A collection of texts from the 'Friends of Marie-Julie Jahenny Association' featuring Marie-Julie's vision of the official pilgrimage to Paray-le-Monial on the day of the dedication of the cornerstone of Sacre-Coeur in Paris, and, the revelations later regarding her and St. Margaret Mary.
The background to this vision: Just before the construction of the basilica of Sacre Coeur, France, the 'Eldest Daughter of the Church' had been invaded by Prussia, the 'Eldest Daughter of Protestantism' as Fr. Marin Boylesve described theinvading country. Paris had been under siege, the populace forced to eat whatever could be had, the rich ate the zoo animals while the poor had cats, dogs and rats. After Paris fell, civil war broke out, and the anti-religious socialist Communards ravaged the city before they were defeated by the National Guards. It was during that time that St. Catherine Laboure's prophecy of the execution of the archbishop of Paris, Archbishop Darboy took place. Already prophecies had circulated that Paris would be destroyed for its sins and France would be punished.
The nation was in dire straights in the early 1870s, the clergy seized upon the revelations of St. Margaret Mary and realised that the only hope for Paris and France was devotion to the Sacred Heart, and to fulfil the request revealed to her to have a national shrine built in Its honour.
The call for the shrine grew and at last, the government issued the national vow to have it built. The cornerstone was laid the day Bl. Pius IX proclaimed for the universal consecration to the Sacred Heart to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the revelations of the Sacred Heart to St. Margaret Mary.
As we see from the following revelations to Marie-Julie Jahenny, the Sacred Heart promised France had been saved from ultimate destruction thanks to the nation fulfilling His request to build a shrine to honour His Sacred Heart.
Below is the text of the ecstasy along with commentary from the 'Friends of Marie-Julie Jahenny' Website:
:::::::::::::::
On June 16, 1875, the foundation stone of Montmartre's Basilica of the Sacred Heart was laid. At the same time, there was a celebration at Paray-le-Monial; it was the pilgrimage of the National Assembly, represented by a number of its members. On that day, Marie-Julie was in an ecstasy in the church of Blain after receiving communion. They were able to collect the words
of the ecstatic, here are a few:
Marie-Julie: “I burn with the love that burns the souls who pray at Paray-le-Monial. Come, come, my sister Margaret Mary with my dear Spouse. Oh! France! Hasten, the time is near. France is saved! The Sacred Heart has signed its deliverance! O my sister, you verily took part in its pain. Poor France! It has neither father nor mother, (for) she had abandoned Jesus and Mary. Come, the great proud ones of the earth, kings defiled, come see the wonder of the Sacred Heart. Come, great emperors, come and see, you will be confounded. The Sacred Heart will take vengeance on the wicked.
O Margaret Mary, your revelation is accomplished, France is saved! At Paray, what songs of joy! All come with hope, with the cry of hope that France is saved!”
The next day, Marie-Julie had another ecstasy (June 17, 1875) and she said to her confessor:
“My dear Spouse said, 'My Heart is much comforted by the prayers of France.'
Our Lord wrote in His Heart: 'France is saved by My Divine Heart.'
The people shout the same thing. Do not say "save France", but "France is saved!" Margaret Mary made me see the procession of pilgrims bearing green branches. I saw how pilgrims and their prayers had advanced the triumph. Margaret Mary was there and asked Our Lord to bless the good group that loves the Sacred Heart and asked the salvation of France. And Our Lord told her to ask what she wanted. Through her, you will obtain because she is closest to the Divine Heart.
She (St. Margaret Mary) says: 'My dear Souse, two hundred years ago you promised to save France and her children.'
Our Lord answered with His Heart wide open:
'Yes, that is why you can say: France is saved.'
Our Lord has waited many years before revealing the secrets of Margaret Mary.
On June 25, 1875,He said Marie-Julie:
'I will not be long in making known to you My secrets. Soon the secret will be discovered and the whole world will witness My love and My power.'
Three days later (June 28, 1875) He also said to Marie-Julie:
'I will operate greater miracles for you than for your sister Margaret Mary.'
