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!

"Do not be afraid"
Dear Friends,
Trial of Persecution
Beloved, do not be surprised that a trial by fire is occurring among you, as if something strange were happening to you. But rejoice to the extent that you share in the sufferings of Christ, so that when his glory is revealed you may also rejoice exultantly. If you are insulted for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. But let no one among you be made to suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as an intriguer.
But whoever is made to suffer as a Christian should not be ashamed but glorify God because of the name. For it is time for the judgment to begin with the household of God; if it begins with us, how will it end for those who fail to obey the Gospel of God?
And if the righteous one is barely saved, where will the godless and the sinner appear? As a result, those who suffer in accord with God’s will hand their souls over to a faithful creator as they do good. (1 Peter 4, 12–19)
Here below is the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,
“All My followers have to face times of persecution in their lives. You will be laughed at because of Me and others will be mocked. You can be dragged to court or to committees because of holding to the truth. Today a Christian can be tried if he or she should publicly refuse to sanction homosexual marriages or refuse homosexuals to sleep in the same room in your home. Government officials who refuse to officiate at homosexual marriages could be kicked out of their job.
How many people have been arrested for demonstrating before an abortion clinic? The world today does not follow Christian morals and they are trying to force the Christians to follow them.
I tell you, My dear friends, do not be afraid of those who can kill the body but cannot kill the spirit. I came to bring you the truth, so follow what I tell you and what My Church tells you and you will be saved. Do not be angry at those people who persecute you but be ready to explain to them why you follow the Christian way.
Accept to suffer for My sake as you know that I suffered until death to redeem you from your sins. Your example will bring others to follow you and these too will be saved. Do not be ashamed to suffer at times for the truth, which I brought you. Only the truth will set you free. I love you and I bless you all.”

"Show love and reverence"
Dear Friends,
Have great Reverence for the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit
Now if you invoke as Father him who judges impartially according to each one's works, conduct yourselves with reverence during the time of your sojourning, realizing that you were ransomed from your futile conduct, handed on by your ancestors, not with perishable things like silver and gold but with the precious blood of Christ as of a spotless unblemished lamb.
He was known before the foundation of the world but revealed in the final time for you, who through him believe in God who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God. (1 Peter 1, 17 - 21)
Here is the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,
"Many Christians today do not have much reverence for the Father, for the Holy Spirit and for Me, the Son of God. Some will shout at the Father or at Me saying that we do not care for them. Others will even curse God.
In many churches the Christians do not acknowledge My presence in the Tabernacle of their church. They do not genuflect or even bow as they pass the tabernacle. Is this the proper way to act in front of your Savior and Lord? Should you not show respect to the one who created you and who came to redeem you from your sins?
My dear friends, I call upon you to think about what you are doing when you do not show respect to the Father, to the Holy Spirit or to Me. You are insulting the one who created you and gave you everything you have. You do not care for the Holy Spirit who works in you to make you a child of God. I am your Savior who suffered and died for you and opened heaven for you so that you can enter heaven and be with us forever.
From now on, My dear friends, show love and reverence to the Father, the Holy Spirit and to Me, Your Redeemer. Genuflect as you pass the tabernacle in your church and kneel when you come into the church. Do not talk in the church as if you were at the marketplace. Have respect for God who loves you and you will be blessed. I love you."
Father Melvin
The Rev. Fr. Melvin Doucette, M.Afr

"I bless your homes"
Dear Friends,
God's Love and Christian Life
Beloved, let us love one another, because love is of God; everyone who loves is begotten by God and knows God. Whoever is without love does not know God, for God is love. In this way the love of God was revealed to us: God sent his only Son into the world so that we might have life through him.
In this is love: not that we have loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as expiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also must love one another. No one has even seen God. Yet, if we love one another, God remains in us, and his love is brought to perfection in us. (1 John 4:7-12)
It was cloudy Christmas Day and again yesterday but we had hardly any snow, only a few flakes now and then. We should see the sun today.
Here is the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,
"I was born in the world's most special family with Mary as My Mother and Joseph as My foster father. Love of God and love of one another reigned in the family. Joseph whom I called My father was a very good man. He worked hard to take care of both of us. He was always very patient and he was our great protector. What would My Mother have done if he had not been there to help us flee to Egypt?
When we returned from Egypt, Joseph was there to help us settle in Nazareth and to have a loving home. I thank My dear Mother for being so loving and for taking care of Me day after day when I was young. She was the heart of the home and a holy woman of prayer. Her life was a life of service as She was always ready to be of service to us.
I grew up like any other child needing the help of a mother and father. Every child that is born into the world should be born in a family where his parents love one another and they are ready every day to take care of their child. They will love this child as a gift of God and bring him up to know Me who loves every child. Let the Holy Family of Nazareth be an example to all families.
