With God you have a future… July 24, 2025 St Sharbel Makhluf Dear Family of Mary! Tomorrow Our Lady will give Marija the monthly message!! It is such a grace to have the monthly message because Our Lady can lead us gently but firmly forward into the future. We have receieved monthly messages now since January 25, 1987! It has been 38 years!! For many of us (those born after 1987) it has been for their entire lives!! How blessed is that!! And these messages have a purpose. She told us in the first monthly message: January 25, 1987 The first apparition of the 25th of the month, given to Marija, for the parish: “Today I want to appeal to all of you to start living a new life from this day on. Dear children, I wish that you would understand that God has chosen each one of you to have a part in the great plan for the salvation of mankind. You cannot fully understand how great your role is in God’s design. For that reason, pray, dear children, so that through prayer, you may be able to know your role in God’s plan. I am with you, so that you may be able to realize it fully.” This message was so serious, so powerful, so prophetic, that we didn’t know how to respond to it right away!! Our Lady gave us a commission that came from God the Father. “Dear children, I wish that you would understand that God has chosen each one of you to have a part in the great plan for the salvation of mankind.” Wow! We were astounded! I am still astounded!! Each one of us has a part in God’s plan of salvation of mankind!! (She means all of us, no matter when we first connected with Medjugorje!) But she continued: “You cannot fully understand how great your role is in God’s design.” I am so grateful to told us that we could not understand how great our role is in God’s design. Her words gave us solid ground to stand on. We can’t know everything God is doing. We must wait on God! Then she said: “For that reason, pray, dear children, so that through prayer, you may be able to know your role in God’s plan.” How simple and how appropriate this advice was and is! Only through prayer will I know the role that God has for me now in this incredible plan to save mankind! And the best part: “I am with you, so that you may be able to realize it fully.” Our Lady declared her presence with us! She would stay with us, to help us understand how we fit into the plan, and then how to do it!! She, herself, would lead us forward. I believe that now, 38 years later, we are still being led by Our Lady, and the work is not finished. In some ways it is only really beginning! But she has not left us. And we are all doing our part, as best we can. God will not leave humanity alone in these very difficult days. Our Lady will lead us! The message we received in June of this year shows how Our Lady is leading us. She warns us of our dangers, and calls us to the future, to eternal life even today. She keeps our eyes on the prize, and our feet on the ground: June 25, 2025 “Dear children, also today I thank the Almighty that I am with you and that I can lead you towards the God of love and peace. The ideologies which destroy you and your spiritual life are transitory. I am calling you, little children: return to God, because with God you have a future and eternal life. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (With Ecclesiastical approval) Let’s again accept this message, as we await the message we will receive on Friday. We are still on the road to the future and eternal life!! And Our Lady is still with us!! That is good news! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

Today I wish to call you to pray, pray, pray! In prayer you shall perceive the greatest joy and the way out of every situation that has no exit. Thank you for starting up prayer. Each individual is dear to my heart. And I thank all who have urged prayer in their families. Thank you for having responded to my call.” Amen and Amen!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

