Here's the story Saint Faustina wrote in her diary: “Today I was awakened by a great storm. The wind was raging, and it was raining in torrents, thunderbolts striking again and again. I began to pray that the storm would do no harm, when I heard the words: 'Say the chaplet I have taught you, and the storm will cease! I began immediately to say the chaplet and hadn't even finished it when the storm suddenly ceased, and I heard the words; 'Through the chaplet you will obtain everything, if what you ask for is compatible with My will!" (Diary, 1731)

"Say the chaplet I have taught you, and the storm will cease." - Jesus to Saint Faustina

Brownie has been such a big part of our hearts and lives, which we have shared with our Collins Travel community. With sadness, we share that our little Brownie passed on this morning. But he is now in the loving warmth and light of His Creator — who loves him even more than we do! We’re sure he’s still up to Holy mischief, running amongst the heavenly squirrels, hanging out with his buddy Sugar (entered in 2019) and basking in Jesus’ holy presence. Our Lady has taken over chasing after him for the time being. 😇💙💙💙 This is just “Goodbye for now, little Brownie. We’ll see you again.” 💔❤️‍🩹

DID YOU KNOW… Jesus appeared to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque many times in the 1600s at her convent in France. During the many visits, Jesus gave 12 Promises for those who have a devotion to his Sacred Heart. They are:

The Promises of the Sacred Heart of Jesus to St. Margaret Mary

(1) “I will give them all the graces necessary in their state of life.

(2) I will establish peace in their homes.

(3) I will comfort them in all their afflictions.

(4) I will be their secure refuge during life, and above all, in death.

(5) I will bestow abundant blessings upon all their undertakings.

(6) Sinners will find in my Heart the source and infinite ocean of mercy.

(7) Lukewarm souls shall become fervent.

(8) Fervent souls shall quickly mount to high perfection.

(9) I will bless every place in which an image of my Heart is exposed and honored.

10) I will give to priests the gift of touching the most hardened hearts.

(11) Those who shall promote this devotion shall have their names written in my Heart.

(12) I promise you in the excessive mercy of my Heart that my all-powerful love will grant to all those who receive Holy Communion on the First Fridays in nine consecutive months the grace of final perseverance; they shall not die in my disgrace, nor without receiving their sacraments. My divine Heart shall be their safe refuge in this last moment.”

Today, May 30, is the Feast Day of St. Joan of Arc. While just a teenager, St. Joan of Arc, a peasant girl with no education or military training, felt God calling her to intercede on behalf of her country of France during the Hundred Years War. Brave and courageous, she was steadfast in her Catholic faith and beliefs. She heard the voice of St. Michael the Archangel, as well as several saints, encouraging her along the way. St. Joan of Arc was eventually captured by the English, tried and burned at the stake on May 30, 1431 in the region of Normandy, France. Though she died at just age 19, her bravery and courage forever live on. St. Joan of Arc, patron Saint of France, pray for us!

The humble French woman had little education, but her spiritual wisdom was profound and is recognized by the Church and quoted several times in the Catechism.
