(Marija prayed a Hail Mary) "With all the questions we would need two days to answer them.
"1st Question: What was Our Lady's last message and when did she give it? Marija: "Our Lady gave a message here [in Sacramento]. It was the 25th of March, just before you arrived [for this conference]. It was in the morning. You know every 25th of the month we gather at Medjugorje time to receive the message and then I send it back to Medjugorje. So I got in touch with Medjugorje. There is a special group there that is commissioned to translate the messages into the different languages because there is an official translation that Medjugorje gives. Sometimes it takes them a little while to translate the messages because in every language there is a subtle difference between one word and another and sometimes there are a couple of words to choose from, so it takes them a little time to pray to be sure they choose the right words so that it has the same meaning in every language. "Fr. Slavko (who died and who was my spiritual director for many years and who spread the messages all over the world) began this group of people to translate the messages into several languages. They study the words that Our Lady uses and make them most in agreement with Sacred Scripture. And sometimes they have to choose a word that is not exactly like the Croatian. (Once I [Kathleen] remember being in this group and there were 28 definitions for one word in Croatian! So how do you translate it into other languages??) So that is why they formed this group so that they could together understand the meaning of such words so they would have the same meaning in every language. This would help people to live Our Lady's messages in a better way.
"It really isn't a question of words, it's a matter of being able to take the messages and give life to them in our daily life, and this is what Our Lady wants. Our Lady really speaks to each of us. She is speaking through me [Marija], but she is speaking to each of us. She is asking each of us to take these messages seriously, to begin to live them and to convert our hearts with them and to become better people with them, to choose holiness through them. She wants us to become better, to become saints, to become holy through these messages. Then she is counting on us, so that by living these me

"And now we will read it: "Dear children! In a special way today I desire to call you to conversion. As of today, may new life begin in your heart. Children, I desire to see your 'yes', and may your life be a joyful living of God's will at every moment of your life. In a special way today, I bless you with my motherly blessing of peace, love and unity in my heart and in the heart of my Son Jesus. Thank you for having responded to my call." (March 25, 2011) (Marija Pavlovic Lunetti, March 27, 2011. Question and answer session at the Marion Conference in Sacramento, California. You can view this talk on www.marytv.tv ) We can see how precious Our Lady's messages are. The parish takes great care to make sure that Our Lady's words are translated well, so that all the peoples of the world will receive their true meaning, and be able to put them into life. Mother Mary's words are for us, each of us, so that we can convert and draw close to God. If we cherish her words to us, we will change! In Jesus, Mary, Joseph, and Blessed John Paul II,
