The beginning of the Year of Faith

 

Dear Family of Mary TV,

 

Last month I wrote to you, asking for your help as Tom Matasso and I set off to Vienna to stream the Evening of Prayer with Ivan and Cardinal Schoenborn! I am home again and want to share what happened! Thanks to your prayers and support Vienna was a great success!

  

On the day of the event, Mary TV streamed live on three different servers located in different parts of the world - one for English and one for Spanish and one for Russian.  Our Web page had 30,000 more hits during this year's Evening of Prayer in Vienna than we did last year. Usually a server carries several hundred web pages, but on September 25th Mary TV was the only web page on each server so access to the live event in Vienna was not impeded.  In the future when we stream Our Lady's apparitions live everyone in the world who wants to join through the internet should be able to do so!

 

At the end of the Evening of Prayer in St. Stephens Cathedral Cardinal Schoenborn told me he is well aware of our work and appreciates very much Mary TV!  Organizers of the event told me they are amazed at the number of people who are able to log on through Mary TV.  To my knowledge everyone in the world who wanted to participate in the Mass with Cardinal Schoenborn and the apparition with Ivan on September 25th through Mary TV's live streaming was able to do so.  

 

This year there were many more people praying with us from Israel, the Palestinian Territory, Iraq, Egypt, Jordan, Qatar, China, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Oman, Taiwan, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Japan, China, India, Malaysia, Lebanon, The Russian Federation and numerous Eastern European countries. What a joy to know that Our Lady could reach all these, her children!

 

This past June, one of the visionaries, just back from meeting the commission in Rome, told me the Vatican Commission is looking at Mary TV's web page.... I hope they are watching our new series "Fruit of Medjugorje" that is airing every Monday and Thursday night at 8:00pm (Eastern Time).  The testimonies are astounding!  Rev. Michael O'Carroll, author of "Theotokas", an encyclopedia on Our Lady, said twenty one years ago during a lecture at Notre Dame: "The good fruit of Medjugorje is unparalleled in the history of the Church!"  Watching these testimonies, we are experiencing that good fruit first hand!

 

Blessed John Paul II said it is the laity giving witness that will spread faith throughout the world setting it on fire!  He understood the importance of Our Lady's apparitions today in Medjugorje.  It's now a matter of public record that he believed, "Medjugorje is the spiritual center of the world."

 

After Vienna Tom Matasso and I went on to Medjugorje to finished soundproofing our ground floor studio...  It's now ready for winter use. With the Commission watching we don't want these testimonies to miss a beat!

 

I can testify that the graces are more powerful today in Medjugorje than ever before!  Our Lady is coming to route the devil.  "This time is my time," she told us fifteen years ago. And her June 2, 2012, message is telling us something incredible: Through Jesus' "salvific love and the Holy Spirit He chose me and I, together with Him, am choosing you to be apostles of His love and will. My children, great is the responsibility upon you... If receiving my Son in the Eucharist is the center of your life then do not be afraid, you can do everything. I am with you." I believe this message is telling us we all are the predestinate prophesied by St. Louis de Montfort, who along with Mary and under her mantle, will crush the head of Satan!  Recently the Pastor in Medjugorje stated in an interview published in a leading Croatian newspaper that it is not unreasonable to assume God is sending Our Lady to Medjugorje to prepare the way for the return of her Son.... 

 

Two days before Vienna Cathy and I, and Milona von Habsburg, who traveled to Vienna as part of Mary TV's team, were interviewed on Radio Maria.   Milona said something astounding and profound.  We know from her testimony at the 2010 National Conference on Medjugorje at the University of Notre Dame that her aunt, Olga, Duquesa de Cadaval, was the personal secretary to Sr. Lucia of Fatima, and that Milona and her family would visit her every year in Coimbra, Portugal.  And her aunt would tell her and her family that Sr. Lucia was praying fervently for the visionaries in Medjugorje, concerned for their wellbeing because she knew Our Lady was appearing to them and they had no protection from the world that was flocking to their doors...  During the radio interview Milona said her aunt brought her one day to meet with Sr. Lucia at her convent....  While praying in Sr. Lucia's chapel Milona, who at the time was Fr. Slavko Barbaric's personal secretary in Medjugojre , remembered that no one was to meet Sr. Lucia without permission from the Vatican, and so she decided not to stay for the visit. She instead went to the chapel to pray. She told her aunt later that as she prayed in the chapel, she received in prayer: "Those who go deep into Fatima in prayer will understand Medjugorje."  Her aunt told her that this was exactly what Sr. Lucia had told her during their visit. She had gotten it in prayer that very same time!

 

This mirrors what I received in prayer at the first Mass I attended last week in Medjugojre:  What comes out of prayer will help Our Lady.  What doesn't come out of prayer will not help Our Lady.  Everything for Our Lady is dependent on prayer!

 

We are deeply grateful for your prayers. I have been saying all along that those who are praying for Mary TV are the most important part of our team.    It would be very easy for us to get in the way (especially me). Mary TV could easily end up not serving Our Lady's plan.   Please don't quit praying!   Our Lady has much more for us all to do!

 

God bless you!  Thank you for you trust and generosity!

PS.  "Dear children: I am calling you and I am coming among you because I need you.  I need apostles with a pure heart.  I am praying, and you should also pray, that the Holy Spirit may enable and lead you, that He may illuminate you and fill you with love and humility.  Pray that He may fill you with grace and mercy.  Only then will you understand me, my children.  Only then will you understand my pain because of those who have not come to know the love of God.  Then you will be able to help me.  You will be my light-bearers..." (October 2, 2012 message)

 

Everything must come out of prayer and so we would like to ask you to pray and ask Our Lady if she is calling you to support Mary TV's mission with a monthly online donation - If the answer is yes, just follow directions in the left hand column at www.marytv.tv (or phone Cathy and she can tell you how.... Tel: 574- 288 - 3069).