Say with all your heart: ‘My God, my all.’ July 22, 2025 Saint Mary Magdalene Dear Family of Mary! Today we honor and remember St. Mary Magdalene, who loved Jesus so very much. She loved Him so much that she couldn’t stay away from His tomb. She couldn’t stay away!! And she was one of the first to see the Risen Lord!! Her love was so strong! We need that kind of strong love for Jesus. We can’t make it up. We have to wait for Jesus to reveal Himself to us, so that our love will be awakened and emerge from our hearts on fire!! We want to love Jesus with that fire!!! Here are 5 messages in which Our Lady talks about loving Jesus with all our hearts! Let’s let her words ignite our hearts! November 25, 2012 “Dear children! In this time of grace, I call all of you to renew prayer. Open yourselves to Holy Confession so that each of you may accept my call with the whole heart. I am with you and I protect you from the ruin of sin, but you must open yourselves to the way of conversion and holiness, that your heart may burn out of love for God. Give Him time and He will give Himself to you and thus, in the will of God you will discover the love and the joy of living. Thank you for having responded to my call.” March 18, 2010 Several thousand pilgrims gathered in prayer of the Rosary at the Blue Cross. The apparition lasted from 1:50pm to 1:54pm. “Dear children! Today I call you to love with all your heart and with all your soul. Pray for the gift of love, because when the soul loves it calls my Son to itself. My Son does not refuse those who call Him and who desire to live according to Him. Pray for those who do not comprehend love, who do not understand what it means to love. Pray that God may be their Father and not their Judge. My children, you be my apostles, be my river of love. I need you. Thank you.” November 25, 2013 “Dear children! Today I call all of you to prayer. Open the doors of your heart profoundly to prayer, little children, to prayer with the heart; and then the Most High will be able to act upon your freedom and conversion will begin. Your faith will become firm so that you will be able to say with all your heart: ‘My God, my all.’ You will comprehend, little children, that here on earth everything is passing. Thank you for having responded to my call.” October 25, 1996 “Dear children! Today I invite you to open yourselves to God the Creator, so that He changes you. Little children, you are dear to me. I love you all and I call you to be closer to me and that your love towards my Immaculate Heart be more fervent. I wish to renew you and lead you with my Heart to the Heart of Jesus, which still today suffers for you and calls you to conversion and renewal. Through you, I wish to renew the world. Comprehend, little children, that you are today the salt of the earth and the light of the world. Little children, I invite you and I love you and in a special way implore: Convert!” Thank you for having responded to my call.” August 25, 2023 “Dear children! In this time of grace, I am calling you to prayer with the heart. May your hearts, little children, be raised in prayer towards Heaven, so that your heart may feel the God of love who heals you and loves you with immeasurable love. That is why I am with you, to lead you on the way of conversion of heart. Thank you for having responded to my call.” Dear St. Mary Magdalene! Please pray for us that we can open our hearts to Jesus, and learn to love with our entire selves. May we learn from you to love Jesus totally!!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

“Teacher, we wish to see a sign from you.”   July 21, 2025 Saint Lawrence of Brindisi Dear Family of Mary! God sends us many signs of His love for us. But we are so often hard-hearted, and unable to perceive those signs. As we read the Gospels, we hear of sign after sign which Jesus did publicly! Healings abounded, there was the multiplication of loaves and fish, and so many conversions happened to the most unlikely of people! And yet, in the Gospel for today, the Pharisees seem to be oblivious to these miracles, and ask for a sign. “Some of the scribes anad Pharisees said to Jesus, “Teacher, we wish to see a sign from you.” He said to them in reply, “An evil and unfaithful generation seeks a sign, but no sign will be given it except the sign of Jonah the prophet. Just as Jonah was in the belly of the whale three days and three nights, so will the Son of Man be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights. At the judgment, the men of Nineveh will arise with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and there is something greter than Jonah here. At the judgment the queen of the soulth will arise with this generation and condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and there is something greater than Solomon here.” (Mt. 12:38-42) To us, it sounds rediculous for the Pharaisees to be so blind to Jesus’ works. But we can be pretty blind ourselves in our day. Our own preconcieved notions can get in the way of our seeing what God is doing!! In this message below, Our Lady warns us of our own blindness to the graces of this time! And she offers us the cure! December 25, 2015 (Jakov) (The apparition began at 2:08 pm and lasted 10 minutes. Afterwards Jakov transmitted the message): Dear children! All these years that God permits me to be with you are a sign of the immeasurable love which God has for each one of you and a sign of how much God loves you. Little children, how many graces the Most High has given to you and how many graces he desires to give to you. But, little children, your hearts are closed and live in fear, and do not permit Jesus to have His love and His peace overcome your hearts and to begin to reign in your lives. To live without God means to live in darkness and never to come to know the Father’s love and His care for each of you. Therefore, little children, today in a special way pray to Jesus that as of today your life may experience a new birth in God and become a light which will radiate from within you, and thus that you may become witnesses of God’s presence in the world to every person who lives in darkness. Little children, I love you and daily intercede before the Most High for you. Thank you for having responded to my call. The Pharisees lived in fear. They saw Jesus as a threat to their positions of power over the people. And they let that fear blind them to the great works of mercy and love that Jesus was doing. Our Lady tells us that we too can live in fear and not permit Jesus to have His love and His peace overcome our hearts!! This is a tragedy. Today lets take her advice: “Therefore, little children, today in a special way pray to Jesus that as of today your life may experience a new birth in God and become a light which will radiate from within you, and thus that you may become witnesses of God’s presence in the world to every person who lives in darkness.” Yes, we will pray to Jesus for a new birth in God! We want to be lights that radiate and witness God’s presence in the world!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2025 www.marytv.tv P.S. Thank you to all who are supporting Mary TV!!

