The Return of the Twelve and the Miracle
A reading from the Gospel of Saint Luke 9, 10 – 17:
When the Apostles returned they explained to Jesus what they had done. He took them and withdrew in private to a town called Bethsaida. The crowds, meanwhile, learned of this and followed him. He received them and spoke to them about the Kingdom of God, and he healed those who needed to be cured. As the day was drawing to a close, the Twelve approached him and said, “Dismiss the crowd so that they can go to the surrounding villages and farms and find lodging and provisions; for we are in a deserted place here.” He said to them, “Give them some food yourselves.” They replied, “Five loaves and two fish are all we have, unless we ourselves go and buy food for all these people.” Now the men there numbered about five thousand. Then he said to his disciples, “Have them sit down in groups of about fifty.” They did so and made them all sit down. Then taking the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing over them, broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the crowd. They all ate and were satisfied. And when the leftover fragments were picked up, they filled twelve wicker baskets.
I wish to thank all those who send me money today Friday. I still need $600 to pay the remaining amount to the court. I pray that those who can will send the money via Paypal as I wrote in my message. It is very important that I pay this money early next week. I wish to thank all those who sent me money and may the Lord bless you all.
Below you will find the message of Our Blessed Mother given to Father Melvin. She spoke to him these words,
“I bless you My son Melvin and all My sons and daughters who remain always close to My Son Jesus and to Me. As you read in the above message from the Gospel of Saint Luke, My Son Jesus caused a great miracle by multiplying the bread and the fish to feed five thousand men without counting the women and the children. When all were satisfied they collected twelve baskets of fragments. This miracle of My Son made the Jews think about the great miracle God the Father did while the Jewish Nation were in the desert for forty years. All the time they were there, the Father gave them manna and quails to eat. He fed them for forty years. Now My Son Jesus did the same with the people who followed Him. For you who follow My Son Jesus, this miracle of the bread and fish, should make you think of the great miracle that Jesus did for you at the Last Supper. He instituted the Holy Eucharist and in a miraculously way He changed the bread and wine into His Body and Blood and gave them to His Apostles. Today all priests have this power to change the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of My Son Jesus. This is the great gift which He gave you all. You know that He is alive in the Holy Eucharist and when you receive Him, He comes and lives in your heart. This gift should fill your hearts with great love for Him and you should praise and glorify Him as you receive Him at Holy Mass. I bless you all.”
