August 2, 2026, was the unofficial feast day of God the Father, the first Sunday in August, as the Heavenly Father requested in this little book on page 34 under the section for the Pope.

The priest (forced into retirement by the St. Louis* archdiocese) who said our Mass that day, in an officially closed but perfectly functional church also in St. Louis compared this feast to that of Corpus Christi during the long years it was celebrated by the laity before its official approval by the Church. It was a beautiful Mass, well attended by a devout congregation.

As mentioned above, the request for this Mass was one of the things God the Father passed on to the seer, Eugenia Elisabetta Ravasio, credited as the author of this book, but these are not her words. Here we read the words recorded by her from her visions of God the Father in 1932. He dictated the Message to her in Latin, a language completely unknown to her. Mother Eugenia was Mother General of the Missionary Sisters of Our Lady of the Apostles during the time of the visions as well as the ten years her private revelation (the only one ever from God the Father) underwent the most rigorous evaluation and was deemed not only authentic, but in the words of her bishop,
"I deem it proper to let her continue her work. I believe that the hand of God is in all this. After ten years of research, reflection and prayer, I bless the Father for having deigned to choose my diocese as the place for such touching manifestations of His love."
Alexandre Caillot
Bishop of Grenoble

Just the week before I first heard of Mother Eugenia through Fr. Mark Goring, CC, although I had encountered the prayer to God the Father previously and found it so beautiful I prayed it for a long time until I misplaced the card. It has been one of those God-incidents which feels like I am called to pay attention, even more that I dare not ignore it.

Fortunately, it is a book which speaks to my heart. God is truly a Father, our Father, as Jesus told us about many times in Sacred Scripture. We are to love, honor and trust Him as He loves us beyond our imaginings. The book is divided in three parts: 1) a short biography of Mother Eugenia; 2) Bishop Caillot's testimony; and 3) the Father's Message. In the last part, the Father's Message, the Father's words are interspersed with Mother Eugenia's descriptions of what she saw.

The Message began on July 1, 1932, the Feast of the Precious Blood of Our LORD Jesus Christ. There were two Messages; Part II began on 12 August 1932. The language the Father uses will be familiar to mystics and children. Those looking for quick answers or clear explanations to the mysteries of life, will be disappointed.

Eventually I can see this as being a good book to take to Adoration, but for now, I just want it close so I can reach for it any time I have a free moment.

*I am currently in St. Louis for a couple weeks helping with my nearly 94-year-old father while my other sister is on vacation with her husband.

Note: I have read this at least once a year over the last several years. As part of Father Mark Goring’s Saint Mark’s School of Reading I have two different eBook editions listed above. Both were revised and enhanced this year, and are now available with new covers.

Review of this edition 2026:

I have read this book as part of Father Mark Goring’s School of Reading, it is the fourth book that I have read that he has highlighted as his book of the month. Father Mark sent out a PDF but I went looking to an eBook version. I did find them on Kindle and Kobo but upon reading the PDF discovered that there should not be. The description of this edition states:

“In "The Father Speaks to His Children," Eugenia Elisabetta Ravasio crafts a poignant reflection on the complexities of familial relationships, intertwining personal narrative with philosophical discourse. Drawing on a blend of lyrical prose and introspective dialogue, Ravasio navigates the nuanced interplay between parental expectations and the intrinsic desire for independence. The book is set against a backdrop of contemporary family dynamics, using metaphor and allegory to evoke the emotional resonance of its central themes, making it a notable contribution to modern literary conversations about parenthood and identity. Eugenia Elisabetta Ravasio, a scholar and writer whose expertise lies in developmental psychology and family studies, brings a wealth of knowledge and personal experience to her work. Her passion for exploring human connections is rooted in her academic background, which informs both her expressive style and the psychological depth of her characters. This book emerges from her desire to bridge the gap between theoretical understanding and the lived experiences of familial love, conflict, and resolution. "The Father Speaks to His Children" is a must-read for anyone intrigued by the intricate tapestry of family ties. Ravasio offers readers a chance to reflect on their own relationships, inviting empathy and understanding through her insightful prose. This book is not just a narrative; it is a journey into the heart of what it means to be a part of a family.

In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience:

- Hand‐picked Memorable Quotes shine a spotlight on moments of literary brilliance.
- Interactive footnotes clarify unusual references, historical allusions, and archaic phrases for an effortless, more informed read.”

You can find a PDF version online, if you search the author and title. This edition does not have the Imprimatur that was present in other editions I have read.

