Sunday Mass Cancelled Due to Predicted Icy Conditions

Multiple weather forecasts are calling for 100% chance of freezing rain/snow from 6 AM until noon on Sunday. This will create very treacherous road conditions, with the entrance road to the Mission being particularly dangerous. Mindful of our staff and volunteers, and the distance that many in our congregation travel, we feel it best to cancel our public Mass on Sunday. 
We pray for everyone to be safe. 

 

Any "victory" of the enemy is illusory 

I Am the Victory

My Church Will Be Completely Renewed

Excerpt from Message of Sept. 20, 2024
I Am the Head and the Victory.

Jesus speaks:

ONLY I CAN SAY THIS, CHILDREN.  I, WHO SCRUTINIZE EVERY HEART AND BEFORE WHOM NOTHING REMAINS HIDDEN....

Children, how much more you will see.  Just as I saw My Apostles and disciples be shaken, flee, deny Me.  Seeing “in ruins” what I had – with so much effort and Love – gathered, formed, and loved.

But children, in My gaze from the Cross there was also the Peace that what was taking place was necessary, and that I would see My chosen ones purified from all their pride, their human way of thinking and acting, ready for the kiss of the Divine Fire that would finish transforming them completely.

My little ones who love Me, I say these words to you that you might remember that after the purification of My Church – after My Reconquest – you will see Her renewed, completely pure, full of Light, full of the abundance of My Grace, as She came forth from My Heart as It was pierced.

Yes, children, the rot has reached so high and so deep that the work of purification – CAN ONLY BE ACCOMPLISHED BY ME.  AND YOU WITH ME.

I, YOUR CAPTAIN, AND YOU, MY SOLDIERS.

MY LUMINOUS ARMY – carrying within it the Light of Faith, of Hope, and of Truth – the Sword that conquers all.

The VICTORY is won, children, but you must still live the battle....

 

...Everything will be shaken, as you cannot imagine; much that you thought permanent will crumble down.

DO NOT BE AFRAID.  LOOK AT ME.

Remember that any “victory” of Our enemy is ILLUSORY. TEMPORAL.  More fleeting than the morning fog.

I AM THE VICTORY.

 A MEMORIAL FOR YOUR LOVED ONE AT MDM

Father John Mary blesses the memorials on the Feast of All Souls.

"Between us and the Holy Souls is a relationship 
of profound mutual love and respect.”

Over the years people have asked us for a way to memorialize their loved one  here at the Mission. We asked God to show us an appropriate means and we believe that He inspired us with an approach that would allow people to not just acknowledge their loved ones and support the Mission, but help remind and encourage all visitors to the Mission of our sacred obligation to pray for the Holy Souls in Purgatory.

The steel frame is erected. And the doors and windows are "in."

 

A NETWORK OF TRUST 

"This is what MDM is called to be: a growing communion of trust in His Mercy for our needy world." ~ Fr. John Mary

MDM started encouraging people to pray "Jesus, I trust in You"  ten times a day back in 2011. Recently we felt it was important to remind people to turn to Jesus with this simple, powerful prayer in a world that feels more and more out of control. We are suggesting 20 times, but some people find themselves repeating it hundreds of times. It reminds our troubled souls that GOD IS IN CONTROL. 

Many of you have put your name on our growing list and have also left a comment or testimony. We ask that prayer intentions be placed at Prayer Request on our website.

Thank you for reminding us in these moments of uncertain turbulence that the only real and important thing is «abandon ourselves and our loved ones, and entrust ourselves to our Lord, with that little prayer: Jesus, in You we trust. Amen». [Homily, 2025-12-28].~ Pilar

Thank you, dear Father Juan María, for each of your homilies, as simple as they are profound that fall on the soul like drops of refreshing dew. Especially thank you for making us feel part of the community regardless of time and space through your words: «The people who have gathered now in this chapel and other people who are further away, but who are attentive» [2026-01- 04]. Also thanks to each member of the MDM for interweaving time, work and dedication so that we can access the messages and homilies. Thank you for being privileged instruments of the Good God. ~Pilar

This last Epiphany, I was commenting with a friend that our last name is Rey, (my hubby's) and my last name Baltazar like one of the kings. So he asked: What did you receive? And I said a great favor or gift that hasn’t happened yet! So the next day, I received the amazing gift of the possibility of having the surgery my heart desperately needs, (I have no insurance and no money for it) so, I am getting everything I need to be operated!!! Please pray for me and my daughter and granddaughter, so it can be a success!! Ave María!!! Jesu ufam tobie~ Miriam

Lord Jesus I trust in you. Have mercy on all of us especially my family that you gave me. ~Vincent

A long time ago I had an internal vision, the Virgin of Guadalupe was at my side!! And she took me by the hand, but I saw myself as a little girl of 3 or 4 years old, that vision always accompanies me - and when I am afraid or hopeless, I go to her to move forward fulfilling the mission that was given to me!! Thanks! A hug in Christ Jesus.~Miriam

We are from Southern California. For several years, my family and I have experienced a number of medical challenges with our ten year old daughter and with a Cancer diagnosis (me). My daughter's diagnosis severely challenged my faith in God. I reached bottom, and I was very angry. About three years ago, a YouTube video from the MDM appeared on my phone which talked about the Mission and about the messages received by Sister Amapola. Since then, I regularly listen to Father John Mary speak about the messages and to his weekly Homilies. Soon after I started listening to Father John Mary, my faith and my hunger to be closer to God and to our Blessed Mother became stronger than ever. On November 23, 2025, my family and I visited the MDM for the first time. Members of the congregation welcomed us and treated us as old friends. Sister Amapola and Father John Mary spent a very generous amount of time talking and patiently listening to us. They also prayed for our daughter and for our family. We are eternally grateful to the most loving members of the MDM, to Father John Mary, to Mother Margaret, to Sister Amapola and to the entire MDM community. We plan to return soon. Sincerely, The Ramirez Family

Your mission is like a beacon of light amid the thick and suffocating darkness spread by the long-prophesized anti-Church. Your prophetic messages line up perfectly with the prophecies from La Salette, Fatima, Garabandal, and Akita, and I am deeply grateful to God that he raised you up as His apostles of these End Times, tasked with preparing the way for the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the glorious Era of Peace. Thank you for your spiritual courage, your saintly discernment, and for your unwavering dedication to the work of Our Lord. May you be richly rewarded by the Holy Trinity in the renewed and reconquered world whose arrival is eagerly awaited by every faithful member of Christ's Church. ~Jakub

Thank you for considering making a donation in support of  MDM. Your donations go directly to the Mission of Divine Mercy Inc. which as of March 2024, is considered "not an approved Catholic apostolate of the Archdiocese of San Antonio." The Mission has no regular source of income.  Every bit of support comes from people like you; people who God introduces to the Mission.  We try to steward your money wisely and make each dollar work hard for Him and for His people.
