Curiously in a booklet on Catolic culture and knowledge, it pointed out that the cult was very popular in Catalunya from 1850s-1930 just like in Quebec.<BR/><BR/>I was struck at how both regions share many similarities and the cult highlighted universal Catholic culture<BR/><BR/>xavierxavierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15924047562026242210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-78641196099083762762008-05-30T18:06:00.000-04:002008-05-30T18:06:00.000-04:00Great points, Georgette.Thank you, Veritas.Great points, Georgette.<BR/><BR/>Thank you, Veritas.elena maria vidalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17129629173535139807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-54555275250729258642008-05-30T15:27:00.000-04:002008-05-30T15:27:00.000-04:00A very interesting, enjoyable and informative post...A very interesting, enjoyable and informative post which I pondered on while out a walk this fine May evening.<BR/>I like too what Georgette says about the special graces on a day such as this - special I'm sure - and many.Ann Murrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01450326751657089715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-23434283104921889642008-05-30T11:38:00.000-04:002008-05-30T11:38:00.000-04:00Amen! When I first read Trianon, I remember closin...Amen! <BR/><BR/>When I first read Trianon, I remember closing the book and thinking for a long time all the many fruits which came from that secret consecration to the Sacred Heart which King Louis had done right before his death. Think of the many, many contemporary Saints to have come out of France, and teh many devotions: St Terese, the Little Flower and her "Little Way"; St Catherine Laboure and her devotion to the Miraculous Metal; St Bernadette adn her devotion to Our Lady of Lourdes; even St Louis de Montfort, whose True Devotion to Mary was found hidden in a monastery which had been burned out during the rampages against the Church during the French Revolution. And the list goes on. I think it is quite apparent that the Lord did indeed accept the King's efforts consecrating his country, the seed sown, which he then watered with his own blood. <BR/><BR/>I am sure there are special graces this day, that the two feasts come together--that of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and St Joan of Arc's feast day. <BR/><BR/>~GeorgetteAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
