Dear Family of Mary!
Happy and Blessed New Year!! At the beginning of the New Year, it is a good time to pray and ask for a Saint to choose us as our personal companion for the year! Our Lady has told us:
October 25, 1994
“Dear children! I am with you and I rejoice today because the Most High has granted me to be with you and to teach you and to guide you on the path of perfection.
Little children, I wish you to be a beautiful bouquet of flowers which I wish to present to God for the day of All Saints.
I invite you to open yourselves and to live, taking the saints as an example. Mother Church has chosen them, that they may be an impulse for your daily life.
Thank you for having responded to my call!”
It is sobering to think that The Most High has sent Our Lady to teach us and guide us on the path of perfection! But it is a consolation that she advises us to take the saints as an example to be an impulse for our daily life! We need help!
There is a lovely tradition of choosing a Saint to be our personal companion at the beginning of the New Year. Denis and I have been doing it for a long time. I am including a list of saints below, that you may want to download. You can print it out and cut up the individual saints, and then pray and pull a saint from the pile! Or you may want to just close your eyes and put your finger down upon a page.
You can access the Saint’s document by going to our webpage and clicking on the blue drop down box at the top of the home page, which says “2025 Saints List is Available – click here!” Or from the home page select the subpage: Prayer – then click on 2025 Saints List!
God bless you all!
