“Child, I desire to share with you facts about My Passion and Death that have heretofore remained hidden. I will disclose these things to you in Conversations with Divine Love on Fridays during Lent. Then I will ask you to print the first volume of Conversations. Will you accept this assignment?”

“I give you this first of many dictations on a Saturday. The ones to follow will be on Fridays.”
