Chaplet of the Most Precious Blood

July is the month of The Most Precious Blood of Jesus Christ.

I have this Chaplet and a booklet about devotion to the Blood of Christ. I’ll have to find it!

Oh the blood of Jesus, it washes white as snow.

Prayer Ping!

Please fill in the details. It seemed to me like some of it was missing.

What you’ve posted seems like what I’ve got on the pamphlet that came with the chaplet (which may be in the nightstand ...).

The chaplet has six sections of five beads each (6x5=30) and one section of three, for a total of 33 Our Fathers.

Prayers offered up for those seeking direction in their walk of faith.

Thank you. I also hope to find my marbles, and perhaps even some extra shower curtains and the Topic.

Thanks for the post.

My parish has a special devotion to the Precious Blood; it has been staffed for over 150 years by priests of the Missionaries of the Precious Blood order (CPPS). Their sacrifice and devotion has led thousands to a life following Christ.

When you find the shower curtains let us know! LOL! St. Anthony, look around, something’s lost and can’t be found!

That’s the first I ever heard of that order. Thanks for the info.

Thanks for the posting. This is a devotion I’d like to start.

The shower curtains and the Topic are an old Undead Thread joke. I will look for the Precious Blood items, though.

Well, you can tell that I never hung out on the old undead thread. LOL! (Naive, aren’t I?) LOL!

Please, please make this a devotional thread.

May the Precious Blood of Our Lord, be taken up by the Father as atonement for our sins and that of the whole world.

Those who need the Undead Thread find it. The rest can’t see it.

I bet you have seen this dramatic painting as displayed on Vultus Christi

Feast of the Most Precious Blood

The first time I saw Bernini's little known depiction of the Blood of Christ, I was completely smitten by it. The Eternal Father contemplates the outpouring of the Blood of the Son. The Angels are awestruck by what they see. Blood pours out of the hands, and feet, and open side of the Crucified.

The Mother of Jesus, she who is the perfect image of the Church, raises her hands to receive the crimson torrent gushing from the inner sanctuary of His Sacred Heart. Beneath the Cross there is an ocean of Blood: Blood to cleanse the world of every stain of sin, of every crime, of every defilement. If you would know the value of the Precious Blood, ask the Mother of the Lamb.

Priests and the Precious Blood

"My maternal heart yearns to lead all my priest sons into the presence of my Jesus, the Lamb by Whose Blood the world is saved and purified of sin. My priest sons must be the first to experience the healing power of the Blood of the Lamb of God. I ask all my priest sons to bear witness to the Precious Blood of Jesus. They are the ministers of His Blood. His Blood is in their hands to purify and refresh the living and the dead."

Apply It to Your Wounds

"I desire that all priests should become aware of the infinite value and power of but a single drop of the Blood of my Son. . . . Adore His Precious Blood in the Sacrament of His Love. His Blood mixed with water flows ceaselessly from His Eucharistic Heart, His Heart pierced by the soldier’s lance to purify and vivify the whole Church, but in the first place, to purify and vivify His priests. When you come into His Eucharistic presence, be aware of His Precious Blood streaming from His Open Heart. Adore His Blood and apply it to your wounds and to the wounds of souls."

Purity Wherever It Flows

"The Blood of my Son brings purity and healing and new life wherever it flows. Implore the power of the Precious Blood over yourself and over all priests. Whenever you are asked to intercede for souls, invoke the power of the Precious Blood over them, and present them to the Father covered with the Blood of the Lamb."

No I have not seen it before. What a powerful image. The world should tremble at His sacrifice.

Just found this wonderful blog site.
