August 10, 2024 Reflection – In your heart a desire for Heaven will be born.

In your heart a desire for Heaven will be born.   August 10, 2024 St. Lawrence Dear Family of Mary! Today is Day 4 of our little novena before the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary! Our Lady tells us today that we must “Pray, pray, pray!” She has often asked us to pray, pray, pray, because she realizes how sluggish we can be. She wants us to really understand that prayer is essential, especially where Heaven is concerned: August 25, 2006  “Dear children! Also today I call you to pray, pray, pray. Only in prayer will you be near to me and my Son and you will see how short this life is. In your heart a desire for Heaven will be born. Joy will begin to rule in your heart and prayer will begin to flow like a river. In your words there will only be thanksgiving to God for having created you and the desire for holiness will become a reality for you. Thank you for having responded to my call.” May we try to live out Our Lady’s call to increase our prayer. It may be hard at first, but soon it becomes “Heaven”!!!! Dearest Mother Mary, we know that you were assumed into Heaven, body and soul, to be with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and all the Heavenly Host, for eternity. From Heaven, you come to us now, every day, in Medjugorje! You bring Heaven with you, and we all have felt it. We want to do everything we can to prepare for Heaven. We will listen to your words with our hearts, and respond as best we can. Thank you, dearest Mother, for being with us in Medjugorje! Amen, Alleluia! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Cathy Nolan (c)Mary TV. TV

August 9, 2024 Reflection – In heaven is the joy through which you can already live heaven now.

In heaven is the joy through which you can already live heaven now.   August 9, 2024 St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross Dear Family of Mary! Today is Day 3 of our little novena before the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary! We consider together another message from Our Lady, in which she talks to us about heaven. In this message Our Lady speaks of the importance of her messages in our journey towards Heaven. She wants us to really try to live her messages, as they help us on our way to Heaven: May 25, 1991  “Dear Children! Today I invite all of you who have heard my message of peace to realize it with seriousness and with love in your life. There are many who think that they are doing a lot by talking about the messages, but do not live them. Dear children, I invite you to life and to change all the negative in you, so that it all turns into the positive and life. Dear children, I am with you and I desire to help each of you to live and by living, to witness the good news. I am here, dear children, to help you and to lead you to heaven, and in heaven is the joy through which you can already live heaven now. Thank you for having responded to my call!” Mother Mary is leading us to heaven. She knows the way! Her life, and her Assumption have given her a roadmap for us all. Let’s listen to and live her messages so that we will find ourselves living heaven here on earth, because the joy of heaven is already in us through Mary! Dearest Mother Mary, we know that you were assumed into Heaven, body and soul, to be with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and all the Heavenly Host, for eternity. From Heaven, you come to us now, every day, in Medjugorje! You bring Heaven with you, and we all have felt it. We want to do everything we can to prepare for Heaven. We will listen to your words with our hearts, and respond as best we can. Thank you, dearest Mother, for being with us in Medjugorje! Amen, Alleluia! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Cathy Nolan (c)Mary TV. TV

August 8, 2024 Reflection – I want each one of you…to be with me in Heaven

I want each one of you…to be with me in Heaven.   August 8, 2024 Dear Family of Mary! Day 2 of our Novena before the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary! Today’s message shows how serious Our Lady is! She wants each one of us to be in Heaven with her!!! But our wills are involved. We must choose holiness. We must reject satan every day, because he will not quit tempting us. This is a fight to the death! But Our Lady is with us to bring us through it all, unto Heaven! May 25, 1987  “Dear children! I am calling every one of you to start living in God’s love. Dear children, you are ready to commit sin, and to put yourselves in the hand of satan without reflecting. I call on each one of you to consciously decide for God and against satan. I am your Mother and, therefore, I want to lead you all to perfect holiness. I want each one of you to be happy here on earth and to be with me in Heaven. That is, dear children, the purpose of my coming here and it’s my desire. Thank you for having responded to my call.” Dearest Mother Mary, we know that you were assumed into Heaven, body and soul, to be with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and all the Heavenly Host, for eternity. From Heaven, you come to us now, every day, in Medjugorje! You bring Heaven with you, and we all have felt it. We want to do everything we can to prepare for Heaven. We will listen to your words with our hearts, and respond as best we can. Thank you, dearest Mother, for being with us in Medjugorje! Amen, Alleluia! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Cathy Nolan (c)Mary TV. TV

August 7, 2024 Reflection – I desire to bring you all to Heaven unto God!

