CLUES ABOUT THE GREAT MIRACLE AND
SIGNS OF GARABANDAL AND MEDJUGORJE

By a soul

(May 10, 2017)

I dedicate this special writing to Our Lady, Most Holy Queen of Heaven and of earth and the guardian angels of the world.  All Glory Be to God!

As I have revealed to followers of this blog, MaryRefugeOfHolyLove, in January of this year, I was given several graces of infused knowledge by God.  These graces were given to me over a period of time while I was undergoing much major spiritual warfare.  And it has taken me a few months of discernment to understand what was revealed to me while I have been under constant demonic attack.

Finally, through the intervention of intercessory prayer, I was able to write my first special commentary on Easter Sunday.  It is called:

“After The Great Warning – Understanding Fatima, Garabandal, And Medjugorje”
https://maryrefugeofholylove.com/after-the-great-warning-understanding-fatima-garabandal-and-medjugorje-by-a-soul/

And in that special commentary, among other things, I described the sequence of the unveiling of the Secrets of Garabandal and of Medjugorje and how it all relates to the Marian apparitions at Fatima.  And I wrote about how The Great Warning – Illumination of Conscience unlocks the Secrets of The End Times and about how the conditional Great Chastisement from God can be avoided by mankind.

And in particular, I wrote about how important it is that Pope Francis and Pope Benedict XVI fulfill three tasks for the Glory of God:

  • Dually consecrate with all Catholic bishops the nation of Russia to The Immaculate Heart of Mary after leading the entire Christian Church on the 5-month Peace Plan as outlined by Our Lady of Fatima;
  • Dually proclaim the Fifth and Final Marian Dogma of Mary as Advocate, Co-Redemptrix, and Mediatrix of All Grace; and
  • Dually declare that the teachings and spirituality of the heavenly messages at Holy Love Ministry (http://www.holylove.org) are part of the universal teachings of the Magisterium of the Catholic Church and lead all the faithful in pursuing the spiritual journey of personal holiness through The Most Sacred Chambers of The United Hearts of The Most Holy Trinity in Union with The Immaculate Heart of Mary.

I also said in that special commentary that if these three conditions are fulfilled by Pope Francis, Pope Benedict XVI, and the Catholic Church, that God would grant many special blessings to mankind.  I said that most of mankind would be converted to God, a nuclear war would be averted, the conditional Great Chastisement would not take place, and God would remove the antichrist from the face of the earth.

I also said that the Great Era of Peace would descend upon the earth, which would coincide with the Second Coming of Our Lord, Jesus Christ, sometime after the Great Miracle of Garabandal has taken place.

I do not know when the Second Coming of Our Lord, Jesus Christ, will happen.  No one on earth, nor in Heaven, knows the happening of this Great Glorious Event.  It is only known by Our Heavenly Father.  All Glory to God!

Meanwhile, I also shared in that special commentary that I have other things that I must write about for Jesus and Mary to further the Divine Plan on earth.

I hope to be able to write special commentaries about the antichrist, the Battle of Armageddon, the Eternal Law of Divine Justice, and the Three Days of Darkness, among other things, when I am given the graces from Heaven to share them with you all.  I am only awaiting the divine timing of revealing these things to mankind.

Meanwhile, for this special writing, I am going to share some things that were revealed to me by St. Gabriel the Archangel in January.  I am going to provide some clues about the Great Miracle that will take place at Garabandal; as well as clues about the Sign at Garabandal and at Medjugorje.

However, before I share these clues in this special writing, I need to write a disclaimer for all readers of this love-note.

I was told by St. Gabriel what the Great Miracle, the Sign of Garabandal, and the Sign of Medjugorje, are.  However, I was experiencing major spiritual warfare at the same time that this information was being conveyed to me.

I do not claim perfect discernment; and, in truth, I am still discerning about what was revealed to me.  There are certain aspects of what was revealed to me that I am uncertain about and I only know that the authenticity of what was revealed to me will only be confirmed by God at The Great Warning – Illumination of Conscience.

I know fully well that satan can disguise himself as an angel of the Light and so, I only reveal these few clues now, trusting in The Lord that He will reconcile all Truth at The Great Warning.

And if what was told to me by St. Gabriel is indeed the Truth, then I will reveal more after The Great Warning has taken place, in preparation for these Great Acts of God to take place on earth before mankind.

Here are the clues that I can reveal to you all now (please use your best discernment):

The Great Miracle of Garabandal

The visionaries of Garabandal have said that: “To be complete, there must be the Warning and the Miracle. It is all one message.”

The above statement by the visionaries is true.  There is a connection between The Great Warning – Illumination of Conscience and the Great Miracle of Garabandal.

The Great Miracle will serve as a reminder of the mystical experience that everyone on earth will have felt during The Great Warning.  The Great Miracle is related to The Great Warning.

The Great Miracle is something that exists in eternity before The Throne of God.

The Great Miracle gives Great Glory to God.

The Great Miracle involves The Most Holy Eucharist.

The Great Miracle affirms all teachings, all truths and all aspects of the Universal (Catholic) Faith.

The Great Miracle explains the meaning for Creation.

The Great Miracle showcases the supernatural truths of hell, Purgatory, and Heaven; and the reality of the Communion of the Saints.

The Great Miracle affirms all genuine Marian apparitions and Our Lady as Queen of All Hearts.

The Great Miracle IS the Triumph of The Immaculate Heart of Mary and proves that hell will never prevail against the Catholic Church established by Our Lord, Jesus Christ.

The Great Miracle humiliates satan.

The Great Miracle IS Divine Mercy and Divine Love.

If Pope Francis witnesses the Great Miracle as it is happening at Garabandal, the mystical experience will convert his heart and he will dually consecrate with Pope Benedict XVI and all Catholic bishops the nation of Russia to The Immaculate Heart of Mary.

The Great Sign of Garabandal

The Great Sign of Garabandal is an impression of a single moment captured during the mystical experience of the Great Miracle of Garabandal.

The Great Sign involves The Most Holy Eucharist.

The Great Sign is meant to convert all unbelievers and to encourage all souls to decide and live for God and follow His Divine Will and His Divine Plan.

The Great Sign of Medjugorje

The Great Sign of Medjugorje will serve as a reminder of The Great Warning – Illumination of Conscience, the Great Miracle and Great Sign of Garabandal.

The Great Sign involves The Most Holy Eucharist.

The Great Sign is related to Fatima and Our Lady as Rosa Mystica (the priesthood).

I love You Lord.

May I always love You.

God bless!

Amen.

Writing about Holy Love Ministry and the Spiritual Journey of the United Hearts of Jesus and Mary – MaryRefugeOfHolyLove

May 8, 2017 – Mary, Mediatrix of All Grace

Dear Beloved Blog Followers:

It is with much joy that I write this short love-note to you all.  As many of you know, since January, I have been having a “rough time” with mister party-pooper (satan).  Thankfully, though, due to the many intercessory prayers that have been said for me and the blog, MaryRefugeOfHolyLove, I have been able to move past the attacks and write my commentaries for Jesus and Mary, as well as get back “on-track” with my work on the blog.

The two commentaries that I wrote that resulted directly from intercessory prayer are (and more are on the way):

Special Commentary (Easter 2017): After The Great Warning – Understanding Fatima, Garabandal, And Medjugorje

Special Commentary (Divine Mercy Sunday 2017): Understanding the Syrian Conflict and the March Towards World War III

I am so grateful for all this prayer and the continuing love from all of you.  It has enabled me to do things that I could not do alone with only me praying for myself and the blog.  Thank you so much for your support in prayer.  You have been instrumental in the survival of this blog!

I will tell you all, but mister party-pooper almost convinced me that all my writings were of “no merit” and “no good” because I wrote them with “spiritual pride” in my heart; and so, I took down all my writings off the blog and had intended to delete all my work, but sheer heavenly grace intervened and most of the writings ended up being saved.

