“This time is a turning point”

Dear Family of Mary!

“This time is a turning point. That is why I am calling you anew to faith and hope. I am showing you the way by which you need to go, and those are the words of the Gospel…”

Our Lady tells us that the time we are in right now, our present moment, is a “turning point.” There is something important going on right now. I thought it would help to examine the meaning of “turning point”, at least in English. The translators chose it purposefully.

Here are four definitions that I found helpful:

“A point at which a significant change occurs” (Merriam-Webster).

Notice that it is a “significant” change, something important, something pivotal.

“The time at which a situation starts to change in an important way” (Dictionary.com).

Again, we see that it is an important change that occurs at a turning point.

“A turning point is a specific, significant moment when something begins to change” (Vocabulary.com). This meaning suggests that we can look back in history and mark a specific moment when our life changed, or a nation changed, etc. Like the day you met your best friend. I like this definition, as it gives us the perspective needed. We won’t know what change has been initiated until time has passed. But our actions now are important.

“A time at which a decisive change in a situation occurs, especially one with beneficial results” (Oxford Dictionary). Now this is the definition that caught my attention. Not only is the change decisive, it is beneficial. A turning point involves a moment when something changes for the better!

From Our Lady’s view point, she sees a great deal more than we do. She knows the spiritual forces at work, and she knows the human factors involved. Whatever is changing, we need to follow her advice at this moment, this decisive moment. We will only understand later. Now is the time to trust her guidance and follow her lead.

So what does she tell us to do? What is her advice? She calls us to build up our faith and our hope. This is no time to become despondent or depressed. We need to wake up our hearts to her call, and believe in her Son with all our hearts. And where should we go? We should go the way of all the saints of our Christian history, we should live the words of Jesus, the words of the Gospel. Jesus is the Way. We have to follow in His footsteps.

No matter what change takes place, this will always be the best response. Maybe we will be positive forces in this moment, this turning point, if we follow Our Lady’s call. Maybe we will influence this turning point by our love, our hope, our faith, our fidelity to Jesus. It is certain that our prayer will make a difference. So together, let’s respond to Our Lady’s call at this turning point!

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

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 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!
