The prayers and devotions can be used at any time, but they may help us particularly when we pray at a shrine or church of the Prescious Blood, such as the Basilica in Bruges, or on a Friday when we always commemorate the Passion, or during July, the month of the Prescious Blood, or as part of our preparation for Mass and Holy Communion (whether spiritual or sacramental), or in thanksgiving afterwards. They might be helpful, too, in preparing for the sacrament of reconciliation.
