N.B. Mimi will be 38 on the 8th of July 1953
– Mimi:Today, my Beloved came to me with so much love. Once again, I experienced how great and infinite is His mercy. With the permission of my director, I made a general review, that is, an inventory of my life, my poor miserable life. Following the example of Jesus, my director received me so paternally, with so much understanding, that it is with confidence that I opened, a little, the secret door of my soul. How happy I was!
What does a little girl do when she has a lot of joy; she runs to her mother to tell her the good news. So, why not share this great happiness with my Heavenly Mother! I went to my Gentle Heavenly Mother to thank Her and to ask Her to protect me, to keep me near her Motherly heart where I will be safe. I also asked Her to express, on my behalf, all my joy and my gratitude to Her Divine Son; to give Him my love.
– Mimi: “My Gentle Heavenly Mother, would you please place on the forehead of My Gentle Jesus a kiss of peace that I offer Him, I His poor little girl; I am so unworthy to approach Him. But this gentle kiss coming from You, from Your lips so pure, will please Him very much.
I also thanked God the Father for His great mercy on my behalf; God the Son for showing so much love towards His poor little girl. I also thanked the Holy Spirit for all the graces I received, especially the necessary light that enlightened my spirit in my dark moments.
During this great moment of happiness, I did not forget my spiritual director who played an important role in my life; I owe him so much! If I am presently able to raise my eyes to heaven, it is thanks to him; I am thinking about all that he did for my soul. So many prayers, masses, sacrifices of all kinds! How much my soul cost him! I gave thanks to God for all these graces.
I gave my Gentle Mother of heaven all the souls of poor sinners; I asked that they encounter in their lives someone who would help them and guide them along the right road; that they might experience the true peace of soul. I am so happy that I would like to shout my joy to the whole world and say :
– Mimi: “Come to Him, all of you; if you only knew how much He loves you; how much He wishes to have pure hearts giving and surrendering themselves to His Holy Will! How He expects a lot from souls ready to offer themselves to Him at every moment.
I wish for all souls the great happiness I am experiencing and that we only find in Him. However, Jesus made me understand that I had to pray more to better know Him and love Him even more, in order to serve Him faithfully.”
– Mimi: “My God, I would so much like to prove my love for You; I would like to live continually near You, to work with You for the salvation of Souls! Do you want me to?”
– Jesus: “Why would I have waited so long for you? Didn’t I often tell you what I expected from you? Remember the circumstances that brought you closer to Me.
I chose a spiritual director for you whom you must trust for I placed him on your path to guide you; he will guide you according to My Will and My orders. Meditate on these words : Love, Trust, Reparation, Vows. I beg of you, no more doubts, offer…, offer more and with more love and trust.”

– Mimi: Thanks to the goodness of my Beloved, I had the great pleasure of attending Holy Mass and receiving communion. On this beautiful anniversary, it seemed to me that Our two souls were more intimately united. What wishes were given on this occasion! What thanksgiving! What demands!
– Jesus: “Do not forget this beautiful day. We are also sharing your joy. However, may this day remain a day of thanksgiving, of spiritual rejoicing.”
– Mimi: “My happiness is great, I had a long conversation with my Beloved. How He loves me and how I love Him! Is it possible for my heart to contain so much love? In silence and solitude, We shared our many wishes. How small I felt near His adorable heart!
In a moment of fervent love I asked Him:"What do You want from me, my Beloved?”
– Jesus: “I want you to be all Mine! See how patient I have been; I have been looking for you for a long time. I was calling you but you always turned a deaf ear; you didn’t even hear My complaints. However, I never ceased loving you, in spite of your ingratitude and contempt. Think a little about the sorrow that My Divine Mother felt in seeing your indifference, you, Her child. Yet, She always remained near you and watched over you. She leaned over your crib to protect you for She already knew My great desire to unite Myself with you one day as spouse… I beg you, trust Me!
Believe in Me, in My word, in My love for you; if you only knew how beautiful I want your soul to be, pure, full of simplicity, humility, love. Abandon yourself completely into My arms. I will protect you; let Me work in your soul in order to purify it and render it agreeable to My Father. For a long time, I have been lavishing you with My favors. No one on earth is able to understand the great mystery of My infinite mercy. It is so easy for a soul who wants to surrender himself to Me to find Peace. Do not forget these words, to want is to have.”