Pray that you will receive the graces to follow in the footsteps of My family. Couples are to live together until death where the children will have a loving home and grow up in the embrace of their mothers and fathers. I bless your homes and I call you all to love one another."
Father Melvin

MY DEAR DEAR PRECIOUS LITTLE CHILDREN,
THANK YOU FOR ENDURING SO MUCH FOR JESUS' SAKE. YOU HAVE SHARED YOUR
CHRISTMAS WITH THOSE YOU LOVE AND GOD HAS BLESSED YOU IN A MOST SPECIAL WAY.
THE TOUCH OF MY SON WAS PLACED ON YOUR HEARTS AND IN DOING SO HAS LEFT
IMPRINTED ON EACH ONE AN INDELIBLE MARK. IT IS DIFFERENT THAN ALL ELSE YOU HAVE
RECEIVED. THIS MARK IS OF THE FATHER GIVEN THROUGH HIS SON AND THOSE IN UNITY
CAN BE ASSURED OF IT. THOSE YOU LOVE WERE INCLUDED AND SO NOW YOU REMAIN
STANDING AGAINST ALL EVIL AND UNTRUTHS. THOSE WHO ENCOUNTER YOU WILL KNOW
YOU ARE OF GOD AND THAT YOU STAND FIRM IN THE TRUTH. THE MARK YOU NOW CARRY
IS NOT THE LIGHT.
IT IS NOT THE MARK OF MY SON, IT IS THE MARK OF GOD THE FATHER
AND SHALL BRING YOU INTO HOLINESS. AS YOU CONTINUE IN PRAYER, YOU WILL REALIZE
MORE AND MORE THAT WHAT HAS BEEN DONE FOR YOU HAS PLACED YOU NEAR THE
FATHER AND HE KEEPS WATCH OVER YOU.
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS DAY AN OBSERVANCE OF REVERENCE FOR THIS THE DAY OF
THE LORD. BE EVER VIGILANT IN ALL YOU DO, THAT YOUR EXAMPLE BE TO OTHERS A SIGN
OF YOUR INHERITANCE.
I GIVE TO ALL MY BLESSING ESPECIALLY DO I BLESS MY BELOVED LITTLE PRIEST SON. HIS
LONGEVITY HAS MADE ITS MARK ON THE WORLD AND I AM GRATEFUL FOR HIS LOVE AND
FIDELITY.
NOW FROM HIS HEART AND THE HEART OF MY PRIEST-SONS COMES THE BLESSING
OF CHRIST. HOW MAGNIFICANT IT IS - BE EVER GRATEFUL, PRAISING AND THANKING GOD,
NOW AND FOREVER.
Message to Eileen Renders Dec. 25, 2009
Yesterday my computer monitor crashed. We were able to locate another and by the end of the day, connect it. Therefore Jesus' message after HOly Communion is now being sent below.
Christmas Day, December 28, 2009
Jesus Promises Us A New Day!
Today we attended the 8:00 AM Mass at our parish, Our Lady Of Sorrows where I made small offerings to Jesus and Mary and prayed for all with special needs and intentions.
Prior to receiving the most sacred Body and Blood of Christ in the sacrament of Holy Communion, I made an Act of Contrition. With the most precious Host on my tongue, I knelt in silent commune with Jesus, both hands covering my face.
At once, tear began to flow as I sensed His presence within my own body and heart. Before I began to pray and as I was giving thanks and praise to Jesus, He began to speak to my heart saying;
My child Eileen, Rise up as today is a new day! Each time you eat My body and drink My blood, you are promised a new day! Go in peace to love and serve the Lord, continue to pray for your brothers and sisters. Amen.
Messages to John Leary Nov. 18-Dec.1, 2009
Wednesday, November 18, 2009
Jesus said: My people, as you come to the end times, you need to be prepared for a new way of life first at your refuges and then in My Era of Peace. This pile of fill dirt is a preparation for a new yard, but preparing to leave for your refuges is getting ready for a new life as well. When you leave for your refuge, you will not be returning to your homes, but you will be giving up your possessions to live in a Christian community protected by My angels.
I am making saints out of you by living a more simple life away from the evil of the world. You will be living your purgatory on earth as you endure the tribulation time. At the end of the Antichrist’s reign, I will have My victory over evil as I renew the earth and bring you into My Era of Peace. Rejoice in My victory as you will be perfected to enter heaven.
Jesus said: My people, this vision of everything turning yellow is an indication of a new virus outbreak. Seeing a fireman means there was an emergency to get this outbreak under control.
A deadly virus is exactly what I warned My faithful to be ready for in going to My refuges for protection. I have warned you that these man-made flu viruses could get worse, as planned by the one world people. That could cause a martial law declaration. These evil ones are looking for the least excuse to cause a takeover of America. A pandemic virus like the Swine Flu could be used initially to form the problem, and eventually the Swine Flu shots could be made to seem the solution, especially when it is forced on your people as mandatory.
