Devotion of the day: the graces and indulgences of the Crucifix

PROMISES of our Lord to those who honor and venerate the Holy Crucifix

The Lord in 1960 would make these promises to one of his humble servants:

1) Those who exhibit the Crucifix in their homes or jobs and decorate it with flowers will reap many blessings and rich fruit in their work and initiatives, together with immediate help and comfort in their problems and sufferings.

2) Those who look at the Crucifix even for a few minutes, when they are tempted or are in battle and effort, especially when they are tempted by anger, will immediately master themselves, temptation and sin.

3) Those who meditate every day, for 15 minutes, on My Agony on the Cross, will surely support their sufferings and their annoyances, first with patience later with joy.

4) Those who very often meditate on My wounds on the Cross, with deep sorrow for their sins and sins, will soon acquire a deep hatred for sin.

5) Those who often and at least twice a day will offer my three hours of Agony on the Cross to Heavenly Father for all the negligence, indifference and shortcomings in following good inspirations will shorten his punishment or be completely spared.

6) Those who willingly recite the Rosary of the Holy Wounds daily, with devotion and great confidence while meditating on My Agony on the Cross, will obtain the grace to fulfill their duties well and with their example they will induce others to do the same.

7) Those who will inspire others to honor the Crucifix, My most precious Blood and My Wounds and who will also make known My Rosary of the Wounds will soon receive an answer to all their prayers.

8) Those who do the Via Crucis daily for a certain period of time and offer it for the conversion of sinners can save an entire Parish.

9) Those who 3 consecutive times (not on the same day) visit an image of Me Crucified, honor it and offer Heavenly Father My Agony and Death, My most precious Blood and My Wounds for their sins will have a beautiful death and will die without agony and fear.

10) Those who every Friday, at three in the afternoon, meditate on My Passion and Death for 15 minutes, offering them together with My Precious Blood and My Holy Wounds for themselves and for the dying people of the week, will obtain a high level of love and perfection and they can be sure that the devil will not be able to cause them further spiritual and physical harm.

INDULGENCES related to the use of the Crucifix

In articulo mortis (at the time of death)
To the faithful in danger of death, who cannot be assisted by a priest who administers the sacraments and gives him the apostolic blessing with the attached plenary indulgence, the holy Mother Church also grants plenary indulgence at the point of death, provided that it is duly disposed and has habitually recited some prayers during life. For the purchase of this indulgence the use of the crucifix or the cross is recommended.
The condition "provided that he habitually recited some prayers during his life" in this case makes up for the three usual conditions required for the purchase of the plenary indulgence.
This plenary indulgence at the point of death can be gained by the faithful who, on the same day, have already purchased another plenary indulgence.

Obiectorum pietatis usus (Use of objects of piety)
The faithful who devoutly use an object of piety (crucifix or cross, crown, scapular, medal), blessed by any priest, can gain a partial indulgence.
If then this religious object is blessed by the Supreme Pontiff or by a Bishop, the faithful, who devoutly uses it, can also acquire the plenary indulgence on the feast of the holy Apostles Peter and Paul, however adding the profession of faith with any legitimate formula.
