Those who come to visit the Church of Saint Paul in Rome can still observe the Miraculous Crucifix that has been placed on top of the Tabernacle, in the Chapel of the Blessed Sacrament.

For a long time, Saint Brigid had come to desire to know how many lashes Our beloved Lord had received during his Passion. One day she presented Jesus Christ to her, saying:
“I received about 5,480 lashes on My Body; which are 5,475 lashes, so we can remember that there were 60 executioners who flogged him, who took turns every certain hour. Pilate had even promised to release him after the punishment and that the Jews bribed the executioners so that he would be killed, however, Jesus did not die and accordingly the executioners continued to whip him and whip him.

Some Questions
Some people tend to ask certain questions regarding these prayers to Saint Brigid, which we can mention the following:
1.- Can I perhaps wait certain or several years until the end of my life to start doing them and in that way be able to avoid the year in which they have to be done?
- The answer is that no, you cannot do this, you simply have to do it from now on.
2.- Can I expect to be affected by a certain type of terminal illness, and then start praying and thus avoid having to do it all year?
- The answer is that no, you cannot do this, you simply have to do it from now on.
3.- If by chance you forget for some reason to do these prayers on one day and it is after midnight, is that day considered lost?
- The answer is that the deadline can be extended until the next day, before dawn occurs, which is valid for the previous day. Logically, you have to pray again during that day for the corresponding day. This type of extension can be used as many times as it is required.
4.- What are the “Justified Causes”?
- By simply forgetting 1 or 2 days, perhaps due to a certain type of family or even work event.
