October 5, 2016

October 5, 2016 St. Maria Faustina Kowalska Dear Family of Mary TV, In her autobiography, “My Heart Will Triumph”, Medjugorje visionary Mirjana Soldo says, “I cannot divulge much more about the secrets, but I can say this – Our Lady is planning to change the world,” (p. 142). And she’s using you! No saints in the past ever had this said to them: “God has chosen each one of you in order to use you for the great plan of salvation of mankind. You cannot comprehend how great your role is in God’s plan. Therefore, dear children, pray, so that through prayer you might comprehend God’s plan through you. I am with you so that you can realize it completely!”(January 25, 1987, Our Lady’s first monthly message). I believe she’s accomplishing her plan through her children who don’t stop trying to respond to her call, particularly her children coming to Medjugorje: “My Son promised me that evil will never win, because you, the souls of the just, are here!”(November 2, 2014). In her 35th Anniversary message Our Lady told us: “Give thanks to God with me for the gift of my being with you… Persevere in prayer so that, with you, I can realize my plans!” (June 25, 2016). It’s given to Our Lady to crush Satan’s head. Today through Medjugorje that promise, made in Genesis 3:15, is being fulfilled through Revelations 12…where Our Lady comes, as she does every day in Medjugorje, with a crown of 12 stars. She’s told us in her messages, “This time is my time!” (January 25, 1997). Mary tells us, “Satan wants to destroy my plan,” and she tells her apostles to“be strong and resolute!” (August 25, 2011). IMPORTANT: Mary TV needs intercessory prayer. For three days now we’ve had the most incredible testimony ready to air. It was schedule to air last Monday night in “Fruit of Medjugorje” episode #234, https://marytv.tv/?page_id=167…A mother and her son give witness to an extraordinary miracle they just experienced in Medjugorje….   Though the program was finished at Noon on Sunday, for an inexplicable reason it still won’t export from the computer.   This has never happened before. Experts have looked at the problem and can’t figure it out. Everything points to only one explanation: the enemy is terrified of people believing what Our Lady just told us in her July 2nd message: “Trust in my Son because He will do for you what you would not even know how to ask for!” Pray this program airs and the enemy can’t block what Our Lady wants to be doing through Mary TV! Mirjana’s October 2nd apparition can still be viewed on Mary TV’s web site:https://marytv.tv/?page_id=334 Our Lady’s September 27 apparition to Ivan in Vienna’s St. Stephens Cathedral, which was streamed Live by Mary TV, can still be viewed at https://marytv.tv/?page_id=624  It was a beautiful time of witnessing the grace of Our Lady’s presence in Medjugore (as Medjugorje evenings of prayer always are) …. To read Ivan’s account of Our Lady’s apparition, and the message she gave, go to https://marytv.tv/?cat=4 Our Lady’s children in 73 countries (just through Mary TV’s Live streaming alone) were present through the internet. Thousands of Our Lady’s children in: United States United Kingdom Italy Canada Ireland Spain Australia Bosnia & Herzegovina Austria Mexico Belgium Gibraltar Lebanon France Germany Poland Argentina Brazil Portugal Panama South Africa Romania Colombia Netherlands Trinidad & Tobago Malta Croatia Singapore Slovakia United Arab Emirates Czech Republic Japan Slovenia Norway Denmark Hungary Peru Philippines Latvia Malaysia India Israel Switzerland Hong Kong Kuwait Puerto Rico Réunion Chile Costa Rica Ecuador Greece Indonesia Lithuania Moldova Nigeria Guatemala Mauritius Russia South Korea Sri Lanka St. Lucia Sweden Ukraine Venezuela (not set) Bahamas Bangladesh Bolivia El Salvador Malawi Nicaragua Oman Uruguay Zambia Thank you for your prayers and financial support.

St. Faustina, pray for us!

  (c)Mateo Ivankovic 2016 JMJ October 5, 2016 St. Maria Faustina Kowalska Dear Family of Mary! Today is the feast day of a very special saint, Saint Faustina! She is the saint of Divine Mercy, and because of her great fidelity to Jesus, and His call to her, the Feast of Divine Mercy now exists in the Church on the Sunday after Easter. And the entire Church has learned from her the great mystery of the Mercy of God in a fresh way. So much so that we find ourselves now in “The Jubilee Year of Mercy” instituted by Pope Francis. This year has been a tidal wave of mercy, a time to immerse ourselves in the great mystery of God’s mercy for us, and the beautiful call to be mercy for others. St. Faustina had a beautiful relationship with Our Lady. She understood Our Lady as her mother very personally. When I read the first part of the October 2, 2016 message, I thought of St. Faustina and her relationship with Mary. Here is the first part of the message: “Dear children, the Holy Spirit, according to the Heavenly Father, made me the mother – the mother of Jesus – and by this alone, also your mother. That is why I am coming to hear you, that I may open my motherly arms to you; to give you my heart and to call you to remain with me, because from the top of the cross my Son entrusted you to me…” (October 2, 2016) Our Lady longs to draw us into her embrace and give us her heart, to be our mother. St. Faustina experienced Our Lady’s desire to embrace her and love her in a similar way: Immaculate Conception of the Mother of God. From early morning, I felt the nearness of the Blessed Mother. During Holy Mass, I saw Her, so lovely and so beautiful that I have no words to express even a small part of this beauty. She was all [in] white, with a blue sash around Her waist. Her cloak was also blue, and there was a crown on Her head. Marvelous light streamed forth from Her whole figure. I am the Queen of heaven and earth, but especially the Mother of your [Congregation]. She pressed me to Her heart and said, I feel constant compassion for you. I felt the force of Her Immaculate Heart which was communicated to my soul. Now I understand why I have been preparing for this feast for two months and have been looking forward to it with such yearning. From today onwards, I am going to strive for the greatest purity of soul, that the rays of God’s grace may be reflected in all their brilliance. I long to be a crystal in order to find favor in His eyes. (805, Diary of St. Maria Faustina Kowalska) May we all feel the “force of Her Immaculate Heart…communicated to [our] soul[s]!” Her motherly love is essential to our lives. With Our Lady’s love we too can strive for the greatest purity of soul! Her love will help us to grow in love for her Son. St. Faustina, pray for us! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