The chapters in this volume are:

Preface
Short Biography of Mother Eugenia Elisabette Ravasio
Testimony of the Right Reverend A. Caillot
The Father´s Message
The Father´s Message 2 (To the Pope)
The Father´s Message 3 (To The Bishop)
The Father´s Message 4
Prayer of Mother Eugenia

This is a fascinating little read. It is only 37 pages in length from title page to a summary by P. Andrea D’Ascanio OFM. It is an easy volume to read and yet it contains a significant amount of important material. I worked my way through this over a few days and over several sittings. Pausing at the end of each message. Taking time to think, reflect and pray. The work concludes with these words:

““God is my Father!” This cry is being heard ever more frequently in today’s world: people are coming to recognize that God is indeed their Father.

Consequently, we feel it our duty to publish a message, given to the world by God the Father through one of His creatures who loved Him so much, Sister Eugenia Elisabetta Ravasio, and recognized as valid by the Church.

We consider it appropriate to introduce this work by quoting the testimony of a former Bishop of Grenoble, the Right Reverend Alexandre Caillot. In 1935 he set up a board of experts, drawn from various parts of France, to conduct a diocesan enquiry, which lasted ten years.

Its members included the Bishop of Grenoble’s Vicar General, Mgr Guerry, theologian; the Jesuit brothers, Fathers Albert and Auguste Valencin-Amons, who ranked among the foremost authorities in the field of philosophy and theology and were expert in evaluating such cases; and two doctors of medicine, one of whom was a psychiatrist.

We are sure that this message will help people to understand the deep tenderness the Father has for each one of us, and we hope that it will receive the widest possible circulation.””

This whole final section is missing from the digital version. The conclusion by Alexandre Caillot at the time of the revelation states:

“Following the dictates of my soul and my conscience, and with the keenest sense of my responsibility to the Church, I declare that supernatural and divine intervention seems to me the only logical and satisfactory explanation of the facts.

Isolated from all the surrounding features of the case, this essential fact seems to me to be noble, lofty and supernaturally rich: that a humble nun has called souls to true devotion to the Father, such as Jesus taught and the Church has enshrined in its liturgy. There is nothing alarming in this, only something that is very simple and in accordance with solid doctrine.

The miraculous facts which accompany this message could be separated from the main event and its value would still be preserved in its entirety. For doctrinal reasons, the Church will declare whether the idea of a special feast can be considered separately from this particular case involving the sister.

I believe that the fundamental proof of the authenticity of the nun’s mission is shown by the way in which she puts into practice in her life the beautiful doctrine which she was apparently destined to remind us of.

I deem it proper to let her continue her work. I believe that the hand of God is in all this. After ten years of research, reflection and prayer, I bless the Father for having deigned to choose my diocese as the place for such touching manifestations of His love.”

I highlighted several passages while reading this edition. Some of them are:

““God is my Father[ 1q]!” This cry is being heard ever more frequently in today’s world: people are coming to recognize that God is indeed their Father. Consequently, we feel it our duty to publish a message, given to the world by God the Father through one of His creatures who loved Him so much, Sister Eugenia Elisabetta Ravasio, and recognized as valid by the Church."

"She received only an elementary education[ 5q]. After a few years working in a factory, she entered the Congregation of Our Lady of the Apostles at the age of 20 years. It was here that her great charismatic personality developed, leading to her election as Mother General of the Congregation at the age of only 25."

"It was she who discovered the first medicine for the cure of leprosy, extracting it from the seed of a tropical plant. This medicine was later studied and developed further at the Pasteur Institute[ 8] in Paris."

"Her superiors, perplexed by the extraordinary nature of the events which occurred during her novitiate, had not wanted to let her stay on in the convent. After some hesitation, they were forced to abandon their plan when faced with the nun’s exemplary conduct."

"She sees every situation clearly and correctly, as if it were a matter of conscience. Her instructions are straight-forward, precise and very practical. She knows each of her 1400 daughters personally, and also their attitudes and their virtues; hence she is able to select those who are most qualified to perform various tasks. She also has an accurate personal knowledge of her Congregation’s needs and resources. She knows the situation in every house and has visited all her missions."

"I find it particularly interesting to note that Mother Eugenia seems to possess a spirit of decisiveness, a sense of reality and a creative will. In six years she has founded 67 institutes and has been able to introduce very useful improvements in her Congregation."

