Our Lady of Lourdes
Dear Family of Mary,
Here again is our message for this month!
The January 25, 2026, Message from Our Lady, Queen of Peace!
“Dear children, Today, I am calling you to be prayer and a blessing for all those who
have not come to know God’s love. Little children, be different from
others and be positive people of prayer and love towards God, that with
your lives, you may be a sign of God’s love to others. I bless you with
my motherly blessing and intercede for each of you before my Son Jesus.
Thank you for having responded to my call. (With ecclesiastical
approval)
Our final Be-attitude from this message is "...that with your lives, you may be a sign of God’s love to others."
As we grow in all the Be-attitudes, we will grow in
love for others. The good we will do, the good we will say, the good we
will pray for, it all will help us to be a sign of God's love to others.
When we will be remembered, it will be the good we have done that will
stand out. And it will be a sign of God's love to everyone!
Today is the Optional Memorial of Our Lady of
Lourdes! This wonderful apparition took place in 1858, when Our Lady
appeared to Bernadette Soubirous, a poor girl who had very little
schooling. She was the only visionary. And she was interrogated and
disbelieved. But she stuck to her guns even though the rest of her life
was not easy. But many, many people did believe her, and came to the
grotto to encounter Our Lady. And there have been many, many healings
from "The Lady" who appeared to Bernadette.
Here is a quote from Bernadette that actually demonstrates this Be-attitude we received from Our Lady through Marija, "...that with your lives, you may be a sign of God’s love to others."
Bernadette said, "I
shall spend every moment loving. One who loves does not notice her
trials, or perhaps more accurately, she is able to love them. I shall do
everything for Heaven, my true home. There I shall find my Mother in
all the splendor of her glory. I shall delight with her in the joy of
Jesus himself in perfect safety."
Bernadette's resolve to spend every moment loving
can become our resolve as well. We want to spend every moment loving so
that we can be a sign of God's love to others!! This is true
fruitfulness!! It is the only witness that matters!
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