It will become more and more obvious that these new viruses are man-made and that you should avoid taking these shots to keep healthy. Pray for My help to keep you healthy and protected from these sicknesses.
Thursday, November 19, 2009
Jesus said: My people, today’s readings are a preview of your own events that are about to take place. The Book of Machabees speaks of how they were being forced by the king to worship other gods on the king’s altar. They destroyed the altar and they hid in the mountains while leaving all of their possessions behind. You will be called at the appointed time to leave your possessions behind as well and flee to My refuges to avoid being captured and killed by the one world people’s UN armies.
In the Gospel I spoke of the coming destruction of Jerusalem, and I also spoke that the people should recognize their time of visitation when this destruction would take place at the hands of the Romans.
You are seeing events lead up to America’s time of takeover when you will see your own visitation leading up to the Antichrist’s declaration of power. Be forewarned that once martial law comes, you will need to flee to My refuges by following your guardian angels.
Prayer Group:
Jesus said: My people, this final bill has the public option that will undercut your existing health plans. There still could be amendments that could include payments for abortions. There will be a provision for a National Health card with a microchip that will be required for any treatment. This 2,000 page document still requires 60 votes and a joint bill to be passed again in both the House and the Senate. The taxes and conditions have yet to be highlighted, but it will bring big government into control of everyone’s health plan. This expense is beyond what your country can afford and it would probably be better not to pass.
Jesus said: My people, many of your workers are losing their pensions, health benefits, and even their jobs thanks to your greedy CEOs. Most of the cost cutting at your factories has been at the expense of workers losing hours, pay, benefits, and even layoffs that are still going on.
As your workers suffer, your executives are getting unusually rich pensions and salary bonuses, even when their companies are losing money. Even your Congress is investigating executive pay, especially for companies receiving taxpayer bailouts. Pray that there will be some equity in all salary levels and that your jobs could improve.
Jesus said: My people, you continue to see more severe earthquakes with many of them occurring under water. You have also witnessed several smaller tsunami waves. This increased number of earthquakes could be leading up to larger earthquakes with bigger waves resulting. Pray for My protection from these natural disasters and move away from those areas close to the ocean.
Jesus said: My people, there has been some indecision in supporting the current leaders of Afghanistan with your troops and that of other countries there. As America is withdrawing out of Iraq, there is concern how to limit America’s stay in Afghanistan.
These constant wars are wearing down your troops, even when there is no clear cut reason for being there. Pray for peace in these lands where Satan is constantly stirring up dissension among these countries.
Jesus said: My people, your financial woes are still challenging your people because of your high unemployment and many homes suffering through foreclosures. Your smaller banks are still failing and bankruptcies of individuals are on the increase. Many of your state governments are also struggling with constant deficits in their budgets because of poor investments and taking in less taxes.
These economic difficulties are not getting much better and many people are suffering as a result. Pray that your families will find a way to provide for your bare necessities. Call on My help and reach out to your families and friends who need financial help at this time.
Jesus said: My people, even though you will soon be preparing your Thanksgiving Dinner in your families, there are those around you who need food and clothing just to survive. Many of you have some surplus wealth that you could share with the hungry and the poor.
Bringing food or donations to your local food shelves is a worthy sacrifice to help those suffering from the recession and unemployment. In hard times it is harder to find donations to charities, so it may be more of a sacrifice to give up something you like for someone to have a meal to eat. You will be rewarded for your efforts and I thank you for helping Me in the poor.
Jesus said: My people, many Spanish speaking people have a great love for My Infancy as they pray to Me as Santo Nino . This is a nine day novena that precedes the Christmas celebration of My birth. Many prayers are answered through this novena and it would be good to read up on the prayers that are said at that time.
You all love little babies, and you could surely picture loving Me as a new born baby. You can pray to Me as an Infant King or a grown up King because I hear all of your prayers at any age. With Me there is no time as I exist in the eternal now. Share your intentions with Me when you make this novena to Me.

Jesus said: My people, in the vision you see the steel tracks that allow trains to carry heavy loads. In your tall buildings you use steel I beams to hold your buildings together. In a spiritual way I am your strength and support in all of your situations in life. You can always call on My help to get you through sicknesses and unemployment. I am at your side to provide for your every need, so just have faith and trust in My help.
Do not be concerned with being rich, but be satisfied that you are fed and have shelter. Even in hard times you may have to depend on your family for support as well. Be gracious in helping others to get by in their necessities. You can be My arms and legs to carry out what I want for your neighbor’s needs.
