Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary Protectress of Africa
Holy Mary, Mother of God, Protectress of Africa, you have given to the world the true Light, Jesus Christ. Through your obedience to the Father and the grace of the Holy Spirit, you have given us the source of our reconciliation and our justice, Jesus Christ, our peace and our joy.
Mother of Tenderness and Wisdom, show us Jesus, your Son and the Son of God. Guide our path of conversion, so that Jesus might shine his glory on us in every aspect of our personal, familial and social lives.
Mother, full of Mercy and Justice, through your docility to the Spirit, the Counselor, obtain for us the grace to be witnesses of the Risen Lord, so that we will increasingly become the salt of the earth and the light of the world.
Mother of Perpetual Help, we entrust to your maternal intercession the preparation and fruits of the Second Special Assembly for Africa. Queen of Peace, pray for us! Our Lady of Africa, pray for us!

Victor, Cratusian, and Companion, Martyrs
Victor Maurus (aka Victor the Moor)…I am a soldier, and I served in the Army of Caesar when Maximianus was Emperor, albeit my grey hairs bespoke my age.
I was born in Mauretania. I soldiered under Maximian at Milan. About, 303 A.D. an inquiry tried me for my Christian faith. I was tortured, suffered, and finally beheaded
He initiated a Christian persecution in what is now Milan, Italy. I was a Christian from a young age, but the Emperor, who knew me, did not know it. But spies informed him I was badmouthing Roman gods.
When Maximianus questioned me, and did not like my answers, he imprisoned me near the Circus, by the Way of the Ticinese Gate. I nevertheless professed faith in Christ Jesus, and His Blessed Mother Maryam.
The Emperor gave me six days to consider making sacrifice to the Roman gods, under threat of inhumane tortures. I starved during that time. No bread and water was allowed.
Maximianus ordered a platform built at the Circus’ Hippodrome. I was brought out. The Emperor questioned me. I told him that Christ was my salvation and strength, and the Spirit was my nourishment.
I was stretched beyond the third mark on the rack, and beaten.
Maximianus then attempted to bribe me, promoted me to the magister militum rank. He offered gold silver, retinues, and property. All I had to do was sacrifice to the Roman gods. I refused, calling the gods demons.
I told the Emperor my very self was a sacrifice in praise to Almighty God.
For three days by the Roman gate, I was imprisoned again. Refusing, to do as the torturers demanded, the clubs and beatings began anew. I was stretched to the 5th mark on the rack. I again refused under this torture. Maximianus again tossed me into prison, ordering my legs to be stretched apart on a slab.
I was shortly released. But the emperor’s Consiliarius, Anolinus warned me of my life. He was trying to force me to sacrifice.
Maximianus then had melted lead poured over me.
I prayed to Yeshua to release me, and an angel appeared. The lead was as cold water. It did not burn me. I thanked Father God and Jesus for this salvation. Christ, you who cooled the lead and enabled me to overcome the terrible tortures; do not allow me, I beg you, to be overcome by those men."
Maximianus had me taken to the Vercelline Gate. I was able to escape as the guards fell asleep. I hid in a horse stable, but was found, and beaten by the soldiers. I was transported to a Wood called The Elms.
I prayed, “I thank you, Lord Jesus Christ, that you have not separated me from your saints, my fellow citizens, Nabor and Felix. I bless and thank you forever. Amen.” I was then beheaded.
The Emperor ordered no grave be marked. He did not allow me to be buried, so that wild animals could feast. But two animals guarded my body, one my head, and the other at my feet.
Maximianus ordered my body buried. Bishop Maternus did so, after the animals allowed the Presbyter (Elder), to do so. I was martyred, 8 May, buried by Saint Maternus, bishop, 14 May.
Victor of Vilae, Bishop, of Carthage
Victor, martyred with Victorinus, and Nicephorus, (We were clobbered and pulverized, see large mortars) and Papias. We are martyrs, listed in the Ethiopian Coptic Calendar. 25 Feb.
Victor, Leomdas, martyr, Leomdas and Companion, martyrs

Victor, martyred in the West and North in Africa. 18 Dec. Victorus, see Adjutor, Quartus, and 40 Companions
Victor the Ninivite, martyred with Victorinus, Ninivita, Nicoforus, Claudianus (I had my legs whacked off), Diodorus (I was burned alive), Dioscorus, Serapion (I was beheaded). Martyred in Kemet. Some confusion exists to actually where we were martyred. 24 Feb. 27 April in some Menology, 25 Feb. in others, Roman Martyrology says martyred at Diospolis, Kemet, 284 A.D.
