What does devotion to the Holy Face look like, and how can it be lived every day?

In this powerful work, Fr. Lawrence Carney III—author of The Secret of the Holy Face: The Devotion Destined to Save Society—leads readers through the classical stages of the spiritual life: the Purgative, Illuminative, and Unitive Ways. He shows how this devotion, revealed to Sr. Marie de Saint-Pierre, is both a personal path of holiness and a remedy for a troubled world.

Fr. Carney draws on the wisdom of spiritual masters such as Pseudo-Dionysius, Thomas Aquinas, and John of the Cross, along with saints who practiced explicit devotion to the Holy Face. With clarity and pastoral care, he offers guidance for cultivating peace and unity with God in the midst of chaos.

Practical schedules for consecration are included, designed to conclude on specific feast days, helping souls bring order and rhythm to their prayer. This highest consecration—to God Himself—builds on other consecrations and moves the faithful closer to the Triumph of the Church, for which Christ gave the Chaplet of the Holy Face.

Devotion to the Holy Face leads to greater intimacy with Our Lord, who humbled Himself so that we may share eternal beatitude with Him.
