With help from the friends of God, the Carmelite Nuns of the Monastery of Our Mother of Mercy and St. Joseph in Alexandria, South Dakota will build a new chapel dedicated to the Holy Face of Jesus . The purpose of this devotion is to make reparation for blasphemy against the first three commandments: denial of God, profanation of the Holy Name of God, and the non-observance of Sundays and Holy Days.

The Sisters feel called to dedicate their new chapel in honor of the Holy Face of Jesus. This devotion traces its roots to 1844, when the Carmelite nun Sr. Mary of St. Peter received visions from Jesus asking her to promote a devotion to His Holy Face as reparation for sinners.
