Thanksgiving Day
Blessed Mother says: "Praise be to Jesus."
"Today, I am thankful for all the graces God continues to pour into the world through these apparitions and other sites of His Predilection that He allows around the world. I am thankful for the Tradition of Faith that the God of your next breath is preserving and uniting in My Immaculate Heart. I am thankful for the many healings and conversions that continue to result as the good fruit of this Mission's perseverance in the face of so much opposition."
"This Mission opposes the course of your country's choosing, for while today is a day of Thanksgiving, the false god of consumerism has crept in. Instead of thanking God for His Abundant Provision upon families, families have decided to share the day with consumerism. Instead of taking time to count their blessings, many of My children only take account of their material needs and wants."
"Your country, which was once founded on religious freedom, is now allowing such freedoms to slip away. God's Will is no longer a consideration - only the sinful rights of man."
"So today, as I give thanks for God's Provision, I also pray for a spiritual awakening of your nation, that it may continue to say with sincerity that it is 'Under God'. Please pray with Me."

Tuesday, October 22, 2013 Blessed Pope John Paul II 1920-2005
From Saint of the Day. AmericanCatholic.org
“Open wide the doors to Christ,” urged John Paul II during the homily at the Mass when he was installed as pope in 1978.
Born in Wadowice, Poland, Karol Jozef Wojtyla had lost his mother, father and older brother before his 21st birthday. Karol’s promising academic career at Krakow’s Jagiellonian University was cut short by the outbreak of World War II. While working in a quarry and a chemical factory, he enrolled in an “underground” seminary in Kraków. Ordained in 1946, he was immediately sent to Rome where he earned a doctorate in theology.
Back in Poland, a short assignment as assistant pastor in a rural parish preceded his very fruitful chaplaincy for university students. Soon he earned a doctorate in philosophy and began teaching that subject at Poland’s University of Lublin.
Communist officials allowed him to be appointed auxiliary bishop of Krakow in 1958, considering him a relatively harmless intellectual. They could not have been more wrong!
He attended all four sessions of Vatican II and contributed especially to its Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World. Appointed as archbishop of Krakow in 1964, he was named a cardinal three years later.
Elected pope in October 1978, he took the name of his short-lived, immediate predecessor. Pope John Paul II was the first non-Italian pope in 455 years. In time, he made pastoral visits to 124 countries, including several with small Christian populations.
He promoted ecumenical and interfaith initiatives, especially the 1986 Day of Prayer for World Peace in Assisi. He visited Rome’s Main Synagogue and the Western Wall in Jerusalem; he also established diplomatic relations between the Holy See and Israel. He improved Catholic-Muslim relations and in 2001 visited a mosque in Damascus, Syria.
The Great Jubilee of the Year 2000, a key event in John Paul’s ministry, was marked by special celebrations in Rome and elsewhere for Catholics and other Christians. Relations with the Orthodox Churches improved considerably during his ministry as pope.
“Christ is the center of the universe and of human history” was the opening line of his 1979 encyclical, Redeemer of the Human Race. In 1995, he described himself to the United Nations General Assembly as “a witness to hope.”
His 1979 visit to Poland encouraged the growth of the Solidarity movement there and the collapse of communism in central and eastern Europe 10 years later. He began World Youth Day and traveled to several countries for those celebrations. He very much wanted to visit China and the Soviet Union but the governments in those countries prevented that.
One of the most well-remembered photos of his pontificate was his one-on-one conversation in 1983 with Mehmet Ali Agca, who had attempted to assassinate him two years earlier.
In his 27 years of papal ministry, John Paul wrote 14 encyclicals and five books, canonized 482 saints and beatified 1,338 people.
In the last years of his life, he suffered from Parkinson’s disease and was forced to cut back on some of his activities.
Pope Benedict XVI beatified John Paul II on May 1, 2011, Divine Mercy Sunday.

Comment:
Before John Paul’s funeral Mass in St. Peter’s Square, hundreds of thousands of people had waited patiently for a brief moment to pray before his body, which lay in state inside St. Peter’s for several days. The media coverage of his funeral was unprecedented.
Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, then dean of the College of Cardinals and later Pope Benedict XVI, presided at the funeral Mass and concluded his homily by saying: “None of us can ever forget how, in that last Easter Sunday of his life, the Holy Father, marked by suffering, came once more to the window of the Apostolic Palace and one last time gave his blessing urbi et orbi [‘to the city and to the world’].
“We can be sure that our beloved pope is standing today at the window of the Father’s house, that sees us and blesses us. Yes, bless us, Holy Father. We entrust your dear soul to the Mother of God, your Mother, who guided you each day and who will guide you now to the glory of her Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.”

