Mother Mary of Saint Peter, OSB (born Adèle Garnier on 15th August, 1838, Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary; christened Marie-Adèle), was a French nun and foundress of the Adorers of the Sacred Heart of Jesus of Montmartre, of the Order of Saint Benedict.
Marie-Adèle had an ardent love for Christ. She was drawn to establish Perpetual Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament in order to express fully her desire to offer the Sacred Heart of Jesus an unceasing homage of love and reparation.
Early life[edit]
Marie-Adele Garnier was born in Grancey-le Chateau, Burgundy, France on 15th August 1838. She was the youngest of 4 girls (and a younger brother). Her mother, Denise Caiset, a devout Catholic died in 1844 when Adele was 6 years old..[1]. Her father, Nicholas Garnier did not practice his Catholic faith. He did, however, send the 4 girls to be educated in a Convent as requested by their mother before she died.
Adele was a governess from 1861 to 1865 when she felt called to the religious life and joined the Religious of the Sacred Heart at Conflans. It lasted for only two monthhs.[2]. She then became governess to the children of Madame de Croze in Aulne from 1868 until 1876. It was in Aulne in 1872 that after she had read an article from the Universe about the project of Montmartre, the site chosen to build a church in fulfilment of The National Vow (a vow that France was to make to the Sacred Heart to build a church as the permanent expression of the repentane and devotion of France to the Sacred Heart) that Adele heard clearly an inner voice telling her, "It is there that I need thee."[3]
Montmartre[edit]
Adele did not only hear those words but at the same time "saw an altar raised on high and sparkiling with lights, dominiated by the Blessed Sacrament exposed in the Monstrance." This vivid image and the words replayed in her mind constantly and her thoughts were always at Montmartre. However, Adele at this point still did not have a clear understanding of what her role was in all these manifestations.
It all became clear one evening in September 1874, that while reading the Life of St Margaret Mary Alaquoque it was suddenly made known to her by Jesus that it was "His WIll that His Heart present in the Holy Echarist, should be the object of the worship of Montmartre, and that the Blessed Sacrament should be exposed there night and dayt."[4]