Little children, learn to give thanks…   July 18, 2025 St. Camillus de Lellis Dear Family of Mary! Our Lady tells us: October 3, 1985 “Dear children! I wish to tell you to thank God for all the graces which God has given you. For all the fruits thank the Lord and glorify him! Dear children, learn to give thanks in little things and then you will be able to give thanks also for the big things. Thank you for having responded to my call.” Let’s make this day into a day of giving thanks!! Let’s pray this Litany of Gratitude, and spend time thanking the Lord for everything we can think of!! This is a way to strengthen our faith, and to make God happy!! A Litany of Gratitude “…give thanks in all circumstances…” (1 Thessalonians 5:18) Lord, have mercy. Christ, have mercy. Lord, have mercy. Jesus, hear us. Jesus, graciously hear us. God the Father, have mercy on us. God the Son, have mercy on us. God the Holy Spirit, have mercy on us. For the gift of life, we thank You, Lord. For the gift of salvation, we thank You, Lord. For Your great mercy and forgiveness, we thank You, Lord. For every grace, we thank You, Lord. For the supernatural life in our souls, we thank You, Lord. For Your divine indwelling, we thank You, Lord. For eternal life with You, we thank You, Lord. For all virtues, we thank You, Lord. For our Baptism, we thank You, Lord. For our Confirmation, we thank You, Lord. For the Holy Eucharist, we thank You, Lord. For the sacrament of Confession, we thank You, Lord.

Fill us with Your love that we may pass it on to all those we meet. Amen. In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2025 www.marytv.tv P.S. Thank you to all who are supporting Mary TV!!

Come to me, all you who labor… July 17, 2025 Dear Family of Mary! Today’s Gospel: Matthew 11:28-30 Jesus said: “Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart: and you will find rest for yourselves. For my yoke is easy, and my burden light.” Jesus’ words to us are so very comforting and consoling. Who among us has not felt the weight of our burden, and the exhaustion of our labor. And isn’t it true that we can sometimes be our own terrible taskmaster, angrily forcing ourselves to overwork and lose hope? Our enemy also unleashes his own cohort of taskmasters, who drive us on with the lies they plant in our minds: You are lazy…You are stupid…You will never succeed… But Jesus calls us to drop all those yokes and to take His yoke upon ourselves instead. He wants us to train our hearts to hear His voice, and help us to renounce the enemy’s evil lies. We can let Jesus speak to our hearts, encouraging us to go forward, to not fear, to trust in the Father, to grow in hope, to be small and little under His loving care. In this way we will find rest for ourselves! Jesus’ yoke is easy and His burden light! Our Lady also encouraged us to let Jesus lead us: March 18, 2021 “Dear children, in a motherly way I am calling you to return to the joy and the truth of the Gospel, to return to the love of my Son – because He is waiting for you with open arms; that everything you do in life you do with my Son, with love; that it may be blessed for you; so that your spirituality may be internal, and not just external. Only in that way will you be humble, generous, filled with love and joyful; and my motherly heart will rejoice with you. Thank you.” The key is that… “everything you do in life, you do with my Son, with love!!” If we do everything in, with, and for Jesus, we will find rest for our souls. We will find peace for our hearts. And we will find joy forever! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2025 www.marytv.tv P.S. Thank you to all who are supporting Mary TV!!

