I am the only one who has great need of God’s mercy…

…show compassion to those poor Catholics, deprived of all spiritual assistance…

…unless God has mercy on me, I am in the [state] which leads to the depths of the abyss.

I beg His Divine Mercy to give you for this purpose an ample share of His Spirit…

May those whom you are going to assist experience the effects of His mercy!

… the great benefits there are, in this world and in the next, for souls who practice works of mercy in so many ways, as you are doing!

…ask God’s mercy on the most abominable and despicable sinner in the world, who is, Monsieur, your most humble and very obedient servant…

…the very faith, of which he made so many acts, always served him as a shield to resist the assaults of temptation and, at the same time, as a torch to see clearly the immensity of God’s mercy…

When I showed compassion for their distress, and expressed sorrow for their misfortune, it was then that they listened to me, gave glory to God, and opened themselves to salvation.

I ask Our Lord to grant him the grace of recognizing his faults and making amends for them.