I am so grateful to God for His grace towards me.  I am so grateful that I was not stupid, and it is solely because of intercessory prayer that my works were saved.

And so, in the past weeks, I have been adding my writings back to the blog.  In particular, I want people to be aware of my writing on this blog page that I added back today:

Holy Love Ministry
https://maryrefugeofholylove.com/holy-love-ministry/

The writing is titled, “Two Love-Letters Explaining Holy Love Ministry” and I think that people who have read my “A Love-Letter Explaining Locutions To The World” on this blog page (https://maryrefugeofholylove.com/locutions-to-the-world/), would particularly enjoy reading it.  The title is self-explanatory.

Also, I want to encourage people to read my free eBooks–the links can also be found on the “Holy Love Ministry” blog page.  The eBooks are compilations of my various writings, commentaries, and love-letters over the past several years.

The reason I want to encourage others to read my free eBooks, is because I know that many people are struggling in following their own personal spiritual journey through the Most Sacred Chambers of the United Hearts of Jesus and Mary.  I am offering the eBooks to help others in their spiritual path.

I, a soul, do not claim to be an expert.  In truth, Our Lord Is the Only One who knows my spiritual state and in which Sacred Chamber that my soul resides in.  And I will be honest and say that I seem to find myself perpetually stuck in the First Chamber–or, at least, I think I am…  But, I will also be honest and say, that Our Lord and Our Lady have blessed me with a few mystical experiences that have given me an idea as to what the other Sacred Chambers might be like.

I do not consider myself to be a mystic.  Mystical experiences are not normal for me (they are not a daily occurrence, etc.).

I also do not consider myself to be a particularly holy person either.  Thanks Be To God for the Sacrament of Confession!!

But, I offer my free eBooks to others to help them along the spiritual journey.  It is my hope that by opening up about my own personal experience, it will help others who will want to adopt the same spiritual practices to become closer to God.

Also, feel free to share feedback with me by contacting me through the blog.  I do not get much feedback from my writings, as I do not allow comments on my blog posts and blog pages (I think that they are too distracting for the purposes of this blog).  However, if you have questions or need further clarification, I’m willing to help (provided I have the time depending on how many questions I get).  My greatest joy is sharing My Love for Jesus and Mary with everyone.  That’s why this blog exists in the first place.  Glory Be To God!

Finally, I want to share a few heavenly messages from Locutions To The World to inspire you all.  God bless!

LOCUTIONS TO THE WORLD

“A New Divine Fire Clothing Us in the Sun”

MARY

The gifts that I want to offer the world are overwhelming, far greater than any gifts since I gave the world my Son, Jesus Christ. These gifts are of every kind and in the highest degree. I want to restore the earth and bring back its fullness. But, especially, I want to restore man to the highest level of integrity from which he has fallen. Then there will be a new heaven and a new earth. Many will be skeptical, asking, “How can this be? Will the Father create again?” I say, “All things are possible to God”.

Two Different Fires

There are two ways that this can take place. Either mankind allows itself to be lifted up into a mystical union with God or God himself must act to restore his creation. This second purification will take place by a different divine fire.

Let me be clear. A new heavens and a new earth can only be accomplished by a divine fire. In the days of Noah, the purification came by the floods. But God promised never again to use water to purify. This time, the purification must come by God’s fire. However, two ways exist for mankind to experience divine fire, the way of the saints and the way of Sodom and Gomorrah.

The Saints

Every saint was purified by entering into God’s divine fire of love. This was their quest and why they walked the road of perfection. Some went off to the desert or to a monastery. Most just remained in their daily life, serving in their home or in their place of work. Although they were known to be devout, they seemed no different from other people. Quietly, though, and in a hidden manner, the divine fire was burning within them, purifying them and lifting up all their thoughts and desires to God. This is the divine fire that I would give to whomever would seek it. Once received, the person need only be faithful, allowing the fire to purify their thoughts, words and deeds and to lift their hearts to the Father, just as the fire always burns towards heaven. This is what I proclaim, “I will offer to every believer the graces formerly reserved for the greatest saints, so all, from the least to the greatest, will be clothed in the sun as I am clothed in the Son.”

A Powerful Stream of “Yes”

MARY

There is a powerful stream, filled with every blessing which flows in the very center of human history. This stream also flows in the center of every human heart. This stream exists for every person in the whole world. The stream is so powerful that once the person yields to it, it will carry the person along and keep them safe. It is the saving stream. This is the stream of God’s will which I will explain by easy to understand images.

Some people think that God’s will is just words, like commandments or warnings given by parents to their children. Really, God’s will is a power, a force that is irresistible if only the person consents and says “yes”. That is all God needs, O reader, your permission.

A Flow of Images

I will continue with my images. All the world was created by the power flowing from God’s will. All creation was united to God by the power of this will. Then came forth a new word, a strange word, a word never heard before. Mankind said “No” to God’s will and sin entered the world. God’s powerful stream with all of its healing powers, with all of its powers to bless man, no longer was at the center of human creation or even at the center of each human heart. “No” had replaced “Yes”. Rebellion had replaced obedience, and, unfortunately, curses had replaced blessings. So, for centuries the human race was cursed and earth became a place of suffering and sorrow, a valley of tears.

A “Yes”

Then, I gave birth to Jesus, who always was a “Yes” to God’s will, even to his death on the cross. A new stream of God’s will began to flow and I was its first recipient. It flowed in the middle of my hearts and, later, in the hearts of the believers. However, it did not flow, as it formerly did, in the center of human history because the world rejected him (even Israel rejected him).

Today’s Situation

This is the way it is today. This powerful stream of God’s will flows within some people and not within others. Also, this stream is not flowing in the center of human history because many cultures reject it. But a time will come, when the heavenly Father will give all of mankind another moment, another opportunity that this powerful stream will once again flow in the center of human history. Obviously, the gift can only be given with extraordinary signs and divine powers, but this will take place (more quickly than many realize).

A Personal Gift

The following, however, is my teaching. Even before these extraordinary events, the Father will pour out this powerful, life-giving stream from my Immaculate Heart. This stream will bestow unimaginable blessings upon all who open their hearts to receive. Most important, no one has to wait for that future, extraordinary event. That is what I reveal today. This stream already exists and anyone who wants that stream to flow in the center of their heart need only seek it in my Immaculate Heart. So, come into my heart in your prayers and your desires. If you come, I will promise to teach you how to open your heart to this powerful stream of Gods’ will.

“Having Your Own Locutions”

MARY

In the midst of these problems, how do you find the way to peace?  I will speak.  Listen to my promptings.  Where do I speak?  In the quiet of your heart.  I begin right now.  Stop and listen.  Do not fear if I chastise you.  Some parts of your life might have to change.  They are just obstacles that need to be swept away so you can see the road ahead.

I speak in these locutions but they are external words, general words of guidance for all the world.  I promise to also speak to every heart.  How do I speak? What words do I use?  From reading the locutions, you know that I speak clearly and simply.  I do not use big words but little words that even a child can understand.

You also know that I point out what needs to be changed but always with words of encouragement.  You know that my words are filled with promises and hope.  I speak gently and invite, so no one is scared away.  This is how I will speak to you in your own heart.

Can I not pour out the gift of locutions upon the whole world?  I do not mean that I will give you great words that should be published.  I will give you little words to guide you on your path.  Once in a while, I will give you words for others, for your family or your friends. At times, I will want you to do a work for me.  Then, I will speak more strongly in your heart, when you are better prepared.

How faithful you have been in reading these locutions.  By doing so, you have learned to listen to my words spoken in your own heart.  Be still. Pray.  Go into your own heart.  You will find me waiting there for you.