I wish to clothe you in holiness, goodness, obedience and God’s love…   Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Dear Family of Mary! Today we celebrate Our Lady of Mt. Carmel! We remember that Our Lady came to St. Simon Stock and gave him the brown scapular, which even today is worn by her children all over the world. It is a sign of Mary’s protection and her motherly care for those who dedicate themselves to her. St. Simon Stock wrote: “O Mary, Flower of Carmel, Fruitful vine, splendor of heaven, who brought forth the Son of God yet remained a Virgin, sweet and Immaculate Mother, grant the favors your children implore, O Star of the Sea!” (Magnificat, P. 257, July 2025) Our Lady is with us even today, in Medjugorje, offering to us that same protection and care. She comes everyday, to comfort us, teach us, and call us to live our lives for Jesus. Here are two messages in which Our Lady calls us to be clothed in holiness, clothed in penance and conversion! She wants us to be safely on the road to Heaven with her. October 24, 1985 “Dear children! From day to day I wish to clothe you in holiness, goodness, obedience and God’s love, so that from day to day you become more beautiful and more prepared for your Master. Dear children, listen to and live my messages. I wish to guide you. Thank you for having responded to my call.” February 25, 2023 “Dear children! Keep converting and clothe yourselves in penitential garments and in personal, deep prayer; and in humility, seek peace from the Most High. In this time of grace, Satan wants to seduce you; but you, little children, keep looking at my Son and follow Him towards Calvary in renunciation and fasting. I am with you because the Most High permits me to love you and lead you towards the joy of the heart, in faith which grows for all those who love God above all. Thank you for having responded to my call.” As we follow Our Lady’s heavenly advice, and move towards holiness, we feel more and more the safety and joy of Our Lady’s maternal care! Oh Mary, our sweet Mother, lead us to Jesus! Accompany us on our journey to Heaven!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

Give me Wisdom, the attendant at your throne… Mary, Seat of Wisdom, pray for us!   July 15, 2025 St. Bonaventure Dear Family of Mary! St. Bonaventure is known for his great wisdom, received through prayer and study, and of course great humility. Let us ask St. Bonaventure to pray for us today, to grow in Godly wisdom, which comes through prayer, self-denial, and love. Here is a beautiful prayer for the gift of wisdom from the Old Testament: Wisdom 9:1-6, 9-11 God of my fathers, Lord of mercy, you who have made all things by your word  and in your wisdom have established man to rule the creatures produced by you,  to govern the world in holiness and justice, and to render judgment in integrity of heart:  Give me Wisdom, the attendant at your throne, and reject me not from among your children;  for I am your servant, the son of your handmaid, a man weak and short-lived and lacking in comprehension of judgment and of laws.  Indeed, though one be perfect among the sons of men, if Wisdom, who comes from you, be not with him, he shall be held in no esteem. Now with you is Wisdom, who knows your works and was present when you made the world; who understands what is pleasing in your eyes and what is conformable with your commands.  Send her forth from your holy heavens and from your glorious throne dispatch her that she may be with me and work with me, that I may know what is your pleasure.  For she knows and understands all things, and will guide me discreetly in my affairs and safeguard me by her glory. Our Lady has called us to Wisdom as well. She is the spouse of the Holy Spirit, and the Seat of Wisdom!! You might say that it is Our Lady that this holy writer was invoking in this prayer for wisdom. Our Lady can teach us how to receive Wisdom and let it form our actions. May 25, 2000  “Dear children! I rejoice with you and in this time of grace I call you to spiritual renewal. Pray, little children, that the Holy Spirit may come to dwell in you in fullness, so that you may be able to witness in joy to all those who are far from faith. Especially, little children, pray for the gifts of the Holy Spiri so that in the spirit of love, every day and in each situation, you may be closer to your fellow-man; and that in wisdom and love you may overcome every difficulty. I am with you and I intercede for each of you before Jesus. Thank you for having responded to my call.” Indeed, let us pray: Send her forth from your holy heavens and from your glorious throne dispatch her that she may be with me and work with me, that I may know what is your pleasure.  For she knows and understands all things, and will guide me discreetly in my affairs and safeguard me by her glory. Thank you, dearest Mother, the Holy Seat of Wisdom, for being with us in these days. You want us to receive the wisdom of God through your intercession, so that we can walk in peace and holiness, always doing the good and loving all people in the name of God. Thank you, dearest Seat of Wisdom, for being our Mother!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2025 www.marytv.tv P.S. Thank you to all who are supporting Mary TV!!