I desire to bring you all to Heaven unto God!   August 7, 2024 Dear Family of Mary! Today we begin a novena before the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary! It is a joy to be able to pray to Our Lady in this special way especially after the Youth Festival which was her gift to us! Our Lady must have been very busy during the Youth Festival, ministering to all the young people (and not so young people) at the Festival! It seems like a good idea to return to quiet prayer now, preparing for her Feast Day! I propose that we take one message a day, in which Our Lady talks about Heaven, and pray over it, giving her words time to percolate in our souls! She speaks so simply that we can overlook the incredible meaning in them. Our Lady was assumed into Heaven! Heaven is now her home. We need to raise our eyes toward Heaven, which one day will be our home as well. It is Heaven that waits for us. Let Our Lady guide us to our Home. Novena Day 1 November 27, 1986 “Dear children! Again today I call you to consecrate your life to me with love, so I am able to guide you with love. I love you, dear children, with a special love and I desire to bring you all to Heaven unto God. I want you to realize that this life lasts briefly compared to the one in Heaven. Therefore, dear children, decide again today for God. Only that way will I be able to show how much you are dear to me and how much I desire all to be saved and to be with me in Heaven. Thank you for having responded to my call.” Dearest Mother Mary, we know that you were assumed into Heaven, body and soul, to be with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and all the Heavenly Host, for eternity. From Heaven, you come to us now, every day, in Medjugorje! You bring Heaven with you, and we all have felt it. We want to do everything we can to prepare for Heaven. We will listen to your words with our hearts, and respond as best we can. Thank you, dearest Mother, for being with us in Medjugorje! Amen, Alleluia! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Cathy Nolan (c)Mary TV. TV

August 6, 2024 Reflection – The Transfiguration of the Lord

Thank you, Dearest Mother, for the Youth Festival   August 6, 2024 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, Cathy Nolan Mary TV

August 5, 2024 Reflection – Youth Festival Day 5!!

The Youth Festival in Medjugorje Day 5!!   August 5, 2024 The Dedication of the Basilica of St. Mary Major Dear Family of Mary! This is Day 5 of the Youth Festival! It is August 5th and this is a special day for Our Lady. Many years ago (1984), she revealed to the visionaries that August 5 was the date of her actual birth. She asked them to celebrate with her this way: In anticipation of this day Our Lady had said: “The priest who will hear confession will have great joy on that day.” During these 3 days of fasting and continuous prayer the visionaries say the Blessed Virgin was: Very Joyful. Our Lady repeated:  “I am very happy, continue, continue. Continue to pray and to fast.” Her joy seemed to have reached a peak Sunday, August 5th. Like a flower when it blooms, and full of joy, Our Lady said:“Continue, continue, open your hearts, ask God and I will ask for you.” Sunday, August 5, 1984 The celebration of the second millennium of Mary’s birthday was preceded by three days of fasting and continuous prayer. Seventy priests heard confessions without rest; there were a great number of conversions. “Never in my life have I cried with sorrow, as I have cried this evening with joy. Thank you!” We can spend this day, August 5, 2024, in profound prayer of thanksgiving for Our Lady’s Birth, and for her presence with us in Medjugorje even today!! This is God’s great gift to us!! Thank you, dearest Mother!!! Here is the schedule for today; August 5, 2024 Youth Festival – Monday 9:00 AM to 12:15 PM Youth Festival Morning Session – Teachings and Testimonies 3:00 to 3:55 PM -Daily Rosary with Denis and Cathy 3:55 to 11:00 PM -Closing Youth Festival Evening Program – Teachings, Testimonies, Holy Mass and celebration into the night! The Festival has continued to be incredible. Both Saturday and Sunday contained joyful song and praise, beautiful liturgies, incredible testimonies and joy! On Sunday afternoon the Cenacolo Community shared some very moving testimonies of conversions from their members. And after Holy Mass, they again put on a very moving theatrical presentation of the life of Jesus. Incredibly moving!! You can see it all in our archive for the Youth Festival 2024 – https://video.marytv.tv/series/ivi4gX2LscZ?_gl=1*11sgh11*_ga*NTY0Njk0Njk1LjE2NzE5OTQ1NDM.*_ga_PJFEX7SVGS*MTcyMjc5NzU1OS4zOTUuMC4xNzIyNzk3NTU5LjYwLjAuMA.. Please pray for all those who have been serving at the Festival, as they have worked incredibly hard all day and most of the night!! This Festival is a demonstration of the love of God! We are so blessed! See you on day 5!!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Cathy Nolan (c)Mary TV. TV

August 2, 2024 Reflection – The Youth Festival in Medjugorje Day 2!!

