Dear Medjugorje USA

Dear Michael. I wrote to you about a week ago, thanking you for for placing my prayer request on your prayer list. I would like to share with you that one of my prayers have already been answered. Out of nowhere I received a phone call offering me a job. It was my old job. After being out of work just under a year, So I am starting back work Monday. I do believe and pray a lot.  I read your testimonial and it made me cry. You have been blessed in a special way.  Please could you remember me in your prayers. Again. Thank you for this wonderful web page. Irene

Thank you Michael for your wonderful and worthwhile work and your valuable time.

You do such a wonderful job on the site.  I especially love the way you have the prayer room set up.  It almost makes you feel as though you just literally entered a quiet, solemn, peaceful church. God Bless, Connie

Hi Michael, I was so thrilled to receive your e-mail and appreciate very much your reply as I know that you are a busy man. I think the timing of your book was within Divine providence and so helpful in helping us make sense of what was going on within the parish and the documentation was first class and provided such clear evidence.
So God bless you for persevering and I loved the book so much. Of all the books I could have chosen whilst in Medjugorje I chose the best and the one that put the whole thing within context and explained the  weaknesses of the first investigation. Your book really helped my pilgrimage! And I have given my copy to my brother-in-law!
I agree wholeheartedly with your hypothesis that Medjugorje is a sign of the great struggle within the church between modernists and traditional/orthodox belief. The true renewal of the Church can only happen when true devotion to our Lady is promoted faithfully again. Bob



 

I had the gift of visiting Medjugorje in November, 2005 and was truly blest with having the opportunity to be there. A friend of mine who had been there 3 times before invited me and  it was one of the best pilgrimages I have ever had.  I wanted to express to you Michael how from a friend I met there who told me about your website that I am feeling the same at your website as I did in Medjugorje.  May God and His Blessed Mother continue to share their abundant blessings on you. Sincerely,  Kathleen O'Donnell

Hello again, Michael.  The more I think and read about Medjugorje, the more I want to think and read about it; like an unquenchable thirst…A desire for God I guess is what it is.  It’s probably in the hearts of all mankind and events at Medjugorje encourage that desire, I think, one soulAt a time.   I just don’t understand why this isn’t on the Nightly News or why it’s not being shouted from the rooftops … I’d bet the majority ofPeople in my office hallway  have never heard of the place.  Perhaps that’s my fault?!?  In any event, a few years ago, while searching online about Medjugorje, I found three photographs that took my breath away.  One was takenInside a/the church?, and the other two were taken of the statue of Our Lady at the exact same time??  I don’t know if I shouldn’t have savedThem to the pc but I did.  Wanted to share them with you to see if you’ve seen them before. I realize and understand that the faithful don’t need images to know the truth.  However, if these are gifts from God, perhaps they should be Shared? Dave.


Hi there. I find it so hard to believe that there are those that do not believe in the apparitions of our blessed mother. Quite simply put if you don’t believe in her apparitions, then believe in her message as it is only about prayer, fasting, and asking us to have a closer relationship with her son, our Lord Jesus. Thank you very much for this web page that continues to inform everyone of our beloved mother. May you all be blessed through our Lord Jesus. Aca


If you have a monthly email reminder list add me to your list. What a great web page you have! Thanks, Mike
 


Hey Michael,
Thanks for getting back with me. You know I have known about the Medjugorje Apps. since about the mid 80's. I have followed along with the monthly messages over the past few years off and on. Your site is the best I've seen. I've mentioned these messages and the apps. over the years and you know most people think I'm half nuts and just go on and totally ignore it all. Even my family jokes about it. It's not like I'm standing on a pedestal and preaching at the top of my lungs, just touch on the subject now and then. Since I have found your site I have emailed it to several and not one has mentioned the first word or comment on it. Some of my family however has had a strong feeling or erg to go make a good confession and make sure they are covered on some past things just to make sure they told them properly in the past. Keep up the good work. Thanks again, Randy

I believe I will start praying the prayers for the Divine Mercy...after having read here about the Divine Mercy!

Thank you so much for what is done on the Internet here... and more. Gertude Rivest...BC Canada May Gob bless us all...and all those we should pray for.........