Jesus said: My people, this dragon undermining an American road is a sign of China as an evil force that will cause America grief in your economy with the dollar. China has many times threatened to try and change the dollar to another international currency as the standard of exchange. Their money and their holdings of American Treasury notes are losing value as America increases its debts and the selling of more Treasury notes.
As your Federal Reserve keeps expanding its balance sheet by buying Treasury notes, soon America will need to print more dollars to monetize your debt, thus adding to inflation. China is in control of the many goods that you buy and they could blackmail America by threatening to sell their goods to others and exchange their dollars for another currency.
Since America has little manufacturing, you would be ruined without a source of cheap goods and a place to sell your debt. China is still a communist nation with an ambition for world control, which is why they are using their wealth to expand their army, navy, and air force.
China could become more of a threat to Korea, Taiwan, and even Japan with a change in military strength. I am forewarning America that China is planning to undermine your economy and threaten your military power as well.
Saturday, November 21, 2009: (Presentation of Mary)
Jesus said: My people, many are taken up with the distractions of this world with all of their pleasures and comforts. A person of the world avoids suffering, the cross, prayer, and Confession. A person of the Spirit shuns worldly things and seeks only the spiritual things that will lead them to heaven. These are the two roads that every soul must choose between. Everyone also needs to see what is at the end of each road at your judgment to help choose the best outcome. This vision of hell in darkness and flames of fire is in store for those who ignore Me and indulge in all the pleasures of the world.
Those, who travel the narrow road through My footsteps of suffering, will detach themselves from the desires of this world, so they can have eternal joy with Me in the glories of heaven. After viewing both destinations, there can be only one obvious choice to want to be with Me in the Light. There is a price to pay in order to come to heaven because a holy life takes a life long work to overcome the desires of the body.
Following the desires of the soul leads you to My peace, but you must bear the evil one’s temptation to sin every day. This is the struggle that every soul must face, but your reward in heaven is far worth your effort. Those, who try and fall short in purgatory, will suffer in this purification to be with Me.
But those, who do not love Me and love the world instead, will find an eternity of grief in the darkness and flames of hell by their own choice. Wake up and follow Me before it may be too late and you will lose your soul to the evil one who will torment you for all eternity in hell.
Jesus said: My people, most people do not like the stink of a water treatment plant where it is hard to keep the smell from going into the air. In a spiritual way your souls also are hideous to Me by the sins in your soul. In order to cleanse the stench of your sinful souls, you need to come to Me in Confession where the priest can absolve your sins and you can ask for My forgiveness in your Act of Contrition.
I cleanse your sins and restore My graces in your soul so you are once again beautiful to look at. Many may think I cannot see your sins, but I see everything that you do and you cannot hide anything from Me. I know all of your sins and how much you need to be cleansed.
When you come to Me in Confession, you need to admit that you are a sinner and are in need of My forgiveness. Make a firm amendment not to repeat your sins, and not to live in a sinful lifestyle.
Sunday, November 22, 2009: (Christ the King)
Jesus said: My people, this celebration of My Kingship is not anything like your earthly kings. This picture that you have in your possession is a miracle picture that portrays the end times when souls will be judged. The sickle represents the time to gather the wheat of My faithful into the barn of heaven. It also is a time to gather the grapes of the evil ones to be cast into hell.
Many find it hard to believe that this event could happen in your lifetime. You have all the signs around you that the Antichrist is about to be declared as he will have a brief reign on the earth.
At the end of this coming tribulation I will bring My Comet of Chastisement to conquer all the evil ones. I will renew the earth and bring My faithful into My Era of Peace. Then after a long time, My faithful will be prepared to enter heaven. Then you will see Me in all of My glory as King of all of My creation.
Jesus said: My people, I thank all of you for coming to this shrine to honor My Kingship, even amidst the cold and your effort to travel here. I love all of you so much, which is why I am showing you My beating heart in My Sacred Heart. In today’s Gospel reading you were read the account of My Kingship before Pilate. This vision of Me in My crown of thorns is how you can appreciate My love for you in dying for your sins.
As you think of My death, you can also see how I suffered in this Shroud of Turin. I thank Alex for his mission in sharing My picture of My death in the shroud. I thank your people here again as you pray to stop your abortions which are weighing heavily against America. You celebrate My Kingship here every year, and I am grateful for all of your devotions and prayers.
Remember to keep your focus on Me as I walk with you through this life. For all those, who worship Me and follow My Commandments, you will one day see Me on My throne as I welcome all of My faithful home in heaven.
Monday, November 23, 2009: (St. Clement I)
Jesus said: My people, America is the largest dealer of weapons in the world that is supported by your Industrial-Defense complex. These weapons makers get their money from your taxpayers because your Department of Defense money is the largest portion of your entire National Budget.
You spend billions of dollars every year developing the latest and most expensive weapons available. Usually these weapons are overkill against smaller countries. Instead of spending so much money on weapons and Defense, you could use that money to feed the poor and provide more worthwhile jobs to the unemployed.