The Youth Festival in Medjugorje Day 2!!   August 2, 2024 St Eusebius of Vercelli St Peter Julian Eymard Dear Family of Mary! This is Day 2 of the Youth Festival and here is the schedule; August 2, 2024 Youth Festival – Friday 6:00 AM – Rosary on Apparition Hill 9:00 AM to 12:15 PM Youth Festival Morning Session – Teachings and Testimonies 3:00 to 3:55 PM -Daily Rosary with Denis and Cathy 3:55 to 11:00 PM – Youth Festival Evening Program – Teachings, Testimonies, Holy Mass and more! I must say that the opening ceremony last night was the most beautiful thing to behold! There was not one inch of ground left unoccupied – so many people had come to pray together behind the Church. All eyes were on the altar, while many decades of the Rosary were prayed. There was great reverence during the Holy Mass!! And Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament was heavenly! I realized last night that the 35th Youth Festival in Medjugorje is Heaven’s answer to the unholy display at the opening of the Paris Olympics. And the power of prayer in Medjugorje last night vastly out weighed that pathetic display of disrespect in Paris. The Good will win! The Good already has won! Jesus is Lord!!! Take these words to heart: May 25, 2022 “Dear children! I am looking at you and thanking God for each of you, because He permits me to still be with you, to encourage you to holiness. Little children, peace is disturbed and Satan wants peacelessness. That is why, may your prayer be even stronger so that every unclean spirit of division and war may be stilled. Be builders of peace and carriers of joy of the Risen One in you and around you, for the good to win in every man. Thank you for having responded to my call.” This is our call! During this Youth Festival, we will witness the building of peace and joy in the Risen One in us and around us! This is Our Lady’s victory! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Cathy Nolan (c)Mary TV. TV

(July 25, 2024) In Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Cathy Nolan (c)Mary TV. TV

July 31, 2024 Reflection – My Children, you have been chosen…

My children, you have been chosen…   July 31, 2024 St. Ignatius of Loyola Dear Family of Mary! July 25, 2024 “My dear children, with joy I have chosen you and am leading you… I think it is important that we all realize that we have been chosen by Our Lady! It is no accident that we are joined together by Our Lady of Medjugorje, and that we pray together each day. Our Lady has called us, and she needs us. We are her prayer team, her support! Here are five messages that speak about our being chosen by the Lord. Let’s take them to prayer, possibly one for each decade of the Rosary. Let Mother’s words speak to our hearts about being chosen by her. We need to understand this. We have been chosen by God through Mary, and we have responded as best we can. It is amazing! Let her words explain this process to us! 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. December 25, 2020 “Dear children! I am carrying to you little Jesus who brings you peace, Him who is the past, present and future of your existence. Little children, do not permit for your faith and hope in a better future to be extinguished, because you are chosen to be witnesses of hope in every situation. That is why I am here with Jesus that He may bless you with His peace. Thank you for having responded to my call.” 12/25/2020 March 25, 2021 “Dear children! Also, today I am with you to tell you: Little children, who prays does not fear the future and does not lose hope. You are chosen to carry joy and peace, because you are mine. I have come here with the name ‘Queen of Peace’ because the devil wants peacelessness and war, he wants to fill your heart with fear of the future – but the future is God’s. That is why, be humble and pray, and surrender everything into the hands of the Most High Who created you. Thank you for having responded to my call.” September 25, 2023 “Dear children! I am calling you to strong prayer. Modernism wants to enter into your thoughts and steal from you the joy of prayer and of meeting with Jesus. That is why, my dear little children, renew prayer in your families, so that my motherly heart may be joyful as in the first days, when I had chosen you, and day and night prayer resounded — and Heaven was not silent but abundantly bestowed peace and blessing on this place of grace. Thank you for having responded to my call.” April 2, 2008 “Dear children, Also today as I am with you in the great love of God I desire to ask you: Are you also with me? Are your hearts open for me? Do you permit me with my love to purify and prepare them for my Son? My children, you have been chosen because, in your time, the great grace of God has descended on earth. Do not hesitate to accept it. Thank you.” Thank you to all of you who have responded to Our Lady’s call!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan Mary TV Here again is the link to our donation page!

July 30, 2024 Reflection – “so that peace may win in you and around you…”

“so that peace may win in you and around you…”   July 30, 2024 Dear Family of Mary! July 25, 2024 “My dear children, with joy I have chosen you and am leading you, because in you, little children, I see people of faith, hope and prayer. May you, little children, be led by the pride that you are mine. And I am leading you to Him, Who is the Way, the Truth and the Life. And I am with you so that peace may win in you and around you, because it is with this intention God sent me to you. Thank you for having responded to my call.” I share this message again because I find it to be very good news and also because it gives us such clear direction. Our Lady tells us that she is with us!! “And I am with you…” We need her now more than ever. The world seems to be wobbling on its axis. Peace is disintegrating at a terrifying pace. But she tells us “And I am with you so that peace may win in you and around you, because it is with this intention God sent me to you.” God sent our Mother to us with the express intention of helping us to win through to peace. She has been given a plan from heaven for peace, and she wants to lead us in that plan. Let’s not let the apparent chaos in our countries frighten us. Our Mother is with us to help us win through to peace! As was shown during the Novena before the 43rd Anniversary on Apparition Hill, our prayer together has great power for good. Let’s pray with all our hearts in these days for peace. Let’s imagine ourselves in the dark on Apparition Hill, and pray with all our hearts together for peace. We can do it! With Our Lady, we can win through to peace!!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Cathy Nolan (c)Mary TV. TV Here again is the link to our latest update on the building project near Apparition Hill.
