 Dear Children of Medjugorje, Praised be Jesus and Mary!  

 

1. On July 2, 2012, Mirjana received her monthly apparition at the Blue Cross, and the Podbrdo was covered with huge crowds! After the apparition, she gave the following message:

"My children! Again, in a motherly way, I implore you to stop for a moment and to reflect on yourselves and on the transience of this your earthly life. Then reflect on eternity and the eternal beatitude. What do you want? Which way do you want to set out on? The Father's love sends me to be a mediatrix for you, to show you with motherly love the way which leads to the purity of soul; a soul unburdened by sin; a soul that will come to know eternity. I am praying that the light of the love of my Son may illuminate you, so that you may triumph over weaknesses and come out of misery. You are my children and I desire for all of you to be on the way of salvation. Therefore, my children, gather around me that I may have you come to know the love of my Son and thus open the door of eternal beatitude. Pray as I do for your shepherds. Again I caution you: do not judge them, because my Son chose them. Thank you."

 

 

2. Modern leprosy, pornography! A priest friend of ours, who comes often to Medjugorje, received a special grace to help souls in confession. He shared this event with us:

 

A couple came to see him because their 7-year old son was not well. His health had always been good and he had done well in school, but everything seemed to be collapsing! The child was continually sick and none of the consulting doctors could find the source of the problem. Also, his grades were falling and it was as if he had lost all motivation and even his capacity for studying. Then the worried parents consulted several psychologists with their child, to no avail.

 

Eventually, they came to our friend and asked him to speak with the child. The priest asked them to leave the boy outside as he wanted to speak with them first. After a few basic questions on their habits and behaviors at home, the priest discovered with amazement that both parents had been indulging in pornography for some time. They considered this activity as a distraction when the child was not with them and they had become addicted.

 

The priest exclaimed, "What!?? Don't you know that in doing this, you are committing a very serious sin? Pornography destroys marriages!" Addressing the man, he said, "You are the head of the family according to God's plan, but by doing this you are losing your fatherly grace and you are destroying what God entrusted to you!" Addressing the woman, he said, "You are damaging yourself and damaging the gaze of your husband upon you. In reality, you are making your husband distant from you, running the risk of losing him! And you wonder why your child is sick and crushed? He is paying a heavy price for your sin. So stop!! Pornography makes families sick!"

 

By the grace of God, the couple decided to put an end to their perverse habit and they got rid of all their porn media. Soon after, without any medical care, the child recovered and regained his motivation at school. He experienced a kind of rebirth and it was high time!

 

The parents have realized how harmful pornography really is, they had no idea! Now they are able to witness to others who are snared by the same addiction.

 

(Along with his many years of ministry, this priest also noticed that in a couple, if the man indulges in pornography, many times his wife starts to suffer from serious troubles in her reproductive system. InRome, this priest has been asked to write a report for exorcists on the effects of pornography.

 

3. Oh Children! In a recent homily in Medjugorje, a priest told this fact: A 4-year old child had a serious lung problem. Because he had already suffered a lot, he was afraid of doctors. The radiologist tried to reassure him by explaining that he would examine him by a painless a scan, in order to see everything inside of him so as to be able to treat him better. The child was surprised, "You will see everything inside of me?" he asked. After the exam, the doctor explained the diagnoses to the parents in complicated terms that were beyond the child. The boy became more and more impatient to know... Not being able to wait any longer, he interrupted the doctor and asked him, "If you saw everything that is inside of me, then did you see the Blessed Mother who is in my heart?"

 

In a world so troubled, it is wonderful to see that Our Lady still has her little comforters! It is our duty to always protect their innocence - their most precious treasure - as a lioness protects her cubs.

 

 

4. Thousands of young people are getting ready to come to Medjugorje for the Youth Festival! How can we help but think that the Queen of Peace is also preparing herself to welcome them with her immense motherly heart, to spoil them the way mothers always do, with the most marvelous gifts?! These young people who - we must acknowledge -have escaped the threat of abortion to come into the world, were born into a culture which entices them with a thousand excitements but never satisfies them. When they are not completely intoxicated by the materialistic paganism which surrounds them in the West, they are searching . . . searching . . . searching for a meaning for their lives and a valuable reason to continue their journey.

 

What a marvelous response the Blessed Mother gave them in her message of July 2nd!!! (See PS1). There is nothing to add to it. The young people have only to follow her instructions! At Medjugorje they will have the opportunity to stop for a moment and to reflect on themselves and on the transience of this earthly life which is theirs. Then they will reflect on eternity and on the eternal beatitude. Our Lady asks them: "What do you want? What way do you want to set out on?"

 

They will answer her in prayer and they will be able to count on her to help them follow the path which leads to happiness. "Many young people are searching for happiness right where it gets lost," Mary says in another message. In Medjugorje, they will see other young people who have been following Jesus for some time, and they will realize that for them, also, such a path is possible. A mother helps her child realize that in the plan of the Creator he is truly a unique person, irreplaceable and infinitely loved. She helps her child achieve his highest potential for happiness.

 

I hope to appeal to those who take to heart the coming of the young people: Let each one offer something to God (in prayer you will find out what to offer) in order to bring at least one young person, if not many, to encounter Jesus so deeply during the Festival that he will have the strength to change his life and to choose the path of holiness. How many saints became saints after a troubled life, because someone sacrificed himself for them? Just to quote one example, Blessed Charles de Foucault was wallowing in impurity before a confession which launched him towards holiness, thanks to the prayer of his cousin.

 

Thank you for each Hail Mary, each fast, each new act of charity, each Mass lived with the heart, each hidden sacrifice, and each suffering offered to Jesus without complaint! In Heaven, sooner or later some day, you will see a great saint coming towards you and tell you that it was thanks to you that he was able to come out of misery, abandon his road to death and choose life with Jesus!

 

Dearest Gospa, we are impatient to see all that you are preparing for these young people! Grant us the grace to help you distribute the gifts!