22 February 1953
– Mimi: I had just offered myself to Him.
– Jesus: “I have been waiting for this for a long time when freely you would offer yourself with all your misery, your sincerity, but especially with all your love. Fear not. I am yours forever. I and you. I want you as spouse. However, I want to make an alliance with you. With the permission of your director, I allow you to wear the ring of the Virgin that he will bless in My name on the day he will choose. With this blessed ring, you will recognize My great mercy and My love for you. In wearing this blessed ring, it will be your shield, it will protect you all your life from your enemies, from the devil’s attacks, from temptations; it will also help you fulfill your role as a spouse of Christ and remain faithful. In moments of spiritual aridity, doubts, fears, troubles of all kinds, dejection, loneliness, abandonment, you only have to glance at this ring, to remember this day, this alliance, you who are nothing and I who am everything. Know that I am but love. Isn’t it marvellous? I and you. Nothing is impossible to God; have no more doubts, My little one. Doesn’t the Creator have the right to unite Himself to His creature as He wants?
Do not try to understand the mystery of Divine love. May this day remain engraved in your memory. This must count as the most important year of your life.”
27 February 1953
– Mimi: I received the visit of my Beloved; how happy I was!
I went for a short visit. We were preparing the monstrance altar for the forty-hours. I was so happy to see such beauty, with what care we were preparing everything, flowers, curtains, lights, etc. My eyes weren’t big enough to take everything in… But suddenly the little voice softly said:
– Jesus: “Why do you allow yourself to be so easily distracted? Prepare your soul, think about the beautiful offering you will give me.
− Mimi: “What do you want from me?”
– Jesus: “With the permission of your director, offer Me during the forty hours, three holy hours. The first one will be an hour of love and adoration, the second one, an hour of reparation you will do on your knees in a spirit of humility, the third one, an hour of requests.
Adore Me in My sacrament of love, I the Unknown One, the King of kings, the Supreme Master. Unite yourself to My Divine Mother, to My celestial court. Come in all simplicity and speak to Me about love. I so need to receive the impulses of your soul during this hour. We will exchange our avowals. We will speak about our projects. Give thanks for all the care I am giving you. Believe in my love for you, My poor little one. One hour with Me goes by quickly when one listens to My voice, when one dares speak to Me heart to heart with confidence. Speak to Me also for the souls who do not dare believe in My love, in My mercy. In spite of their conduct, I love them all, I love you all.”
Saturday 28 February 1953
– Mimi: “What book should I bring during this holy hour?”
– Jesus: “None… Find a way of approaching Me, My poor little one. Simply offer Me your heart and spirit. If you like, We will read together from the book of your life.”
– Mimi: “At last We are alone, my Beloved. I want to thank you for the great favors I received today. With the permission of my director, I can offer You two holy hours. The first from 4 to 5, an hour of love and adoration; ther third will be for tomorrow; the second from 7 to 8, an hour of reparation.
I asked my Gentle Mother of heaven to lend me Her heart to speak to You. Then, I closed my eyes to better meditate. I imagined a scene in which I could see You in heaven, seated on Your throne of glory. You, the King of kings, you were in all Your splendor, You, the Supreme Master, surrounded by God the Father, the Holy Spirit, and near You, I could see the Virgin Mary, Saint Joseph, all the saints and the angels. All were prostrated in adoration and praise giving you homage. What a beautiful scene for human eyes!
How small I felt and saw myself amidst all these holy souls; I felt foreign. I was fearful and didn’t dare interrupt such a beautiful spectacle. Yet, I said to myself: “I would like to offer them something.” I looked at my hands; they were empty. I had never felt so sad at seeing my empty hands. I was looking at You, my Beloved.You seemed to say to me: “Come closer, come closer.” Then, suddenly, my Gentle Heavenly Mother, seeing my hesitation, my worry, She understood in Her Motherly heart and sharing my sorrow, said to me softly:
− Mary: “You are sad because you have nothing to offer My Divine Son. What about your little heart?”