Pope St. Victor I. As the African chief priest of Rome, I was the first Pope to introduce Latin in the liturgy, church wide. I settled the imbroglio over the day of celebration for the resurrection of Our Lord (Easter). I condemned the Montanists, and the Gnostic Florentinus, the Roman priest. I excommunicated from the Latin rite church, Polycrator of Ephesus. I condemned Theodotus of Byzantium Monarchian. martyred under Septimus, 28 July.
Victor. Martyred at Alexandria with my mother, Sara. 20 Aug. In the Ethiopian/Abyssinian Coptic calendar.
Victor, I was a bishop, consecrated at Vita, in 484 A.D. Africa, Proconsularis, Byzacene (now Tunis). Born at Carthage, I was in the diocese under Eugene. I chronicled the persecutions of Hunneric, Vandal King, before dying in the 6th century. 23 Aug.

"Pray these days for the coming of the New Pentecost"
Wednesday, May 13, 2009
Dear Friends,
Unity and Variety
There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; there are different forms of service but the same Lord; there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone. To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit.
To one is given through the Spirit the expression of wisdom; to another the expression of knowledge according to the same Spirit; to another faith by the same Spirit; to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit; to another mighty deeds; to another prophecy; to another discernment of spirits; to another varieties of tongues; to another interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit produces all of these, distributing them individually to each person as he wishes. 1 Cor 12:4-11
We had a beautiful sunny day yesterday and the temperature was mild. Today the sun is shining bright and there is not a cloud in the sky.
I will celebrate Holy Mass this morning at the little shrine of Our Lady of Prince Edward Island at 9:30 a.m. I will drive to Charlottetown in the afternoon and this evening I will go to the prayer meeting at our church. Tomorrow I will start my journey to Quebec by going to sleep at my friend Ceo who will come with me, as he is my driver. There will be no message tomorrow as I will get ready for the trip.
Here is the message that Our Lord and Savior gave to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words, "It is of supreme importance that all My followers receive the Holy Spirit. Without the power of the Holy Spirit you cannot follow Me.
It was after My Ascension that the Father and I sent the Holy Spirit at Pentecost upon the Apostles, My Mother and all those present in the upper room. When the Spirit comes, He brings you many spiritual gifts and different forms of service.
One who has received the Spirit will receive one or more of the beautiful gifts that He gives. As the New Pentecost is here now, open your heart to all these wonderful manifestations of the Holy Spirit. He knows which one you are to receive.
Soon you will receive a strong and vibrant faith to believe in Me and accept all that I have taught you. The Spirit will grant you a deep love for Me and for your brothers and sisters. You will receive great peace that can only come from above and your heart will be filled with joy that only the Spirit can give.
You will always be ready to sacrifice yourself to help those in need and to spend time in prayer to praise and thank the Father for all that He is doing for you. I want you all to receive the New Pentecost so that you will be renewed in your whole being and remain in close union with Me. Pray these days for the coming of the New Pentecost upon all the people of the world. With this great gift you will live in peace and love."
Father Melvin
[Fr. Doucette: 242] Tue, May 12, 2009: "May you all be one"
FATHER MELVIN DOUCETTE
"May you all be one"
Tuesday, May 12, 2009
Dear Friends,
The Prayer of Jesus (continued)
Jesus said, I pray not only for them, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, so that they may all be one, as you, Father, are in me and I in you, that they also may be in us, that the world may believe that you sent me. And I have given them the glory you gave me, so that they may be one, as we are one.
I in them and you in me, that they may be brought to perfection as one, that the world may know that you sent me, and that you loved them even as you loved me. Father, they are your gift to me. I wish that where I am they also may be with me, that they may see my glory that you gave me, because you loved me before the foundation of the world. Righteous Father, the world also does not know you, but I know you, and they know that you sent me. I made know to them your name and I will make it known, that the love with which you loved me may be in them and I in them. John 17:20-26
Here is a message from Our Lord and Savior addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words, The day before My death on the cross, I prayed for the Apostles and all those who believed in Me.
I also prayed for all those who would come to believe in Me during the centuries up till today and beyond. I prayed especially for unity among all My followers that they be one as the Father and I are one. I want them all to come to know the Father and to love Him as He is their Creator and Lord.
Today’s world is in shambles and those who believe in Me are divided into many groups. Some believe this and others believe something else. The division among the Christians brings great pain to My heart. I call all to study what I have done with My Church from the beginning. I gave power and authority to My Church to teach the truth and to give you the Scriptures.
It was My Church under the successor of St. Peter that decided what books would be in the New Testament. If My Church had the authority to decide on the inspired Scripture, then she has the power to interpret these books for your good.
