33 Day Consecration – Day 17

Dear Family of Mary!

33 Day Prayer of Consecration to Our Lady of the Rosary – Day 17  

In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit!

Receive our Consecration Prayer, O dearest Mother Mary! 

 
Today we are at the exact midpoint of our 33 Day Consecration. We have done 16 days. We are on Day 17. And tomorrow we will begin another 16 days! So, to mark the halfway point, God gave us a beautiful homily given at the International Mass last night, by Bishop Giampaolo Crepaldi from Trieste, Italy! Bishop Crepaldi celebrated the International Mass and shared beautifully about the great mercy of God and the presence of Our Lady, and how we can dedicate our lives to her call. It is the perfect midpoint reflection and really it is a prayer!!

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
 
Gathered around the altar on which the offering of the Lord Jesus to the Father is renewed through the powerful action of the Holy Spirit, we want to express our devoted gratitude to the Triune Love which here in Medjugorje manifests itself in a particular way with the features of His forgiveness and His Mercy.
 
We, too, like the simple woman in the passage of the Gospel that we have just heard (Lk 7:36-50), have come here to prostrate ourselves at the feet of Jesus.
 
Like her, we are also called to nurture a great love, because it is the love that gives us an experience of free forgiveness.
 
Like her, we, too, after a good confession, savor the joy of forgiveness and the joy of a life renewed and reborn in Christ.
 
Like her, we also must be firmly convinced that the debt we have accumulated with our sinful behavior is completely forgiven. Because, like her, we also know that many sins are forgiven to us when we show great love.
 
Like her, we, too, are at table with Him, becoming His family, saved by the grace of His forgiveness.
 
Like her, we, too, at the moment of the Holy Communion, will touch that body tormented on the cross and glorified by the resurrection, aware that the Divine Mercy is a gift of grace for all.
 
Like her, we also must feel saved and completely redeemed from our evil which has often and for a long time afflicted our soul, feeling the profound peace that Jesus proclaims Himself to us, saying, “Your sins are forgiven, and your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
 
This is one of the formulas with which the confessor concludes the Rite of Confession repeating to each penitent the same wish for salvation and peace. Let us cherish this treasure, and we will not be lacking in His Mercy.
 
Dear brothers and sisters, an urgent call that comes to us in Medjugorje is the call to conversion which is concretized in the call to direct our lives to Christ.
 
It is the Blessed Virgin Mary, the mother who accompanies us on our journey to come to Jesus Christ.
 
It is the Mother who, by connecting our heart to her heart, enables us to merge ourselves in Christ, in His thoughts and intentions, in His will.
 
In this perspective, we want to open ourselves for the consecration to the Queen of Peace, aware that Mary wants our salvation and the salvation of our brothers.
 
This is a path of holiness that we must go through with the rosary in hand, in contemplating the mysteries, which are otherwise undecipherable. Christians find the light of life and the history of mankind which, this evening, we entrust to the motherly love of the Queen of Peace.
 
To this Queen, we entrust our spouses and families, so that the tenderness of true love, the serenity of a dignified labor, and a generosity and the gift of life may not fail.
 
To this Queen, we entrust our young people so that the will to adhere to Christ, the only one who can help them in deliberating and planning of their future, will not be extinguished.
 
To this Queen, we entrust our priests, the consecrated ones, and the seminarians, so that they may always be ready and faithful in responding to their vocation.
 
To this Queen, we entrust those who are sick, lonely and marginalized, humiliated and desperate; those who are undermined, but the thought of life is an unbearable burden.
 
To this Queen, we entrust our cities, our countries, and those who administer them, so that they may never lack the courage to strive for the common good.
 
To this Queen, we entrust our diocesan churches so that the Lord Jesus may be the source of their actions, their service, their teaching, and their mission.
 
To this Queen, we entrust our lives, seeking the grace to be protected and to receive the immeasurable good of faith, hope and charity of Christ the Lord.



Amen and Amen!!!

Supplication to the Queen of the Holy Rosary:


“O Blessed Rosary of Mary, sweet chain which unites us to God, bond of love which unites us to the angels, tower of salvation against the assaults of Hell, safe port in our universal shipwreck, we will never abandon you. You will be our comfort in the hour of death: yours our final kiss as life ebbs away. And the last word from our lips will be your sweet name, O Queen of the Rosary of Pompei, O dearest Mother, O Refuge of Sinners, O Sovereign Consoler of the Afflicted. May you be everywhere blessed, today and always, on earth and in heaven”. (Blessed Bartolo Longo)

We commit ourselves to praying the Rosary for your intentions, dearest Mary, our Mother, as You enter this final battle with Satan, for the sake of souls. We will take up the Rosary as an obligation that we will fulfill with great joy! Together we will pray for Your Triumph over Satan, and for the coming of a New Time of Peace which has been given to us through You, Oh Clement, O Loving, O Sweet Virgin Mary!! Amen

Glory be to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit! As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen

Now we pray our Rosary for today! The Sorrowful Mysteries!! 

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!