– Mimi: “I immediately understood. In all respect, humility and sincerity, I approached you. I will never forget your gentle look, ô my Love. I understand now how Mary Madeleine was unable to resist this merciful look, so gentle; this gave me confidence. Holding the hand of my Gentle Mother of heaven, I was coming closer and closer to You, to speak to you a little. This is what I said:
– Mimi: “My Beloved, You have before you the littlest and most despicable of Your creatures. See my empty hands and I am not rich in virtues, as You know. However, I also wish to offer You something to prove my Love. Here is my heart that I purified through the sacrament of Penance. It is yours forever; it is filled with love for You; I give it to You, keep it.
I also offer you my life, the way you want it. I ask Your help; I will try to fulfill my obligations properly each day with love and submission.
One thing must always be on my mind, and that is to always do Your Holy Will at all times, never to lose you through sin. I am certain I will reach my goal, to attain one day my ideal for I am relying on You. I am also asking for the help of my Gentle Mother of heaven. I know that what I am offering You isn’t much; it’s the best I can do. Are you pleased with me? with my little offering?"
– Jesus: “Yes, but there exists a shyness on your part. My poor little one, you say you love Me; why then do you take so many detours to tell Me? Why do you hesitate in proving it to Me? Remember when a friend announced her visit how happy and excited you were, nothing was missing: appearance, smiles, all kinds of attention, etc.
I, your God, I don’t ask for so much; only to trust Me, to love Me. How easily you are distracted. You must purify your spirit and your heart. Always remain humble, do not be preoccupied by human concerns, give them to Me; I’ll take care of them. Am I not the strongest of the two? You know very well that I am watching over you who are frail, so little. Why be afraid? My poor little one, only one thing counts for Me: love, yes love.
Am I not a God of love?
Am I not He who has given everything out of love?
Am I not your hope, your guide, your support, your Beloved? I beg you, tell Me often that you love Me, that you believe in My love.
I love to hear you say it, with this simplicity of a child that you show Me at times."
Detach yourself from all things created. If you wish some day to become My spouse, begin by trusting Me and loving Me the way I deserve.
Also, put your trust in your director, for, remember that he is taking My place; confide yourself in him and allow him to penetrate the deepest regions of your soul; tell him about Our conversations for he alone can guide you and help you. Also, be very obedient and submissive. Be faithful in following his advice; by following his directives, you are sure to do My Holy Will and to walk on the right path.
I am telling you and repeating that he alone can understand you for he has suffered a lot. See how good I’ve been to you; didn’t I choose him for you? And under what circumstances? Listen to Me very closely; some day, I will manifest Myself in him in order to build your confidence.
In your conversations with your director, do not speak about your surroundings and unimportant things; ask him to teach you how to know Me and love Me like I want to be loved by you. Let him teach you also to pray with confidence, like he does for he knows Me. As for you, you don’t. I want you to be all Mine. I am at times a jealous God. So, My poor little one, no more affections in your life, detach yourself, uproot from your heart all that could harm your holiness. There must be nothing left. I ask for a total gift of yourself.
Before ending our conversation, We will meditate on the Credo.
I believe in God, the Father Almighty.
Examine yourself closely; are you sure you believe in the existence of God the Father in your soul? In your life? Do you know Him as He should, Him the unknown God, Him the Almighty, Him the absolute Master of all things. You can continue to meditate the remainder with your director, if possible.
Now, My poor little one, Our projects will be to never leave one another; you need My love and I need yours. From now on, I will ask a lot from you for you have been filled to the brim; I gave you more than you wished and deserved. We have been moved by your repentance and sincerity; your good will has pleased My Father very much; this is why I will help you; however, do not leave Me, follow Me; am I not the truth? I am the God of might; so, come close, I will be your guide. Ask My Divine Mother for Her protection, that She envelop you in Her mantle of glory; you are so little, so weak, so frail. You are in Our eyes almost nothing. This is why I come to you. Without Me, you are nothing; I am the Almighty."
– Mimi: “To my surprise, I saw that the hour was over and that I was no longer alone; yet, I was sure there was no one near me; I can’t explain what happened between Us; I feel like I had a beautiful dream and I thank You for it.
