“Guard in your heart the precious pearl of a personal call to live in profound intimacy of life with your heavenly Mother.” Each of us is puzzled to learn that the Queen of Heaven has chosen us to be priests “especially beloved of my Immaculate Heart” (# 64 g) and to share such a close and privileged friendship with her. We wonder why we would be of any particular interest to her and what exactly are the “great designs” she has for us. |
MMP USA: DIRECTOR'S CORNER: There were true miracles performed by Jesus and Mary through Fr. Gobbi on the occasion of his many cenacles around the world. There are also many graces and at least one reported miracle obtained after his death. He is truly a Saint. I cherish the memory of having traveled with him throughout Canada on four occasions, of the times I was his guest in Italy, of the retreat cenacles guided by him, of the many personal letters that he wrote to me over the years, and of the messages that the Blessed Mother addressed to me personally through him, especially a longer one in which she asked me to travel full time to conduct cenacles in the U.S. and Canada.
ENCYCLICAL OF POPE JOHN XXIII ON ST. JOHN VIANNEY, AUGUST 1, 1959
To Our Venerable Brethren, the Patriarchs, Primates, Archbishops, Bishops, and other Local Ordinaries in Peace and Communion with the Apostolic See.
Venerable Brethren, Health and Apostolic Benediction.
When We think of the first days of Our priesthood, which were so full of joyous consolations, We are reminded of one event that moved Us to the very depths of Our soul: the sacred ceremonies that were carried out so majestically in the Basilica of St. Peter's on January 8, 1905, when John Mary Baptist Vianney, a very humble French priest, was enrolled in the lists of the Blessed in Heaven.

THE MMP IS THE FULFILMENT OF THE PROPHECIES OF ST. LOUIS GRIGNION DE MONTFORT ON THE APOSTLES OF THE LAST TIMES. |
Don Stefano has often spoken to us on this topic: I have chosen it because I have always been fascinated about the fact that we are a part of God's plan for these times, as was revealed to St Louis G DeMontfort, because theSaint's prophecy gives us a greater belief in the authenticity of Our Lady's Messages to us, her beloved sons.
