The Holy Wounds of Jesus

Francoise Chambon was born in Davoy, France, on March 6, 1841. Her parents were poor farmers, and life was not easy. Francoise, for the most part, kept her visions to herself. She bided her time and when she was 20 years old, she entered the Monastery of the Visitation Order in nearby Chambery. This was when she was given the name Marie-Martha.

Marie-Martha began to have visions of Jesus in which He would ask her to contemplate The Holy Wounds. Jesus would teach her specific prayers and meditations. Her Mother Superior began to chronicle Marie’s life, and this was published in 1923 and sold worldwide. The following year the Vatican granted an indulgence to those who said the following prayer, which was based on her reported visions: “Eternal Father I offer the Wounds of Our Lord Jesus Christ, to heal the wounds of our souls.”

Jesus wanted her to unite her sufferings with His in the Rosary of the Holy Wounds. This would be done as an Act of Reparation for the sins of the world and the Souls in Purgatory.

Our Lord said “I have chosen you to awaken the Devotion to My Holy Passion in the unhappy times you live in.”