Feast of Mary, Refuge of Holy Love – 20th Anniversary

Our Lady comes as Refuge of Holy Love with a radiant light around Her and many angels in the light. She says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“Today, I offer you My Heart, Refuge of sinners, Fortress of strength and Sanctuary of peace. The door to My Heart is always open to one and all. This humble Refuge is but a stepping stone to the Majestic Heart of Jesus, wherein Truth abides.”

“Dear children, you are never in any situation alone, but always have recourse to the Refuge of Holy Love that is My Heart. My Heart is always united to the Heart of My Son. Every petition you place in My Heart is, therefore, passed into My Son’s Most Sacred Heart. Our Hearts are united just as we desire every heart be united.”

“Holy Love has been pronounced in this day and age in a time when hatred is trying to overtake hearts. In this country (U.S.A.), Holy Love is making certain inroads, as it is now safer to proclaim Christian ideals publicly without fear of retribution. This is a victory for Holy Love.”

“The Refuge of My Heart provides a safe haven for those who live in confusion. Holy Love dispels confusion and protects the Truth. Holy Love is Truth.”

“Do not seek further a more intricate plan for your personal holiness, protection or strength. Everything is yours through Holy Love.”

Understanding the Syrian Conflict
And the March Towards World War III

A commentary

By a soul

(4/23/17 Divine Mercy Sunday)

Introduction

Recently, I posted some heavenly messages that would be helpful to read, as they will provide greater light on the volatile conflict situation in Syria.  They can be found here:

PART ONE – Understanding the Syrian Conflict – Prophet John Leary – Book of Truth (Maria Divine Mercy) – Locutions To The World
https://maryrefugeofholylove.com/2017/04/19/part-one-understanding-the-syrian-conflict-prophet-john-leary-book-of-truth-maria-divine-mercy-locutions-to-the-world/

In this commentary, I want to explain my understanding of the Syrian conflict.  To be honest, I do not read or watch much news, as I avoid television and I am pretty much a hermit these days.  So, my understanding only comes from reading and pondering heavenly messages.  But, hopefully, this commentary will be helpful to others.  God bless!

***

Now, many people look at the Middle East and see how it is falling apart with Iran building nuclear weapons, Russia involved in Syria, the explosive growth of ISIS and terrorism, etc.  People wonder what exactly is going on…?

In the heavenly messages of Locutions To The World, Our Lady has said that the Middle East is satan’s playground.  he loves to inflict suffering, pain and death; and that the Middle East is a microcosm—a snapshot—of what satan plans to bring to the rest of the world through widespread war and poverty.  satan wants to make the whole world his playground and simply, the Middle East, is the starting point for his evil plans for the entire world.

In the heavenly messages of Locutions To The World, Our Lady has also said although one sees initially the growing conflict in Syria, Iran, etc., these countries are not the main target of satan’s agenda in the Middle East.  The main target is Israel, specifically, Jerusalem—the holy city of Jesus’ Life, Death and Resurrection.  If satan were to gain control of Israel and destroy Jerusalem, it would set back the Divine Plans of God by hundreds of years.  Many future generations of the human family would become lost, because the Light of Jerusalem would be extinguished in the world.

In truth, Our Lady has hinted that if Jerusalem were lost, it may, in fact, be an unrecoverable and irreversible situation for God…  The Divine Plan would be destroyed and nothing further could be done to bring the Light of Christianity back to mankind.  That is how grave the situation is today.

And so, what one currently sees in Syria, is not the full picture of the reality of the situation.  satan is only using conflicts in Syria and the surrounding countries of the Middle East, so he can whittle down the defenses of Israel and gain control of Jerusalem.

Israel is the goal and the target of satan’s war against mankind.  Jerusalem is his prize and if he wins the holy city, he wins the war.  It is finished.

Now, on Easter, I wrote a very special commentary called, “After The Great Warning – Understanding Fatima, Garabandal and Medjugorje” (https://maryrefugeofholylove.com/after-the-great-warning-understanding-fatima-garabandal-and-medjugorje-by-a-soul/), that would be very helpful for people to read.  I also wrote a special commentary last year called, “The Divine Plan and New Jerusalem” (https://maryrefugeofholylove.com/the-divine-plan-and-new-jerusalem/), which would also be very helpful to read.

Both special commentaries that I wrote, will help to shed light on the words that I am going to write next.  So, I want to encourage others to read them to understand my train of thought.

In the Easter commentary, I wrote about the importance of the Consecration of Russia by the Catholic Church to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.  I also tried to stress how important this Consecration of Russia is by Pope Francis and Pope Benedict XVI.  It must be done—there is no other option provided by Heaven.

Now, why is the Consecration of Russia so important, one may ask…?

The reason is this: the Consecration of Russia will stop the nuclear war—annihilation of nations of people—from happening.  It is through the nuclear war that the antichrist will gain prominence in the world, because he is the “peace-maker” who will negotiate all the peace treaties between the warring nations and because of his resulting worldwide influence, he will then gain access to the Catholic Church.  This is revealed in the Book of Truth (Maria Divine Mercy).

The nuclear war must never happen.  This is what Heaven is trying to prevent.

Russia is key, because it is trying to gain worldwide prominence in world affairs.  It wants to be the dominant world leader.  However, this country is controlled by satan and it is going about its affairs all wrongly.  Russia is trying to exert its influence through its allies in the Middle East.  However, the nation of Russia does not realize that it is only being used by its Muslim allies.

As Our Lady has spoken in Locutions To The World, ISIS, Iran, and the like, do not want equality, they want to achieve worldwide superiority and dominance.  The Muslim allies of Russia are only using the nation of Russia to maintain and spread their vice-like control over people.  They do not want to be friends with Russia—that is not the reality of the situation.

There is no human solution to the conflict in the Middle East.  Our Lady has stressed in the Locutions, that hell lit its fires starting with the “Arab Spring” in Egypt and the situation in the Middle East has passed the “point of no return.”  The fires of hell on earth can ONLY be quelled by releasing the fires of Heaven on earth.  This can ONLY come about through the Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary by the Catholic Church.

Why naming Russia specifically in the Consecration?  Why not just naming the whole world in general for world peace?

Our Lady has also said in Locutions To The World that Russia needs to know the source of its blessings.  The nation of Russia needs to know that Heaven is blessing it, particularly, by the actions of the Catholic Church.  This can only come about through widespread knowledge that the Catholic Church is consecrating Russia in particular to Mary.  It must be public and common knowledge.  The Consecration of Russia cannot be hidden under a bushel basket.

Heaven wants Unity among all Christians and all peoples.  The conversion of Russia is key for the unification of the Orthodox Church with the Catholic Church.  Our Lady has said in the Locutions that Putin will be the first person offered conversion after the Consecration of Russia takes place.  Russia has Christian roots, not Muslim roots.  Russia does not understand who truly wants to be friends with her.  The Consecration of Russia will result in Unity between the Orthodox and Catholic Churches.  Then, Unity will spread among all Christianity and eventually, Israel.

Meanwhile, something very significant started happening almost one week ago.  Last week, on Holy Saturday, the icon of the Blessed Mother as Our Lady of Kazan began weeping holy oil again in Damascus, Syria.  The last time the icon exuded holy oil was sixteen years ago during Holy Week in 2001.  The icon, Our Lady of Kazan, is actually a Russian icon, but has become also known as “Our Lady of Soufanieh.”  It is associated with approved mystic, Myrna Nazzour, who comes from a mixed Christian heritage of Orthodox and Catholic.  Myrna has experienced the stigmata and apparitions from Jesus and Mary.  The main theme of the messages is the call for Christian Unity between the Orthodox Church and Catholic Church and the call for the same Easter day between the churches.  I find it highly significant that the icon is Russian in origin, considering Heaven’s Plans for the Consecration of Russia to take place to the Immaculate Heart of Mary to avoid nuclear war; and that World War III actually begins in Syria, as revealed in the Book of Truth (Maria Divine Mercy).

