The Rev. Father Lukas Etlin, O.S.B., was born in 1864 at Sarnen, Switzerland. While studying at Engelberg College, he responded to a call to the religious life and became a Benedictine monk in 1886. Upon the completion of his novitiate, he subsequently received Holy Orders in 1891. A year later, he began serving as chaplain of the Benedictine Nuns of Clyde, Missouri, and also founded a program called Caritas, which brought relief to those impoverished during the First World War. Besides releasing a considerable amount of pamphlets, including The Holy Eucharist: Our All, Father Etlin also published the Tabernacle and Purgatory periodical. He died in 1927 from an automobile accident, clutching his Rosaries.

“The Sacred Heart of Jesus is the boundless ocean of God's love, of God's mercy, of God's tender compassion for poor sinners. The Sacred Heart of Jesus contains remedies for all our wants, and It can and will supply all our needs for time and eternity. In our troubles, in our sorrows, in our wants, let us not forget to go to that place where alone we can find peace, consolation and help - the Sacred Heart of Jesus!”
Lukas Etlin, Devotion to the Sacred Heart

“The sufferings and death of our Divine Redeemer on the Cross did not satisfy the love of His Sacred Heart. When about to ascend to His Heavenly Father, His infinite power and wisdom invented a means by which He might be in Heaven with His Father and at the same time remain on earth with His beloved children. The Blessed Sacrament is this Divine invention. it was the last and greatest expression of the burning love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus before His Passion. It was His last legacy to us in fulfillment of His promise not to leave us orphans.”
Lukas Etlin, Devotion to the Sacred Heart

“The Sacrifice of the Mass, like that of the Cross, is of infinite worth and infinite efficacy. It increases Sanctifying Grace in the just, expiates venial sins and temporal punishment of sin and gives strength to do what is good. For sinners, the Sacrifice of the Mass effects the grace of contrition and conversion, so that in the Sacrament of Penance (Confession), they may again become reconciled with God. Through the Sacrifice of the Mass we also obtain the protection of God in temporal dangers and aid in afflictions.”