In his 1999 Letter to the Elderly, Pope John Paul II wrote: “Grant, O Lord of life,...when the moment of our definitive ‘passage’ comes, that we may face it with serenity, without regret for what we shall leave behind. For in meeting you, after having sought you for so long, we shall find once more every authentic good which we have known here on earth, in the company of all those who have gone before us marked with the sign of faith and hope....Amen.”

"Dear children; I love you with a motherly love and with a motherly patience I wait for your love and unity. I pray that you may be a community of God's children, of my children. I pray that as a community you may joyfully come back to life in the faith and in the love of my Son. My children, I am gathering you as my apostles and am teaching you how to bring others to come to know the love of my Son; how to bring to them the Good News, which is my Son. Give me your open, purified hearts and I will fill them with the love for my Son. His love will give meaning to your life and I will walk with you. I will be with you until the meeting with the Heavenly Father. My children, it is those who walk towards the Heavenly Father with love and faith who will be saved. Do not be afraid. I am with you. Put your trust in your shepherds as my Son trusted when He chose them, and pray that they may have the strength and the love to lead you. Thank you."

"Dear children; I love you all. All of you, all of my children,
all of you are in my heart. All of you have my motherly love and I
desire to lead all of you to come to know God's joy. This is why I am
calling you. I need humble apostles who, with an open heart, will accept
the Word of God and help others to comprehend the meaning of their life
along side God's word. To be able to do this, my children, through
prayer and fasting you must learn to listen with the heart and to learn
to keep submitting yourselves. You must learn to keep rejecting
everything that distances you from God's word and to yearn only for that
which draws you closer to it. Do not be afraid. I am here. You are not
alone. I am imploring the Holy Spirit to renew and strengthen you. I am
imploring the Holy Spirit that, as you help others, you too may be
healed. I am imploring Him that, through Him, you may be God's children
and my apostles."
Then, according to Mirjana, Our Lady said the following with great concern:
"For the sake of Jesus, for the sake of my Son, love those whom He has called and long for the blessing only from the hands which He has consecrated. Do not permit evil to come to reign. Anew I repeat – only along side your shepherds will my heart triumph. Do not permit evil to separate you from your shepherds. Thank you."

love - the grain that by dying will give birth a hundredfold. I do not
desire for you, dear children, to have to repent for everything that you

with enthusiasm say: 'I want to be a sign to others.' Thank you for

Dear children; If only you would open your hearts to me with
complete trust, you would comprehend everything. You would comprehend
with how much love I am calling you; with how much love I desire to
change you, to make you happy; with how much love I desire to make you
followers of my Son and give you peace in the fullness of my Son. You
would comprehend the immeasurable greatness of my motherly love. That is
why, my children, pray because through prayer your faith grows and love
is born, the love along which even the cross is not unendurable because
you do not carry it alone. In union with my Son you glorify the name of
the Heavenly Father. Pray, pray for the gift of love, because love is
the only truth: it forgives everything, it serves everyone and it sees a
brother in everyone. My children, my apostles, great is the trust that
the Heavenly Father has given you through me, His handmaid, to help
those who do not know Him, that they may reconcile with Him and follow
Him. That is why I am teaching you love, because only if you have love
will you be able to respond to Him. Again I am calling you to love your
shepherds and to pray that, at this difficult time, the name of my Son
may be glorified under their guidance. Thank you.

"Dear children, in this restless time, anew I am calling you to set out after my Son - to follow Him. I know of the pain, suffering and difficulties, but in my Son you will find rest; in Him you will find peace and salvation. My children, do not forget that my Son redeemed you by His Cross and enabled you, anew, to be children of God; to be able to, anew, call the Heavenly Father, "Father". To be worthy of the Father, love and forgive, because your Father is love and forgiveness. Pray and fast, because that is the way to your purification, it is the way of coming to know and becoming cognizant of the Heavenly Father. When you become cognizant of the Father, you will comprehend that He is all you need. I, as a mother, desire my children to be in a community of one single people where the Word of God is listened to and carried out.* Therefore, my children, set out after my Son. Be one with Him. Be God's children. Love your shepherds as my Son loved them when He called them to serve you. Thank you."
According to Mirjana, when Our Lady said "I, as a mother, desire my children to be in a community of one single people where the Word of God is listened to and carried out," she was speaking resolutely and with emphasis.