Here are links to a well-written article about the icon weeping again, as well as to the official website for Our Lady of Soufanieh, which I have believed in for a longtime.  The official link can also be found on the homepage of this blog, MaryRefugeOfHolyLove, under Heavenly Resources (Links):

Spirit Daily Article: “Icon Weeping Again In Syria”
http://spiritdaily.org/blog/uncategorized/icon-weeping-again-in-syria

Our Lady of Soufanieh (Syria)
Official Website: http://www.soufanieh.com/

Also, since early February 2017, Jesus and Mary have been revealing Heaven’s intentions that the country of the United States of America, under the leadership of President Donald Trump, become a “sanctuary nation” for all Christian believers and asylum seekers.  I have included a link at the end of this commentary to several heavenly messages about this special intention, as revealed at Holy Love Ministries (http://www.holylove.org).  I have also included a link to a special message from Our Lord, Jesus Christ, at Holy Love about the actions that He desires the United Nations take in response to the humanitarian crisis in Syria.  Specifically, that the United Nations set-up a special “safe zone” for all Christians in Syria, so the people do not have to suffer.

I believe that these two requests from Heaven are highly significant, because the Great War (World War III), will start in Syria and it is only a matter of time for it to begin, as it is inevitable (all of hell’s efforts are focused on this).  The Great War can only be stopped by the Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.  All human solutions at this point are useless.  Only Heaven’s intervention can stop hell’s march towards World War III on the face of the earth.

This is why it must be made known to Pope Francis and Pope Benedict XVI about the urgent need for the Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, particularly, in the aftermath of The Great Warning (Illumination of Conscience), during which the antichrist will be trying to exert his power in the chaos and confusion that will surface on earth at that time.  Pope Francis and Pope Benedict XVI need to know full-well Heaven’s Plans for the welfare of mankind.  The Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary must take place to stop the nuclear war (annihilation of nations) and the rise of the antichrist in global affairs.

However, if the Consecration of Russia by the pope does not take place, is there any hope left for mankind?  Are all things hopeless for mankind?

No, there is always hope from Heaven for mankind.  God and Our Lady would not leave us without hope during the Great Tribulation.

As I have stated in my Easter commentary, Our Lady has many Divine Plans—contingencies—due to mankind’s free-will choices in the aftermath of The Great Warning (Illumination of Conscience).  So, if Pope Francis rejects his appointed role in the Divine Plan, there is a contingency for this—the coming of the Two Witnesses of Revelation.  (See my writing, “The Two Witnesses,” https://maryrefugeofholylove.com/writings-by-a-soul/the-two-witnesses/).

In particular, one of the Two Witnesses is a man—a Catholic priest who will become known as the “Pope of Fatima.”  He will be raised up to lead the Remnant Church by extraordinary supernatural intervention, which will indicate that he is clearly favored by Heaven and leave no doubts among people that he is the chosen Pope of Fatima.  His short reign will consist of consecrating Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and eventually dying a martyr’s death in Jerusalem (according to the vision of the Third Secret of Our Lady of Fatima).  After 3 and ½ days, life will return to his body and he will be raised up before an astonished world.  Then, the Pope of Fatima will ascend to Heaven as witnessed by all, which eventually leads to unification between Christianity and Judaism and a return of the papacy from Rome to Jerusalem, as it always was meant to be.

Also, I want to mention a further footnote about the Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.  If Pope Francis rejects doing the Consecration of Russia, it will be impossible for all faithful Catholic Bishops to do the consecration at the same moment in time.  However, Heaven has planned for this possible eventuality, too.  On September 18, 2007, God the Father provided a prayer for the Consecration of the World to the United Hearts of the Most Holy Trinity in Union with the Immaculate Heart of Mary.  It was given in a series of heavenly messages at Holy Love Ministries and I have included a link to more information about it at the end of this commentary.  The particular uniqueness of this Consecration of the World to the United Hearts is the fact that it does not have to be coordinated at a particular day and time.  It can be accomplished immediately once a church leader is aware of it.

Thus, if the Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary fails to take place, God the Father will accept in lieu the Consecration of the World to the United Hearts.

Conclusion

It is my hope that this commentary helps many people.  That is the sole reason that I have written it.

I want to thank everyone who has been praying for me and the success of this blog, MaryRefugeOfHolyLove.  Ever since I asked for intercessory help in my Easter commentary, the effects of grace have been immediate and clear.  I have been able to return to singing my love-songs (I like to praise My Love in music), and I have real joy and true peace in my heart.

I have been able to write this commentary today in peace with very little set-backs.  I am so grateful for all the help everyone has given to me; and I continue to ask for intercessory prayers, because I believe God and Our Lady desire that I continue writing more commentaries.

In particular, my next commentary will be about the antichrist and will reveal many of hell’s secrets.  It is an important commentary that needs to be written, because it will break satan’s stranglehold over mankind, especially, if the writing becomes common knowledge in the aftermath of The Great Warning (Illumination of Conscience).

There are other commentaries that I believe that Our Lord and Our Lady desire me to write as well, such as on the Law of Divine Justice, Three Days of Darkness and the Divine Will, etc.  However, whether I am able to write all these commentaries in a timely manner and in peace and with clarity of thought, is directly tied to intercessory prayer.  So, I continue to ask for help and I thank any person who can respond to my prayer need.  God bless!

In Christ’s Love,
a soul

New Special Commentary (Easter 2017) – After The Great Warning – Understanding Fatima, Garabandal and Medjugorje – MaryRefugeOfHolyLove

/ a soul

Easter 2017

Dear Beloved Blog Followers:

Happy Easter!  It is the two year anniversary of this blog, MaryRefugeOfHolyLove!

It is with much joy and love in my heart that I share a new special commentary with you all that I hope everyone will take time to read and share with others.  It is called:

SPECIAL COMMENTARY – After The Great Warning – Understanding Fatima, Garabandal And Medjugorje – By a soul
https://maryrefugeofholylove.com/after-the-great-warning-understanding-fatima-garabandal-and-medjugorje-by-a-soul/

This special commentary almost did not get written by me, but this past week, when a devoted blog follower found out that I was struggling spiritually, he offered intense prayer and sacrificial suffering from his chronic physical illness for me.  This act of true charity on his part enabled me to loosen the grip (stranglehold) that satan had on me.

I am truly indebted to his acts of kindness towards me and I ask for prayers for him “M” and his family, especially, his grandson “S” who will be receiving First Holy Communion/Confirmation on May 18th and desires one day to be a priest.  Thanks be to God!

I truly hope that all who read this special commentary will be blessed by God and helped by my words.  I offer this special commentary All for the Greater Glory of God and Our Lady.  God bless!

In Christ’s Love,

“They gave Pope Francis four years to ‘make the Church over again.’ Here’s how he’s tried”

/ a soul

Dear Blog Followers:

I read a very well-written article at LifeSiteNews that I believe every inquiring, honest, faithful Catholic has to read.

I also believe that it should be read by every priest.

It is a sobering 4-year assessment of Pope Francis and the things he has done openly in the Catholic Church since his election.

It also discusses the events that surrounded the election of Pope Francis, which are startling to read.

It is written by Pete Baklinski, a Canadian-based reporter for LifeSiteNews. He has a B.A. in liberal arts from Thomas Aquinas College and a masters in theology (STM) from the International Theological Institute.

Here is the article link:

“They gave Pope Francis four years to ‘make the Church over again.’ Here’s how he’s tried.”

(Three days after “Amoris Laetitia” was published by the Vatican)

Mary, Refuge of Holy Love says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“When a leader delegates important moral decisions to those under him, he weakens his own authority and strengthens the authority of his underlings. Moral decisions in Church circles as important as who is worthy of receiving Holy Communion if they are remarried without an annulment, should not be left to Bishops. This should not even be an issue. It has been decided by Church doctrine. Far better would be to investigate the spirituality of some Bishops.”

