St. Gertrude the Great (16 November): Her Miracles, Visions, and Powerful Prayers

About this sermon

In this video, we honor St. Gertrude the Great—a 13th-century German Benedictine mystic whose extraordinary life continues to inspire countless souls today. Known as the only woman in the Church recognized with the title “The Great,” St. Gertrude was blessed with profound mystical graces, heavenly visions, and a deep intimacy with Jesus Christ. Born in 1256, St. Gertrude dedicated her life to prayer, penance, and contemplation. She received her first vision of Christ at age 26, and from then on became a powerful instrument of divine revelation. Her writings illuminate the love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, centuries before the devotion became widely known. Throughout her life, St. Gertrude was granted three extraordinary graces: • Mystical stigmata of Christ’s wounds on her heart • A beam of light from the Sacred Heart piercing her own heart at Holy Mass • A miraculous exchange of hearts with Jesus Himself Her devotion extended deeply to the Passion of Christ, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and especially the Holy Souls in Purgatory, for whom she offered countless prayers and communions. The famous St. Gertrude Prayer for the souls in purgatory has become one of the most beloved devotions among the faithful. This video also includes powerful prayers to St. Gertrude, including her petition for aid at life and death, and her prayer for the souls in purgatory. Whether you’re learning about St. Gertrude for the first time or deepening your devotion to her, may her intercession draw you closer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
