EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite souvenir card commemorates the First Communion of Marguerite Tettart, held at the magnificent Church of St. John the Baptist in Dunkirk, France on the 24th of April, 1913. The ornate design, reminiscent of the Art Nouveau style, showcases a beautiful portrait of the Virgin Mary, her visage radiating serenity and grace. The quotation inscribed below, attributed to Saint Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort, a renowned French Roman Catholic priest and Confessor, adds a profound layer of spiritual significance to this devotional keepsake. The quote reads, "True devotion to the Blessed Virgin consists in contemplating her as the Mother of God, in adoring her as the Queen of heaven, in loving her as our Mother, and in consecrating ourselves entirely to her." This poignant message serves as a reminder of the deep connection between Mary and her children, and the importance of devotion and consecration to her care. This souvenir card is not only a cherished memory of Marguerite's First Communion, but also a testament to the enduring faith and spirituality of the time.
