Discovery of the work

Internet. Jesus having told us: "Seek and you will find", I searched and found his writings, by what I call divine providence. Seeing that Pope Pius XII authorized the layout, even ending his point of view with "... those who read will understand... ", I undertook the reading to finish it about 18 months later.

Impact on faith

Several questions and more detailed information, often during a discussion and explanations given to the apostles, or during a one-on-one discussion with an apostle; how many discussions did He have with Judas! This reading allowed me to better understand a number of points that remained obscure in the reading of the Gospels.

Graces received

A new awakening to my faith; a greater desire to share it, to arouse the curiosity of research in my brothers and sisters; to the follow-up of celebrations... but I still have a long way to go.

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

Truth presents itself to you, but... God respects all freedom, and forces no one; He knocks at your door, waits, but will never call the locksmith...

Discovery of the work

I discovered the work of Marie Valtorta while talking to a person who was part of a team studying these texts. I was delighted to discover these writings that I BELIEVE to be the fruit of the grace that this person received throughout her difficult life. These texts are not "invented": they are true and sincere. It is impossible to have invented these writings! The places, the historical facts recounted are too real! I really enjoy reading the texts of Maria Valtorta, particularly the Gospel as it was revealed to me because I feel like I'm spending a little time with Jesus during my reading.

Impact on faith

By spending small moments with Jesus, the description of the environment, the characters, the feelings of one and all, it allowed me to get closer to Jesus and our Holy Apostles whom I now think of more often. I really realize the great Mercy of God and I am touched to the depths of my being. I thus learned that I have a soul and that I have value for Jesus.

Graces received

Maria Valtorta did not particularly convert me. But I can say that she brought me closer to the Lord and allowed me to understand him better (if this is even possible!...)

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

Do not hesitate!

Isabelle

France 路 07/21/2025

Discovery of the work

We are Anne and Isabelle, both educated in the same religious school with the common characteristic of being two blind people. Our paths are different but it was when our paths of faith came closer that we discovered Maria Valtorta. Anne was looking for information about her patron saint and the childhood of Mary, and one Sunday came across a rerun of a children's adaptation of Maria Valtorta's visions of the hidden life of Mary and Jesus. So we looked for the complete work and found the audio version on "Gathering In His Image."

Impact on faith

The first thought that came to us was that indeed we had lived more than half a century without ever hearing about this monumental work and that we had still received the Word of God, but that everything would have been so much easier for us if only, in parallel with the canonical texts, we had been read the particular illumination given by the visions of Maria Valtorta! We also noted that these stories confirm intuitions that were not only ours but also those of great saints like Pope John Paul II. To cite just one example, at the end of his Gospel, John explains that after His Resurrection, the signs given by Jesus would fill an infinite number of volumes on their own. Precisely, the appearance of Jesus to His most holy Mother, which is not reported by any canonical evangelist, has been the subject of such intuitions and we dreamed of being able to read the account somewhere one day, convinced as we were, like Saint John Paul II, that it could not have failed to occur.

Graces received

While I spent years questioning Catholic dogmas about Mary, Maria Valtorta helped me understand: Mary is our mother as well as that of Jesus, true man and true God. Mary was indeed conceived without inheriting either the original sin of our first parents, or any sin from her own parents. Yes, Mary was indeed the virginal wife of Joseph (and not his "wife"), and the "brothers and sisters" of Jesus are actually cousins, the same word being used to describe these family ties in Semitic languages even today. Mary cooperated more than anyone else in the redemptive work of her Divine Son, which she accepted as such from the first day since having spent years in the Temple of Jerusalem, she could not ignore that the Suffering Servant described notably by Isaiah but also by Psalm 21, was not someone else, as evidenced by this moving scene with Elizabeth seen by Maria! Yes, Mary did indeed pass from her earthly life to eternal life with her soul and her body very much alive, John saw her!

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

Upon discovering the work of Maria Valtorta, one finds oneself in increased proximity to the canonical texts proposed by the liturgy. Far from opposing, the two approaches complement each other to a point that will surprise you day after day!

Jean-Michel

France 路 07/21/2025

Discovery of the work

Through the "A son image" editions, I had read the book of Marie Valtorta's life that I had ordered and which had fascinated me.

Impact on faith

Every Sunday I receive a commentary on the Gospel as it was revealed to me by Maria Valtorta, with her visions, and it better helps me understand the issue of faith among the apostles and the thoughts of Jesus. It enriches me spiritually to know what Jesus was thinking during his earthly life.

