Thank you, miker, for reminding us of the thoughtful, clear wisdom of Pope Benedict! O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee!
Our Lady’s Message on this Christmas Day; December 25, 2023 “Dear children! I am carrying my Son Jesus to you to fill your hearts with peace, because He is peace. Little children, seek Jesus in the silence of your heart that He be born anew. The world needs Jesus, therefore seek Him through prayer, because He gives Himself daily to each of you.” Today Our Lady came solemnly dressed with little Jesus in her arms. Jesus extended His hand in a sign of blessing as Our Lady prayed over us in Aramaic.
OUR LADY’S ANNUAL APPARITION TO JAKOV - DECEMBER 25, 2023 At the last daily apparition to Jakov Colo on September 12th, 1998, Our Lady told him that henceforth he would have one apparition a year, every December 25th, on Christmas Day. This is also how it was this year. The apparition began at 2:20 pm and lasted 6 minutes. Our Lady came with little Jesus in her arms. Through Jakov, Our Lady gave the following message: Dear children, today with my Son in my arms, I desire to call all of you to pray to the little Jesus for the healing of your heart. Children, often in your hearts sin rules which destroys your life and you can not feel God's presence. That is why, on this day of grace, when grace is spreading throughout the whole world, surrender your life and your heart to the Lord, so that the Lord may heal them with His grace. Only with pure hearts will you be able to experience the birth of Jesus anew in you, and the light of His birth will illuminate your life. I bless you with my motherly blessing. Thank you for having responded to my call.

Personally, this is one of Mary's most profound and thorough messages from Medjugorje. It ties in so well with today's feast!: February 2, 2020 “Dear children, by the act of the decision and love of God, I am chosen to be the Mother of God and your mother. But also by my will and my immeasurable love for the Heavenly Father and my complete trust in Him, my body was the chalice of the God-man. I was in the service of truth, love and salvation, as I am now among you to call you, my children, apostles of my love, to be carriers of truth; to call you to spread His words, the words of salvation, by your will and love for my Son: that with your actions you may show, to all those who have not come to know my Son, His love. You will find strength in the Eucharist – my Son who feeds you with His Body and strengthens you with His Blood. My children, fold your hands [in prayer] and look at the Cross in silence. In this way, you are drawing faith to be able to transmit it; you are drawing truth to be able to discern; you are drawing love that you may know to love truly. My children, apostles of my love, fold your hands [in prayer], look at the Cross. Only in the Cross is salvation. Thank you.”
From a quick translation I heard that our lady thanked everyone and prayed over them for some time and said that all who had responded to her invitation would not regret it neither would their son and sons sons
Thanks for alerting us. We were able to use both feeds … from St. James and Apparition Hill and even in Croatian were able to follow and participate. It was a beautiful few minutes for my wife abd I to be on our knees in our kitchen praying as Our Lady appeared. Such a gift. Prayers for all of you.
Yes and what a gift to receive that message with my son standing behind me watching and praying along.
