From Denis:

Let’s respond to a recent invitation by Fr. Marinko Sakota, OFM, Pastor of St. James Parish in Medjugorje:

On May 31, 2018, the Holy Father appointed Archbishop Henryk Hoser, former Special Envoy of the Holy See as the Apostolic Visitor with a special role for the parish of Medjugorje.

Archbishop Hoser will begin his mission in Medjugorje with the solemn Holy Mass on Sunday, July 22 at 7 pm.
.

We invite all parishioners and pilgrims to come and take part in this solemn Holy Mass celebration on Sunday evening.

PS. Here is a news release from Vaitcan News Service about Archbishop Hoser’s new role in Medjugorje:

Pope’s envoy to Medjugorje begins his ministry

Archbishop Henryk Hoser, appointed by Pope Francis as Apostolic Visitor to St James Parish in Medjugorje, begins his assignment on Sunday.

By Sr Bernadette Mary Reis, fsp

Archbishop Henryk Hoser, retired Archbishop of Warsaw-Prague in Poland, begins his mandate on Sunday as Apostolic Visitor to St James Parish in Medjugorje. He will inaugurate his ministry with solemn Mass in the evening [July 22, 2018] and has invited all of the faithful and pilgrims present to participate.

First mandate

Archbishop Hoser was first appointed by Pope Francis as a special envoy from the Holy See to St James Parish on 11 February 2017. At that time the Holy See’s Press Office stated that the mission entrusted to the then Archbishop of Warsaw-Prague “has the aim of acquiring a deeper knowledge of the pastoral situation there and above all, of the needs of the faithful who go there in pilgrimage, and on the basis of this, to suggest possible pastoral initiatives for the future. The mission will therefore have an exclusively pastoral character.” The statement said that his mandate was expected to conclude by the end of summer 2017.

The same day the Press Office released this statement, Director Greg Burke underlined that “the mission of the Special Envoy is a sign of the Holy Father’s attention toward the pilgrims. The scope is not inquisitorial, but strictly pastoral. The Envoy will not enter into questions regarding the Marian apparitions, which are the competence of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. He will be in contact with the diocesan bishop, the Franciscan Friars Minor – to whom the parish of Medjugorje is entrusted – and with the faithful of the area.” And he concluded, “It is a mission for the pilgrims, not against anyone”.

Second mandate

Pope Francis nominated Archbishop Hoser a second time “as special apostolic visitor for the parish of Medjugorje” on 31 May 2018. According to the statement released by the Holy See’s Press Office, the mandate will last for “an undefined period and ad nutum Sanctae” (at the Holy See’s disposition).

Once again, Archbishop Hoser will exercise “an exclusively pastoral office” in continuity with his first mandate which came to an end recently. The Holy See’s Press Office explains, “the mission of the Apostolic Visitor has the aim of ensuring a stable and continuous accompaniment to the parish community of Medjugorje and to the faithful who go there as pilgrims, and whose needs require particular attention.”

Dear Family of Mary TV!

Dear Cheryl, thank you for your email asking for clarification about a sentence I quoted from Marija’s October 24, 2017 talk in St. Stephens Cathedral in Vienna:

Dear Mary TV,

You have a posted interview with Marija on your webpage which claims to translate that Marija said this is the year of the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart.  Have you confirmed with Marija that is indeed what she said or did the translator make an error?  The translator hesitated a few times during that line.  I worry this is going to start a false fire storm! Just because a priest translated it, it still needs to be confirmed before something like this is spread. False information could hurt Our Lady’s Plans and souls.

Respectfully, please confirm!

Cheryl

That “firestorm” is well underway. Yes, false information is being spread, detrimental to Our Lady’s plans and to souls! “Satan is strong and wants to sweep away my plans of peace and joy and make you think that my Son is not strong in His decisions.”  

I am grateful to have received a more exact English translation of Marija’s words:

“I believe that with this year, as she said, begins the Triumph of her Immaculate Heart.”

