Dear Jesus on the Cross,
I know that in a few days Easter will come―that is the most beautiful feast that You have given us, O Jesus, and the day upon which You rose and went into Heaven to the right of Your Father, who is God. Dear Jesus, make me heal soon [so that] at least I can go to adore You in the Holy Sepulcher. Dear Jesus, I know that in a few days I will go to Confession. Dear Jesus, I want to receive You in the Holy Eucharist very soon. Dear Jesus, I want to be always enclosed in Your heart. I want to be with You always.
Dear Jesus, make lots of sinners convert, especially those in Spain.
Dear Jesus, I send You many greetings and kisses from Your Antonietta.
Antonietta and Jesus.
