Just a Little Heads-Up...

...In our Christmas Day email, God willing, we will be publishing a Message from August 2017,
titled "Rest for Your Soul."
It is our special Christmas Gift to you, our friends.

In the Midst of the Darkness,
You Are Surrounded by Light

My Light Descends
Through My Jesus

Christ%20is%20the%20LIGHT.jpeg

Excerpt from November 23rd, 2024.  Feast of Christ the King. 

  “The Light is Coming.”  
 

God the Father speaks:

...Children, do not be afraid.  In the midst of the darkness in which you live, you are surrounded by LIGHT. My Commandments give you Light. 

...The Gospel of My Jesus gives you Light. 

His Blood gives you Light. 

His Face gives you Light. 

His Heart gives you Light. 

The testimony of your brothers throughout the centuries gives you Light. 

My Words, spread throughout the world in this time, give you Light. 

 ....

The infinite Light that pierces all barriers, all darkness, all hatred and fear, all treason and blasphemy. 

The Light that descends from My Heart to yours, through the Heart made Flesh of My Jesus – the Heart of a tiny Baby; God in His fullness Who makes Himself so small to bring you My Kiss, full of Peace and the Hope of My Promise, of My desire that you be with Me for all eternity. 

Receive My Jesus.  Console Him.  Love Him.  LISTEN TO HIM. 

With how much Love do I give Him to you.

Stigmatist Prophesied Two Successive Antipopes

Screenshot%202025-12-12%20at%204_50_22%E2%80%AFPM.png
Author Xavier Ayral argues that the Catholic Church is now living through a time foreseen by mystics, saints, and Marian apparitions, an era of confusion, apostasy, and deception. Citing La Salette, Fatima, Marie-Julie Jahenny, and more, he claims these prophecies foretold two anti-popes and a temporary takeover of the Church by false shepherds.

 

 

SORRY, NOT THIS MONTH

We will not have our monthly after-Mass social on December 21 since it is so close to Christmas and our generous volunteers need some time off to concentrate on their own households. We are very grateful for all their service throughout the year.
God willing, we will resume in January.

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.

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

I am with you guys and will pray for your little group. Mama Mary, protect you all from POPO Payaso Leo and the Bergolian church.~ Aldo

I support and pray for you.~ Anonymous

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, Congregation of the MDM, for being a beacon for the world with your FIAT, which responds to and completes the FIAT of Mary and the FIAT of Christ. We are praying for you, especially on November 13th for Sister Amapola, repeating the prayer that Our Mother taught to Father Stefano Gobbi: “Come, Holy Spirit, come through the powerful intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, your most beloved spouse.”~Pilar

Dearest MDM family, Thank you for sharing about Sr. Amapola appointment with tribunal. In St. Louis Mary has been appearing to a local farmer for 20 years in the 13th of every month at the shrine of the Miraculous Medal. We say the 20 decade rosary, litanies, chaplet and we are given that days message. I will be lifting her & your community in prayer. Also, a HUGE thank you for also sharing the past message where Mary refers to herself as Co-Redemptrix. God have mercy on our church leaders. ~Araceli

I eagerly await your videos. I absolutely believe that every word comes from Heaven, from the Father, the Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and the Blessed Virgin Mary. I love you, brothers and sisters, and I know that God works in you. From the very first message, I cried and laughed; they were my questions to the Lord, and they were answered by the Divine Mercy Mission, by you, my brothers and sisters. Thank you.
Father Foster, please continue. We know you are innocent of all this. In these times of so much evil, God's priests are persecuted. I know this and I pray for it. We need you, as well as your community. Thank you and blessings from Chile! Hugs, brothers and sisters! ~Claudia

The mission: a space of light in the spiritual desert to which we must “flee.” Jesus I trust in You.~Anonymous

****

I feel the presence of God when I visit the Mission. I am hoping that I may be of service someday. For now I will pray "Jesus I trust in You" 20 times a day, and wait for guidance and continue to visit as often as I can God willing. ~Dale

My husband and I were at the MDM from California in September, he can work from anywhere that has internet. Only one week we were there, and we brought back many blessings with us, my only prayer from now on is: in the name of Jesus, Heavenly Father l want what You want in every moment of my life, and for my family too. I want to thank everyone we met at the MDM, they were very kind and patient with us. Beautiful and Peaceful place. Blessings with Love. ~María.