Thank you so much. The power of our prayers have already started to work as what usually happens as soon as I offer my prayers up on this website. John called last night and he has a job! He sounds like he's on the right path from our discussion on other things and some of his solutions that he has thought of. I am so blessed to have found this website so many years ago and so very thankful to you for all the work you do to manage it. Michael, thanks once again for interceding by posting our prayers.

God bless and may Our Lady continue to love and guide us all.
Mary


Dear Michael, I am writing to let you know that I am so amazed on reading your wonderful website about Medjugorie, which I cannot let it go.  I strongly feel that there is a reason why I am always going to your website each day.  I've come from a large family of thirteen children, which I'm the sixth child from the eldest.  My family have a very strong foundation on the Roman Catholic faith, which I would like to keep it that way.  

 

Also, I would like to let you know that, I have met Ivan when he went to Guam back in the 90's, I don't exactly remember what date, but I traveled to Guam with my mom to attend Ivan's visit.  I thought it was wonderful and I came back home so happy.  That's when I began to know about Medjugorie's Apparitions.  I'd always wanted to travel to Medjugorie and bring my husband there, but due to financial it is not possible.  Could you pray for my family so that God may provide us sufficient financial to take us to Medjugorie?  I know that God will answer your prayer. Thanks Michael, and May our Dear Mother, Queen of Peace and Her son Jesus continue to Bless you.  You are doing a wonderful work for the salvation of the world. Olinka from Saipan.


Dear Michael, webmaster of MEDJUGORJE USA,

 In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and the Blessed Virgin Mary, thank you so much for all your prayers on behalf of our daughter Diana. She's got a pre-match for medical residency training in New York. More power to you and GOD bless!! Gratefully yours in the Love of Gospa, Manuel de Jesus & Family


Dear Michael,
 
Thanks so much for adding me to the POW prayer group.  I am honored and privileged to pray for the souls in Purgatory.  My life has been blessed abundantly and this is
the least I can do for those that are so in need of our prayers.  I also appreciate you adding my prayer requests to the list.  My dad, Ben, has terminal bone cancer and is in his  "final chapter" according to his oncologist.  He has shown us all such great faith, hope, strength and determination while fighting this awful disease.  He truly is my hero. Any prayers that will help bring my dad (and mom) peace and comfort during this difficult time are greatly appreciated. Many thanks to you for the beautiful website . . . and for all you do! God Bless, Mary Sue, Wisconsin
 
I'm Dvalyn Arnold from San Diego, California, in the United States and I just got my P.O.W. prayer chaplet in the mail yesterday and I want to be a member! Let's empty Purgatory! (By the way, I'm Baptist, but I believe in Purgatory and I would want people to pray for me, so let us pray for the lost and suffering in Purgatory!)
 
With the Love and Jesus and Mary,
    Dvalyn Arnold

HI,
My name is Dina Reeder and I'm from IL and I'm writing to sign up for membership.  After reading your website about the souls in Purgatory, I feel moved to pray consistently for them, and will extend my prayers after praying my daily rosary.  I just ordered the chaplet, too, and I'm excited to receive that as well.
I would like to take this opportunity to tell you how much I LOVE your website, Medjugorje USA, and I want to especially thank you for posting the visionary's schedule.  My rosary group and I went to see Ivan in January when he came to Illinois, and it was such a special experience.  To be able to pray the rosary, be present during the apparition, celebrate Holy Mass and have Eucharistic Adoration all in the same night was wonderful.  Also to hear Ivan speak about his mission and personally repeating the messages he receives was just a great experience, something I will remember for a long time.  I would like to go to Medjugorje someday, but I feel especially blessed that Blessed Mother was able to come to Illinois.  Thank you again for all that you do to make such a beautiful website.

