This Is the Time of Decision
Excerpt from the Message of Nov. 23, 2024 "The Light Is Coming"
God the Father speaks:
I have said to you that this is the time of DECISION, in which I ask that My children – receiving the Light that I give now – would listen to My Voice, [and] differentiate it from the voice of the false Shepherd[and] of the wolves in sheep’s clothing. And, having their gaze firmly on Me, allow Me to guide them along My Way [that is] now enveloped in the fog of confusion and of the consequences of all the sins and offenses that My Heart has received, and that have blinded and deafened My children.
It is the time of DECISION for My Priest sons and Bishops, of defending My Truth and the honor of My Name, of defending the holiness of My House, of My Temple, of My Throne.
The Hour is coming to a close. CHOOSE, SONS.
You cannot serve two masters.
And you, My little flock, do not fear. I will never leave you without a Shepherd, for the Divine Shepherd NEVER abandons His sheep, even if the rest of the shepherds do.
February 13, 2026 Mission of Divine Mercy
Bishop Joseph Strickland
The Line In The Sand
The Church is in an emergency. Not an emergency invented by commentators, not a mood manufactured by social media, not hysteria.
A real emergency – measured not in feelings, but in facts. An emergency measured by silence where there must be answers. In tolerance where there must be correction. In shepherds who refuse to name wolves, while those who simply want to guard the flock are treated as a problem.
Let me be very clear: this is not about personalities. It is not about preferences. It is not about clinging to the past. It is about survival – not of an institution, but of the priesthood, the sacraments, and the Catholic Faith as it has been received, handed down, and guarded for centuries.
When men who openly contradict Catholic teaching are tolerated, promoted, even celebrated – while those who hold fast to tradition are restricted, sidelined, or ignored – something is upside down....
Our Monthly Social Gathering After Mass will be next Sunday, February 22. We hope you will join us!
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.

I am almost 69 years old and I have lived a life of suffering, which I unite with the LORD and offer for the souls and for the pain of those in need. I don't know if I have the right to ask for relief for my own suffering, because a meningioma and a broken spine sometimes make my days quite difficult. If you think I should ask for help, I leave it to your discretion, because I think that if the LORD sent this to me, it's not right to ask to alleviate the pain. I humbly embrace MARY MOST HOLY and the CROSS of our LORD JESUS CHRIST.
PEACE AND GOODNESS. ~Nancy
**** 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