Follow these words of mine I present you today and work hard so that all My followers will be united under the Bishop of Rome, the successor of St. Peter, selected by Me to be the head of the Church. May you all be one as the Father and I are one.
Father Melvin
Important REPOST: From era of peace site: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/era-of-peace/message/402
How to Make Your Home a Refuge During the Tribulation
"Come, my people, enter your chambers, and shut your doors behind you; hide yourselves for a little while until the wrath is past. For behold, the LORD is coming forth out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity, and the earth will disclose the blood shed upon her, and will no more cover her slain." (Cf. Isa 26:20-21)
Louise Tomkiel (1)
February 19, 2001
Louise received a phone call from a friend, who after Saturday's message is concerned about other members of his family who are not paying attention to the instructions given to us by Jesus. Louise went into prayer with her friend, and received the following message which we felt should be shared with the world.
First, Louise asked Jesus to cover her with His Most Precious Blood.
Jesus then said: "My Word is Truth. My Word is Love. My Word is warning you. My Heart loves you. When will you listen to Me? When will you do as your told? Must a person tell you what to do, or must you listen only to God? Do I not know what is coming in the future? Do I not tell you? Do I not warn My people as I said I would do? Do I lie, or am I all truth? Am I not all Love and Truth? Do you not believe My Words?
These things are happening in your world today, and worse is yet to come, and it's coming quickly. For I am lowering My Arm, and no one will hold it back any longer, because of the terrible sins of mankind. So few people love Me, so few people honor and adore Me, and fewer still obey My Commandments and My Words. So few people today believe My messengers.
I chose these children of Mine around the world. Their words are being confirmed because they are of Me. Do not listen to anyone whose words are not confirmed for they are of evil.
If you hear these words to other messengers, to othehers of mine throughout the world, know that it is true. Do it! Do not wait for someone to tell you what to do. Listen to Me, obey Me, do what I tell you, for the time is short, and the cold will get worse, and the shortages will be a reality.
If you do not lay-in what you can according to the size of the place you live in, you will be sorry. Don't be like the foolish virgins, be wise as the others were, for your bridegroom is coming like a thief in the night. And he is coming soon. I tell you, if you have a closet, lay-in one of each.
If you have a basement, lay-in much of each. If you have a barn, store it up for yourself and animals, all creatures, for they depend on man, as they depend on Me. You must listen to Me as the creatures do, and depend on Me, not on one another. Do as you are told, be bold and go forth in My Name. Why are you fearful? Did I not save your neck, and I would take care of you? Do as your told and go forth. Put in your reserves now, tomorrow may be too late.
There is a war going on now, and America is part of it. Your country, the United States is a part of it. If the other countries of the Far East aim at you, you will have no electricity, no natural gas, there will be no stores open to buy, and people will panic. There will be riots and killing and stealing for people will want it. But I will protect those who listen to Me.
I will take care of what you have. And those of you who put up your sacramentals as I have told you, bless those windows and doors, put My signs around every wall and window, let it be seen by the world. For I have promised you, your homes will not be seen by the evil ones. They will pass you by as they did in the Passover. I will bless My people who listen to Me. Who love honor and obey Me. Do it while there is time, and the time is now."
Louise now receives a vision: "I even see fires around the country. I see floods. I see a lot of major cities, their not anymore. They're being either burnt or flooded out, or bombed out. I see The Lord's refuges standing loud and clear and bright, but people can't see them, they don't know where they are. They're right in front of their noses, but they can't see them.
Jesus then speaks again: 'Not everyone will have to go into caves, for not everyone can travel that far. For many are crippled, some in body, that is their limbs are crippled, but others are crippled because of diseases and they can't go. Then I will make those refuges if you want your place to be a refuge, then obey Me, and have that house consecrated to Me by a priest.
A good priest! Have that home blessed. Have your property blessed. And bless your cars. Bless everything in My Name, and you will be safe. Do not obey Me, and you will pay for it.
I am doing what I can do for My people. And I am talking to you through other people. I am using them. If you hear a confirmation, do it! Pray, and I will tell you what to do. Fear not, for I live in the hearts of My children. Open your heart to Me. Let Me in and hear Me. You know not the days that are left.
You do not know what evil is up to, but I do, and yes your God is the conqueror. But there will be much to go through between now and the days when the new earth and new Heavens appear. Yet I will take care of Mine, and Mine will take care of others. Obey Me.'
John Leary (2)
February 17, 2006:
Jesus said: "My people, there are some people with some money that have heard a call to start a refuge. Looking to establish a refuge should come only after strong prayer and discernment. The land of a refuge should be consecrated to Me and there usually are springs of water on this land.
