Ecstasy dated August 25, 1874.
Text written by Abbé David, Marie-Julie
Jahenny's first spiritual director, a prophecy about the Angelic Pontiff
to come who is destined to restore the Church. This short text is an obvious reference to his rescue by the Great Catholic Monarch of France and the days
of his triumph in Rome:
"The Holy Father will have false friends in the days of his triumph. This triumph will be held immediately after that of France.”
"The Holy Father will have false friends in the days of his triumph. This triumph will be held immediately after that of France.”

About Abb'e David: Pitre-Hervé David was born in 1829 in a family of sailors, Croisic in Loire Atlantique. He was appointed vicar at Blain in 1865. Everyone loved this devoted and energetic priest. He knew Marie-Julie and became her confessor long before the first apparitions.
When the apparitions took place in 1873 and the stigmata was prophesied, Abbé David continued to inform his Bishop, Monsignor Fournier. In view of these events, the greatest circumspection was necessary, in fact they had to know: were they dealing with God or with Satan?
Far from being blamed by Heaven for this mistrust, this holy priest would be judged worthy to be associated intimately with the atonement of Marie-Julie and elevated to the rank of First Victim, he would also be designated as her spiritual director.
(From the ecstasies, we discover hints that Abbé David shared in Marie-Julie's sufferings, becoming a victim soul by having been granted the title 'First Victim' in the mission to spread the great work of the Holy Cross at La Fraudais.)
These glorious titles given to him, First Victim and Director, be retained, even after his removal from La Fraudais by the Capitular Vicars at the death of Monseigneur Fournier in 1877. Abbé David was then appointed to the parish of Le Pin where he died on May 9, 1885, not without having been warned beforehand by Marie-Julie. There were two miracles that occured at his grave that were not not formally recorded."
Later, the "Friends of Marie-Julie Society" discovered texts among their files revealing one of these two miracles: a paralised child was brought to his grave and was healed immediately.
Our Lady later revealed to Marie-Julie in August 1883 that Fr. David was a great saint and that she would work many miracles through him regarding the Great work of the Cross. (What is the Great Work of the Cross? Click here.)
