St. Leonard: By the "Most Holy Name of Jesus... there will be Nothing more [of] Fear, nor of Witches , neither of Evil"
St. Leonard of Porto-Maurizio said that the "Most Holy Name of Jesus painted or carved [on the doors of your home means], there will be nothing more [of] fear, nor of witches , neither of evil, nor of accidents of fate":
"Oh, do not deny me this grace, which will all redeem for your good. Preaching our glorious St. Bernardine in the city of Ferrara assaulted by a fierce plague, he exhorted everyone to the devotion and veneration of the Most Holy Name of Jesus, and all those citizens lit themselves up with such a beautiful devotion that they placed the Most Holy Name of Jesus on the doors of their homes, and with this they remained free from the infectious disease. Those from Padua obtained the same, who in persuasion of the Saint embraced so holy a devotion; and in Camaiore, land of the Republic of Lucca, the Saint promised that if they had carved, and painted the Most Holy Name of Jesus on the doors of their houses, they would never have been assaulted by the plague and, in conformity, promised, so it happened, although at various times all the surrounding places have been desolated by a scourge. What do you say, beloved? will you have repugnance to this little inconvenience? But consider it grace the great good that will come to all your houses, be assured, that in those houses, on the doors of which you will see the Most Holy Name of Jesus painted or carved, there will be nothing more than fear, nor of witches , neither of evil, nor of accidents of fate. Oh how many lightning strikes, how many disasters your houses will be free of! A hundred, therefore, a hundred, and a thousand times blessed are those houses which will bear the Most Holy Name of Jesus on their foreheads, and woe to those houses where Jesus will not be seen! it will be a nest of demons, and will be subject to a thousand misfortunes. Go on, compete with those who make him paint more beautiful, or waste your time, from tomorrow on, explain such a beautiful livery of the Most Holy Name of Jesus."

Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Mass and the Church as well as for the Triumph of the Kingdom of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