Some have built some structures on the land with some animals and have stored food and blankets. I will bless all of My faithful who have been called to start a refuge. During the tribulation these places will be protected havens for My faithful."
April 14, 2008:
Jesus said: "My people, you have seen many churches closed all over your country, and many of them may be in disrepair. This vision of this small church is a suggestion for purchase by some prayer groups that want to have a refuge for people to come to. The land of a church has been consecrated and this is one requirement for a refuge. A church in a more remote location may suit a better place for such a refuge.
This also is already built, even though it may need some repairs. It is sad that they are closing so many of My churches where people are losing the opportunities of having My sacraments and visiting My tabernacles. By making some churches into refuges, they still could be used for religious purposes than being destroyed or used for secular uses.
This requires prayer, discernment, and a purchase commitment for those undertaking such a project. Trust in Me that any such refuge would have My angel protection, and it would provide for those needing a place to stay during the coming tribulation."

Medjugorje Day By Day May 13 - CARRY PEACE TO OTHERS
OUR LADY OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT - MAY 13
The title of Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament was first given to Mary
by St. Peter Julian Eymard in May 1868, while speaking to his
novices. A few years later he described what her statue should look
like: "The Blessed Virgin holds the Infant in her arms; and He holds
a chalice in one hand and a Host in the other."
He exhorted them to invoke Mary: "Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament,
pray for us who have recourse to thee!"
Later, Pius IX enriched the invocation with indulgences. Twice, St.
Pius X did the same. On December 30, 1905, he granted a 300 days
indulgence to the faithful who pray: to Our Lady of the Most Blessed
Sacrament, pray for us."This title, Our Lady of the Blessed
Sacrament, is perhaps the most meaningful of all," said St. Pius X.
_Our Lady of the MSS_ (http://www.acfp2000.com

"He that loves God in suffering earns a double reward in Paradise"
St. Alphonsus Liguori
"[Jesus] You are the Adored Eagle whom I love and who alone attracts me! Coming into this land of exile You willed to suffer and to die in order to draw souls to the bosom of the Eternal Fire of the Blessed Trinity. Ascending once again to the Inaccessible Light, henceforth Your abode, You remain still in the 'valley of tears,' hidden beneath the appearances of a white host" (St. Therese of Lisieux).
"No other Sacrament so inflames souls with Divine Love as the Sacrament of the Eucharist, in which Jesus Christ gives us His whole self, so to unite us all to Him through holy love" (St. Alphonsus Liguori).
Mother Teresa
We cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love.
Meditations by Padre Pio -
Do not leave the altar without first shedding tears of sorrow and love for Jesus, crucified for your eternal salvation. Our Lady of Sorrows will keep you company and inspire you.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen
The separation of state from man's soul
"The stubborn worship of a theory has had most appalling consequences in our day. To the theorist, it does not seem to matter that whole nations are deprived of liberty, that millions starve, that thousands are purged - so long as the theory is maintained in power. Instead of making the hat of governmental policy fit the head of man, the modern tendency is to cut off the head if it does not fit the hat - to demand that institutions, political schemes and social theories must prevail, no matter if their cost proves to be the destruction of man himself."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html
I know that I live, not for myself, but for a great number of souls. I know that graces granted me are not for me alone, but for souls. O Jesus, the abyss of Your mercy has been poured into my soul, which is an abyss of misery itself. Thank You, Jesus, for the graces and the pieces of the Cross which You give me at each moment of my life. (382)
Jesus made known to me how very pleasing to Him were prayers of atonement. He said to me, The prayer of a humble and loving soul disarms the anger of My Father and draws down an ocean of blessings.
After the adoration, half way to my cell, I was surrounded by a pack of huge black dogs who were jumping and howling and trying to tear me to pieces. I realized that they were not dogs, but demons. One of them spoke up in a rage, "Because you have snatched so many souls away from us this night, we will tear you to pieces."
I answered, "If that is the will of the most merciful God, tear me to pieces, for I have justly deserved it, because I am the most miserable of all sinners, and God is ever holy, just, and infinitely merciful."
To these words all the demons answered as one, "Let us flee for she is not alone; the Almighty is with her!" And they vanished like dust, like the noise of the road, while I continued on my way to my cell undisturbed, finishing my Te Deum and pondering the infinite and unfathomable mercy of God. (320)
MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY
These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.
May 13 - CARRY PEACE TO OTHERS
Today Our Lady gives a message of peace:
O children! I want you to live each new day with love and peace. I wish that you carry peace and love to others. People need these graces of love and peace so much, yet they lose them because they do not pray. Create a permanent prayer in your hearts, for only then can you become vessels of the Lord. Through prayer your Father will mold you into the vessels he desires. Abandon yourself to him so that he can do this (Locutionists Jelena & Mirajana July 11, 1987).
