ISSOUDUN, France - The
spirituality of Reparation was the explicit request of Jesus to St.
Margaret-Mary in Paray-le-Monial and it was confirmed at the highest
level of the Church by the Encyclical “Miserentissimus Redemptor”
(1928). Therefore it fits logically into the spirituality of the heart.
For us, a life in union with the Heart of Christ is not just a devotion - it is the very core of our spirituality. the heart of Christ is the source of living water, that is, of the Spirit.
Jules Chevalier (1824-1907) was a man of his time. He was convinced that the Jesus he found in the Gospels was a person of deep compassion and understanding.
Through her union with Jesus, Mary knows the unsearchable riches of his Heart and wants to lead us to him, who is the source of a limitless love that gives birth to a new world.
Fr. Jules wanted to found a missionary Society that would have as its purpose to bring God’s compassionate and merciful love to human beings as the remedy for the evils that afflicted society.
