This work has for its main object the reparation of blasphemies and the reparation of the holy day of Sunday, profaned by secular labor. In consequence, it embraces the reparation of the outrages inflicted upon God and the sanctification of His Name. Ought the devotion to the Holy Face to be united to this work? Yes. It is its riches and its most precious ornament. Since our Lord has made a gift of his Holy Face to the work in order to be the object of devotion of the associates, they become all-powerful with God through the offering which they ought to make to him of this August and Holy Face.
The presence of which is so agreeable to Him that it infallibly appeases His anger and attracts His infinite mercy upon poor sinners. Yes. When the Eternal Father looks upon the Face of his well-beloved Son, which has been wounded by blows and covered with ignominy, the sight moves his bowels of compassion. Let us endeavor to profit by so precious a gift, and let us entreat the Divine Savior to hide us in the secret of His Face during these evil days.
