“There’s a difference between a house and a home
And even a bigger difference between a Christian home and a non-Christian home
Your home is a reflection of you
And you are called to be a reflection… of Jesus”
A Friend of Medjugorje, The Resting Place
And even a bigger difference between a Christian home and a non-Christian home
Your home is a reflection of you
And you are called to be a reflection… of Jesus”
A Friend of Medjugorje, The Resting Place
Our Lady said on June 5, 1986:
The picture of Our Lady that hangs in the founder of
Caritas and his wife’s home in Alabama, clearly a sign that Our Lady’s
presence has been and continues to live here. Where there is the
presence of Our Lady, there will be the presence of Jesus. Where Our
Lady’s image has been placed, so too will there be the image of Jesus.
Medjugorje visionary Marija was walking through the living room of the
founder of Caritas and his wife’s home late one evening a few years ago.
The founder of Caritas was up late reading in front of the fireplace.
Marija turned to him and said, “There is so much peace in this home.”
In this Christmas time when we visit the homes of family and friends,
and likewise, when family and friends visit us, do they know upon
entering our homes that they are in the home of a Christian? Moreover,
do they know they are in the home of an apostle of Our Lady? Meditate
and reflect upon what in your home needs to be changed, and what needs
to be “Christianized.” Does our home bring peace to others when they
enter? Christmas is more than decorating for one day of the year. It is
about Who is born that day, and Who lives on the rest of the year.
Jesus lives on, with Mary His Mother. Beginning with Christmas, may
your home reflect that life of Jesus and Mary the rest of the year.
In the Love of the Holy Family,

Here’s what I have in my living room all year around:
Every room has a religious picture or Icon hanging on the walls. Every where we lived we always showed everyone who visited our Christian home.