Graces received

It is a direct teaching without frills but put into the context of Jesus's public life.

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

If he is honest, he can only admire the comments found in the writings of Maria Valtorta. Indeed, they recreate the atmosphere and certain details during the public life of Jesus.

Graces received

A great help in preparing for my meetings with the young middle school students of the chaplaincy.

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

Just start reading the first chapters and let your heart guide you.

Jacques

Discovery of the work

Via internet.

Impact on faith

I felt like I was piecing together the fragments of a chopped-up, overly synthetic Gospel text, with doubts about the coherence of the story. The text and the visions described by Maria are a true revelation of this crucial moment in our humanity, which simply reproduces Jesus' journey on our earth 2000 years ago. Everything becomes visible, the environment, the geographical, political, religious, and human context. Everything becomes understandable, coherent, and real. I am in the process of reading this fascinating work for the second time and I am discovering the true language of Jesus (not reported) and I understand better the content of his message. Essential for every Christian, and to eliminate all residual doubts about the possibilities of such a story that did indeed take place.

Graces received

I go to mass every Sunday and pray every day. Thanks to MARIA, true messenger of the spirit of God.

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

I would advise him to read the writings of Maria Valtorta, for my part it really strengthened my faith and dispelled my doubts.

Michel Mboussou

Gabon 路 07/21/2025

Discovery of the work

I received an anonymous subscription to "Jesus Today" and wanted to learn about Maria Valtorta's work on the internet. I was captivated by the testimony of scientists about the veracity of her visions. And each time, both in consultation (I am a psychiatrist) and in everyday life with Christians from other denominations, I recommend reading Maria Valtorta on the life of Jesus, and particularly on the role of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the history of the Church, through Her numerous apparitions, asking these Christians for their return to the Church of Rome.

Impact on faith

By strengthening my faith in the Church and the Gospel that I now read daily.

Graces received

I go to mass every Sunday, barring unforeseen circumstances, and taking my communion, and thanks to the Eucharistic miracles that I introduce to my surroundings, I am convinced that beyond the symbol, it is the Body and Blood of Christ that is found in the host. And it is indeed the work of Maria Valtorta that made us discover these miracles.

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

I would say that reading Maria Valtorta's work could strengthen one's faith, and show how much Jesus and His Mother love us.

Edme ROBERT

France 路 07/21/2025

Discovery of the work

Following the study of Jean-Pierre Petit's equations, and his testimony about having testified to being projected at the time of the construction of the Kephren pyramid, a coherent description, I stumbled upon a post about Maria Valtorta being projected to the time of Jesus.

Impact on faith

Having "definitively" considered the inconsistencies, contradictions, errors (the mustard seed that becomes a tree!!!) of the New Testament, I completely abandoned Catholicism and became a Buddhist. The reading of Maria Valtorta, despite some errors due to estimates and transcriptions, surprised me with its great coherence and accuracy.

Graces received

Each reading allows me to know Jesus (and other characters like Mary) better and therefore to love him more and more. Since then, I have been reading the New Testament with pleasure and finding practically no inconsistencies. I have become practicing again.

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

Let yourself be bathed in realism and Love. Make the book of Jean-Fran莽ois Lav猫re, Volume 1, The Valtorta Enigma. This encourages reading the Work of Jesus written by Maria Valtorta. Conversions are taking place.

Impact on faith

I have developed a love for Christ that I had never known before.

Graces received

I was very lukewarm before reading the revealed Gospel but my faith became much stronger afterwards.

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

Read and you will understand.

Madeleine Gauthier

Canada 路 07/21/2025

Discovery of the work

A good friend introduced me to the 10 volumes.

Impact on faith

I am a visual person. These books have GREATLY helped me understand the gospels. I have always had difficulty believing that Jesus loved me to this extent. Now, I have no doubt. How Good and Merciful our Savior is.

Graces received

My faith has grown a hundredfold. I understand the 7 sacraments better. I have a passion for the Holy Eucharist. How grateful I am to Jesus for giving us His Body and His Precious Blood. How He suffered for me, a great sinner. I will be grateful to Him for all eternity.

What would you say to someone hesitating to discover this work?

Have faith, your soul will thank you. Your soul will heal and you will no longer be afraid to approach your Savior. He awaits you with open arms. He loves you madly; so madly that He went to the Cross to save you.
