PERPETUAL INTERCESSION TO

Joseph, the patron of a good death, to St. Michael the Archangel, guardian of souls, to the Angel who consoled Jesus in His agony in the Garden, and, above all, to Jesus Himself, and to His Agonizing Heart; and let them recommend the dying to the prayers of the Association, and especially of the members who are making the half-hour's intercession. We doubt not that the Direc- tors will duly appreciate the advantages of this holy work, and we trust that their zeal will organize a system of visiting which shall include rich as well as poor. The subject should often be brought before the notice of the assembled associates, the most fervent of whom will gladly undertake such an employ- ment. We beg them to do it for the love of the Agonizing Heart of Jesus, which has suffered so much, and has loved us so much; and for the sake of the countless multitude of the dying, of whom so many are in danger of eternal perdition. In a little book of ours, called "The Agonizing Heart of Jesus,"* the Directors will find statutes for the organized visiting of the sick and dying.