Sincerely,
Dina Reeder

Hello, I am a frequent visit to this website. Thanks so much for your good work. I am one person who has been converted through the website. I feel as if I have already visited Medjugorje! My question is, how can I view the messages which Mirjana has been receiving every 2nd of each month? I am always only able to view for a current month. Harriet

Thank you so much for all the prayers offered to my husband Paul & he is now free from cancer, God is Great, I can't thank you all enough from the bottom of my heart, I love you all, God Bless Blanquita

A little over three years ago, I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer.  I had become paralyzed from my waist to my feet almost overnight.  The bone in my spinal column had become weak due to the cancer and it was pressing on my spinal cord.  After two surgeries within ten days, while I was in the Intensive Care Unit of the hospital, I saw little sparkling "stars", which I immediately sensed were miracles, excitement and joy. When I was transferred to the physical therapy unit, I had difficulty turning my head because of my surgery.  But I kept feeling compelled to turn and look at an empty chair in my room.  The chair got moved to nearly across from me, where it was easy to see.  As the days went by, I felt a strong presence of the love of God in that chair and it gave me great comfort.  I believe that He sent a Guardian Angel to be with me.  And with continued physical therapy, I am walking again. I am praying, that if it is God's will, that I be cured of the cancer.  Should I come to Medjugorje?  Please pray for me.  Thank you. Blessings, Terri Chittenden

Hello,

My name is Mary LaBar and I'm from Pa. I went to Medjorje with some friends in November of 2005. Upon our arriving at our hotel it was late and I unconsiously smelled roses. The next morning I smelled them again outside the hotel. We were so busy meeting everyone else, eating breakfast and listening to our guide that I didn't really pay attention. We walked into town and eventually ended up behind St. James Church past the conference hall. Suddenly I smelled roses, pretty strong too. I asked one of my friends if she smelled them too, and she said no. Wow!!!! I was so happy I had to hold back the tears! When we went back to the hotel for dinner that night, I paid extra attention as not to miss that beautiful smell-the sure sign that the Blessed Mother was there! In December, a month after being home, I was asked to go to mass at my one friends church as her daughter was singing a solo. I smelled that beautiful scent of roses again, and there weren't any flowers in the church at all! I still smell roses now and again, and it's always in a different place, totally unexpected, but grateful. That hadn't happened until I went to Medjugorje. Thank you Blessed Mother for this wonderful gift! Mary C. LaBar 

 

Many Many thanks for your prayers.... I had written to you not long ago, l am divorced, have two daughters, had lost my job.  You wrote back telling me not to give up, and kept me in your prayers.The LORD heard... I found a job!!!! My heart is over flowing with joy, and gratitude.  GOD bless you.  I wish you days filled with sunshine, and daisies. Much Respect, Nora Seiba

 

Our son was accepted to the American University in Washington DC for the first half of his senior year.  He was Army ROTC and he wanted to intern at the Pentagon.  That was his dream job.  He left home and had to be there August 22, 2001.  He put in his resume and was interviewed but did not get the job.  He was very upset.   He ended  working for  a congressional investigating committee in downtown Washington DC.  On September 11 the plane that hit the Pentagon hit the Army ROTC headquarters and most of the command was killed.   I was home alone on that morning doing farm chores.  My husband and father of my son, was in the hospital with a kidney stone.  I had no idea what had happened until noon when I called the hospital to talk to my husband and tell him the chores were done.  The first thing he said to me was our son's commanding officer had called and told him our son was okay.  I was left in total confusion.  My husband said turn on the TV.  As I watch the World Trade Towers collapse and the Pentagon burn, the Fatima Prayer became reality to me.  For the first time in my 54 years of life, every word of that prayer had meaning.  It was no longer something that the Nuns had us memorize.  It was real!!!!  I promised that I would give thanks to God every day of my life for the blessings he had given me.  He had given me the life of my son a second time.   We have now started a Rosary group that prays the Rosary daily for peace and for our military and other needs. Thank you letting my story be told.  God Bless you.  Marge 

Dearest Michael,
 
I don't know whether you will ever receive and read this letter but I'm hoping you will. I have the most regard for you dear Michael. I do pray the good LORD will limit your sufferings and bring you to good health once again. You are my beacon of hope and truly an inspiration. I want you to know that your strength will not go on noticed. You’re a remarkable man and tears well up in my eyes just thinking of your sufferings. Thank you for being such a bright light showing the way for all those who want to do GODS will. May God bless you and protect you!!!
 
