August 22, 2023
Dear Family of Mary!
This is the Memorial of the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary! She is the Queen of Heaven and Earth! We are her children, and so today we are called to celebrate and extol her with all our hearts full of love! She is not only the Queen, she is our Mother, and so our hearts are brimming over with astonishment, joy, and love!!
Here is a message Our Lady gave to us in Medjugorje in which she told us, "I am your mother, the Queen of Peace!" Let's be really proud of our Mother today!! Let's celebrate her royal dignity!! But let's especially receive her as the Queen of Peace, because this is the title she has revealed to us in Medjugorje. This is the work she has come to do in our day. To establish peace in us and in our world!

"Dear children!
Today I am calling you to a complete surrender to God.
Everything you do and everything you possess
give over to God
so that He can take control in your life
as the King of all that you possess.
That way, through me, God can lead you
into the depths of the spiritual life.
Little children, do not be afraid,
because I am with you
even if you think there is no way out
and that satan is in control.
I am bringing peace to you.
I am your mother, the Queen of Peace.
I am blessing you with the blessings of joy
so that for you God may be everything in your life...
Thank you for having responded to my call."
Our Queen is blessing us with blessings of joy, so that we can embrace our God with joy and trust! She is a wonderful mother!!
Here is a prayer written by Pope Pius XII to Our Queen, our Mother. We can pray it with our whole hearts. We want Our Lady to reign in our lives:
Prayer to Mary, Queen of Heaven by Pope Pius XII
From the depths of this vale of tears where sorrowing humanity makes weary progress, through the surges of this sea of ours, endlessly buffeted by the winds of passion, we raise our eyes to you, O most beloved Mother Mary, to be comforted by the contemplation of your glory and to hail you as Queen of heaven and earth, Queen of mankind.
With legitimate filial pride, we wish to exalt your queenship and to recognize it as due to the sovereign excellence of your whole being, O dearest one, truly mother of him who is King by right, by inheritance and by conquest.
Reign, O Mother and Queen, by showing us the path of holiness and by guiding and assisting us that we may never stray from it.
In the heights of heaven you exercise your primacy over the choirs of angels who acclaim you as their sovereign, and over the legions of saints who delight in beholding your dazzling beauty. So, too, reign over the entire human race, above all by opening the path of faith to those who do not yet know your Divine Son.
Reign over the Church, which acknowledges and extols your gentle dominion and has recourse to you as a safe refuge amid the calamities of our day.
Reign especially over that part of the Church which is persecuted and oppressed; give it strength to bear adversity, constancy never to yield under unjust compulsion, light to avoid falling into the snares of the enemy, firmness to resist overt attack, and at every moment unwavering faithfulness to your kingdom.
Reign over men’s minds, that they may seek only what is true; over their wills, that they may follow solely what is good; over their hearts, that they may love nothing but what you yourself love.
Reign over individuals and over families, as well as over societies and nations; over the assemblies of the powerful, the counsels of the wise, as over the simple aspirations of the humble.
Reign in the streets and in the squares, in the cities and the villages, in the valleys and in the mountains, in the air, on land and on the sea; and hear the pious prayers of all those who recognize that yours is a reign of mercy, in which every petition is heard, every sorrow comforted, every misfortune relieved, every infirmity healed, and in which, at a gesture from your gentle hands, from death itself there arises smiling life.
Obtain for us that all who now in every corner of the world acclaim and hail you Queen and Lady may one day in heaven enjoy the fullness of your kingdom in the vision of your Divine Son, who with the Father and the Holy Spirit, live and reign forever and ever. Amen
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
