I’ve been trying to get more information on the prayers of St. Bridget and how Jesus promised certain spiritual graces.

I’ve also read that there is some controversy because some people do not believe these promises to be real.

Can someone more knowledgeable perhaps provide some information about the authenticity about the promises (e.g., attaining first degree of perfection)?
 
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

†

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Google Revelations of St. Brigette and you will find lots of information. There are a number of websites devoted to the study of her lifetime, her teachings and revelations.

If your into visions and locutions, you might try our blessed Mother’s approved appearences.

At Fatima she recommended the rosary and the brown scapular in 1913 with promises.

In 1830 she designed the miraculous medal with the promise of great and abundant graces if used and worn properly.

In 1840 she designed the green scapular with the promise of increasing the faith and a peaceful death.

These are more recent and documented quite well and are very reliable and they come from the queen of heaven.

St. Bridget, tho a great saint, especially by the Irish, lived in the 6th century. We know the bible had embellishments made to it by those who copied it. These had to be removed.
How many embellishments have been made to her promises? Who knows. That’s just my opinion.

But Mary’s gifts to us happened only about 1 1/2 century ago. We do have good documentation for them.

Here are the 15 prayers of St. Bridget. I wonder if maybe that is what you want. The only 15 promises I am familiar with are the 15 promises of the rosary.

May God bless and keep you. May God’s face shine on you. May God be kind to you and give you peace.
 
Wow. If those are true, we could probably replace the catholic church with these and be better off. I don’t know about all that. My gut instinct is skeptical. IMO people get carried away sometimes and it is not always possible to know what is reality from stretching a point.

St. Bridget was a great saint, but then we still need to be cautious when looking at heaps and heaps of high hopes. I may have said this poorly, but you understand. I wouldn’t bet my mortgage on it.

Just some thoughts.
