Leo Dupont, the man who won the battle for the Holy Face devotion.

".....It was not until Leo was on his deathbed that he had the consolation of seeing the interdict lifted by the newly appointed archbishop. "The most beautiful work under the sun" truly was going to be established and it was Leo Dupont, the Holy Man of Tours, who had kept the devotion alive in his humble parlor on Rue St. Etienne."
"From the moment we awake in the morning, let us pray continually in the words of holy David: Turn away my eyes, that they may not behold vanity"
St Alphonsus

"I will set my face against you, and you shall fall down before your enemies, and shall be made subject to them that hate you, you shall flee when no man pursueth you"
Leviticus 26:17

"Behold, O God our protector : and look upon the face of Thy Christ" (Ps. 79:20) Here is devotion to the face of Jesus Christ as prophesized by David."
Fr. Lawrence Daniel Carney III
