Don Elia. Living with the Heart of Jesus

Elia Bellebono’s entire life, first as a shoemaker and later as a priest, was devoted to serving the Lord, as a true apostle of the Sacred Heart! This volume - concise yet comprehensive - traces the stages of his extraordinary life, his work, and his mission. The first part of the book provides a biographical profile of Father Elia; the second presents his particular charisms (Jesus appears to him in visions and converses with him, sending him to priests and people as a minister of his mercy); the third gathers the testimonies of those who knew him and of those who received graces from him or through his intercession. The fourth part is devoted to the Sanctuary of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in Urbino and its consecration (which took place in September 2021): this, in fact, was the particular mission entrusted by Jesus to Elia, for the fulfillment of which he devoted his life. Finally, the volume concludes with a section dedicated to prayers to the Sacred Heart; this anthology also includes prayers by Father Elia.
