Sister Emmanuel's Report from Medjugorje for August 2019

 Medjugorje, August 18, 2019

Dear children of Medjugorje, praised be Jesus and Mary!

    1. On August 2nd, 2019, Mirjana received her monthly apparition at the Blue Cross, surrounded by a large crowd of pilgrims. After the apparition, she conveyed this message:  
"Dear children, great is the love of my Son. If you  were to come to know the greatness of His love, you would never cease to  adore and thank Him. He is always alive with you in the Eucharist,  because the Eucharist is His Heart. The Eucharist is the heart of faith.  He has never left you. Even when you tried to go away from Him, He has  not [left] you. That is why my motherly heart is happy when I watch how  you-filled with love-return to Him, when I see that you are coming to  Him by the way of reconciliation, love, and hope.  My motherly heart  knows that when you set out on the way of faith, you are shoots-buds.  But along with prayer and fasting you will be fruits, my flowers,  apostles of my love; you will be carriers of light and will illuminate  all those around you with love and wisdom. My children, as a mother I am  imploring you: pray, think, and contemplate. Everything beautiful,  painful and joyful that happens to you-all of this makes you grow  spiritually, so that my Son may grow in you.  My children,  surrender yourselves to Him, believe Him, trust in His love, let Him  lead you. Let the Eucharist be the place where you will feed your souls,  and afterwards, will spread love and truth-will bear witness to my Son.  Thank you."
  

As  on all sites linked to Medjugorje, at the request of the authorities,  we won't post the video of Mirjana's apparition as before. Obedience is  always blessed!

2. "Little children, trials will come!" The Queen of  the Prophets has never been clearer than today, and that is no accident  (See PS1). The worst thing for us to do would be to ignore her warning,  because it is serious. For 38 years, she has shown us the way to peace  and even to prosperity (see message of 25 Dec. 1999 for the 3rd  millennium.) But despite her warnings about the risks we take by not  listening to her, her children's response has been too weak. She must  now warn us that difficult times are near. As if the world weren't  already going through hard times! Kyrie eleison! Take note, however, we  are not talking about the end of the world. In fact, Mary tells us about  future generations, she is "preparing us for the New Times", and of  course for the triumph of her Immaculate Heart. Obviously, when a mother  prepares her child for something, she does not prepare him for an event  in the future that he will not experience. On the contrary, she  prepares her child for what he will see in his lifetime. In other words,  you and I will probably see these New Times!
Every triumph is preceded by a conflict or a battle, for one  does not triumph over peace. We are already in the middle of this  battle. That much is obvious. So many wounds, so much suffering! The  closer victory approaches, the more intense the battle becomes, because  the enemy, seeing the end of his power closing in, behaves like an  aggressive animal before collapsing having been wounded to death.
With God it is never too late. We may no longer be able to  prevent trials from happening, but we can soften and shorten them. Far  be it from me to want to explain here the kinds of trials that await us,  let us instead focus on ways to draw upon God's grace and His  extraordinary mercy so that we may survive in the midst of these waves  that overpower us.

Every authentic prophecy contains its share of hope, and  today Mary tells us where to find true refuge, the one that never  deceives: The Heart of her Son Jesus, who will always remain present to  us through the Eucharist. "He is still alive with you in the Eucharist,  for the Eucharist is his Heart. The Eucharist is the heart of faith. He  has never abandoned you, even when you tried to move away from Him..."  She also said, "Those of my children who have faith - true faith - are  happy no matter what, because they begin to experience heavenly  happiness while on earth." Now who are those who have true faith? Those  who cling to Christ with their whole being.
The assurances offered to us by the world and its excessive  materialism can no longer assure us of anything. If I take out life  insurance, it only works when I'm dead! Jesus alone is our true  security, our safe haven, our true Life insurance!
3."Sin will reign", Mary said. "But if you are mine,  you will overcome it because your refuge will be the Heart of my Son  Jesus. That is why the world needs worshipers, to allow the Lord to  reign again in the heart of the world. Mary asked that there be a chapel  of perpetual adoration in each parish. Seeing her Son adored by His  children is her most treasured dream. When we adore Jesus hidden in the  tabernacle, or exposed on the altar, even if distractions may disturb  us, Jesus is there alive, He radiates in the invisible and He acts in  our souls! His whole life is there before us, like an open book with  gushing flames. We are gradually transformed, because we are filled and  enriched with Him. Why do so many Catholics today doubt the presence of  Jesus in the Eucharist? Don't they know that Satan himself is aware of  this presence? Why do Satanists, who always seek to prolong Christ's  passion with their sacrileges, smash tabernacles to steal the hosts?  Don't they have enough bakeries near their homes to find bread?