Respectfully
Bruce W. Pollard

I love your new website (I loved the old one too).  But, I just want to tell you that there isn't enough time in my day to see everything on your website, that I want to see.  Thank you for all the hard work and your devotion to this miraculous place and The Blessed Virgin Mary.
I wish I had the money to come there to visit.....I'll just pray here at home :)
God Bless You,
Joann Swanson


Hi Michael,

I just wanted to let you know that I really like your new website and all your new features.  Love your new contest that you are adding “Devotions Logo”.  What a nice asset to the website and way to get some lucky persons a chance to get to go to Medjugorje. I will be looking for that logo.  Thanks again for a wonderful site and keep up the good work for Our Lady.  The articles are great.  Our prayer group keeps you in our prayers always.  Have a good day.  RoseMary - Indiana


I came upon your website recently and now visit it everyday to pray. I would like to thank you for bringing me back to prayer as I have not always been faithful. I look forward to getting up every morning and visiting your website where I pray and read all that you have to offer. God Bless you and everyone who visits here as well. Sincerely, Patti


I visited Medjugorje in June of 91'. It has been a few years and so much has happened in my life. I am now married with 3 children and your site has reminded me of the peace I felt there which I rarely experience now. Life is so busy but when I stop and pray in front of the Most Blessed Sacrament everything seems to be put back into perspective...God's perspective. My trip there was a boot camp training me for prayer and now I realize the hard times we are now in! Prayer is the only way to truly know God, his will and of course oneself. How much Mary our Mother has been good to me! How Merciful God is! Who is like unto God!!!!!!!!! Thanks again for the fond memories and the gentle reminder of my daily duty! To pray, pray, & pray some more! God Bless you and yours, Ted English


Thank you Blessed Mary, God and thank you all on the net (Medjugorje USA) for your prayers. Ed had an Open MRI,CT scan, Sonogram all showing tumor and cyst on left kidney last month. Urologist said kidney must be removed sent him for second MRI (closed) last week. NO TUMOR. Kidney does not have to be removed. God bless you Michael and the work you do. Respectfully, Pat Junger


Dear Michael, I just want to tell you how much I enjoy this site. Thank you. Every month I anxiously wait for Mary's message. God bless you for taking on this beautiful project. As for your illness, I know that Pope John Paul II will walk by your side if you ask him. Use him as your example. He was definitely Christ-like in his suffering. You also have Mary and Jesus on your side. It is people like you that help me to realize that Jesus does exist. I will pray for you. Mary Jo


I have fallen in love with your website. It has spread so much good news. I will pray for you. Daily, my children and I pray on our way to school and you will be added to the list. It has done a lot of good for many. Hopefully, it will for you. May your sufferings be few, Blessing to you, Angela


Michael, Thank you for sending my rosary in such a timely manner, It's lovely and exactly as you represented it. I thought that you might like to know that I have been a non practicing catholic for many years, and it is your website that has inspired me to start saying the rosary again. I will visit your website often. Thank You and God Bless You, Your Friend in Jesus, Sherry Heppner

Hi Michael, I'm drawn to your website like a magnet. It really inspires me, I've looked at it a 100 times and each time I find something new. I've said it once, I'll say it again - This is the most inspirational site on the net!!!!! Ken Durbin, Plano, TX


Dear Michael,

After 6 months, I just finished reading Divine Mercy In My Soul and wanted to thank you for recommending it. It was, as you said, difficult to get through but mind boggling. It gives you so much insight that could never be gained from anywhere else. I really appreciate all the information you provide on your web site and the POW prayer group. I just stumbled upon this site somewhere in the last 6 - 12 months and have been fascinated by all the information and so wanted to thank you for all your efforts. Best wishes, Abby Beaman


I heard about your website when I was in Medjugorje. Our group read most of the website and they told me about the miracles and the monthly message from your website. When my cross appeared in my picture, they asked me to send it to you and they gave me the address. You will never knew how important your website is for so many millions all over the world who want to know more about Our Lady. I already mailed it to so many friends in Sweden, Iraq, Australia, UK and most of my friends in the US. Dr. Naima Panow


Just to let you know how much I am enjoying this website. I happened on to it by chance, and I am so happy to visit it time and time again. It gives me such peace and hope. Thank you and please say a prayer for the healing of my eyes.