“These things cannot be left unsaid, but must be brought out into the open. Heaven does not believe in cover-ups.”

(St. Athanasius)

JESUS

“My people, today’s St. Athanasius fought against heresies that denied My Divinity as a God-man. He was a courageous man to defend the teachings of the faith at Nicea. This is the creed that you recite and believe at Sunday Mass. I also call My faithful to defend My Commandments and Church teachings on the sexual sins as mortal sins. Those people, who commit acts of fornication, adultery, homosexual sins, or use birth control devices or pills, are committing mortal sins, and they need to be confessed in Confession before receiving Me in Holy Communion. These are all serious sins against the Sixth Commandment. Do not accept any teachings that violate My Sixth Commandment. You will be seeing a division coming in My Church between a schismatic church and My faithful remnant. You have souls at risk of going to hell for not cleansing these mortal sins from their souls. The schismatic church will be teaching that the sexual sins are no longer mortal sins, so be aware of what is coming. Live according to My laws of love, and you will have eternal life with Me in heaven.”

Our Lady of Fatima
The First and Second Parts of the Secret
As written in Sister Lucia’s Third Memoir
August 31, 1941

“…Well, the secret is made up of three distinct parts, two of which I am now going to reveal.

The first part is the vision of hell.

Our Lady showed us a great sea of fire which seemed to be under the earth. Plunged in this fire were demons and souls in human form, like transparent burning embers, all blackened or burnished bronze, floating about in the conflagration, now raised into the air by the flames that issued from within themselves together with great clouds of smoke, now falling back on every side like sparks in a huge fire, without weight or equilibrium, and amid shrieks and groans of pain and despair, which horrified us and made us tremble with fear. The demons could be distinguished by their terrifying and repulsive likeness to frightful and unknown animals, all black and transparent. This vision lasted but an instant. How can we ever be grateful enough to our kind heavenly Mother, who had already prepared us by promising, in the first Apparition, to take us to heaven. Otherwise, I think we would have died of fear and terror.

We then looked up at Our Lady, who said to us so kindly and so sadly:

“You have seen hell where the souls of poor sinners go. To save them, God wishes to establish in the world devotion to my Immaculate Heart. If what I say to you is done, many souls will be saved and there will be peace. The war is going to end: but if people do not cease offending God, a worse one will break out during the Pontificate of Pius XI. When you see a night illumined by an unknown light, know that this is the great sign given you by God that he is about to punish the world for its crimes, by means of war, famine, and persecutions of the Church and of the Holy Father. To prevent this, I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart, and the Communion of reparation on the First Saturdays. If my requests are heeded, Russia will be converted, and there will be peace; if not, she will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred; the Holy Father will have much to suffer; various nations will be annihilated. In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, and she shall be converted, and a period of peace will be granted to the world”.

“Sin can be forgiven when you are alive. Not after death”
Wednesday, September 26th, 2012 @ 22:12

My dearly beloved daughter, I allow you this intense physical suffering to save more souls today. Offer this pain for those selected souls you must help Me salvage. This pain will not last long, but when you are relieved, know that many souls were saved from the fires of Hell and are now in Purgatory awaiting purification.

As a victim soul you must accept that I can allow you moments of suffering to help save the souls of God’s children. You will, some day, meet these souls and then you will understand how much happiness this brings My Father. Know that when you suffer, I suffer with you in order to easy your pain. You are not alone. When you feel you cannot breath, this is the same feeling of suffocation felt by souls who, after death, face the fumes of the fires of Hell.

If only people knew the Truth of life after death. After the soul leaves the body, whether it is in a state of Grace or not, Satan torments through the power of seduction. He tries, even then, to draw souls to him. Prayer for such souls is very important.

I draw souls towards My Light. But only those who are in a State of Grace can withstand the Power of My Light of Mercy. If they are not pure of soul then they must be cleansed in Purgatory.

There are, My daughter, many layers in Purgatory and, depending on the sins committed by the soul, they will be filled with the cleansing Fire of the Holy Spirit.

Purgatory is painful for the soul and those who have to spend time there feel it like a physical pain as though they were still alive.

Let no man underestimate the sacrifices needed to keep their souls in a state worthy of My Father’s Kingdom.

My Father loves all His children but souls must earn the right to be fit to enter My Father’s Kingdom. To be worthy they must redeem themselves in My Eyes while they are still alive. They must atone for their sins with a sincere heart.

Even at the point of death, a sinner can avail of My Great Mercy by asking Me to forgive him his sins. I will snatch him and take him into My Arms. I will then pour out My Mercy over him and then take him by the hand to the Gates of Paradise.

Sin can be forgiven when you are alive. Not after death.

“Mother of Salvation: My Son, Jesus Christ, will be betrayed by another Judas and one with great authority”
Wednesday, April 9th, 2014 @ 15:30

My dear child, when Judas Iscariot betrayed my Son, Jesus Christ, it had far-reaching consequences. Because he was one of my Son’s closest allies, and as a member of His precious apostles, his betrayal was very painful for my Son. Because he, a traitor, came from within my Son’s Domain, this meant that doubts crept in amongst those who were unsure as to whether or not my Son was, indeed, the True Messiah. The doubts spread and many of His apostles and followers felt confused, lost and afraid. They knew that once He was seized by His enemies, the Truth would be questioned and then denied. They also knew that, were they to defend my Son publicly, they would also suffer and could have ended up having to endure the same punishment meted out to Him. They knew also that they would not have had the courage to stand defiantly against His enemies, for fear of ridicule.

So, will the betrayal of my Son, from within His Church on Earth be the same. My Son will be betrayed by another Judas and one with great authority, from within His Church on Earth. When this, the second greatest betrayal, since Judas Iscariot sold my Son for thirty pieces of silver, takes place, it will make people of every race, nation and Christian faith, question the Truth. This betrayal will also have far-reaching consequences, because it will bring into question every single aspect of my Son’s Divinity. When this happens, the Truth will collapse. In its place, a corpse will be raised up, rotten to the core, without any sign of life. A dead doctrine will be raised and dressed up with all the false attributes associated with my Son, but it will bear no fruit. Yet, it will seem like a new conversion.

True conversion comes from people’s love for God, powered by the Gift of the Holy Spirit and by their own free will. This new doctrine will be foisted upon the world, without your free will. Reject it and you will be punished by my Son’s enemies.

Those who betray my Son in the final days will have no life. Those who don’t betray Him will live forever in the Glory of God.

St. John Vianney comes and bows towards me. He says,

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“Today, I come to speak, yet again, to all priests. Jesus regards the Holy Father, Bishops and Cardinals as priests first. He looks at their hearts and judges the fulfillment of their vocations as to first and foremost the holiness of their priesthood. So many fail Him – so many! Sadly, those in power do not want these disappointments ever mentioned or brought to light; yet, they are real!”

“The priest must first and foremost be in love with the Truth of the Faith. He must be committed to making the sacraments available to his flock. He must realize that he is responsible for leading his flock to salvation. He must support Church dogma and doctrine. He must not call Dogma and Doctrine by any other name hoping to minimize their importance. The priest is the link between Heaven and earth for his flock. He must rid himself of self-interest and live for others.”

“He is not a social director or a financial director. These things must be left for others.”

“What I see missing in priestly vocations today is a genuine interest in the spiritual well-being of each one in their flock. Vocations within parishes would flourish if this would change! As it is, many vocations are lost due to the poor example given by priests.”

“I can come here* and speak, but if the ones I am addressing do not listen and believe, the grace of my words is lost forever.”

He bows again and leaves.

Read 1 Peter 5:2-4+

Synopsis: Encouragement of shepherds of the church (priests and bishops) to tend their flocks in the pattern of the Chief Shepherd (Jesus Christ) – with Divine Love and Mercy – not lording over under constraint of obedience or for self-gain.

