Venerable Louise Margaret Claret de la Touche

The writings of this saintly nun are ideal reading for every priest and seminarian, but also for lay people because she received great insights into the Infinite Love of God. The term “Infinite Love” is the name that she used for God. She was given the mission to remind the Church of the most important message in the Bible and indeed in the world which is that “God is Love” (1 John 4:8). Everything else we know about the nature of God and everything He has done for mankind is due to the fact that “God is Love”

Venerable Louise Margaret Claret de la Touche, 15th March 1868 to 14th of May 1915

She was a French Visitation nun who had to overcome many and great obstacles all through her life to do God's will. She suffered to a heroic degree in many ways and was truly a victim soul. Our Lord revealed to her His plan of infinite love for the world for which He needs the help of His chosen souls, the priests of the world.

The message of Sister Louise Margaret may be summarized as follows:
1. God is Infinite Love. All that is and all that He has created is love.
2. God wants to renew this world full of hate with a particular outpouring of love.
3. God wants to entrust this mission to priests and, therefore, He wants to fill them, first of all, with love by inviting them to enter the Heart of Christ and draw love from there. Only after having had the experience of being loved by Christ can priests change the world by sowing love with open hands.
The response of priests to the privileged love of Christ should find expression in an act of donation of their hearts to Christ and of adoration of His Heart. Entrusting themselves to this love, priests can fulfil a mission of love in the world.

Of her mission, she herself wrote:

“I was not born to be a religious, or to be a superior. In the designs of Providence, I was to be both, but that is not my raison d'être. My raison d'être is to be a nothing, a feather flying with the wind, a grain of sand heaved up by the sea. But this feather and this grain of sand are messengers of Infinite Love. Yes, my role here below is to publish the good news throughout the world, the good news that can never be repeated by enough people, the good news that has been repeated for the last twenty centuries without ceasing to be the news that all men have need to learn. It is that God is Love, and that consequently, He loves His creatures. To know this would mean happiness for the individual, happiness for peoples, happiness for humanity. But people refuse to believe it and thus refuse to be happy, because men's intellects, for want of this light, remain in darkness. Men's hearts, for want of this heat, remain cold and sad.”
