Gift of the Father, Son & Spirit for These Times
Home, Refuge, Fortress and Citadel
"Come to My Heart, My little ones.
Come to the Home and the Citadel prepared for you by the Father for these times.
Take refuge in My Immaculate Heart and do not fear.
Why is My Immaculate Heart your sure refuge, the fortress that protects you?
Because it is the Gift of the Father, of the Son, and of the Most Holy Spirit of God – given to you in Love, out of Love, and through the Immense Suffering on the Cross and at the foot of the Cross.The two Rivers of Pain that unite in the Great Offering and Reparation to the Heart of the Father.
Do not reject this Gift, My children.Do not think it unnecessary.
Every Grace and Gift that comes forth from the Heart of the Father is a help to you, a Sign of His Love for His children, a protection from the wiles of the enemy, and an opportunity to cooperate with His Plan, with His Will.[1]
DO NOT DESPISE HIS GIFTS, My children.
When He speaks, it is because you must listen – for His Voice is Love.When He gives, you should receive, for His Gift is always Love.
My children – you at least – receive His Gifts, receive all that comes from His Heart, from His Hands, for they are treasures.And in all of them is the Infinite, All Holy, All Beautiful Gift of His Son, of His Jesus.
Just as He is generous in giving, My little ones, I teach you to be generous in receiving."
(Excerpt from the Seventh Message:Consoling the Heart of the Father)
[1] By “Grace and Gift” I understand that He is referring not only to sanctifying Grace and all the actual Graces, but also to the different charismatic gifts and all the prophetic words, signs, missions, and actions that He sends.
There will not be the usual 3rd Sunday post-Mass social gathering at the OCC this weekend. The kitchen volunteers are still recovering from Easter breakfast!
Everyone is invited to join the Community for a Holy Hour of Adoration every Thursday evening from 7-8PM at St. Joseph Chapel. On the first Thursday of the month, the Holy Hour concludes with A Prayer for Healing.
Do You Have A Question?
Our publication of the Lord's Messages, and the recent decrees from the Archbishop have raised many questions in the minds of people and many are emailing us. So many, in fact, that we are having difficulty responding to all of them. Father John Mary would like to try answer the most frequently asked questions through FAQs on our website, and eventually through a video blog that he hopes to begin. If you have a question you can send it to: questions@mdm.faithUnfortunately, we won't be able to answer all of them, but we will read all of them.
Supporting the Mission: Social Media, Videos and Podcasts
Many people are asking how they can help the Mission as we enter this new time of the Messages. As always, your prayers are the most important!
But another way of helping is by sharing the Lord’s Messages with others. To give the Messages the widest possible audience we are using social media, video streaming and podcasts--yes, we even have a Mission of Divine Mercy podcast site!
And still another way is by leaving positive comments on social media, when you feel you can, in response to comments from those who don't know the Mission at all. We ask you to clear up misconceptions and share the truth peacefully, without engaging in protracted battles. Thank you for your efforts.
These are the current platforms where the Messages, homilies, videos, etc. can be found:
Social Media: Facebook, X, Gab, Truth, Locals and Telegram
Videos: YouTube, Rumble and Vimeo
Audios / Podcasts: Spotify and Apple Podcasts
Jesus, we trust in You.
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 prayer intention or testimony: ******
God Bless You! The world desperately needs these messages, and your courage in the face of adversity. ~Jennifer

The day I first read the message containing the explanation for the recitation of “Jesus I trust in You” ten times, I was thinking how sweet that was, especially that in the recent times you had been asking people to say it twenty times a day and that people were finding themselves saying it hundreds of times a day. I remember wondering if these messages were real, and that I hoped they were, but I wasn’t sure. I went to my weekly confession before Mass, and the priest gave me my penance, one I had never been given before in my life. It was to say twenty times: “Jesus, I trust in You.” I was a bit overcome with the profound grace I had been given. The priest could not have known about me reading about the messages and the request for this prayer. But, as the priest is in persona Christe, I knew it was Jesus through the priest who gave me both the penance and the grace. Deo gratias!~Anonymous

It takes faith, courage and conviction to stand firm and deliver the messages that The Mission believes to be the authentic Word of God. ~Todd

I have heard and believed every word of Father John Mary messages. From the very beginning of this Popes stay I knew he was not bringing the true gospel of Jesus. What you have brought us in Christs words have strengthened our hearts and our faith and a deeper love for God Jesus Holy Spirit and our Blessed Mother. I just listened to the 7th message and I was even more hopeful and love for God. Thank you for your courage and Faith in our Lord. We will be praying and supporting you with our prayers and money.~Jae

Hello, and God bless you all there. I am a devout Catholic living in rural Central Minnesota. I have for many years been interested in private revelation. Of course, I have made mistakes, and been misled, and thus I strive to study messages where seers have the support and guidance of strong priests as spiritual advisors. I have quickly realized that you guys are the real deal. Please pray for my younger son who is suddenly going through divorce...for the slowing on my hearing loss...for strength as I finish my 37th year of teaching. I teach English and direct a poetry program called Verse Like Water at Central Lakes College. Even though it is secular, and very left leaning in a state that is horrifically blue, I talk about God all the time, and I always have a cohort of what I call my "Catholic kids." Other Christians are drawn to my classes too...Please pray for all of us, and may the Holy Family keep looking after you down there. ~Jeff

These messages are exactly what we, the laity, have needed by way of encouragement for many, many years now. Christ's church has been hi-jacked but, it is HIS church, and we know that the "gates of hell shall not prevail against it!" As our Blessed Lady said to Fr Stefano Gobbi on October 18, 1973, "My adversary will one day think that he is celebrating a complete victory over the world, over the Church, over souls. It will be only then that I will intervene -- terrible and victorious -- that his defeat may be all the greater when he is certain in his conviction that he has conquered once for all. ~Pauline
