F. J. GIRARD, V. G.

These Prayers and these Promises have been copied from a book printed in Toulouse in 1740 and
published by the P. Adrien Parvilliers of the Company of Jesus, Apostolic Missionary of the Holy
Land, with approbation, permission and recommendation to distribute them.

Parents and teachers who will read them to young infants for at least one year will assure
their being preserved for life from any grave accident which would involve the loss of one of
their five senses.

Pope Pius IX took cognizance of these Prayers with the prologue; he approved them May 31, 1862,
recognizing them as true and for the good of souls.

This sentence of Pope Pius IX has been confirmed by the realization of the promises by all persons
who have recited the prayers and by numerous supernatural facts by which God wanted to make known
their exact truth. A collection of small books, these prayers among them, was approved by the
Great Congress of Malines on August 22, 1863.

These prayers can serve as the Way of the Cross.