May your crosses be your means in the battle… July 14, 2025 St. Kateri Tekakwitha Dear Family of Mary! Today is the Memorial of Saint Kateri Tekakwitha! Kateri is remembered for her courage and her humility. It says in the Magnificat: “Tekakwitha was born in the Mohawk village of Osssernenon (Auriesville, New York). As a young girl, she lost her parents and brother to smallpox. Moved by the preaching of Jesuit missionaries, she was baptized at the age of twenty, taking the name Kateri after Catherine of Siena. Like her namesake, she was drawn into intimate communion with God and suffered persecution for his sake. Her fellow Indians withheld her food on Sundays and pelted her with rocks as she entered the chapel. She escaaped to the Jesuit mission near Montreal, where she spent the last three years of her life giving herself to prayer, mortification, and works of charity. Kateri died in 1680.” (Taken from the Magnificat, July 2025, Vol. 27, No.5) It always touches me deeply that Kateri lost her family at a young age, and then was treated so poorly by her tribe because of her conversion to Catholicism. Her faith must have been rock solid, for her to endure so much mistreatment. And her humility shines forth as a testament of her love for Jesus. Our Lady asks us to be humble and to bear our crosses willingly, like Kateri. Here is one message: October 2, 2010  “Dear children; Today I call you to a humble, my children, humble devotion. Your hearts need to be just. May your crosses be your means in the battle against the sins of the present time. May your weapon be patience and boundless love, a love that knows to wait and which will make you capable of recognizing God’s signs, that your life, by humble love, may show the truth to all those who seek it in the darkness of lies… My children, my apostles, help me to open the paths to my Son. Once again I call you to pray for your shepherds. Alongside them, I will triumph. Thank you.” Our Mother is not afraid to call us to walk a difficult road. She knows that as we follow her Son, we will encounter the same difficulties and crosses that He encountered. Kateri also encountered those difficulties. Her example is a big help for us in our lives. She knew all about loneliness, persecution, and trials, but she conquered them all through her deep love for Jesus. We are called to the same deep love for Jesus! We are called by Mother Mary, who shows us the way to endure, and to conquer all trials and troubles. Humility and love are the tools we need to endure and succeed. Blessings today to you all!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

The Call to Eternity   July 11, 2025 St. Benedict Dear Family of Mary! The picture above is of the apparition to Marija on June 21, 2025, early in the morning on Apparition Hill with thousands of pilgrims present. Our Lady came to Marija and to all the people present there (even through the internet), bringing eternity with her from Heaven. You can feel the power of the presence of Heaven meeting our temporal world during the apparition. Eternity is real, and it is our future. It is our hope! Here is a message to meditate upon, to pray over, during this weekend. It is simple, but true. Mother’s heart is in it! She is drawing us to eternity. Let her peace flow over you as you pray over her words: October 2, 2006  “Dear Children! I am coming to you in this your time to direct the call to eternity to you. This is the call of love. I call you to love because only through love will you come to know the love of God. Many think that they have faith in God and that they know His laws. They try to live according to them; but they do not do what is the most important; they do not love Him. My children, pray and fast. This is the way which will help you to open yourselves and to love. Only through the love of God is eternity gained. I am with you. I will lead you with the motherly love. Thank you for having responded.” Our Lady added at the end: “My children, priests’ hands are the blessed hands of my Son. Respect them.” In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