Tend the flock of God that is your charge, not by constraint but willingly, not for shameful gain but eagerly, not as domineering over those in your charge but being examples to the flock. And when the chief Shepherd is manifested you will obtain the unfading crown of glory.

Feast of Dedication of Basilica of St. Mary Major – Blessed Mother’s True Birthday

Our Lady comes as Our Lady of Grace. She says,

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“The good Cure (Cure de Ars) spoke to you yesterday concerning the qualities of a good priest. Some things he did not tell you are much more sobering.”

“Every day there are priests, bishops and or cardinals that slip to their perdition. Most lose their souls for what they did not do! They did not provide sound spiritual leadership to their flock. Oh yes, these are few – not many – popes in the netherworld as well, and for much the same reason. This Message will be frowned upon by Church leaders. But why? They, of all people, need to be perfected in personal holiness in order to lead others in this regard. I would not be a loving Mother if I allowed religious leaders to think that their vocation saved their soul. It is their response to their vocation which saves or condemns them. No one should believe himself to be above condemnation!”

She pauses and I (Maureen) wish Her a Happy Birthday. Her appearance then changes to gold and white. She nods and says, ‘thank you.’

“Today I wish to celebrate all life from conception to natural death. It is mankind’s lack of appreciation of life that is destroying the innocent beauty of the world as you know it. All the technology that God has enlightened man with has not deepened mankind’s’ relationship with his Creator. Rather, it is touted as a human effort apart from God. Incredibly, this same technology has led to new kinds of sin.”

“As your Mother, I use the occasion of My Birthday to warn and admonish a failing society and a disordered leadership to repent and to return to the Will of God. Choose to please God and not yourselves. If all would do this as at Nineveh, God’s Justice could still be mitigated. As it is, God’s Justice cries out for fulfillment.”

Read Jonah 3:1-10+

Then the word of the Lord came to Jonah the second time, saying, “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and proclaim to it the message that I tell you.” So Jonah arose and went to Nineveh, according to the word of the Lord. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, three days’ journey in breadth. Jonah began to go into the city, going a day’s journey. And he cried, “Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown!” And the people of Nineveh believed God; they proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them to the least of them. Then tidings reached the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, removed his robe, and covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes. And he made proclamation and published through Nineveh, “By the decree of the king and his nobles: Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste anything; let them not feed, or drink water, but let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and let them cry mightily to God; yea, let every one turn from his evil way and from the violence which is in his hands. Who knows, God may yet repent and turn from his fierce anger, so that we perish not?” When God saw what they did, how they turned from their evil way, God repented of the evil which He had said He would do to them; and He did not do it.

New Book – “Stream of Light: Mary’s Locutions to the World by Topic” from Servant Press

/ a soul

stream-of-light-marys-locutions-to-the-world-by-topic

COMMENT (by a soul):
Servant Press, the official publisher for the Volumes of Locutions To The World, recently published a new hard-copy book called, “Stream of Light: Mary’s Locutions to the World by Topic.” The book does not have any new locutions, but what the editor has done is organize various locutions surrounding the theme of the story of God’s Plan for mankind and how that plan is being realized in this present moment of human history. There are 14 chapters and each chapter has commentary alongside the locutions. The commentary includes references to other Catholic works, Holy Scripture, and the Catechism. Although I do not agree with all the conclusions drawn from the locutions in the commentary, I do still think the book is worth purchasing because it has many spiritual insights into understanding the locutions. Finally, I am very happy that Servant Press is continuing work on the locutions, is offering this book based on the locutions and I hope that more books will be forthcoming. The book can be purchased from Amazon.com and here is the link: https://www.amazon.com/Stream-Light-Marys-Locutions-World/dp/153050788X/

What Is Holy Love – Holy Love Is

***

Holy Love Ministry
http://www.holylove.org

WHAT HOLY LOVE IS

 “Holy Love is:”

  • “The Two Great Commandments of Love – to love God above all else and to love neighbor as self.”
  • “The fulfillment and the embodiment of the Ten Commandments.”
  • “The measure by which all souls will be judged.”
  • “The barometer of personal holiness.”
  • “The Gateway to the New Jerusalem.”
  • “The Immaculate Heart of Mary.”
  • “The First Chamber of the United Hearts.”
  • “The Purifying Flame of Love of Mary’s Heart that all souls must pass through.”
  • “The Refuge of Sinners and the Ark of these last days.”
  • “The source of unity and peace amongst all people and all nations.”
  • “Holy Love is God’s Divine Will.”

“Realize that only evil would be opposed to Holy Love.”
(Jesus – November 8, 2010)

THE TWO GREAT COMMANDMENTS

When the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, they assembled in a body; and one of them, a lawyer, in an attempt to trip Him up, asked Him, “Teacher, which commandment of the law is the greatest?”

Jesus said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with your whole heart, with your whole soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and first commandment. The second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments the whole law is based, and the prophets as well.”

(Matthew 22:34-40)

THE VIRTUE OF LOVE

“I am your Jesus, born Incarnate.””

I have come to speak to you about the virtue of love. Holy Love is, as you know, the Two Great Commandments: love God above all else and your neighbor as yourself. It is the embrace of all Ten Commandments. Holy Love is the Immaculate Heart of My Mother. It is the Divine Will of God.”

“Holy Love can be likened to the sun, which spills its rays over the earth enlightening the shadows of darkness. It is like the keys to the Kingdom I entrusted to My apostle Peter. It is the door to My Sacred Heart and union with Divine Love.”

“Holy Love is the harmony between man, nature, and the Creator. It is the interpretation of the law and the means of all sanctification.”

“The will of man must choose Holy Love. It is not open to debate, and stands undaunted in the face of discernment. Holy Love cannot be judged, for it is the judge.”

“Holy Love is offered in every present moment and follows the soul into eternity.”

(June 28, 1999)

THE EFFECTS OF HOLY LOVE IN THE HEART
From St. Francis de Sales

“I have come to you to speak about the effects of Holy Love in the heart.”

“Holy Love can transform the most mundane task into a powerful redemptive tool in the Hands of God.”

“Holy Love, when it is accepted in the heart, can transform darkness into the Light of Truth.”

“Holy Love can inspire victory over sin; therefore, Holy Love is the foundation of every conversion of heart.”

“Holy Love is the vehicle of surrender of free will to accept God’s Divine Will.”

“It is Holy Love which helps the soul to recognize God’s grace in every cross.”

“These are sound reasons for souls to accept these Messages and to support this Mission of Holy Love by living the Messages. To do so is to allow your heart to be transformed by Holy Love. To do so is to follow the pursuit of Holy Perfection.”

(January 14, 2012)

“Without Holy Love in the heart, good deeds, penance and reparation are hollow; for Holy Love is the foundation of holiness, righteousness and truth. It is impossible for the soul to comply with the Divine Will of the Father apart from Holy Love, for God’s Will is Holy Love.”

“Holy Love leads the soul away from focus on self to focus on God and neighbor. This leads the heart into balance with the Divine Will. The soul gradually loses sight of how everything affects him – to focus on how everything affects God and neighbor. Such a soul is a jewel in God’s Eyes and mounts swiftly up the Stairway to Holiness. This is the path to perfection.”

