow"

for this reparatory prayer.[9][10][11]
