Pardon Crucifix

Regular price $3.50
This crucifix was introduced at the Marian Congress of Rome in 1904, with the support of his Eminence Cardinal Coullié, Archbishop of Lyon. It was through the discourse made to him by the Frs Lémann that the crucifix obtained general approval. The project of a union around this crucifix was presented to His Holiness by the Most Eminent Cardinal Vivès, president of the Congress.

 

St Pius X granted, among others, the following indulgences for all Catholics by a rescript of 1 June, 1905:

  • Whoever carries the pardon crucifix will have the privilege to gain 300 day's indulgence, daily.
  • In kissing it devotedly, one gains each time 100 day's indulgence
  • He who pronounces before this crucifix one of the two following invocations gains each time an indulgence of seven years and seven quarantines: Our Father Who art in heaven, forgive us our offences as we forgive those who have offended us.--I beg the Blessed Virgin Mary to pray for me to the Lord our God.
  • Whoever, in danger of death, receives the sacraments of the Church, or contrite of Heart if it is impossible to receive them, shall kiss this crucifix and ask pardon of God for his sins and forgives whoever has offended him, gains a plenary indulgence