You are preparing for Thanksgiving Day dinner and your thoughts should be focused more on helping and feeding people, instead of how to kill people.
Jesus said: My people, I am showing you this large picture frame because you need to know the big picture behind the current battle between good and evil. On the one side you have Satan and his demons getting the rich people to worship him and follow his orders. On the other side you have Me, My saints, and the angels encouraging people to repent of their sins and be converted.
Satan is allowed to control the rich and powerful in creating a death culture against man. He hates man and he is enabling evil people to promote abortions, euthanasia, constant wars, and man-made viruses to kill many. The one world people are also forming unions as the European Union and the North American Union. They will form unions on every continent and they will be joined together and given over to the Antichrist to control the world.
This reign of evil will be brief as I will bring My Comet of Chastisement to destroy all of the evil ones. I will protect My faithful and bring you into My Era of Peace. There will be peace without the temptations of the devil, as you will be perfected for heaven. Rejoice when you see these events take place, because you will soon see My return on the clouds.
Tuesday, November 24, 2009: (St. Andrew & Companions)
Jesus said: My people, in today’s Gospel I told My apostles that there would not be a stone left upon a stone when Jerusalem would be destroyed. They all wanted to know when I would return, but it is My choice when I will return at the appointed time known only to My Father.
This sign of destruction in your day will be when the Antichrist takes power and America will be taken over. I warned My people not to believe in the one who claims to be Me, because this is what the Antichrist will claim.
You will see an evil that you have never seen before during the coming tribulation. This time is coming in your lifetime, and I will vanquish all the evil ones while you are safe at My refuges. Then I will renew the earth in My Era of Peace. You truly are living in the end times as you are reading of My coming return.
Jesus said: My people, it is a blessing to you that each person is different and you have been given various skills to help people. One may be good at fixing cars, one at computers, or one at fixing houses. By helping each other with your skills, you are able to make a living for yourself. No matter how good you are at your trade or work, you should always give thanks to Me for giving you your gifts.
Do not be prideful in your accomplishments, but give glory to Me for all that you are able to do, and the opportunity to use your skills productively. You are able to store more treasure in heaven when you help people without taking payment for your work, and volunteering without being asked.
When you see someone in need, then take that opportunity to fulfill that need. When you help someone, you are helping Me in that person out of love.
Wednesday, November 25, 2009: (St. Catherine of Alexandria)
Jesus said: My people, over the years you have developed some bad habits of sin, and if you are sincere in your faith, you need to work on shedding these sins as a butterfly sheds its cocoon. You need to grow in your faith and perfect your spiritual life in preparation for your new life with Me. You will change first into a new life in My Era of Peace.
Finally, you will be prepared to be a saint in heaven which should be your eternal goal with Me. This metamorphosis of a caterpillar into a butterfly is eventually how your glorified body will be joined with your soul in your resurrection after the final judgment.
Many of you are looking forward to these changes from your earthly life. Walk with Me in living out your faith by following My Commandments and loving Me and your neighbor. You have Confession to cleanse your sins when you have need of My graces.
Jesus said: My people, your lives at times are like a train moving down a track. When you are following My laws and loving Me and your neighbor, you are on the right track to heaven. At times you may be side tracked by your own will that could lead you into various addictions. You had such a detour in your excessive computer programming.
Once you allow something to come between you and Me, it is hard to turn back to My ways. This is why it is important that you consecrate your lives over to Me, so I can lead you, and you will not get side tracked from your goal to heaven and following My Will.
Once you are safely back on the right track, then you will be comfortable in loving Me. My sacraments, as Penance and Holy Communion, are your food or fuel to keep your train running in grace. By keeping your life together with Me, you will reach the right destination for your soul in heaven.
Thursday, November 26, 2009: (Thanksgiving Day)
Jesus said: My people, you truly have many things to be thankful for, and especially you should be happy to have Me at Holy Communion in My Real Presence at every daily Mass. Be thankful to also have a priest to offer Holy Mass, the most beautiful prayer that I have given you.
You make many petitions in your prayers, but always remember to thank Me for answering your prayers. Be thankful also for your many gifts of life in your family and in all of My gifts to make your living possible. Your deacon even spoke of your problems as gifts, but this is harder to understand. It is your needs and the needs of the poor that can be seen as problems, but you need to reach out to the poor in helping them with food, clothing, and shelter.
You can make donations to your local food shelves or other charities that help the poor. When you share your gifts of time and money with others, it is your way of thanking Me for what you have been given. Some even believe in tithing ten per cent of their income to charity and supporting My Church. For all that you do for people out of love, you will have your reward in heaven.
