--------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Is Medjugorje Real? Facts and First-Hand Accounts by Mark Miravalle Introduction The reported apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Bosnia-Herzegovina (former Yugoslavia) have attracted the attention of the world and approximately 30 million pilgrims. Since June 24, 1981, six children began to report daily visits from the "Queen of Peace" and several of the "visionaries" continue to report receiving a daily apparition from the Mother of Jesus over 25 years later. Is Medjugorje real? Are these authentic apparitions of the Virgin Mary? What is the official position of the Catholic Church about their authenticity? Could these simply be the fraudulent deception of hysteric children (now adults) for reasons of attention and personal gain? http://www.motherofallpeoples.com/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=1389 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - A Homily on Suffering from Medjugorje by Fr. Timothy Deeter The following homily was delivered Sunday, June 15, at St. James Church in Medjugorje by Fr. Timothy Deeter. The apparitions began 27 years ago, on June 24, 1981. Last night, I finished another book for my spiritual reading. I’m constantly amazed at how God directs me to read spiritual works that have important lessons for my own life at the time I’m reading them. The book I just finished is entitled Testimony of Hope and it’s by Archbishop—later Cardinal—Francis Xavier Nguyen Van Thuan. In 1975, only a few months after his appointment as archbishop of Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), he was imprisoned by the Vietnamese government for 13 years. Then he was placed under house arrest for three more years, before finally being expelled from Vietnam. Archbishop Van Thuan went to Rome to work in the Vatican, and in the Jubilee Year 2000, Pope John Paul II asked him to preach the annual Lenten retreat for himself and the heads of various Vatican departments. The retreat was so successful that the Pope asked the Archbishop to publish the text of his reflections. http://www.motherofallpeoples.com/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=1388 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - "The Mother was made Co-redemptrix by the Will of the Father" by the Lady of All Nations In the November 15, 1951, message from the Lady of All Nations (Church approval May 31, 2002, see "Church Approves Apparitions of the Lady of All Nations," Marian Private Revelation Category), the Lady tells the world to "pray to the Lord Jesus Christ … that the Spirit of Truth may dwell in the hearts of all nations." After stating that the dogma of the Co-redemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate will be "the last dogma in Marian history" she instructs that the picture and prayer be spread to prepare the way for the dogma. Our Lady also mentions upcoming disasters, economic difficulties and wars, and gives specific messages to the countries of England, America, Germany, Holland, France and Italy. I see the Lady before me. She says,
The Lady of All Nations is standing here before the Cross of her Son. Her feet are placed in the middle of the world, the flock of Jesus Christ all around. I come in this time as the Coredemptrix, Mediatrix. I was already Coredemptrix at the Annunciation." http://www.motherofallpeoples.com/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=1387 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - "Mary has been Given the Greatest Power during this Time" by "Anne," a Lay Apostle The following presents the messages from Jesus to Anne regarding the value of suffering in His instructions to His Lay Apostles (Volume X: Jesus Speaks to His Apostles). The messages are both sublime and powerful, and we share them with you. Anne, a visionary from Ireland, has received permission from her local ordinary, Bishop Leo O’Reilly, for the distribution of messages which she receives from Jesus, God the Father, Our Blessed Mother, the angels and saints (see article, "Discernment of Lay Apostolate of Jesus Christ the Returning King," Marian Private Revelation section). October 2, 2004 Jesus My little servants must follow their mother. Our beautiful mother, Mary, has been given the greatest power during this time. This is My time but this is also Mary's time. Her power comes to her directly from the Throne of God. Children, when you are concerned about the many misleading powers in your world today, ask this simple question. Does the power for the alleged claim come from God the Father who sent His only Son into the world? If the answer is no, then the power is being obtained from the enemy. Does this sound confusing to you? It should not sound confusing, because it is clear. If you are still confused, it is because you do not want to relinquish some habit that has gotten hold of you. Be vigilant here, brothers and sisters. There are impostors everywhere and the impostors do not seek the good of your soul. The enemy, in the form of these powers, seeks the destruction of anything that is holy in you. The enemy seeks your soul. The Holy Spirit within you will object and warn you, if you have been nourishing the Holy Spirit. Do not become involved with anything that reminds you of fortune telling or healing. These habits are sinful. You will be held accountable. Speak out against them, warning your brothers and sisters. Christians in the world have become easy targets of the enemy's followers because they are lukewarm. Not My little apostles, though. You will know the Truth and speak it loudly. Warn others, please. We are losing souls in this manner. http://www.motherofallpeoples.com/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=1386 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - The Franciscan Mariological School and the Coredemptive Movement by Fr. Peter Damian Fehlner, F.I. Many years ago, during a casual conversation, Fr. Juniper Carol, founder of this Society (the Mariological Society of America), mentioned to me the three crusades, during the half century between 1927 and 1977, of Fr. Charles Balic, the indefatigable promoter of Mary Immaculate and of the subtle Marian Doctor, Bl. John Duns Scotus. These crusades were 1) the anti-debitist, linked to the promotion of the Immaculate Conception in the speculative realm, 2) the coredemptive and 3) the assumptionist (1). http://www.motherofallpeoples.com/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=1385 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - A Synthesis of Mary's Role as Co-redemptrix, Including her Presence at the Foot of the Cross by Kathleen Sappah "She was a creature who penetrated the most intimate depths of Jesus’ holy Soul and who had benefited beforehand from the graces of Redemption. She was a creature who took to the Lord all that a human soul, full of grace, can give in love and virtue" (1). Mary was truly "blessed among all women" (Lk 1:42). A sinless woman perfectly obedient to the Lord, called to cooperate with Christ in the work of redemption, fulfilled the Lord’s will and bore the Word made flesh. She always humbly served her Son, the Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. http://www.motherofallpeoples.com/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=1384 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - The Peace of God Mirrored in the Admirable Heart of Mary by St. John Eudes The peace of God is another divine perfection completely realizing its faithful image in the admirable Heart of the most holy Mother of God. But before studying the reflection, let us gaze at the original and consider this adorable perfection of the peace of God Himself. http://www.motherofallpeoples.com/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=1383 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Mediatrix of Salvation: The Role of Mary in the Covenant by Seth Evangelho Divinization is the end for which all things were created. The Mother of the Redeemer, by a singular grace, effectively participates in the reacquisition of this providential vocation to the world when she is "crucified spiritually with her crucified son" (1). In humble submission to the will of the Creator, Mary fulfills her purpose, thus reflecting to the rest of humanity the image of her Divine Son—in whose imitation divinization rests. http://www.motherofallpeoples.com/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=1382 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Consecration
Consecrate Yourself to Mary
Using the Consecration Prayer
of St. Louis-Marie de Montfort
I, (Name), a faithless sinner, renew and ratify today in your hands the vows of my Baptism; I renounce forever Satan, his pomps and works; and I give myself entirely to Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Wisdom, to carry my cross after Him all the days of my life, and to be more faithful to Him than I have ever been before.
In the presence of all the heavenly court I choose you this day for my Mother and Queen. I deliver and consecrate to you, as your slave, my body and soul, my goods, both interior and exterior, and even the value of all my good actions, past, present and future; leaving to you the entire and full right of disposing of me, and all that belongs to me, without exception, according to your good pleasure, for the greater glory of God, in time and in eternity.
