The Appearance to the Seven disciples

A reading from the Gospel of Saint John 21, 1 – 14:

After this, Jesus revealed himself again to his disciples at the Sea of Tiberias. He revealed himself in this way. Together were Simon Peter, Thomas called Didymus, Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, Zebedee’s sons, and two others of his disciples. Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.” They said to him, “We also will come with you.” So they went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing. When it was already dawn, Jesus was standing on the shore; but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus. Jesus said to them, “Children, have you caught anything to eat?” They answered him, “No.” So he said to them, “Cast the net over the right side of the boat and you will find something.” So they cast it, and were not able to pull it in because of the number of fish. So the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord.” When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he tucked in his garment, for he was lightly clad and jumped into the sea. The other disciples came in the boat, for they were not far from shore, only about one hundred yards, dragging the net with the fish. When they climbed out on shore, they saw a charcoal fire with fish on it and bread. Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish you just caught.” So Simon Peter went over and dragged the net ashore full of one hundred fifty-three large fish. Even though there were so many, the net was not thorn. Jesus said to them, “Come, have breakfast.” And none of the disciples dared asked him, “Who are you?” because they realized it was the Lord. Jesus came over and took the bread and gave it to them, and in like manner the fish. This was now the third time Jesus was revealed to his disciples after being raised from the dead.

It was cloudy for a good part of the day on Wednesday. We only had a few drops of rain. In the evening I went to the Charismatic Prayer Meeting at the church in Palmer Road. We meet every Wednesday evening. Last week I was the one who led the group in prayer. Today my sister Esther and I will go trout fishing and I hope the Lord will be with us so we can catch a good number.

You will find below the message of Our Lord and Redeemer given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words: “It is always a joy, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters who love to be with Me, to go fishing. So one evening Saint Peter and six other Apostles went fishing on the Sea of Galilee. They worked the whole night but they did not catch any fish. In the early morning I was on the sea shore but the Apostles did not recognize Me. I had lit a fire and I was about to cook breakfast for the Apostles. I asked them if they had some fish but they said no. I told them to throw the net on the right side of the boat and behold the net was full of fish. They had caught one hundred and fifty three. The first one who recognized Me was Saint John, My beloved Apostle. Once Saint John announced that I was the Lord, Peter jumped into the sea and the others came to shore in the boat. I told them to bring some fish and Peter did bring some and I cooked them. Then I called the Apostles to come and eat. So they had bread and fish and they enjoyed it.
My brothers and sisters by cooking breakfast for the Apostles, I wanted to show you all that what you are called to do is to serve your brothers and sisters and one way to do this is to prepare a meal for them. Remember I told the Apostles that I had come into the world to serve and not to be served. You are all to imitate Me. I bless you all.”

Appearance to the Disciples

A reading from the Gospel of Saint John 20, 19 – 31:

On the evening of that first day of the week, when the doors were locked, where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, “Peace be with you.” When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.” And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained.”
Thomas, called Didymus, one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. So the other disciples said to him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands and put my finger into the nailmarks and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.” Now a week later his disciples were again inside and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, although the doors were locked, and stood in their midst and said, “Peace be with you.” Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here and see my hands, and bring your hand and put it into my side, and do not be unbelieving, but believe. Thomas answered and said to him, “My Lord and my God!” Jesus said to him, “Have you come to believe because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.”
Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of his disciples that are not written in this book. But these are written that you may come to believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of Gold, and that through this belief you may have life in his name.

We had another sunny day yesterday and it was hot. It was 29 degrees Celsius this afternoon. I went to adoration last evening at our parish church in Palmer Road. I  spent an hour before Jesus in the monstrance praying and contemplating Him. It is a great grace to be able to spend time with the Lord before the Holy Eucharist.

Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words,

“Rejoice My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters who accept and believe that I am risen from the dead. What joy filled the Apostles when I appeared to them in the room where they were staying in Jerusalem. I came into the place although all the doors were locked. I gave them My peace and I also gave them the Holy Spirit so that they could absolve the sins of believers or retain those they refused to absolve.
The Apostle Thomas was not present when I came to visit the Apostles the first time. When they told him that they had seen Me, he refused to believe. He said he would only believe if he put his finger in the wounds in My hands and put his hand in My side where I was pierced. When I came the second time, Thomas was there and after greeting them I called Thomas to come up to Me and put his finger in the wounds of My hands and his hand in my side and he did so. After he did so, he fell on his knees and confessed his faith in these words, “My Lord and My God.” Indeed those who have not seen Me but still believe are truly blessed.
My dear brothers and sisters, look at the faith of the Apostles and I call you all to believe in Me although you have not seen Me. I am truly the Resurrected Jesus, the Messiah of the world, the Son of God and if you truly believe in Me then you will be given eternal life in heaven. Follow Me every day. I love you all.”

The Appearance to Mary of Magdala

A reading from the Gospel of Saint John 20, 11 – 18:

But Mary stayed outside the tomb weeping. And as she wept, she bent over into the tomb and saw two angels in white siting there, one at the head and one at the feet where the body of Jesus had been. And they said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “They have taken my Lord, and I don’t know where they laid him.” When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus there, but did not know it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you looking for?” She thought it was the gardener and said to him, “Sir, if you carried him away, tell me where you laid him, and I will take him.” Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned and said to him in Hebrew, “Rabbouni,” which means Teacher. Jesus said to her, “Stop holding on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am going to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'” Mary of Magdala went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord,” and what he told her.

We had another beautiful day and for this I thank the Lord. Let us pray every day that what is coming as a punishment will not be too bad and we will all be able to get over it. It is true that we will suffer but pray that He will help us to overcome these days of suffering.

Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Redeemer given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words,

“I would like all of you My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters that you would have faith and love of Me as Saint Mary Magdalene. She was in great sorrow because I had died on the cross and to make it worst, My body was no longer in the tomb where they buried Me. As she looked inside the tomb, she saw two angels in white and they asked her why she was weeping. She told them that they had taken My body and she did not know where they had laid it. Then I came behind her and she turned around and saw Me but she did not recognize Me. She thought I was the gardener and that I was the one who had taken the body away. I asked her this question, “Why are you weeping? Whom are you looking for?” So she thought that I (the gardener) had taken My body away so she asked Me where I had laid the body and she would take it. When I called her by her name, then she recognized Me and called Me teacher. I told her to go and tell the Apostles that I was going to My Father and their Father and My God and their God. So she went and told them everything that had happened.
My dear friends, what joy must have filled Saint Mary Magdalene’s heart when she perceived that I was alive. I had come back from the dead and now I would go and visit the Apostles soon. Know My brothers and sisters that I am always with you if you follow Me. I am your friend who loves you and helps you every day.”