Friday, November 27, 2009
Jesus said: My people, many will tell you that the world will continue as it is, but those, who are the wise virgins, have read the signs of My coming in the Scriptures and know that I am truly coming soon. The computer chips, that are the mark of the beast, are controlling people already. The Antichrist, that I have shown you, is about to declare himself.
The unions are being formed to be given over to the Antichrist. You are seeing the famines, earthquakes increasing, and the man-made pestilence diseases. The increase in knowledge and the extent of evil in the world are the signs to know that the end is near for the earth as you know it. Rejoice as you see these things happening, because soon you will see My return.
(Camille’s Mass) At Holy Name after Communion I saw Camille as a younger man and he had Jesus sprinkle a water of graces on all of us present at the Mass. Camille said: I thank you for all the Masses that you had said for My soul. It was this anticipation of graces outside of time that allowed Me into heaven so soon. Now that I am in heaven, I will help all of you from heaven.
I started by having Jesus bless all of you with His baptismal waters of grace. Take good care of Lydia in comforting her over my leaving. I am confirming all of the activity that you have seen with the chairlifts and the lights.
Saturday, November 28, 2009
Jesus said: My people, in the readings I have warned you to be prepared for the days of tribulation when the evil ones of the world will test you and persecute you. You will need to go to My refuges of protection where My angels will watch over you and provide for your food and shelter.
The readings are announcing My coming in the end days and you need to have your souls prepared in grace to meet Me. You are changing over to a new Church Year with this last Mass of the year. Now you will start preparing for Christmas with the beginning of the Advent Season. Rejoice every year that you celebrate My coming at Christmas, and rejoice when the tribulation is ending, as I will return to the earth in glory.
Sunday, November 29, 2009: (First Sunday of Advent)
Jesus said: My people, today starts your Advent Season and many are more focused on buying gifts for Christmas. Yet in the Gospel reading it speaks more of the coming kingdom and My return to the earth. Before My return, you are seeing a black image of evil and suffering in the tribulation.
The Antichrist will appear first and I have given you many messages about preparing to leave for My refuges before he tries to kill you. My kingdom is already on the earth in My sacraments and in the Holy Spirit’s dwelling in each soul. The reading speaks of how I will come in glory on the clouds to defeat all evil and bring My Light of goodness to dispel the darkness of evil.
You know the end of this story as evil will have only a brief reign before I will vanquish Satan, the Antichrist, and all the demons and evil people, and cast this lot into hell. Just as you are anticipating Christmas during Advent, you are also anticipating My coming on the clouds to usher in My Era of Peace.
Monday, November 30, 2009: (St. Andrew)
Jesus said: My people, in today’s Gospel I was calling My apostles, who were fishermen, and I told them that from now on they would be fishers of men.
My call is not limited to My apostles. I call many young men to be priests, and I call My lay apostolates to all be evangelists of My Gospel to bring My Word to all the nations. Through My faithful I want everyone in the world to at least have the opportunity to hear My Word and be saved. The more souls that you can bring to Me are the more souls that can be saved from hell.
You are in a battle for souls, and do not cease struggling to bring as many souls as possible to My salvation of them. You have been given the gift of faith through your parents or friends, so pass on this gift of faith to others so they can enjoy the same love relationship with Me as you have.
Jesus said: My people, ever since Adam and Eve were cast out of the Garden of Eden, men and women had to work by the sweat of their brow to feed themselves and provide for their clothing and shelter. Except for the elderly, young children, the unemployed, and those with disabilities, everyone else is expected to keep a job and pay for their own bills.
As more manufacturing jobs are shipped overseas to cheap labor, your people can only find cheaper jobs, and your standard of living has declined as a result. There is a lot of unfairness in your society, but most people are able to survive on their wages. It is unfortunate that your job losses and lack of benefits are desired by your corporations on Wall Street.
Labor costs are always the target against the worker, instead of cutting the high salaries and bonuses of your executives. Those, who are stealing money from their workers, will have to pay for this abuse at their judgment. Because of your low wages many of your workers need two or three jobs per family in order to pay their bills. Trust and have faith in Me that I will see to your essential needs, but do not focus only on amassing this world ‘s possessions and wealth. Live to follow My ways, and help your neighbor when you can.
Tuesday, December 1, 2009
Jesus said: My people, you are preparing for Christmas, but you are also waiting in anticipation of My Warning and My Era of Peace. Christmas is a memorial of My birth many years ago.
This vision of a bicycle wheel spinning rapidly is a sign of the events of your life review that you will see in your Warning experience. This illumination of conscience will be an opportunity for grace and a time to change your life closer to how I want you to live. Once you see your sins as I see them, then you will have a desire to repent and change your sinful habits.
This view from Isaiah in the first reading is a preview of My Era of Peace, once I have conquered evil and have renewed the earth. Rejoice as you look forward to these events that will prepare you for the tribulation, and show you My perfected world after My victory in My Era of Peace.

