...that He may lead you towards the resurrection
through your personal conversion.
March 4, 2026
Dear Family of Mary,
The February 25, 2026 Message from Our Lady, Queen of Peace!
"Dear children, In this time of grace, anew, I am calling you to offer your lives to God that He may lead you towards the resurrection through your personal conversion. Little children, God is near to you and heeds your prayers, but you are lulled to sleep, and that is why He sent me to you to awaken you, and that you may shine holiness like a spring flower. Thank you for having responded to my call. " (With ecclesiastical approval)
Our Lady calls us to offer our lives to God so that He may lead us towards the resurrection through our personal conversion. She wants us to truly give ourselves to God this Lent because we need conversion, and it will only happen to us if we stay close to Jesus, who will help us to repent and change. We can't convert on our own. It is too hard. We need Jesus to walk us through it, guiding us, teaching us, and encouraging us. We need Jesus!
Here is a litany based on a litany written by St. John Henry Newman! It will help us to offer our lives to Jesus this Lent!! Jesus can walk us through this Lenten time towards the Resurrection, powered by our conversion and repentance!!