"Dear children; I am calling you to be one with my Son in spirit. I am calling you, through prayer, and the Holy Mass when my Son unites Himself with you in a special way, to try to be like Him; that, like Him, you may always be ready to carry out God's will and not seek the fulfillment of your own. Because, my children, it is according to God's will that you are and that you exist, and without God's will you are nothing. As a mother I am asking you to speak about the glory of God with your life, because in that way you will also glorify yourself in accordance to His will. Show humility and love for your neighbour to everyone. Through such humility and love, my Son saved you and opened the way for you to the Heavenly Father. I implore you to keep opening the way to the Heavenly Father for all those who have not come to know Him and have not opened their hearts to His love. By your life, open the way to all those who still wander in search of the truth. My children, be my apostles who have not lived in vain. Do not forget that you will come before the Heavenly Father and tell Him about yourself. Be ready! Again I am warning you, pray for those whom my Son called, whose hands He blessed and whom He gave as a gift to you. Pray, pray, pray for your shepherds. Thank you."

Tuesday, March 19, 2013 Solemnity of St. Joseph
The Bible
pays Joseph the highest compliment: he was a “just” man. The quality
meant a lot more than faithfulness in paying debts.
When the Bible speaks of God “justifying” someone, it means that God, the all-holy or “righteous” One, so transforms a person that the individual shares somehow in God’s own holiness, and hence it is really “right” for God to love him or her. In other words, God is not playing games, acting as if we were lovable when we are not.
By saying Joseph was “just,” the Bible means that he was one who was completely open to all that God wanted to do for him. He became holy by opening himself totally to God.
The rest we can easily surmise. Think of the kind of love with which he wooed and won Mary, and the depth of the love they shared during their marriage.
It is no contradiction of Joseph’s manly holiness that he decided to divorce Mary when she was found to be with child. The important words of the Bible are that he planned to do this “quietly” because he was “a righteous man, yet unwilling to expose her to shame” (Matthew 1:19).
The just man
was simply, joyfully, wholeheartedly obedient to God—in marrying Mary, in
naming Jesus, in shepherding the precious pair to Egypt, in bringing them to
Nazareth, in the undetermined number of years of quiet faith and
courage.

things and I have come to lead you towards holiness and the things of
God, but you are struggling and spending your energies in the battle
with the good and the evil that are in you. Therefore, little children,
pray, pray, pray until prayer becomes a joy for you and your life will
become a simple walk towards God. Thank you for having responded to my
call."

February 2, 2013 Message to Mirjana
"Dear children; Love is bringing me to you - the love which I desire to teach you also - real love; the love which my Son showed you when He died on the Cross out of love for you; the love which is always ready to forgive and to ask for forgiveness. How great is your love? My motherly heart is sorrowful as it searches for love in your hearts. You are not ready to submit your will to God's will out of love. You cannot help me to have those who have not come to know God's love to come to know it, because you do not have real love. Consecrate your hearts to me and I will lead you. I will teach you to forgive, to love your enemies and to live according to my Son. Do not be afraid for yourselves. In afflictions my Son does not forget those who love. I will be beside you. I will implore the Heavenly Father for the light of eternal truth and love to illuminate you. Pray for your shepherds so that through your fasting and prayer they can lead you in love. Thank you."

Tuesday, January 01, 2013 Mary, Mother of God
Mary’s
divine motherhood broadens the Christmas spotlight. Mary has an important role to
play in the Incarnation of the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity. She consents
to God’s invitation conveyed by the angel (Luke 1:26-38). Elizabeth
proclaims: “Most blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of
your womb. And how does this happen to me, that the mother of my Lord
should come to me?” (Luke 1:42-43, emphasis added). Mary’s role as
mother of God places her in a unique position in God’s redemptive plan.
Without naming Mary, Paul asserts that “God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law” (Galatians 4:4). Paul’s further statement that “God sent the spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying out ‘Abba, Father!’“ helps us realize that Mary is mother to all the brothers and sisters of Jesus.
Some theologians also insist that Mary’s motherhood of Jesus is an important element in God’s creative plan. God’s “first” thought in creating was Jesus. Jesus, the incarnate Word, is the one who could give God perfect love and worship on behalf of all creation. As Jesus was “first” in God’s mind, Mary was “second” insofar as she was chosen from all eternity to be his mother.
The precise title “Mother of God” goes back at least to the
third or fourth century. In the Greek form Theotokos (God-bearer), it
became the touchstone of the Church’s teaching about the Incarnation. The
Council of Ephesus in 431 insisted that the holy Fathers were right in calling the
holy virgin Theotokos. At the end of this particular session, crowds of
people marched through the street shouting: “Praised be the
Theotokos!” The tradition reaches to our own day. In its chapter on
Mary’s role in the Church, Vatican II’s Dogmatic Constitution on
the Church calls Mary “Mother of God” 12 times.
Without naming Mary, Paul asserts that “God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law” (Galatians 4:4). Paul’s further statement that “God sent the spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying out ‘Abba, Father!’“ helps us realize that Mary is mother to all the brothers and sisters of Jesus.
