Seven Our Father

dwunastoletnia modlitwa św

Saint Bridget of Sweden, the great 14th-century Mystic and Visionary, was given a set of Prayers by Our Divine Lord, to be prayed for 12 years. These prayers are meditations on the seven times that Christ shed His Precious Blood on our account.

Saint Brigit prayed for a long time 1 to know how many blows Our Lord suffered during His terrible Passion. Rewarding her patience, one day He appeared to her and said:  "I received 5475 blows upon My Body. If you wish to honor them in some way, recite fifteen Our Fathers and fifteen Hail Mary with the following Prayers, which I Mys11elf shall teach you, for an entire year. When the year is finished, you will have honored each of My Wounds."
