VENERATION OF THE RELICS OF SAINT MARGARET MARY ALACOQUE IN THE ARCHDIOCESE OF PHILADELPHIA
Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque, July 22, 1647-October 17, 1690, was a French Visitation nun and mystic who promoted devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus in its modern form. Many mystics throughout the centuries have had apparitions of Mary around the world, while, seemingly, Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque and Saint Faustina received messages from our Savior, Jesus Christ.