I try to visit as many web sites as I can and I enjoyed reading yours. I think you can learn a lot by going into cyberspace and visiting with other people. It gives you a better understanding of what they know, think, and feel. Thanks and best regards, Bill


Dear Sir,

RE: Feature on the Madonna

I am currently writing a feature on the Madonna and the Apparitions that have been attributed to her. In this feature I am writing about Our Lady's pivotal role as a Spiritual Mother and her continuing relevance in the contemporary world.

I would like to refer potential readers to your web-site and if you are unhappy with that, please let me know ASAP.

I also note that you have published material on Our Blessed Lady and would be grateful if you could send any particular books of interest/literature for review to me.

In any event, whether you respond to this e-mail or not, I think your web-site is excellent and very well designed and provides succinct information.

Thanking you for your time.

Michael,

Since visiting your web site, I have returned to the catholic church and gone to confession after 35 years. I also take my 14 year old son to church with me. I have recently become a Eucharist minister for Sacred Heart Church and visit a large nursing home. I rely on your web site for information regarding our lady's message and your inspirationals. I am sending you a forty dollar donation and pray that God shows you the way to keep your web site alive. It gives me strength and encouragement......in Christ's love......... John from L.A.


To whom it may concern; Thank you so much for this site.... it has added to the ever growing need to learn about the Christian/catholic faith as well as increasing it as is been in my case and I may add that also has been a vessel in getting clarity and so ever closer to understanding Christ and loving God's though His mercy using the love of His mother Mary in the manifestations that are taking place in the town of Medjugorje. Hernan R. Ramirez


Michael,

Thanks for your web pages. I was truly touched by reading your story. While reading, I could feel My whole body is filled with Goose-Bumps.

I wish and pray that one day I could visit this Miraculous place with My family.

Please say a prayer for my family. I know our Blessed Mother will answer your prayers.

May God Bless you,

Dear Friends

I would like to express my great joy in my life since i discovered the Holy Divine Mercy. I always look for find my happiness in money and power but when i had them i found out something missing in me. Tried to discover what this could be i tried witchcraft to tell me more about my future but it was in vain.

Until in one of my desperate moments I discover the Holy Divine and I attending to one of his ceremonies where as from that moment the happiness in my heart was unexplainable, and the more i start attending to the ceremonies of the Holy Divine it was incredible, changed completely and feel that Jesus is my life. Great things he gave me and still helping me to find myself. Oh what a grace I don't have voice to explain what happen inside me, I don't know how i start thank Jesus for what happened and still happening in my life.

The more i drink from his holy water coming from his holy heart the more i get stronger, and understand the meaning of life.

Thank Jesus for your invitation

Hello Michael,

I just read the story of your visit to Medjugorje and was truly touched by the events that happened to you while you were there. It brought tears to my eyes. What a joy it must have been to experience such wonderful miracles and to be reassured of God's love and care. I have visited your website almost daily for the past few months, and even though I saw the link to read about your experience, I didn't go to that page until today (I usually go to the picture, prayer, and apparitions pages). I have experienced strange things myself that have showed me God exists, but not as dramatic as the events that happened to you. However, let me tell you the story of how I found your website.

I have been raised Catholic, but for a while I drifted away from God, questioned my Faith, and was even looking for other things to believe in (like Paganism). Then one night I went to dinner with a friend (she is also Croatian). We both knew about the apparitions in Medjugorje and we started talking about the Blessed Mother and her apparitions. My friend then told me about this website she has visited that has the story of Medjugorje, amazing pictures, as well as monthly messages and other apparition stories. She told me to go home and do a search to find the website (she couldn't remember it at the top of her head). I went home that night and did a search, which is when I happened upon your website. I was so touched by it, that if I don't visit the site daily, I feel empty inside.

Since visiting your website, I have started to pray the Rosary and have even gone to church (which I haven't been doing for a long time). I bought books about Our Lady, a new Bible, and prayed more that I have ever before. To be honest, I now have a lot more peace than I have before and the daily tasks that once seemed so stressful are now easy and fast to accomplish. I truly believe that the more you pray, the more God helps you in life. Thank you Michael, for your wonderful exquisite website. It opened a whole new world for me. God Bless,
Martina


I have missed this website due to not having the internet but now I have it back and I am very grateful. I can read the messages that I have longed for almost two years again. I really love your website. Barsta Family.