In his first letter, Peter also speaks of peace:
Finally, all of you, have unity of spirit, sympathy, love for one another, a tender heart, and a humble mind. Do not repay evil for evil or abuse for abuse; but, on the contrary, repay with a peaceful blessing. It is for this that you were called-that you might inherit a blessing (1 Pt 3: 8-89).
Reflection:
The Blessed Virgin has often said in Medjugorje that peace must begin within the individual heart and spread outward from there. This is the message of a little story about a father who came home from work hoping to find some rest and quiet. But his young daughter kept pestering him.
To keep her quiet, he cut out a map of the world from a newspaper and cut it up into pieces of different sizes. He then told her that he would give her a bar of chocolate when she had "put the world together." He hoped this would give him an hour of peace.
Five minutes later she came back telling him that the map was finished and was laid out on the floor. The father was surprised and asked, "How did you get it together so quickly?" "That was easy," she said, "I just turned the pieces over, and on the other side, I saw the picture of a man. When the man was put together right, the world was right."
Application:
Today, pray for peace within your own heart, for only than can it spread outward.
Medjugorje Day By Day May 14 - GOD RULES OVER ALL RELIGIONS
"Especially from the Eucharist, as from a font, grace is poured forth upon us; and the sanctification of men in Christ and the glorification of God, to which all other activities of the Church are directed as toward their end, is achieved in the most efficacious possible way" (Sacrosanctum Concilium).
Mother Teresa
We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.
Padre Pio -
My son, you do not know the effects of obedience. Well, for a yes, for a single yes, be it done onto me according to Your word, to do God's will, Mary became the mother of mother of the Most High, professing herself to be His handmaid and keeping her virginity which was so dear to God and herself. Thanks to this "yes" pronounced by Mary Most Holy, the world obtained salvation and humanity was redeemed. Let us always do God's will and always say yes to the Lord
Archbishop Fulton Sheen

St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
My Jesus, despite Your graces, I see and feel all my misery. I begin my day with battle and end it with battle. As soon as I conquer one obstacle, ten more appear to take its place.
But I am not worried, because I know that this is the time of struggle, not peace. When the burden of the battle becomes too much for me, I throw myself like a child into the arms of the heavenly Father and trust I will not perish. O my Jesus, how prone I am to evil, and this forces me to be constantly vigilant. But I do not lose heart. I trust God's grace, which abounds in the worst misery. (606)
MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY
These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.
May 14 - GOD RULES OVER ALL RELIGIONS
The Mother of God speaks of ecumenism, or brotherhood, today. In answer to the question, "Are all religions good?" she responded:
All religions are similar before God. God rules over them just like a sovereign over his kingdom. In the world, all religions are not the same because people have not complied with the commandments of God. They reject and disparage them (First Years October 1, 1981).
In this same spirit, St. Paul calls us to be ambassadors of reconciliation among God's people:
All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and had given us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ, God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting the message of reconciliation to us. So we are ambassadors for Christ, since God is making his appeal through us. (2 Cor 5:18-20).
Reflection:
Both Our Lady and St. Paul call us to reconciliation with each other, both as individuals and as groups. Today the Gospa tells us that, "All religions are similar before God, "although not the same. Her desire is that our common brotherhood unite all faiths, each respecting the other.
This is the spirit that underlies the story of the Grand Rabbi of Lyons, who was a Jewish chaplain to the French during World War I. One day, a wounded man staggered into a trench and told the Rabbi that a Roman Catholic was on the point of death in no man's land, and was begging that his priest should come to him with a crucifix.
The priest could not quickly be found. The Jew rapidly improvised a cross, ran out with it into no man's land, and was seen to hold it before the dying man's eyes.
Almost immediately, he was shot by a sniper. The bodies of the Catholic and the Jew were found together.
Application:
Today, pray especially for the unity of all God's children. If you ever have the opportunity to go to an ecumenical service(often held on special holidays), make a special effort to attend in response to Our Lady's message today.
SHORT POWERFUL PRAYER THROUGH ST. JOSEPH
"Glorious St. Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful
guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of
God, I ask you to join me in praising God the Father
through His Divine Son who died on the cross and
rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the
Holy Name of Jesus, pray with me that we may obtain
from the eternal Father the favor we ask. (here
state your intention)."
Say this prayer for nine consecutive days.
Fear not! God is your shelter (the 23rd Psalm and the Lord’s Prayer. God never fails). Don’t fail him. Call on Jesus. Jesus on the mainline, tell him what you want!