"If I single out her qualities of intelligence, judgment and will, and her powers of administration, it is because they seem to me to rule out definitively all the hypotheses about hallucinations, illusions, spiritism, hysteria or delirium. These were examined during the enquiry but proved incapable of giving a satisfactory explanation of the facts."

"If it is supremely right to show devotion to the Son and the Holy Spirit because of their external manifestations, would it not be right and proper to give thanks to God the Father, as the Prefaces of the Mass require, for the gift He sent us, His Son?"

"The real object of this special feast thus becomes plain: to honour the Father, to thank Him, to praise Him for having given us His Son; in a word, as the message states, as the Author of our Redemption; to thank Him Who loved the world so much that He gave His only-begotten Son, so that all men might be brought together in the Mystical Body of Christ and, together with this Son, become His children."

"After ten years of research, reflection and prayer, I bless the Father for having deigned to choose my diocese as the place for such touching manifestations of His love."

"The painter delights in contemplating the picture he has painted. In the same way, it is My pleasure and delight to come among men, the masterpiece of My creation! Time presses. I wish men to know as soon as possible that I love them and that I feel the greatest happiness in being with them and talking with them, like a father with his children."

"And the greatest means of securing your salvation, despite your falls, is the Cross, My Son’s Blood poured out upon you every moment, if you so wish, both in the Sacrament of Penance and in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass."

"Even if your sins were as repulsive as mud, your confidence and your love will make Me forget them, so you will not be judged! I am just, it is true, but love pays for everything!"

"Raise yourselves to the dignity of children of God and learn how to respect your own greatness. I will then be your Father more than ever, the most lovable and merciful of fathers."

"It is in this intimacy that the outpouring of My love makes My holiness spread into your souls. I fill you with My love, then you have only to ask Me for the virtues and perfection you need and you can be sure that in those moments when God is reposing in His creatures, nothing will be refused you.”

This booklet is an important message in this day and age. For generations raised without fathers, absentee fathers, or fathers focused on work and their own lives. We need the Father in heaven in our lives. For those in parishes with unfatherly priests. …

There appears to be a few variations of this volume available. By different publishers and offered online from different sources. The edition father Mark made available was the 2005 first pdf edition. I have obtained 2 other versions and plan to read them as well, this is one of them. It is an excellent volume and a book I highly recommend!

I have read this book as part of Father Mark Goring’s School of Reading, it is the fourth book that I have read that he has highlighted as his book of the month. Father Mark sent out a PDF but I went looking to an eBook version. I did find them on Kindle and Kobo but upon reading the PDF discovered that there should not be. The description of this edition states:

“The Father Speaks to His Children is a compact yet theologically resonant work of Catholic spirituality, presenting a series of messages attributed to God the Father and addressed to humanity with striking tenderness and urgency. Its style is devotional rather than systematic: simple, direct, repetitive in the manner of prayer, yet rich in biblical echoes of divine paternity, mercy, and reconciliation. Situated within the tradition of modern Catholic private revelation, the book seeks to renew attention to the Father's personal love, not as abstraction, but as the heart of Christian life. Eugenia Elisabetta Ravasio, known as Mother Eugenia, was an Italian religious sister and missionary whose life combined contemplative devotion with practical service. Her experience in religious leadership, her concern for the poor and the sick, and her missionary formation help explain the book's universal tone: it addresses believers, doubters, clergy, and nations alike, urging a return to filial trust in God. This book is recommended to readers of Catholic mysticism, devotional theology, and spiritual renewal. It will especially appeal to those seeking a brief but profound meditation on divine fatherhood, mercy, and the intimacy of prayer.

This enriched edition has been carefully crafted to add value to your reading experience.

“We are sure that this message will help people to understand the deep tenderness the Father has for each one of us, and we hope that it will receive the widest possible circulation.”

“Quite apart from her spiritual qualities, her work in the social field alone would suffice to ensure her a place in history. In twelve years of missionary activity she opened over 70 centres-each with infirmary, school and church-in the remotest spots of Africa, Asia and Europe.”

“Her most important legacy to us is the Message of the Father (“ The Father speaks to His children”), the only private revelation made personally by God the Father and recognized as authentic by the Church after ten years of the most rigorous examination.”

“A number of circumstances also showed the nun to be capable of practising virtue to a heroic degree. According to the theologians, an especially striking feature was her obedience during Father Auguste Valencin’s enquiry in June 1934, and her humility on the sad day of 20 December 1934.”