I really appreciate your posting of this anniversary message. Today I remind you that the first time I entered your site I received the great gift of perfume from Our Lady's presence. You kindly answered me then. This was 2 or 3 years ago. Though I have had that experience before, it was the first time through the e-mail! Awesome!!!!! Thanks and may God Bless you always. Wanda Megwinoff


Dear Michael How long has it been since I first "STUMBLED" across Medjugorje USA? To answer my own question about late 1999 or early 2000.

Medjugorje USA has never failed me in assuring me that my prayers have been heard. I always find peace and love, when I visit your website. Nothing short of that. Our Lady always acknowledges me in one way or another. And there is no mistaking Her love, Her peace and her generosity. If you ask Her for a close relationship She does exactly that. She draws you ( generically speaking) closer into Her.
Diana Morgan.


I learned in 1995 that when God calls us to do something, we need to act. He called me to Medjugorje and I told Him that if He wanted me to go, He would have to provide the money for the trip. He did and I went. My life has been changed forever. I was allowed to experience several miracles but the one of the soul was the one that convinced me of the Gospa's real presence. I wish everyone could go to Medjugorje. I have not been called to go back but I do desire to go, one day. We should judge all trees by their fruit. God's fruit in this Holy place was sweet and lasting. May the Father, Son and Holy Spirit of our Holy Mother bless you and your efforts.


I went on a pilgrimage to Medjugorje in August of 91, to me it was like going to Heaven. I went over with the Marion Messengers with Sr. Margaret Sims from Framingham Massachusetts, I had my picture taken with Vicka , and when we were there we went up in the loft where Our Lady appeared , I felt so special, I had a lot of special blessings when I came home. I will never forget the love we all shared by being there I hope one day I can come back with my Husband, so he can experience the same , I love you all and may Our Lady Bless all and keep you safe. Sincerely Mrs Suzanne St John


Yesterday my husband had to work at the hospital, and I was alone. At 3 pm. when Our Lord died on the cross I sat down to say the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, and Rosary. Because it was Christmas and the Day we celebrate Jesus birthday, I prayed to God that in his Love My Prayers would have more power and get to him with a pure Soul and Heart. Then I ask Our Lady and Sister Faustina to help me pray for the souls in Purgatory. As I was praying God gave me such a wonderful Grace and Blessing, I was on the 3rd decade of the Rosary saying the Divine Mercy and I felt the souls being released. Michael I'm not crazy , I felt it. I can not even begin to tell you what joy was in my heart. To give that to me such a poor piece of dust, a nothing. But for God to Love me that much, I was so over-whelmed so thankful. If nothing ever happens to me again, it wont matter because I have that. Jacqueline Bales


I went on a personal pilgrimage to Medjugorje last year and spent four days in prayer, meditation and soulful communication with Gospa. I saw neither what others would call a "miracle" nor did I receive any locutions or visions. What DID happen is that for the first time in my 60 years upon this tired old planet, my soul felt the perfect peace that only being in Gospa's presence can bring about. Sadly, this world and in particular this United States, has a feast of rhetoric but a famine of faith. Gospa speaks clearly that we are to reconcile with one another and to my mind, this does not mean Catholic to Catholic but human to human regardless of the faith of one another or lack thereof. We are told that we should fast on bread and water one day a week yet many of us find reasons not to. Division is strong amongst so-called Catholics as to the authenticity of the visions. I have been told I was an idiot to waste my time and money, that I should have gone to Paris and had "fun." Yet, I will testify to the world that when I climbed the mountain of the Crucifix and said the Stations of the cross, hearing the rosary spoken in numerous languages, my tears fell freely and I know in my heart that Gospa is EVER PRESENT in this holy little town which I feel is truly the door to heaven. I just wanted to share. God bless!