I’m sure Marija meant exactly what she said. In her testimony she was making reference to what Our Lady had told us all in her August 25, 1991 message:

“Dear Children! Today also I invite you to prayer, now as never before when my plan has begun to be realized. Satan is strong and wants to sweep away my plans of peace and joy and make you think that my Son is not strong in His decisions. Therefore, I call all of you, dear children, to pray and fast still more firmly. I invite you to self-renunciation for nine days so that, with your help, everything that I desire to realize through the secrets I began in Fatima, may be fulfilled. I call you, dear children, to now grasp the importance of my coming and the seriousness of the situation. I want to save all souls and present them to God. Therefore, let us pray that everything I have begun be fully realized. Thank you for having responded to my call.”

Our Lady alluded to the “false firestorm” you mention in her very next message:

“Dear children! Today in a special way I invite you all to prayer and renunciation. For now, as never before Satan wants to show the world his shameful face by which he wants to seduce as many people as possible onto the way of death and sin. Therefore, dear children, help my Immaculate Heart to triumph in the sinful world. I beseech all of you to offer prayers and sacrifices for my intentions so I can present them to God for what is most necessary. Forget your desires, dear children, and pray for what God desires, and not for what you desire. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (September 25, 1991).

Satan is trying to seduce Our Lady’s children, as he is the whole world, with his shameful face. He’s terrified. He has no time left. He’s lost. And as he did when thrown out of heaven, he’s sweeping with his tail:

“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…” (July 2, 2016).

I don’t think we can be too hopeful, too excited about what Marija told us in Vienna:

“I believe that with this year, as she said, begins the Triumph of her Immaculate Heart.”

All one has to do is look at the messages Our Lady has been giving to us over the past few years. Anyone finding Marija’s words too optimistic, too hopeful, has not been paying attention to Our Lady’s messages.

Our Lady’s most consistent characteristic is joy:

“Dear children! With great joy, today I am carrying my Son Jesus to you, for Him to give you His peace. Open your hearts, little children, and be joyful that you can receive it. Heaven is with you and is fighting for peace in your hearts, in the families and in the world; and you, little children, help with your prayers for it to be so. I bless you with my Son Jesus and call you not to lose hope; and for your gaze and heart to always be directed towards Heaven and eternity. In this way, you will be open to God and to His plans. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (December 25, 2016). (Note P.S. below)

Satan is working overtime to get our attention and gaze off of heaven and eternity – to close us to God’s plans. This is the “false fire storm” we need to be warned about.

“Dear Children, listen to me! I speak for your salvation!” (March 18, 2016).

“Again, little children, I call you not to be deaf but to comprehend my call which is salvation for you!” September 25, 2003).

“You are a part of me!” (July 2, 2014).

Pay attention, as Marija is, to Our Lady’s messages!

Our Lady is calling us to go on the offensive with her – to stand by her side as she exorcises Satan from the earth!

“I believe that with this year, as she said, begins the Triumph of her Immaculate Heart.”

Amen,  Marija!

God bless you!

Dear Children of Our Lady of Medjugorje, Family of Mary TV:

Featured speakers include the Pastor of St. James Church in Medjugorje, two cardinals and Medjugorje visionary Marija Pavlovic-Lunetti…. 4:00-9:00pm Vienna Time (10:00am to 3:00pm EDT in the US). Here is the schedule:

Evening of Prayer in Vienna – Schedule

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! Cathy and I just returned from the most wonderful pilgrimage with Tom and Mary Matasso and many of Mary TV’s shipmates! Our whole time together was overflowing with grace! Thank you for your prayers – and for your donations. I’ve got to tell you what your prayers and donations have accomplished for Our Lady!

As soon as we arrived in Medjugorje Tom and I headed to Mary TV’s studio…. He was excited to show me the new technical equipment your donations made possible, right after Our Lady had told us in her message, “Be ready! This is a turning point!”

Tom told me: “Four years ago a digital TV station control room cost $1,500,000 ($US). Today,” gesturing with a sweep of his hand towards all he equipment before us, “a full blown digital TV station control room costs $35,000!”

