Missionaries of love and peace!
May 8, 2026
Dear Family of Mary!
The April 25, 2026 Message from Our Lady, Queen of Peace
"Dear children, I am praying for you and encourage you to a new life, a life in joy and prayer. May the Holy Spirit fill you, little children, with joy so that you may be like a spring of pure and drinkable water; that you, little children, may be, in God and with God, missionaries of love and peace. Your life is short here on earth and that is why I am with you to lead you towards Heaven. Thank you for having responded to my call." (With ecclesiastical approval)
In this message Our Lady asks us to be "missionaries of love and peace." Her call is so important, so fundamental!! Our mission is to love our families and our neighbors, really all whom we meet. And in loving to bring peace.
Saint (Mother) Teresa of Calcutta never stopped calling us all to do just this, to love our neighbor as ourselves:
"[The] most important thing—when we die [we will be asked], “When were you loving? You did it to Me.” This is for every Christian, every human being, and we Christians have greater responsibility because we know, we have been taught. Others don’t know as clearly as we know….
"Even if you give a small smile, you did it to Jesus, God himself. And at the hour of death when you and I will die and go home to God, Jesus [will give] the same question…. “I was hungry and you gave me to eat, not only hungry for bread, but hungry for love; being lonely, unwanted, hungry for love; not only naked for a piece of cloth, but naked for loss of dignity, human dignity, that beautiful virtue of purity…. Homeless not only for a homemade of bricks, but for feeling unwanted, unloved, rejected, a throwaway of society.” This is what Jesus will judge us [on] when we come before him. I was hungry, you gave me to eat; I was naked, you clothed me; I was homeless, you took me in. Come, you blessed of my Father and inherit the kingdom he has prepared from all eternity and for all eternity. You [will] be full of joy, full of peace, full of love…. And this is what Jesus came to teach us—how to love."
Saint Teresa of Calcutta

Just like Mother Teresa, Our Lady teaches us now how to be missionaries of love and peace. She knows we cannot do it without the power of the Holy Spirit, and so she prays for us to receive the Holy Spirit! Let's pray for each other to be filled with the Spirit of God, that we can learn to love!
God bless us all and may Jesus and Mary be always with us!!