(January 16, 2012)

SELF-LOVE vs. HOLY LOVE

SELF-LOVE

HOLY LOVE
Is motivated towards self-advantage in thought, word, and deed. Is motivated in every thought, word, and action by love of God, and neighbor as self.
Sees only others’ faults, not his own. Considers himself on the right path—perhaps even humble and virtuous. Sees himself full of imperfections. Is always seeking to be perfected through love. Considers everyone more humble and holy than himself.
Holds a checklist in his heart of every wrong perpetrated against him. Imitates Divine Mercy as best he can. Is compassionate and forgiving.
Is quick to anger and stands vigil over his own rights making certain they are not transgressed. Is patient. Takes note of others’ needs and concerns.
Hangs on to his own opinions refusing to surrender to another viewpoint. Offers his own opinions but listens to others and lends them equal merit with his own.
Takes pride in his own achievements. May even take pride in his spiritual progress. Realizes all things proceed from God; that without God he is capable of no good thing. All good comes from grace.
Sees himself and the world as the be-all/end-all. His only pleasure is thus achieved through the world. Takes joy in storing up heavenly treasure, in growing closer to God and deeper in holiness. Knows the difference between earthly pleasures and spiritual joy.
Uses the goods of the world to satisfy self. Uses the goods of the world to satisfy quest for holiness.
Objects to every cross. Sees trials as a curse. Resents others’ good fortune. Surrenders to the cross through love as Jesus did. Sees crosses as a grace to be used to convert others.
Prays only for himself and his own needs. Prays for all in need.
Cannot accept God’s Will. Becomes bitter over trials. Accepts God’s Will with a loving heart even when difficult.

Video: A Message from U.S. President-Elect Donald J. Trump

/ a soul

Video Published 11/21/16 on YouTube

Official Description: The President-elect shares an update on the Presidential Transition, an outline of some of his policy plans for the first 100 days, and his day one executive actions.

COMMENT (by a soul):
I am really impressed by the transparency of President-Elect Donald Trump’s transition team. Everyday, I visit his GreatAgain.gov website and there are daily reports as to what he is doing to make our country great again, like the meetings he is having that day, the leaders he is talking to and the meeting agendas–he doesn’t hide anything–and there’s no need for mainstream media “spin” on things–it’s all out in the open.

President Obama and President Bush never did this. So much secrecy. It makes you wonder what the president is doing with all his time! This is really great what Mr. Trump is doing–by-passing the media and going directly to the people–with his video message on YouTube and meeting notes on the website, etc.

The Poor Souls and Purgatory Resources – MaryRefugeOfHolyLove

/ a soul

COMMENT (by a soul):
I had wanted to do this blog post at the beginning of November, but with the drama of the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election and urgency of the heavenly messages around that time, this task was neglected by me…

But, no more. The poor souls need our help and so, I am posting some resources for followers of the blog, MaryRefugeOfHolyLove, to learn more about Purgatory and to help the poor souls make it finally home.

Firstly, only in November, if you pray the Flame of Love Hail Mary, 10 poor souls are released to Heaven. Imagine if you did an entire Rosary! Here is the special prayer and a link to find out more information on this blog:

“Hail Mary, full of Grace, the Lord is with Thee, blessed are Thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of Thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, spread the effect of grace of Thy Flame of Love over all of humanity, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.”

More Information: Flame of Love Hail Mary
https://maryrefugeofholylove.com/the-seal-of-the-living-god/the-hail-mary-prayer-the-flame-of-love/

Next, according to tradition, St. Gertrude the Great was told by Our Lord that the following prayer, when piously recited, would release 1,000 souls from their suffering in Purgatory:

“Eternal Father,
I offer You the most precious blood
of thy Divine Son, Jesus,
in union with the Masses said
throughout the world today,
for all the Holy Souls in Purgatory,
for sinners everywhere,
for sinners in the universal Church,
for those in my own home,
and in my family. Amen.”

Next, I have been a member of the lay association, Friends of the Suffering Souls (FOSS), for 14 years. The only obligation of members is to arrange one Holy Mass each year for their perpetual 100 daily Masses for the poor souls. Periodically, they email newsletters about Purgatory and miracle stories of members in the association. I suggest everyone join and you can also join other people (living and deceased) so they can receive spiritual benefit of the perpetual Masses, too.

Next, if you have any deceased souls who need the benefit of Masses, you can enroll them for free into the Purgatory Project, which is an online Registry of the Dead. Sometimes, I will enroll deceased souls I read about in the daily news, so they can be taken care of. Here is the website:

http://www.holysouls.com/enter.htm

Next, although there are many fine organizations, whenever I need to arrange Masses, especial 30 Gregorian Latin Masses, for deceased souls, I use this Franciscan missionary organization, Seraphic Mass Association. They also do individual Masses and Novena of Masses.

Gail Buckley, President
Catholic Leadership Conference
9409 Pendennis Lane
Charlotte, NC 28210

Dear Friends:

Unfortunately, my schedule precludes me from meeting and talking with you at the Catholic Leadership Conference today in Denver.

First, I would like to send my warm greetings to the Denver Archbishop Samuel Aquila. In discussions with my Catholic Advisory Group, it is clear Archbishop Aqulia’s leadership in the Denver Archdiocese has been exemplary, as was the leadership of his predecessor, Archbishop Charles Chaput.

Second, should I be elected President, I look forward to working with these two respected leaders of the Catholic Church in America, their brother bishops, and Congress, on issues of critical importance to the Catholic Church and Catholics.

Catholics in the United States of America are a rich part of our nation’s history. The United States was, and is, strengthened through Catholic men, women, priests and religious Sisters, ministering to people, marching in the Civil Rights movement, educating millions of children in Catholic schools, creating respected health care institutions, and in their founding and helping the ongoing growth of the pro-life cause.

I have a message for Catholics: I will be there for you. I will stand with you. I will fight for you.

As First Lady, US Senator, Secretary of State, and two-time presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton has been hostile to the core issues and policies of greatest concern to Catholics: life, religious liberty, Supreme Court nominations, affordable and quality healthcare, educational choice and home schooling.

For instance, Hillary Clinton supports forcing The Little Sisters of the Poor who have taken care of the elderly poor since 1839, pay for contraceptives in their health care plan (even though they have never wanted them, never used them and never will), and having the government fine them heavily if they continue to refuse to abide by this onerous mandate.

That is a hostility to religious liberty you will never see in a Trump Administration.

Hillary Clinton’s hostility to the issues of greatest importance to Catholics is made worse by her running mate Senator Tim Kaine.

Once pro-life and against partial birth abortion, Kaine now has a 100% voting record from the National Abortion Rights Action League. Kaine once was for traditional marriage, even saying “it is a uniquely valuable institution that must be preserved”, but as of 2013, Kaine no longer supported traditional marriage. And on religious liberty? Shockingly, even Kaine supports forcing the Little Sisters of the Poor to pay for contraceptives in their health care plan, and to have the government fine them heavily if they refuse.

On issues and policies of greatest concern to Catholics, the differences between myself and Hillary Clinton are stark. I will stand with Catholics and fight for you. Hillary Clinton has been openly hostile to these core Catholic issues for a long time, and is only going to be worse with Tim Kaine now following her lead.

On life, I am, and will remain, pro-life. I will defend your religious liberties and the right to fully and freely practice your religion, as individuals, business owners and academic institutions. I will make absolutely certain religious orders like The Little Sisters of Poor are not bullied by the federal government because of their religious beliefs. I will protect and work to expand educational choice, the rights of homeschooling families, and end Common Core. I will repeal and replace Obamacare so you can have better and more affordable health care. I will keep our country and communities safe while respecting the dignity of each human being. I will help Catholic families and workers, and all families and workers, by bringing jobs back to our country where they belong. And I will appoint Justices to the Supreme Court who will strictly interpret the Constitution and not legislate from the bench, like Justice Clarence Thomas and the late and beloved great Catholic thinker and jurist, Justice Antonin Scalia.

We are at a crossroads in our country. Much like 1980. But the stakes are higher now – the highest they have ever been. We have two candidates representing entirely different agendas for our country that will take it in two completely different directions for generations to come. And our direction offers a much brighter future for our beloved country.

Thank you for giving me the time to share my thoughts with you on some of the critical issues facing us today.

Please keep me and my family in your prayers.

God bless you and may God bless the United States of America.

