About the devotion:

This medal was cast by Mother Maria Pierina who recieved many revelations related to the devotion to the Holy Face.  In Our Lords Words to her:  “By My Holy Face you will obtain the conversion of numberless sinners. Nothing that you ask in making this offering will be refused you.  According to the care you take in making reparation to My Face, disfigured by blasphemers, I will take care of your soul, which has been disfigured by sin. I will reprint on it My Image and render it as beautiful as it was on leaving the Baptismal Font.  I promise personal and spiritual protection to all who venerate this medal.”

One side of the medal has the image of the Holy Shroud of Turin and the words of Psalm 66:2, “Illumina Domine Vultum Tuum super nos” (May the light of your Face, O Lord, shine upon us).  The reverse of the medal depicts the Blessed Sacrament, with the letters IHS and “Mane nobiscum Domine” (Stay with us O Lord). The initials I.O.G.D. (or A.M.D.G.) in Latin mean: IN OMNIBUS GLORIFICATUR DEUS, (In all things may God be glorified or to the greater glory of God).
 
According to the Holy Face Association: “The medal should be worn around the neck.  Whoever wears this medal and, if possible, pays a weekly visit to the Blessed Sacrament on Tuesday in a spirit of reparation for the outrages received by the Holy Face of our Blessed Savior during His passion and those bestowed on Him every day in the Sacrament of His Divine Love, will be granted the gift of a strong faith and the grace to fly to its defense, conquering, if need be, all interior and exterior difficulties.  Moreover, they are promised a happy death with special assistance from Christ Himself.”
