The Announcement of the Birth of Jesus

Dear Friends,

In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a town of Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the house of David, and the virgin’s name was Mary. And coming to her, the angel said, “Hail, full of grace! The Lord is with you.” But she was greatly troubled at what was said and pondered what sort of greeting this might be. Then the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. Behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall name him Jesus. He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father, and he will rule over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.” But Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I have no relations with a man?” And the angel said to her in reply, “The holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God. And behold, Elizabeth, your relative, has also conceived a son in her old age, and this is the sixth month for her who was called barren; for nothing will be impossible for God.” Mary said, “Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word.” Then the angel departed from her. (Passage from the Gospel of St. Luke 1:26-38)

Many people are sending me the names of their loved ones to be placed in the Book of Remembrance. You can inscribe them in the book for $15.00 each and I celebrate Holy Masses for them twice a week for a full year. I have received many e-mails and phone calls telling me about the great change of those they have inscribed in the Book of Remembrance. Send the names of your relatives and friends who are sick or do not pray or go to church. They will be touched or healed by all these Masses.

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 living all over the world. I am the Mother of Jesus, your Lord and Savior, who came into the world to save you all. He had been promised by the Father soon after the sin of Adam and Eve but it took thousands of years before the time came for him to be born. It was the angel Gabriel who came to visit Me one day and announced that I would be the Mother of Jesus, the Son of God. The Holy Spirit came upon Me and the power of the Father overshadowed Me and so I conceived a child who would be holy and he would sit on the throne of King David forever.

As I was chosen as the Mother of Jesus, the Son of God, I sang My canticle at My visit to My cousin Elizabeth. It was when I stood at the foot of the cross of My Son, that He made Me the Mother of you all. I am happy to be your Mother and to do all I can to help you reach heaven one day. I pray for you continuously asking My Son, Jesus, to give you all the graces and strength you need to follow Him until death. I love you, My children.”

Denunciation of the Scribes and Pharisees

Denunciation of the Scribes and Pharisees

Dear Friends,

Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples, saying, “The scribes and the Pharisees have taken their seat on the chair of Moses. Therefore, do and observe all things whatsoever they tell you, but do not follow their example. For they preach but they do not practice. They tie up heavy burdens (hard to carry) and lay them on people’s shoulders, but they will not lift a finger to move them. All their works are performed to be seen. They widen their phylacteries and lengthen their tassels. They love places of honor at banquets, seats of honor in synagogues, greetings in marketplaces, and the salutation ‘Rabbi.’ As for you, do not be called ‘Rabbi.’ You have but one teacher, and you are all brothers. Call no one on earth your father; you have but one Father in heaven. Do not be called ‘Master'; you have but one master, the Messiah. The greatest among you must be your servant. Whoever exalts himself will be humbled; but whoever humbles himself will be exalted. (Passage from the Gospel of St. Matthew 23:1-12)

The retreat finished yesterday at noon and all were happy with the result. There was a good group in attendance for the three days. Some came as far away as New York and Connecticut; others came from New Brunswick and Nova Scotia and there were some too from Prince Edward Island. I was very pleased with the people who participated; they prayed with great faith and were good listeners.

I will go near Bouctouche, NB, at the Maury Farm on August 27 for a Healing Mass at 7:00 p.m. and I will have a Healing Mass at the Little Shrine of Our Lady of Prince Edward Island on the First Friday of the month of September, which is September 2, and the Healing Mass will start at 7:30 p.m. with the Rosary at 7:00 p.m.

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

“I bless you, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters living all over the world. I am calling you every day to follow Me. Come and learn from Me and live your life by following My example. Do not be like the scribes and the Pharisees who were full of pride and considered themselves above everybody else and even above God. They would change the laws to fit themselves. They refused to accept Me although, through My acts and miracles, I was showing them that I had the power of God. I healed many people and these hypocrites said that I did it with the power of the devil. They forever objected to My teachings saying that what I taught them was false because these teachings went against their false teachings. They were always plotting to have Me killed. I tell you, never accept anything from such people. They were My enemies. At the end they had Me arrested and falsely condemned and nailed to a cross to die. The one they accused, tortured and killed was no one but the Son of God, the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity. However, I accepted what they did and I offered My Passion and death for the salvation of all the people of the world. Indeed I love you all.”

The Betrayal of Jesus

The Betrayal of Jesus

Dear Friends,

Then one of the Twelve, who was called Judas Iscar iot, went to the chief priests and said, “What are you willing to give me if I hand him over to you?” They paid him thirty pieces of silver, and from that time on he looked for an opportunity to hand him over. On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples approached Jesus and said, “Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?” He said, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, ‘The teacher says, “My appointed time draws near; in your house I shall celebrate the Passover with my disciples.”‘” The disciples then did as Jesus had ordered, and prepared the Passover. When it was evening, he reclined at table with the Twelve. And while they were eating, he said, “Amen, I say to you, one of you will betray me.” Deeply distressed at this, they began to say to him one after another, “Surely it is not I, Lord?” He said in reply, “He who has dipped his hand into the dish with me is the one who will betray me. The Son of Man indeed goes, as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed. It would be better for that man if he had never been born.” Then Judas, his betrayer, said in reply, “Surely it is not I, Rabbi?” He answered, “You have said so.” (Passage from the Gospel of Matthew 26:14-25)

Today I will begin the retreat and it will last until Thursday at noon. There will be no message until Friday morning.

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

“As your Lord and Savior, I bless you, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters living in every part of the world. I am the Son of God who came down upon the earth to teach you all the truth and at the end to suffer and die for you so you could be saved. Is it imaginable that a man, who had been with Me as My disciple, should betray Me to the high priest and have Me arrested and tortured and killed. My disciple was Judas Iscariot. He arranged everything to have Me arrested. He should have known that as God I knew everything that he was doing. This is why at the Last Supper, before I consecrated the bread and wine into My very Body and Blood, I announced that there was one present who would betray Me. None of the other Apostles knew about this but of course Judas knew because he had already started planning all this. Judas is an example of a person who is possessed by the devil who leads him to betray his Savior and Lord. In fact he had been a betrayer from the beginning as he used to steal money from the moneybag. There aremany “Judases” in the world today; they are ready to betray Me for anything. Some can even be bishops and priests. There are many too who are lay people. I call you to come back to Me now so you can be saved.”