I had asked you for $35,000 and you came through! Your donations gave this gift to Our Lady! I wish you could have seen all the beautiful, grateful faces of people expressing gratitude for Mary TV. Due to your generous donations Medjugorje is coming into homes throughout the world.

I could tell you many stories. I’ll conclude with just one: With Mary TV’s very competent technical crew in Medjugorje running things smoothly, Tom had the leisure to just sit back and do some thinking “outside the box”…. (Remember, this is the guy who built the first all digital TV station in the US – TXCN of Dallas!)! With the prayer of Medjugorje going on around him (our studios are right next to the Church) he got the idea to put together from existing equipment sitting on a shelf not being used for anything, a new POV camera that would go up closer to Our Lady’s statue on Apparition Hill. Discovering that Sony doesn’t make a POV box big enough (no one does) Tom and Kiki went to a local plumbing store, purchased 10” drain pipe and made their own! The lens still needs fine tuning but there it is! Take a look at the top of Mary TV’s web page:

Live close up camera at Apparition Hill

IT’S TIME TO FINISH OUR DOWNSTAIRS TV STATION! The station has been “on hold” for 14 years (we’ve been waiting for the money). It’s time! The facility is huge….20 foot ceilings! The main film studio can hold 150 people!

FIRST: we need a $30,000 to fix a serious water leak (our studio is so deep into the ground, during the rainy season water comes into the floor).

SECOND: $25,000 to finish the electrical, lights, spray the walls and put floors in the engineering room, control room, and the two studios.

THIRD: $15,000 for new cameras. We need 3 TV cameras at $5,000 each. (As noted in the third paragraph above, technology is getting better and cheaper – changing, I’m told, every three months! A television camera that used to cost $100,000 now costs $5,000 (and it’s a much better camera now)!

FOURTH: $5,000 to put in two bathrooms….

$75,000 DOES IT ALL (the price of Mary TV’s first camera)!

OUR LADY NEEDS YOU NOW! GO OUT AND FIND A DONOR!!!!!! (Donations are tax exempt)

How you can help:

“The source of grace is here, but you, dear children, are the vehicles transmitting the gifts. Therefore, dear children, I am calling you to work responsibly. Everyone will be responsible according to his own measure. Dear children, I am calling you to give the gift to others with love and not to keep it for yourselves,” (May 8, 1986 message from our Mother).

“BE READY! THIS IS A TURNING POINT!” (6/2/17).

Thank you and God bless you!

Dear Family of Mary TV,

INCREDIBLE NEWS! You can now pray at the Blue Cross in Medjugorje at any time of day or night, from any place in the world!

This link to the live camera shot, https://marytv.tv/?page_id=2363 , can be found at the very top of Mary TV’s web page.

Your prayers and donations have made this special place of prayer in Medjugorje accessible to all of Our Lady’s children – 24/7 – just when she’s telling us: “Dear children! Today I am calling you to be people of prayer!”*

I’m told this feat is nothing short of a miracle. For example, there is no clear “line of sight” to our building. The signal has to travel 1.3 miles and make its way around buildings and trees. AND IT’S WORKING! We didn’t really know what the camera would see. AND ITS PERFECT!

This must give Our Lady joy…. In the “Prayer to the Mother of Goodness, Love and Mercy”, that she dictated to Jelena Vasilj on April 19, 1983, Our Lady included these words for us to pray to her: “Give us the grace to be merciful towards you!” Putting modern communications technologies at her disposal in Medjugorje so her children can stand by her side in prayer as she intercedes for the whole world is doing exactly that, being merciful to our Mother. “My Son promised me that evil will never win because you, the souls of the just, are here”

A big THANK YOU to all our donors. This is a labor of love from us all. Some unexpected larger donations came in just before the youth festival – when Our Lady had told us: “Be ready. This time is a turning point!” Without them we would not have been able to move forward as we have done.

