June 15, 2022 Reflection – Anniversary Novena, Day 1
(The Parish climbs Apparition Hill for 9 days before the Anniversary) Anniversary Novena, Day 1 June 15, 2022 Dear Family of Mary! We begin the Novena for the 41st Anniversary today! I will offer one or two messages each day, and a prayer. May we draw close to Our Lady during this time. Her presence is our hope and joy in these days! Our Lady said to us on the 40th Anniversary: “Dear children! My heart is joyful because through these years I see your love and openness to my call. Today I am calling all of you: pray with me for peace and freedom, because Satan is strong and by his deception, wants to lead away all the more hearts from my motherly heart. That is why decide for God so that it may be good for you on the earth which God gave you. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (June 25, 2021) Dearest Mother, we do believe that God is sending you to save us from Satan, who wants to deceive all the more souls and lead them away from your motherly heart. We want to help you in every way we can. May we pray with you for Peace and Freedom and live a total consecration to you, dearest Mother! How to Give Oneself to Mary, Mother of Goodness, of Love and of Mercy (Given by Our Lady to Jelena Vasilj, 4/19/1984) Oh my Mother! Mother of goodness, love and mercy! I love you immensely, and I offer myself to you. Through your goodness, your love, And your mercy, save me! I wish to be yours. I love you immensely And I wish that you protect me. In my heart, oh mother of goodness, Give me your goodness, So that I go to Heaven. I ask you for your immense love That you may give me the grace That I will be able to love each one Just like you loved Jesus Christ. I ask you in grace That I be able to be merciful* to you. I offer myself completely to you And I wish that you will be with me at each step, Because you are full of grace. I wish never to forget your grace, And if I should lose it, I will ask, make me find it again. Amen. In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2022 P.S.
