In 1923, Sister Josefa Menendez died at the age of thirty-three at the Convent of Les Feuillants, Poitiers. During her earthly life she had received visions from the Lord that spoke of His unfathomable love for the world. Everything in Josefa's life is grace giving and profoundly moving. Her writings and her life confirm each other, as evidence that all that took place in her was divine in origin. Even the most extraordinary happenings have an aim and significance. There are no useless details, no record of revelations that do not bring out in clearer light and force some dogmatic truth, giving us deeper insight into the Heart of Our Lord, His love, the value of souls, the happiness of heaven, the irreparable loss of the damned.
