St. Joseph, protector of the Holy Family!

St. Joseph, pray for us!

St. John BoscoDear Family of Mary!

Fr. Maximilian has been guiding us spiritually through the English Mass in Medjugorje during this time when Fr. Leon has been called away. I have transcribed Fr. Maximilian’s opening remarks before Mass on January 30, 2019. I feel that Fr. Max has hit upon a very important aspect of God’s plan at this time in Medjugorje. That aspect is the role of St. Joseph!

Denis and I have been entrusting Mary TV to St. Joseph in a special way for a long time (especially through Br. Andre Bessette). And St. Joseph has done many incredible miracles for Mary TV. But I never understood the important role that St. Joseph has for Medjugorje until I heard Fr. Max speak yesterday.

See what you think!

English Mass in Medjugorje – January 30, 2019

Fr. Maximilian Dalve’s opening remarks…

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, AMEN.

In the grace of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, our Mother, be with you all! Amen.

We just sang “Laudato si” which is a song that comes forth from the words of St. Francis. He praised the Lord for the beauty of creation. We all know this prayer of St. Francis and we should do that prayer in the morning, singing songs of praise that our life may become a song of praise. And giving thanks is always the very best prayer to make. In the morning, one of the visionaries, Vicka, said it is the prayer that ties us to God because it is an act of love. To recognize the love of God and the beauty of his love in all things, all happenings, in all creation.

So now we are gathered around the altar of the Lord to celebrate the redemption of all creation. The redemption of each one of us. Holy Mass is full of wonder, full of awe which we will never be able to understand as Mary has said in her messages.

Today, Wednesday, we want to celebrate in honor of St. Joseph, for he is a hidden saint who we have to discover. Because God entrusted to him the greatest treasures, His Son who yesterday in the Gospel told us that we can all become His brother, sister, even mother! So, He invites us to become even Mary. But He never said to anyone, become my father. The father is only God the Father! But Jesus called, as we know, when He was a little child and He looked at Joseph, He called him “Abba” – Father!

What did He see in the face of Joseph? What was the feeling of Joseph when he heard the Son of God calling him “father”? His humility, his virtues…if we could get some of his virtues. But he wants to give them to us.

And who was closer, besides Jesus, to Mary than Joseph himself? Because he had the sacrament of marriage with Mary! So, he knows Mary! He protected Jesus and Mary several times. You know in the Gospel. And therefore, Mary here together with her Son Jesus, is making an incredible work of evangelization for mankind, for the world. There are saving plans for the whole world here in Medjugorje! So, we have to entrust Medjugorje to St. Joseph!

We have to understand that this is an important step to take, so that he may protect and guide as a father, in the father role. We should especially pray every day for Archbishop Henryk Hoser. He is the bishop that the Holy Father has entrusted Medjugorje to, that he may be enlightened, that he may always be as wise as St. Joseph, and he will protect the creature of Mary in a certain way because she is working here most extraordinarily.

So, let’s call upon St. Joseph as he was introduced into the mystery of God like no one else, and he had such an important role to play that if he would have failed, the whole history of redemption would have stopped, would not have been accomplished. His role was so important!!

But now Mary says, “Your role! You can’t imagine the greatness of your role!” Therefore, she calls us to collaborate with her totally. To give ourselves totally into her hands. To be docile to the Holy Spirit, who wants to guide us into prayer on the way of holiness. Into oneness with Christ.

Therefore, let us call upon Him right in the beginning of Holy Mass, as we do always. For without Him there is nothing good that we can do. Nothing good in the sense of how God understands good. That perfection to which He calls us.

Come, Holy Spirit, come in my heart. Sweet Holy Spirit, fill with your love….
Come, Holy Spirit, come in my heart. Sweet Holy Spirit, fill with your love….
Alleluia, Alleluia…. Alleluia, Alleluia. (Fr. Maximilian Dalva)

Thank you, Fr. Max. Your words have ignited a fire! I feel the deep need for St. Joseph now, in every aspect of my life, and especially in the work of Mary TV.

Dear St. Joseph, guide us and protect us, intercede for us and watch over us as we serve Our Lady in her plans in Medjugorje. May we be only and always a help to her.

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!