Mary TV’s team consists of volunteers, some of whom receive small stipends. No one gets a full salary…. And donations right now aren’t really covering monthly expenses….but somehow Providence takes care. For example, Rosie hadn’t told me that she was short 1,800 Euros to pay this year’s rent for Mary TV’s Tea House in Medjugorje. I just found out that on the day the rent was due (May 1st, the Feast of St. Joseph the Worker) someone walked into the Tea House, placed 1,800 Euros into Rosie’s hand, turned around and walked out! (Thank you, who ever you are!!)**

Here is the link for how you can be part of this marvelous work for Our Lady:

Thank you and God bless you!

*“Dear children! Today I am calling you to be people of prayer. Pray until prayer becomes a joy for you and a meeting with the Most High. He will transform your hearts and you will become people of love and peace. Do not forget, little children, that Satan is strong and wants to draw you away from prayer. You, do not forget that prayer is the secret key of meeting with God. That is why I am with you to lead you. Do not give up on prayer. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (August 25, 2017 message).

** I just can’ keep from sharing one more little story: Franjo and Rosie will be traveling to the US soon to greet their first grandchild (Yes, Josip and Christina are about to have a baby)! Franjo was late applying for a Visa….The family was a little nervous he might be cutting it too short. He was greeted last week when he walked into the US Embassy in Sarajevo, with: “Hi Franjo! How’s Rosie?” He was greeted warmly and given “red carpet” treatment! People at the Embassy are familiar with Mary TV and watch it regularly!

36th Anniversary of Our Lady’s apparitions!

Dear Family of Mary TV,

Join us in thanking Our Lady on her anniversary:

Dear Blessed Mother! Thank you for coming to us for 36 years! You make us so happy! Thank you for being with us and staying with us. We can not live without you. Help us now to truly open our hearts to your presence, and to your love. You can change us if we let you. We accept! Please make our hearts like yours, so that we can love your Son with complete surrender. You are our Mom!

Yesterday, thanks to your generosity, I was able to send two large suitcases to Medjugorje containing new technology for Mary TV’s team!  God willing, by the time of the Youth Festival, Mary TV will have some very exciting new features in place!

We’re streaming LIVE the Mass tonight, and then the parish’s Adoration from 10:00pm to 11:00pm (Medj time).  And Live streaming tomorrow’s International Mass celebrating the 36th Anniversary of Our Lady’s apparitions in Medjugorje.

Yesterday I noticed lights all over Mt. Podbrdo at 4:00pm (EDT)…..and then realized it was the apparition taking place at Our Lady’s statue (10:00 pm Medjugorje time)….

Cardinal Schoenborn (main author of the “Catechism of the Catholic Church”) assured me that taking part in an apparition via the internet, is the same as being right there with Our Lady where she is appearing. If you are praying, welcoming her, you are blessed by her the same as the people right next to her during her apparition, and even the religious items you have by your computer for her to bless are blessed the same as the religious items placed right in front of her where she is appearing….

Our 24/7 POV camera on the statue of Our Lady on Mt. Podbrdo (where apparitions still take place) is one mile away.  Take a look:    https://marytv.tv/?page_id=309 

A new camera with a lens that would bring us right up close is expensive….  $25,000. But considering the whole world then would be able to join the apparition….welcoming Our Lady and receiving her blessing, it’s worth it! It’s worth the price of a good used car to give this gift to the Gospa!  (And that is where the permanent sign will be, the sign Our Lady has said is for the whole world to see.) https://marytv.tv/?page_id=1468

If God has blessed you with the financial means to do so – consider giving this gift to the Gospa for her 36th Anniversary!

Thank you and God bless you!

Denis Nolan

PS. Don’t miss this Monday night’s Fruit of Medjugorje at: https://marytv.tv/?page_id=167 .

In episode #271 a diocesan exorcist gives a powerful testimony of the importance of Medjugorje. During his first pilgrimage as a newly ordained priest 29 years ago, he had his first encounter with spiritual warfare.
