In the Roman Catholic tradition, an Act of Reparation is a prayer or devotion with the intent to repair the "sins of others", e.g. for the repair of the sin of blasphemy, the sufferings of Jesus Christ or as Acts of Reparation to the Virgin Mary.〔Acts of Reparation http://catholicism.about.com/od/prayers/qt/Reparation_HN.htm〕 These prayers are not a petition for a living or deceased beneficiary, but aim to repair sins. Pope Pius XI wrote, in ''Miserentissimus Redemptor'', that based on the premise that a "creature's love should be given in return for the love of the Creator," reparation is a creature's compensation to the Creator for "neglect by forgetfulness or violat by offense". Pope John Paul II wrote that for some people reparation is "a daily life of prayer (') and the unceasing effort (') to stand beside the endless crosses on which the Son of God continues to be crucified." ==Prayers of reparation== A number of prayers such as the ''Act of Reparation to the Virgin Mary'' appeared in the ''Raccolta'', a collection of Catholic prayers and good works with attached indulgences. The ''Raccolta'' included a number of diverse prayers for reparation.〔Joseph P. Christopher et al., 2003 ''The Raccolta'', St Athanasius Press ISBN 978-0-9706526-6-9〕 The ''Raccolta'' was deprecated in 1968. *the Rosary of the Holy Wounds (which does not include the usual rosary mysteries) focuses on specific redemptive aspects of Christ's suffering in Calvary, with emphasis on the souls in purgatory.〔Michael Freze, 1993, ''Voices, Visions, and Apparitions'', OSV Publishing ISBN 0-87973-454-X〕 *the ''Act of Reparation to Jesus Christ'' and for the reparation of blasphemy is The Golden Arrow Holy Face Devotion (Prayer) first introduced by Sister Marie of St Peter in 1844. This devotion (started by Sister Marie and then promoted by the Venerable Leo Dupont) was approved by Pope Leo XIII in 1885.〔Dorothy Scallan. The Holy Man of Tours. (1990) ISBN 0-89555-390-2〕 *the ''Act of Reparation to The Holy Trinity'' is based on the messages of Our Lady of Fatima and is usually called the ''Angel Prayer''.〔Our Lady of Fatima http://www.fatima.org/〕〔Story of Fatima http://www.salvemariaregina.info/SalveMariaRegina/SMR-104.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Acts of reparation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