Sincerely Yours,

Donald J. Trump

In Honor of the Holy Archangels – Saint Michael – Saint Gabriel – Saint Raphael

/ a soul

st-michael-the-archangel-statue

This statue of St. Michael is at my desk in my work cubicle. It is very beautiful and can be purchased through SpiritDaily.com.

***

Today, September 29th, is the feast day for the only three Archangels mentioned in Holy Scripture. They are:

St. Michael (which means, “Who is like God?”) — Leader of the Heavenly Host of angels — he was the angel who fought and cast down satan from Heaven.

St. Gabriel (which means, “God is my strong man”) — he is seen as a great messenger of God in several Biblical stories — he is also the guardian angel of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

St. Raphael (which means, “God is Healer”) — he is the patron saint of healing, of travelers, and of happy encounters — he is only mentioned by name in the Old Testament.

And so, in honor of these great archangels, I am posting three Holy Love messages that involve each of these angels. Also, remember that if you invoke a saint on their feast day, they have special graces given to them by God. So, today, is the day to ask for deliverance and healing prayers to be answered!

Finally, I have a special fondness for St. Raphael. So, I am also including a “miracle story” about him in this post. I hope everyone enjoys the story. God bless!

Feast of St. Michael, Gabriel, Raphael;
Dedication of St. Michael Statue Prayer Service

St. Michael is here. He says,

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“Often in the world, my brothers and sisters, you see me portrayed with a sword, defeating Satan and driving him out of Heaven. But I tell you, more powerful than my sword is the heel of our Most Blessed Mother, the Virgin Mary. This heel is comprised of those consecrated to Holy and Divine Love. And it is this heel that will defeat Satan.”

He leaves.

From St. Raphael

This morning when I was praying to the angel Raphael, he came and stood next to me. He had large wings, dark hair and features and was dressed in green. I asked him if he believed Jesus Christ was born in the flesh. He bowed so low his wings covered his head. He said,

“I believe Jesus Christ was born of the flesh.”

Then he straightened up and looked right at me. He said,

“And so do you.”

He continued,

“You need to go deeper into the Mother’s Heart. Do not give in to discouragement. Remember, God does not ask of you what you cannot give.”

I asked him how I could do this. He said,

“Continually seek the Refuge of Her Heart and, in so doing, do not dwell on anything discouraging.”

Then he disappeared.

July 19, 2001

“I am your Jesus, born Incarnate.”

“This Mission, you know, is like Gabriel’s horn summoning the harvesting angels to earth. For when I return, it will be on the Wings of Love. And when I come to reign in Triumph, I will be seated on a Throne of Love. Perfect love casts out all evil, for Love is the Light, evil the darkness. This is why the more the soul surrenders to Love, the more perfect he is in My Eyes.”

“When I say to you that you must be the voice crying out in the desert, it is because this Message, the United Hearts Revelation, reveals and casts out evil and brings to perfection the Light. Perhaps you believe this Message to be only for these times. You are mistaken. It is eternal. Yes, it is both here on earth and in Heaven above. Are you surprised at this?”

Maureen: “I guess I don’t understand it.”

Jesus:

“You do not need to. Just believe it. I will bless you.”

WHEN A MARYLAND PRIEST CLAIMED AN ANGEL VISITED HIS CHURCH IN FULL VIEW OF CONGREGANTS

Story taken from: http://www.spiritdaily.com/Marylandangelarchived.htm

A devout priest in Maryland reported that on the feast day of Guadalupe an angel appeared during Mass in front of him and about 200 congregants.

The priest, Father Richard Scott, 41, of St. John the Evangelist Church in Clinton, Maryland, in the archdiocese of Washington, tells Spirit Daily that on December 12 he had started the day asking Our Lady of Guadalupe for confirmation pertaining to a special request he had made.

Originally from Peru, Father Scott, who says he has a special devotion to the angels (“in the Catholic sense, nothing at all New Age”) and recites the litany of angels every day, and conducts healing Masses at a church dedicated to the Archangel Raphael, recounts that at about 6:45 a.m. he was praying to the Virgin.

“Blessed Mother, I know you are Our Lady of Guadalupe,” he had said. “You know that I love you very much. You are also Queen of Angels. I know I am not worthy, but because of the merits of your Son Jesus and His Divine Mercy, I humbly beseech you to send me St. Raphael to give me a sign that what I have heard in my heart is from your Son.”

That night Father Scott celebrated a Mass in honor of the Guadalupe Virgin at 7:30 p.m. He says that he had gone through the day without much further thought as to his request. “I forgot about it,” he says, “but God didn’t.

“I was saying the prayer of the faithful and I had closed my eyes and I opened them and looked up to see the people that I was praying for and I was indirectly praying for my special intentions and also praying for a man with cancer — and for our bishops that they always be filled with the Holy Spirit and faithful to the Holy Father — and just as I was saying that all together, I looked up and in the back of the church, I saw this Hispanic woman who works in the parish preparing the little kids at the time of the offertory, bringing the gifts — they were going to present roses and carnations to the Blessed Mother — and right next to her I see this young man in his twenties with light brown hair with a big picture, a big painting in a frame, with a radiant face and around his body like an aura. He looked different — but completely human, nicely dressed, with corduroy pants, a shirt, a sweater, and like a suede jacket.

“He was radiant — the most penetrating loving eyes. They exuded love, and he had a huge smile, as if he was my best of friends, surprising me. He walked like he was on a mission to fulfill what God wanted him to do. He walked up the aisle reverently but quickly.

“He was in control. Nothing would stop him. He just came down, but he didn’t do it in a way that was pompous. He didn’t float. He walked like a normal person, but quickly with this big painting on his right side and it was like there was a light, a spotlight on him, like an aura around his body, even though his body was normal, and throughout the whole thing his eyes were in contact with me. He gave reverence to the Eucharist and to me as a priest.

“He genuflected near the tabernacle and presented this painting. He laid it against a lectern on the left-hand side. He was not far away from me. He went up two steps and laid it against the lectern and he said to me, ‘You have to bless it.’ I did say as he was approaching, is there anything I can do to help you. I was shocked. Even as he said, ‘You must bless this,’ his facial expressions never changed.

“There was complete love and tenderness but he was there on a mission. I couldn’t walk up to him. I couldn’t move. Something kept me from moving. I couldn’t speak. All I could do was observe and receive. Afterwards he turned around, once again genuflected to the Blessed Sacrament, and then he went again somewhat fast down the aisle, turned around, once again looked at me, raised up his arms to heaven, and said with a smile, as if he was exuberantly happy, ‘Amen, alleluia!'”

It is an angel story as there have been many angel stories but with this twist: Father Scott actually saw the mysterious stranger disappear. Most who have angel encounters describe a stranger who then was nowhere to be seen, but the Maryland priest actually saw him vanish.

“After saying, ‘Amen, alleluia,’ he put his arms down and I don’t know how the wooden doors opened, but as he was going down the steps, before he got outside — there is another set of glass doors — I saw him disappear. He went down five or six steps and disappeared. I saw him disappear. He disappeared just before he got to the glass doors. I did not see the glass doors open, and from the altar I can tell when people leave Mass early.”

Of course, we leave this all for your discernment. So far we have no reason to doubt it and if true we find it tremendous — a Christmas gift.

It confirmed something major for the priest, who says that painting was a replica of the famous Michelangelo masterpiece, “The Creation,” in which God is touching the finger of Adam. He said there was a man in a car who had been out front through Mass waiting to drive a relative, and the man later testified that he saw no one enter or leave. Those attending Mass were equally shocked at the mysterious visitors actions and way of walking.

Father Scott believes the mysterious stranger was the Archangel Raphael. He says the painting was expensively framed in wood with cardboard protectors on the corners. The priest left the painting in the church for four days, waiting to see if anyone would claim it, which no one did.
