Blessed Melanie Calvat, messenger of the Virgin Mary whom she had seen crying at La Salette, said of the future Apostles: “It is the desire of God and the Mother of Mercies that the Order should begin and stand as a rampart before the nearly general APOSTASY”. Since the purpose of the Apostles of Infinite Love is the preservation of the Deposit of Faith, our most important works are prayer and sacrifice. In many places our chapels are open to the public: we offer traditional religious services, religious instruction in all its forms and the administration of the sacraments. Here is a quick overview of some of our Canadian centres:
