Pray for those who do not know the love of Jesus!

St. John Damascene

Dear Family of Mary!

“…Therefore, apostles of my love, pray for those who do not know how to love, for those who do not love you, for those who have done evil to you, for those who have not come to know the love of my Son. My children, I ask this of you because, remember, to pray means to love and to forgive…” (December 2, 2017)

These are the final words of Our Lady’s December 2, 2017 message. They struck me deeply. Here we are at the very beginning of Advent. It is a special time of year, when we learn again to await the coming of the Messiah. We wait with all the patriarchs and prophets, all the holy men and women who believed God would send the Anointed One to save them. We wait with them with expectant faith for the coming of Him who will come at the end of ends.

And we wait with Our Lady, as she carried Jesus in her womb, as she traveled to Bethlehem, as she waited to give birth to Jesus, the long awaited One.

I feel that Our Lady is asking us as a prayer group to take on one of the things she is interceding for in this time of waiting. She has asked us many times to pray for “Those who have not come to know the love of Jesus.” These souls are the source of so much sorrow for Our Lady. She prays for them constantly, that they will open up to the love of Jesus, and find peace. I believe Our Lady wants us to join her in this intercession during Advent, as a special work of mercy.

It just struck me that maybe we could help Our Lady. I felt this very strongly on Saturday (Dec 2). And then on Sunday (Dec 3) I received a remarkable email from Patty, one of our shipmates, in which she shares something she received in prayer from Jesus that confirms our call to intercede for those who have not come to know the love of Jesus. Patty wrote:

I want to share the words I heard from Jesus today because I think it flows from this message to all of us.
“I invite you with all seriousness to walk with my Mother this Advent. Every day. Every night. Every moment. Do not leave her side. You need each other. Does this surprise you? My Mother needs you; her journey is a very difficult one. She desires to give birth in the heart of every person. And, while many refuse her, she remains in their midst.
You be with her. Comfort her as she waits to give birth to My Presence in each person’s life.
Be her messenger. Go out and tell each person about her, especially go to those whose lives are too full but also empty. They do have room for her! Ask them if she might come and stay and give birth.
It is necessary to travel with her though. You become like those with whom you journey. I am inviting you: Travel with my pregnant Mother this Advent. Remember the limits of time and space do not exist with us. You are being asked to be with her as she and Joseph travel to the place of my birth. Accompany us.”
I wish I could convey the message as I heard it and saw it. It was not a symbolic invitation. It is a mystical invitation to actually journey with Mary and Joseph on the road to Bethlehem, through the towns, to the stable. Every moment this journey, this focus…. Peace in, with, and through Jesus and Mary, Patty

I find this image of staying close to Mary, traveling with her, staying in her company, praying with her for those who do not know Jesus, to be very compelling. I believe it is a precious call from Jesus to help Our Lady as she seeks out those who need Jesus to be born in their hearts.

May we walk with our Mother, comforting her, easing her pain and strengthening her prayer with our own, so that many, many souls will open the doors of their hearts and let Jesus be born in them.

In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

“Medjugorje is the spiritual center of the world!”

Pope St. John Paul II – February 24, 1990

“Dear children, my real, living presence among you should make you happy because this is the great love of my Son. He is sending me among you so that, with a motherly love, I may grant you safety!”

Our Lady of Medjugorje – July 2, 2016

“Rejoice, little children, because God is merciful and loves you all with His immeasurable love and leads you to the way of salvation through my coming here!”

Our Lady of Medjugorje – June 25, 2018

“My Son promised me that evil will never win, because you, the souls of the just, are here!”

Our Lady Speaks

Vicka's Note MaryTV

Vicka, one of the visionaries in Medjugorje, wrote the note (above) after Our Lady spoke with her during an apparition in Medjugorje in April, 1999, about Mary TV’s  plan to build a television facility in Medjugorje.

Vicka wrote to Denis: “Our Lady says that the plan is good – but you need to wait a little.  Now you can get prepared little by little, until Our Lady tells when the right moment is.  You don’t need to hurry, make haste, but to be patient.”

When Our Lady said this to Vicka, the technical genius in Medjugorje that she had her eyes upon, who would begin Mary TV’s live streaming from Medjugorje, was seven years old.

Totus Tuus (Totally Yours)

Immaculate Conception, Mary my Mother, Live in me, Act in me, Speak in me and through me, Think your thoughts in my mind, Love through my heart, Give me your dispositions and feelings, Teach, lead me and guide me to Jesus, Correct, enlighten and expand my thoughts and behavior, Possess my soul, Take over my entire personality and life, replace it with Yourself, Incline me to constant adoration, Pray in me and through me, Let me live in you and keep me in this union always.

Our Lady gave this prayer 25 years before She started appearing in Medjugorje. This prayer is being answered through Our Lady’s presence in Medjugorje and through Her messages. Mother Immaculata writes: “This is Mary’s hour and She is about to crush Satan’s head. Her very being is like incandescent heat in the center of the Trinity and the manifestation of Her power is growing daily. The Immaculate Conception prayer (which is what Our Lady called the prayer she gave me for union with Her) has been used by exorcists who have told me that the devil reacts violently to it and is subdued by it. We are praying daily for the success of Mary TV!“

Our Lady Gives A Sign…

Mary_with_Sun

MARY TV was LIVE STREAMING Ivan’s May 24, 2013 apparition on Mt. Podbrdo (Apparition Hill) in Medjugorje. My wife, Cathy, was praying in front of her computer in the US, connected through the Internet, welcoming Our Lady along with everyone gathered on the mountain. She couldn’t see anything on her computer screen because it was late at night and Ivan had said, “No lights.” She found herself asking Our Lady for a sign – a little light – as a sign that MARY TV was on the right track and really serving her. Just after the apparition, when she went to give an account on Mary TV’s Facebook page, the page opened with this picture that she had never seen before, captioned: “MARY APPEARS OVER BUILDING IN MEDJUGORJE, PHOTO TAKEN BY PILGRIM.” Our Lady is standing directly over MARY TV’s studios, her feet right where we have two POV cameras STREAMING 24/7 LIVE TO THE WORLD Apparition Hill & Cross Mountain!

ASK JESUS IF HE’D LIKE YOU TO START SENDING A MONTHLY DONATION TO MARY TV.
TO CONTINUE SAILING WITH OUR LADY UPON THE DIGITAL SEA THIS BOAT NEEDS FINANCIAL HELP.

Our Lady spoke to Vicka during an apparition in Medjugorje in April, 1999, about the importance of Mary TV’s mission. At that time she told Vicka that she herself (Our Lady) would begin Mary TV! She did! But she didn’t do it alone. The generosity of her children made Mary TV a reality for her. Your generosity is needed now for it to continue!