As for now, I have to leave You, my Beloved. How time flies in Your presence. I would like to stay some more, near You, and it makes me sad to have to return to my work but I must keep on smiling since all that I will do will be for You."
Saturday 28 February 1953
– Jesus: “My poor little one, offer Me this hour of reparation for the poor sinners who don’t even think about reparation. How many souls think only about My mercy and do not even repair their own faults. Offer Me this hour on your knees, in a spirit of humility and reparation for your insults, your contempt, for your numerous sins, your failures, especially for your lack of confidence, your base deeds and finally for all your faults that I have known for such a long time and also in reparation for sinners. Don’t forget, you are one of them."
– Mimi: “In all humility and repentance, I prostrate myself before You, ô my Beloved, in reparation for all the faults committed during such a long time. How guilty I feel; I weep for my sins, especially for my lack of confidence towards You, in Your infinite mercy; what pain these insults have caused You, my creator.
I beg your forgiveness for all my base deeds and contempt. Is it possible, me, your poor little creature, that I was so ungrateful, so evil towards You who are infinitely good, so merciful and loving.
Like Mary Madeleine, let me weep on my sins, at Your feet, poor Jesus of my heart; with all the repentance and firm purpose of amendment, I want to amend my life. I regret each one of my faults; I detest all of them because they have offended You, the Supreme Majesty, and yet I hear your voice telling me:
"You, at least, love Me."I cannot resist this call; I cannot bear this look of supplication without feeling deep sorrow."
– Jesus: “My poor little one, I thirst for souls; repair, offer, love and work. Yes, how many souls ask for My mercy and forget to amend their lives. When I was on earth, it was not sufficient for me to ask My Father: “Forgive them for they know not what they are doing.” Atonement and reparation were also necessary and it was through the crucifixion that I atoned and repaired for you and others. Don’t forget the good thief; after asking Me to forgive him through an act of faith, I promised him heaven but he remained on the cross to atone and repair. Understand, therefore, the importance of sufferings and trials.
See My gentleness, My love in helping you make amends. It is because I love you, that I want you to be Mine. I want to unite you to My passion. What a beautiful gift is the cross! Hear this cry of My heart: will you remain indifferent to so much love?
I want you to repair and atone for yourself and also for the souls of poor sinners. Think a little about how many souls you have lost, perhaps! So, repair! If only this thought penetrated you once and for all, deeply within your mind: to save souls with Me! Do you want to work with Me as a team? I, your director and you. This is my wish: Your director will offer and work, and you will pray and suffer. I will help you and complete what is lacking for without Me you can do nothing… Begin today; I need souls at the cost of even your life. I await your answer; will you follow Me? Out of love?"
– Mimi: “Why are You waiting for my answer? You know very well, my Beloved, You know my ardent desire of never refusing You anything since I want to become one day Your little spouse. I constantly think about Our future union where I will be Yours forever. Does a fiancé refuse anything to her future spouse she loves? To prove to You my love and sincerity, in the presence of My Divine Mother, I renew my vow as a victim of Your merciful love. Remember, my Beloved, the day when, with the permission of my director, I offered myself to You: remember, ô my Love, how happy I was. In memory of this beautiful day and also to console You, I renew this offering as follows:
“Adorable Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, in the presence of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary, my Sovereign and Mediatrix, I offer myself entirely to You for the accomplishment of Your designs of Love and Mercy. In the presence of R.P.R.C., delegate of the Director General of the Association of Victim Souls of Mary Mediatrix, I, G.F., offer myself as a victim of holocaust to Your merciful love, begging You to purify me and consume me, allowing the flow of infinite tenderness from You inundate my soul and thus become a victim of Your love. Moreover, I make the vow of accepting generously the pains and sufferings, in union of mind and heart with Jesus the Redeemer, Victim on Calvary and on the Altar and never to retract this offering.
In making You the gift of myself as victim, I beg You, my Lord and my God to grant me Your grace so that I may remain faithful to You until the day when You will allow me to sing Your praises in the eternal beatitude of heaven. Amen.”