Medjugorje Day By Day Jan 01 - SOLEMNITY OF MARY, MOTHER OF GOD
And on New Year's Day in 1987, she said:
Dear children, today, the first day of the New Year, I invite all of you to live the messages which I give you. You know, dear children, that because of you, I have stayed here this long in order to teach you to walk on the road to holiness.
Our Lady has asked that we help spread Her messages!
Lets renew our commitment to help Our Lady in this new year.
Saturday, Solemnity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God
& World Day of Peace—Jan. 1:
"In the womb of His [Jesus] Mother His rest was secret, unfelt, unseen, making all who would live in Him into Himself . . . . He is as silent, as secret and hidden, in the Host as He was in Advent . . . He trusts himself to His creatures in the Host as He trusted himself to Our Lady" (Caryll Houselander).
Sunday, Solemnity of the Epiphany of the Lord—Jan. 2:
"`They fell down and worshipped Him' (Mt 2:11). While the Magi acknowledged and worshipped the baby that Mary cradled in her arms as the One awaited by the nations and foretold by prophets, today we can also worship Him in the Eucharist, and acknowledge Him as our Creator, our only Lord and Savior" (Pope John Paul II, August 6, 2004).
Monday, Most Holy Name of Jesus—Jan. 3:
"All the nations shall come to adore You and glorify Your name, O Lord" (Ps 86:9).
Mother Teresa -
We must give Jesus absolute reign in our homes. Once we have Jesus with us, then we can give Him to others.
Meditations by Padre Pio -
Through Divine Grace we are at the beginning of a new year. God alone knows whether we shall reach the end of it, so we should spend it in reparation for the past and in preparing for the future with good resolutions. Good works go hand in hand with good intentions.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
Justification is judged by God's standards, not ours!
"The justification for cutting corners, taking bribes and other forms of dishonesty is twofold. First is, "Everybody's doing it." The assumption here is that right and wrong are questions merely of mob judgment, rather than of standards. It forgets that right is right if nobody is right, and wrong is wrong if everybody is wrong."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
When I was left alone with the Blessed Virgin, she instructed me concerning the interior life. She said, The soul's true greatness is in loving God and in humbling oneself in His presence, completely forgetting oneself and believing oneself to be nothing; because the Lord is great, but He is well-pleased only with the humble, He always opposes the proud. (1711)
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.
Jan 1 - SOLEMNITY OF MARY, MOTHER OF GOD
In October of 1981, the Blessed Virgin gave the following message:
I am the Mother of God and the Queen of Peace (First Years Oct 12, 1981).
And on New Year's Day in 1987, she said:
Dear children, today, the first day of the New Year, I invite all of you to live the messages which I give you. You know, dear children, that because of you, I have stayed here this long in order to teach you to walk on the road to holiness.
Therefore, dear children, pray without ceasing and live the messages I am giving you, for I do it with great love towards God and you. (Weekly Message January 1, 1987).
Living anew the messages during the New Years speaks of fresh beginnings. From Paul's letter to the Colossians:
You have stripped off the old self with its practices and have clothed yourselves with the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge according to the image of its creator (Col. 3:9-10),
And from 2 Corinthians:
So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; see, everything has become new (2 Cor 5:17).
Reflection:
It's appropriate that on this New Year's Day, Our Lady calls us to live her messages anew, for she knows they are the key to the spiritual gifts we so desire, an abiding peace and happiness, a spirit of love.
Living the messages of prayer, peace, penance, and fasting means, as St. Paul says today, to be formed anew in the image of the Creator over time. It means a new perspective, a new attitude toward life and death, where, as Revelation says, "He shall wipe every tear from their eyes", and make all things new.
On this feast of Mary, the Mother of God, let us recommit ourselves to her messages and her plan of salvation, which she is giving us, as she says today, "with great love towards God". In the words of the poet Joseph Krauskoph:
Dawns another year,
Open it aright;
Thou shalt have no fear
In its fading light.
Application:
Today, offer Our Lady a special prayer of commitment to living her messages in this new year. If you have difficulty in living some particular message, ask for the special grace you need to practice it in the year ahead.
This is also the World Day of Prayer for Peace. Offer a rosary for this special intention which Mary emphasizes so much in Medjugorje.
Medjugorje Day By Day Dec 31 - WHEN YOU HEAR THE BELLS AT MIDNIGHT
At the same time, to another of the little seers in Jelena's prayer group, Jesus said the following:
When you hear the bells at midnight, you shall fall on your knees, bow your head to the ground, so that the King of Peace will come.
"Called to continue before the Most Blessed Sacrament the Magi's adoration
at the Crib of Bethlehem, we ought to make ours the thought and love which
guided and sustained them. They began at Bethlehem what we are doing in the
presence of the Sacred Host . . . .