“If I single out her qualities of intelligence, judgment and will, and her powers of administration, it is because they seem to me to rule out definitively all the hypotheses about hallucinations, illusions, spiritism, hysteria or delirium. These were examined during the enquiry but proved incapable of giving a satisfactory explanation of the facts.”

“The works of an imaginary visionary are poor, barren and inconsistent. However, the message that Mother Eugenia says the Father entrusted to her is fertile. There is a harmonious interaction of two different characters which tends to confirm its authenticity.”

“1) I am coming to banish the excessive fear that My creatures have of Me, and to show them that My joy lies in being known and loved by My children, that is, by all mankind, present and future.
2) I am coming to bring hope to men and nations. How many have long since lost it! This hope will make them live in peace and security, working for their salvation.
3) I am coming to make Myself known just as I am, so that men’s trust may increase together with their love for Me, their Father. I have but one concern: to watch over all men and love them as My children.”

“Of course, I can understand My children’s weaknesses! Because of this, I asked My Son to give them the means to get up again after they have fallen. These means will help them to purify themselves from their sins, so that they may still be the children of My love. They are, chiefly, the seven Sacraments. And the greatest means of securing your salvation, despite your falls, is the Cross, My Son’s Blood poured out upon you every moment, if you so wish, both in the Sacrament of Penance and in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.”

“I come among you in two ways: the Cross and the Eucharist! The Cross is My way of coming down among My children, since it is through it that I caused My Son to redeem you. And for you, the Cross is the way to ascend to My Son, and from My Son to Me.”

“If you love Me and call Me by the sweet name of Father, you will begin to live, here and now, in the love and the trust which will make you happy in eternity and which you will sing in heaven in the company of the elect.”

““We have a Father who is infinitely good, infinitely rich and greatly merciful. He thinks about us and is close to us. He looks after us, supports us. He will give us everything we need if we ask Him.”

“My children, do you want to live your life on earth peacefully and joyfully? Come and cast yourselves into this immense ocean and remain in it for ever. As you work and live your normal life, this life will be sanctified through charity.”

“I am your Father; I will help you in your efforts and your work. I will sustain you always and make you enjoy, already here below, peace and joy of soul, making your ministry and your zealous works bear fruit. This is an inestimable gift, since the soul which is peaceful and joyful already has a foretaste of heaven while awaiting its eternal reward.”

“Believe Me, you who are listening to Me as you read these words: if all men who are far from our Catholic Church heard people talking about this Father Who loves them, Who is their Creator and their God, about this Father Who desires to give them eternal life, then many of these men, even the most obstinate ones, would come to this Father of Whom you had spoken to them.”

“Yes, you are My children and you must tell Me that I am your Father. But trust in Me as children do, because without this trust you will never be truly free.”

“I will show Myself as a Father to those who suffer most on earth, the poor lepers. I will show Myself to be the Father of all those who are abandoned, the outcasts of every human society. I will show Myself as a Father to the afflicted, the sick, and above all, to those who are in agony. I will show Myself as a Father to all families, to orphans, widows, prisoners, workers and the young. I will show Myself as the Father of kings, the Father of their nations.”

This booklet is an important message in this day and age. For generations raised without fathers, absentee fathers, or fathers focused on work and their own lives. We need the Father in heaven in our lives. For those in parishes with unfatherly priests. …

Questo libro è uno dei più belli che abbia avuto il piacere di leggere, e mi fa amare ancora di più il padre. Mi ci sono voluti diversi giorni per leggerlo, non perché fosse complesso, ma perché volevo assimilare ogni parola detta dal padre nella mia anima, per essere riempita del suo amore.
E oggi desidero ardentemente conoscerlo di più, amarlo di più.
Un libro molto consigliato, soprattutto per le anime che si sentono orfane in questo mondo. Sappiate che qui, nella nostra chiesa cattolica, c'è un padre che vi ha creati, che vi ama veramente, e che vuole solo essere amato da tutti i suoi figli.

I also read this for Fr Mark's school of reading. How do you rate a revelation to a Catholic nun from God the Father?
Per the reading God is, indeed, a kind and loving Father. One merely needs to spend time with him in prayer or simple conversation to understand.
I found it interesting that these are directly from God, not Jesus or Mary , as it usually seems.
I enjoyed the read and found it comforting.

God Speaks to His Children

This book is for all children of God. It is for catholic Christians. It is for our separated brothers and sisters. It is for Muslims who do not believe that Jesus is the Son of God.

Love God, your Father. Become Catholic. Go to Mass. Say the Our Father. Pray the Rosary. Receive the Eucharist after Baptism.