Thank you for this lovely site. I am so in love with the Rosary but never learnt more than the Hail Mary's, Lords Prayer, and Glory Be. I can remember writing them 100X each trying to memorize each sentence till somehow I finally got it. Your pages with the A-Z of the Rosaries (and like WOW!! the new Luminous Mysteries--which I have been wondering about and looking for too.) makes it all so simple. I have copied the pages to savor later. Painting In God's Love & Prayer Ann Mary


I shall never forget Medjugorje for the rest of my life. I visited Medjugorje few years ago and I have also taken a photo with Vicka and I will never forget her smiling face. I felt the Holy Virgin Mary around us and Im sure it was a miracle when I saw the sun rolling. The people are so friendly there and I cried hard when I came to leave the lovely country. God bless you all. Yours Truly Mrs Frances Gaffiero


Hello

This is a wonderful site and has helped me a lot. I am relatively new to the computer , I wouldn't even go to a computer course but then this turned up a present from my brother.

Things are progressing with me . I am a member of a prayer group go to mass but I realize everything must come from the heart (to have a loving heart) you were correct in saying we pray for people while on earth but after they die as you said we should pray for the holy souls in purgatory. It's my fathers anniversary this week and when God took him I was devastated . I live alone and when God took my mother I have been empty she was my best friend and I realize that now and when she was ill I prayed for her recovery but it wasn't to be. Sometimes I don't pray at all I just feel desolation but when I got into this site and especially the purgatory room I decided i wanted to pray for the Holy Souls and I believe that was a God incidence me reading about purgatory I want to pray I want to pray for my parents I want them to reach heaven one day and as you were saying perhaps the holy father will recognize the people who are praying and the whole of the church will be praying very soon I feel much better after getting into this site it has given me food for thought as I wonder about life and death but now I am going to pray for the souls in purgatory love Mags from Scotland


My Mother went to Medjugorje before she died of cancer, she was able to climb Cross Mountain and she and her best friend took some extraordinary pictures one of which had the blessed Mother standing beside her in a fog, I knew that year my Mother would die and that she had been touched by Mary. I go to bed each night with that thought in my mind and it gives me great comfort. I do believe that we have all been blessed with the company of our Heavenly Mother on this Earth and I look forward to the time when I to am with our Holy Father and Mother in Heaven. I think the work you all do is a necessary thing and I applaud you for doing it. Please continue to spread the Good news of Our Blessed Mother!! Thank you Robin Henderson, Gainesville, Florida.

Dear Michael,

Thank you so much for your generous information! I will look into buying the book. I am greatly interested in all apparitions from the Blessed Mother, especially Medjugorje. I have been visiting your site sense I was I became chronically ill my 8th grade school year. I was misdiagnosed w/ brain tissue causing epilepsy for my entire life, which was previous misdiagnosed as apnea when I was a baby. When I was to have my first neuro-surgery @ 13 years of age I bought this book for no reason @ all called Visions of the Children. A book on Medjugorje which led me to your website ever sense and has given me hope throughout my 2nd neuro-surgery for a brain tumor and a stroke which left my left side paralyzed temporarily, and took away 50% of my sight in my left eye. I can't thank you enough for website and how much joy it gives to me although I'm still battling pain and suffering.

Thanks again!

Dear Michael, I cannot even begin to explain the changes in my life since I started with the Prayer Room. My Faith has grown so much! my Blessed Mother has interceded for me in away I can't even explain. I smell Roses around me almost every day, and cry a lot, but it's good crying, something I can't even explain. People who are around me experience the smell of the Roses and tell me it's changed there life. I know this is not me, and I am starting to be educated by Priests to find out exactly what this is and what it is that God wants from me. I begged the Blessed Mother for help, but never in my wildest dreams did I think any of this could happen to me. I am so grateful that words could NEVER express how Blessed and loved I feel. I've turned my back on God so many times, and been such a jerk that I wonder why He would even bother with a person like me. What a Merciful Lord! I love My Blessed Mother, and my Savior, Jesus with all my heart! Thank You for allowing me to be a part of something so special Michael, and for all you do may God Bless you, and keep you in His Grace!
Sincerely, Susan


Thanks for the most awesome and complete information about Medjugorje and Our Lady's messages. While reading and hearing the Ave Maria, I received a most delicate and precious perfume. I thank Her and Her Son, Jesus for this heavenly gift. Also my friend and my husband became aware of the fragrance as soon as they entered the room. Glory be to God Almighty!
MAY JESUS AND MARY BLESS YOU ABUNDANTLY
