Thank you, Dearest Mother, for the Youth Festival

The Transfiguration of the Lord

Dear Family of Mary!

In the wee hours of the morning the young people will climb Cross Mountain and gather around the Cross for Holy Mass with the priests! Today is the Feast of the Transfiguration of the Lord! What a fitting ending to the Youth Festival! They will be with Jesus on a mountain, just as Peter, James and John were with Him on a mountain so many years ago. They will carry all their beautiful memories from the Festival with them, pondering them in their hearts. They will experience Jesus, in the Holy Mass, very much like the Apostles experienced Him on that mountain, transfigured! This is a moment of deep transformation for the young people.

As we all look back over these 6 days of prayer, teaching, testimony and Holy Masses, we will discover many signal graces for each one of us! Let’s pray for the young people in a special way, that as they re-enter their normal lives, they will find themselves changed! They will find themselves new and reborn in the Holy Spirit! They are carrying in them the seeds of resurrection! They may very well change the world!

I want to write a short litany of thanksgiving as we end this Youth Festival, one that we can pray together. There is so much to be thankful for!!

Litany of Thanksgiving for the Medjugorje Youth Festival 2024!

As we all travel home and re-enter our lives, we want to thank You, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, for all the graces you have poured out upon us during the extraordinary Medjugorje Youth Festival. 2024:

We thank You dearest Lord, that we could travel so far the take part in this holy event!

We thank You dearest Lord, that if we couldn’t travel, we could still attend the Festival through Mary TV or the Parish web site.

We thank You, Lord, for all the speakers who taught us, shared with us, witnessed their conversions and the graces received in Medjugorje. and showed us such love.

We thank You. Lord, for all the priests who heard our confessions, concelebrated Holy Mass, prayed over us, and guided us over these six days.

We thank You, Lord, for all the speakers who told us about their lives, their conversions, their sufferings, and their victories won through Our Lady’s special care!

We thank You, Lord, for all the priests, nuns, and brothers who worked tirelessly to provide everything we needed to pray together, sing and dance together, receive communion, and all the other blessings we received.

We thank You, Lord, for the musicians who did such a fantastic job of lifting our hearts in song, and communicating the presence of God in their music.

We thank You Lord, for all the cameramen, studio staff, internet connections, and the equipment necessary to stream the whole event, flawlessly, and with such expert care.

We thank You, Lord, for all the wonderful people we met during the festival, from so many different countries!

And we thank Our Lady for praying for each one of us, for holding each one of us in Her arms, loving us and pouring out graces upon us. We are changed by Her Love. Amen!

There is certainly much more to give thanks for, so carry on with this prayer!!

We all know that it was Our Lady’s presence that made this Festival so beautiful and full of grace! But she is very quiet. She doesn’t ask for attention. She only prays for us constantly, and protects us from our enemy, so that we can prosper and be healed. So let’s thank her with all our hearts, and move forward in our lived holding her hand!!

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!
