Note (By a soul):
This following statement and the accompanying commentary on Spiritual Communion are late as I worked on both a few weeks ago. However, I had another physical illness these past three weeks and I ended up in intensive care this past week with a life threatening condition. Yesterday, I was moved from the hospital to the rehabilitation center so they can continue to stabilize me and it is uncertain when I will be discharged again. So, I am sorry to be delayed in my blog emails again. I thank everyone for their well wishes and prayers. I am very grateful. God bless.

Blessings beloved ones,

I, “a soul” of MaryRefugeOfSouls, am making this statement, because I need to clear up some points of beliefs that followers of this blog need to be made aware of moving forward. This is because I want followers to perfectly understand my stance on some important matters, so they can make the best discernment on heavenly messages that are posted on this blog, MaryRefugeOfSouls.

One, I, “a soul” of MaryRefugeOfSouls, believe that Holy Communion in the hand is a sacrilege (a type of liturgical abuse), and is a practice being used by Lucifer to bring down the Catholic Church.

Two, I am against and will not put any heavenly messages on the blog that suggest that Holy Communion in the hand is alright.

Three, I am sorry for any previous messages that may have been posted on this blog that suggested otherwise. In December 2021, God shared with me personally that Holy Communion in the hand is a sacrilege and He asked me to pray for the chosen messengers that are being deceived by satan on this matter. This is a matter that will be fully corrected by God during the Warning (Illumination of Conscience).

Four, people have asked me to comment on the message given to John Leary on June 19, 2022, which suggests that Holy Communion in the hand is acceptable to God. I am sorry that this message was posted on my blog, because I strongly oppose any exception to Holy Communion being received on the tongue by a priest.

Five, please understand that at this current time, I have volunteers assisting me with posting the daily messages to this blog, MaryRefugeOfSouls. This means that heavenly messages that if I had discerned personally and would be opposed to, may accidentally get posted to this blog. I am sorry for this, as I do not want to lead any person spiritually astray. I will strive more diligently to make sure this does not happen.

Six, people need to understand that when discerning, you need to discern at the individual message level and not take for granted that the message is OK simply because it is received by a well respected chosen messenger. Before I read any heavenly message, I pray for discernment. People can be receiving heavenly messages for 20 or 30 years, and still be deceived by Lucifer. He never gives up trying to interfere with divine interventions on earth.

Seven, I have noticed a very critical tipping point has been reached during the past three months. Starting in September 2021, I noticed that Lucifer was able to do certain overt attacks in spiritual warfare that normally, he did not have the demonic power to do outside of certain seasons of increased occult activity such as Halloween. This was shocking to me because it meant Lucifer reached a critical mass of daily occult power to do such heightened, embolden spiritual attacks.

Now, in the past three months, I have detected that Lucifer has directly interfered with the visions given to three well known and well respected chosen messengers. These are visionaries who have publicly given messages for 20-30 years. This is also shocking to me, because it means another tipping point has been reached in Lucifer gaining occult power. Now, he is capable of interfering with apparitions of Jesus and the Blessed Virgin Mary in a way that he was incapable of a few months ago.

For this reason, I am issuing this public statement to all chosen messengers that each person needs to review their discernment techniques, because Lucifer has upped his game and they are not going to work anymore. Even visionaries of 20-30 years have to be especially careful, because long-standing tried and true methods against satan may no longer work. I beg each of you to do this, because Lucifer seems to be interfering now with missions of long-standing visions / apparitions, which can have serious repercussions with prophecy followers and the Divine Plan.

Eight, I want to finally conclude on this fine point. I am not opposed to the mission of John Leary or any chosen messenger that I feature on this blog, MaryRefugeOfSouls. I am actually very supportive of John Leary and his wife, who make a wonderful team in their mission for the Lord. However, because of how I discern, I can be opposed strongly to individual messages of such chosen messengers. I do not claim perfect discernment and if any claims that I may make can be proven wrong, I am certainly willing to revisit anything that I say, even changing or updating public statements.

Thank you, my dearly beloved followers. I hope that this statement is helpful for everyone.

God bless,
A soul

Additional Note:
People have asked me to comment on the June 29, 2022 message given to John Leary about Holy Communion in the hand. People need to use their own discernment regarding this message. The Lord has led me in my personal journey to approach such a practice as a sacrilege and I have many private stories where the Lord protected me from receiving in the hand by miraculous means rather than commit any sin or semblance of a sin on this matter. One story took place on Easter. Another story took place at a conference involving thousands of people where the Lord enabled me to receive from a priest despite contrary odds. And another time involved another against all odds story where I was the last person and all the lay ministers ran out of the sacred Host. So, the priest came down from the altar to have me receive before the entire congregation. The Lord has protected me time and again to only receive from the priest in very visible, miraculous ways. So, I cannot promote or endorse such a practice which I personally know that it is wrong. By only receiving on the tongue from a priest and doing Spiritual Communions, you can never be wrong and you are always on the narrow path to Jesus. However, by entertaining an exception (liturgical abuse), you run the risk of potentially offending Our Lord or losing out on special graces for those who are more reverent to the Holy Eucharist. God bless.