"The adoration of the Magi was a homage of faith and a tribute of love to
the Incarnate Word; such ought to be our Eucharistic adoration . . . .
"How fortunate we are to be able to share, through the Eucharist, the
happiness of Mary, of the Magi, and of the first disciples who offered gifts to
Jesus Christ! In the Eucharist we still have the poverty of Bethlehem to
relieve.
Oh! Yes! All the good things of grace and of glory come to us through
the divine Eucharist. Their fountainhead is at Bethlehem, which became a
heaven of love; they gathered volume all through the life of the Savior; and all
these rivers of grace, virtue, and merit empty into the ocean of this adorable
Sacrament, in which we possess them in all their fullness . . . .
"The Magi are our models, the first adorers. Let us be worthy of their
royal faith in Jesus Christ. Let us be heirs to their love, and one day we
will be heirs to their glory. Amen" (St. Peter Julian Eymard).
"Evil is not something superhuman, it's something less than human."
Mother Teresa - There are so many little things we can do for others that are so small many people forget about them.
But these aren't small things.
They show our love for Christ.
Meditations by Padre Pio -
The palm of victory is reserved only for those who fight up to the end. Therefore let us begin this year our Holy battle. God will assist us and crown us with eternal triumph.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
The animalistic nature of passion
"Passion has its seat in the body or the animal nature of man. It is the echo of the knowledge in our physical structure but it is not knowledge. Passion implies sensible changes, such as the flushing of the cheeks, the dilating of the pupils and the tensing of many of the muscles."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
A vision of the Mother of God. In the midst of a great brilliance, I saw the Mother of God clothed in a white gown, girt about with a golden cincture; and there were tiny stars, also of gold, over the whole garment, and chevron-shaped sleeves lined with gold.
Her cloak was sky-blue, lightly thrown over the shoulders. A transparent veil was delicately drawn over her head, while her flowing hair was set off beautifully by a golden crown which terminated in little crosses. On her left arm she held the Child Jesus. A Blessed Mother of this type I had not yet seen. Then she looked at me kindly and said: I am the Mother of God of Priests.
At that, she lowered Jesus from her arm to the ground, raised her right hand heavenward and said: O God, bless Poland, bless priests. Then she addressed me once again: Tell the priests what you have seen. I resolved that at the first opportunity [I would have] of seeing Father [Andrasz] I would tell; but I myself can make nothing of this vision. (1585)
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.
Dec 31 - WHEN YOU HEAR THE BELLS AT MIDNIGHT
The Mother of God speaks of peace in the new year:
Next year will be a year of peace not because men have named it so but because God has planned it. You will not have peace through presidents, but through prayer (Locutionist Jelena & Mirjana Dec 31, 1985)
At the same time, to another of the little seers in Jelena's prayer group, Jesus said the following:
When you hear the bells at midnight, you shall fall on your knees, bow your head to the ground, so that the King of Peace will come. This year I will offer my peace to the world. But afterwards, I will ask where you were when I offered it (Locutionist Jelena & Mirjana Dec 31, 1985).
Five years later, on New Year's Eve in 1990, the Gospa said to Ivan's prayer group:
Dear children, tonight your Mother invites you to go together with me to the church in joy and prayerfulness (there was a special Mass at 11:30 p.m.) In tonight's special joy, pray in church for the intention of peace (Visionary Prayer Group Dec 31, 1990).
And in Romans, Paul echoes the Virgin's call to peace:
For the kingdom of God is not food and drink but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. The one who thus serves Christ is acceptable to God and has human approval. Let us then pursue what makes for peace and for mutual upbuilding (Rom 14:17-19).
Reflection:
The Queen of Peace fittingly closes the year with a call to peace. This has always been her central message, the primary reason for her apparitions in Medjugorje. And, with the prayers of her children, what wonders she has achieved! The fall of the Berlin Wall, the liberation of Eastern Europe, the collapse of Communism, the rebirth of the Russian republics, the rise of both democracy and the philosophy of human rights.
A new age of peace has dawned "not through the presidents, but through prayer". All of us who have helped Our Lady through prayer, fasting, and sacrifice; all of us who have tried to live her messages; all of us who have believed in her and trusted her we too have had a part in ushering in this new age.
In decades to come historians will puzzle over the cataclysmic events of the 1980's and 90's, trying to figure out how it all could have happened. And most will be unaware that it was the work of a young maiden on a hillside in Yugoslavia, who wept for peace. Gathering the faithful from every land, she worked miracles. She continues to this day.
Application:
On New Year's Eve in 1985, Jesus said, "When you hear the bells at midnight, you will fall on your knees, bow your head to the ground, so that the King of Peace will come". Let us live that message tonight.
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!