It is beautiful to see that Jesus extends his divine rays of  love and light not only on those who adore Him, but that this powerful  radiation of love extends even to the surroundings! We move from the  natural to the supernatural, and fruit is borne. I know a priest whose  mission is to create chapels of perpetual adoration in the parishes that  invite him. He told me that in 1984, the city of Trieste had the  highest suicide rate in all of Italy. Not to mention other evils such as  crime, rape, theft, divorces, abortions, occult practices, etc. These  statistics are in the city's records.  That very year, he founded a  chapel of perpetual adoration. Well, in just one year, the suicide rate  fell by one half!
4. Rome has arrived! Thanks to the good work of Bishop  Hoser, the Pope's envoy for the pastoral care of Medjugorje, many  prelates did not shy away from coming to celebrate the Eucharist in  Medjugorje in recent weeks! From Rome came Archbishop Rino Fisichella,  President of the Pontifical Counsel for the New Evangelization and  Cardinal Angelo De Donatis; and then the Cardinal of Sarajevo, Mgr.  Pulic; The Apostolic Nuncio for Bosnia and Herzegovina, Mgr. Luiggi Pezzuto.

Even France is starting to budge! We already had Mgr. Dominique Rey, Bishop of Toulon, then the Archbishop of Avignon, Mgr.  Jean-Pierre Cattenoz.

This marks a new turning point for the Marian Shrine of Medjugorje, which is very positive and promising! 5. When there are too many mosquitoes in a room, a  device is plugged in that emits a scent or sound that scares them away.  Our prayer, on the other hand, is like an incense that rises to God,  like a fragrance that delights His heart. And prayer annoys the demons  so much that they run away from this incense. So let us not forget this  touching confidence disclosed by Our Lady in May 2017: "The prayers you  address to me are the most beautiful roses of love for me. I cannot fail  to be there where I smell the scent of roses!" Do you know that each of our Ave Maria's is a rose offered to the Mother of God?

6. Van and France. Because several  people have expressed a great interest in the young Vietnamese Marcel  Van whom I quoted in July, here is a new text that concerns France.  I  hope it will speak not only to the hearts of my dear people, but also to  those from other countries who will take into their hearts this blessed  country who should behave as the elder daughter of the Churchand who is  still so far from it! Jesus (Nov.  12 1945)! O little apostle of my love, everywhere in France my love is  calling out for help. And what help is it asking for? For the relief of  prayer which, by reviving the flame of love, will make the hearts of the  enemies of my love more pliable. In order to do the right thing,  wherever there are French people, the incense of prayer should rise up  to my love. O France, I love you; and you French people, do you actually  know what the feelings of my heart are towards you? Do you see my tears  mingling with those of a foreigner who is busy writing down the words I  am dictating to him here, for you? O  France, I press you in my arms, I give you a kiss. It is not possible  that you should take advantage of this mark of tenderness to strike me  in the face. Alas! You, the children of the country I particularly love,  how will you behave towards my love? Will you deliberately throw it out  of your home? O priests  of the country that I particularly love, I am a fugitive who is seeking  asylum in your home. What welcome do you want to give to my love? Will I  be chased away or eagerly welcomed? O my children, I do not want to  allow my love to move away from France. O France! Country that I love  more than others, hear the call of my love. People of France, my  children, if you push my love away from you, what other love could you  possibly use to lift up France? If there is no love to lift France, then  France will be covered in thick smoke rising from hell, and in that  case, she will become a country opposed to my love and will eventually  be destroyed. But, my child, humble child of my love, if prayers from  trusting, simple and pure hearts are brought up to me, later you will  see me smiling happily at the land I love.

PS1. Message from July 25, 2019: "Dear children,  my call for you is prayer. May prayer be joy for you and a wreath which  binds you to God. Little children, trials will come, and you will not  be strong, and sin will reign. But if you are mine, you will win,  because your refuge will be the Heart of my Son Jesus. Therefore, little  children, return to prayer until prayer becomes life for you in the day  and the night. Thank you for having responded to my call."   PS2. Ivan the visionary was recently in Medjugorje! On August 12th, Mary entrusted him with this message at the Blue Cross where we were invited: "Dear children, in this time of mercy, in a special  way, I wish to call you to prayer - perseverance in prayer. So many  times, I have said that my Son has allowed me to stay here together with  you because I wish to teach you and to raise you - educate you -,  because I wish to lead you to my Son. Therefore, decide for Him! Put  Jesus in the first place in your families. Pray in front of Him, so that  you can receive graces. The Mother prays for all of you and intercedes  for you to her Son."   PS3. The Youth Festival in Medjugorje was a shower of blessings! It was followed this year on the Internet by more than 2.8 million people. Unheard of! On August 4, for the feast of St Jean Vianney, 714 priests co-celebrated Mass.

PS4.  Hong Kong in trouble! Seeing the very  serious events happening there, we suggest that we start a special  chain of prayer and fasting for Hong Kong, until peace is settle back!  An appeal has been sent to many friends, remembering these words from  the Gospa: "Only by prayer and fasting can the war be stopped."

 NB: This is the correct translation of Mary's message to Ivan, of July 5,  "Dear children, at this  time, I especially desire to call you to decide for God. Put God in your  lives and in your families in the first place. Leave the passing things  of this world, materialism, all that distances you from my Son. Decide  firmly. Live my messages. I desire to continue to lead you-to  lead you to my Son-that in Him you may find true and real peace and  love. Thank you, dear children, for also today having responded to my  call.  Go in peace my dear children."
