Message from Our Lady
August 25, 2010 ::   
"Dear children! With great joy, also today, I desire to call you anew: pray, pray, pray. May this time be a time of personal prayer for you. During the day, find a place where you will pray joyfully in a recollected way. I love you and bless you all. Thank you for having responded to my call."

Message from Our Lady to Mirjana August 2, 2010 ::   
"Dear children! Today I call you, together with me, to begin to build the Kingdom of Heaven in your hearts; that you may forget that what is personal and – led by the example of my Son – think of what is of God. What does He desire of you? Do not permit Satan to open the paths of earthly happiness, the paths without my Son. My children, they are false and last a short while. My Son exists. I offer you eternal happiness and peace and unity with my Son, with God; I offer you the Kingdom of God. Thank you."

Message from Our Lady
July 25, 2010 ::   
"Dear children! Anew I call you to follow me with joy. I desire to lead all of you to my Son, your Savior. You are not aware that without Him you do not have joy and peace, nor a future or eternal life. Therefore, little children, make good use of this time of joyful prayer and surrender. Thank you for having responded to my call."

Message from Our Lady
June 25, 2010 ::   
"Dear children! With joy, I call you all to live my messages with joy; only in this way, little children, will you be able to be closer to my Son. I desire to lead you all only to Him, and in Him you will find true peace and the joy of your heart. I bless you all and love you with immeasurable love. Thank you for having responded to my call."

Message from Our Lady to Mirjana July 2, 2010 ::   
""Dear children, my motherly call, which I direct to you today, is a call of truth and life. My Son, who is Life, loves you and knows you in truth. To come to know and to love yourself, you must come to know my Son; to come to know and to love others, you must see my Son in them. Therefore, my children, pray, pray, that you may comprehend and surrender with a spirit that is free, be completely transformed and, in this way, may have the Kingdom of Heaven in your heart on earth. Thank you!"

Thank you Almighty God, for giving us this precious gift of Your Mother for these past 29 years.
Prayer ::   Heavenly Mother, we thank you for continuing to call us to prayer, conversion, fasting, penance, and peace. May we be mindful that your messages are directed toward each and every one of us. Give us the grace to understand that we are all your "Dear Children", that you are coming to us in this special way to lead us out of darkness and into the light of salvation. May you never tire of teaching us how to be holy, and may we never rest until we are radiating holiness. May each of us be a sign of God's love to others. Amen.

16th Annual Prayer for Peace Marian Conference

November 6 - 7, 2010

Theme:  "Punching Holes in the Darkness."

We warmly welcome you to our 16th Annual Prayer for Peace Conference. Most of you will agree that we are living in a world of darkness. The purpose of this year's conference is to learn how to punch holes in the darkness so that we can truly live in the light - the light of Jesus Christ.

On November 6 - 7, 2010, we will meet and hear from people who are "lamplighters." As we listen to their stories, we'll discover ways to shed some light on the darkness in our own lives and to spread that light to those around us.

Please complete this registration form and mail it to us to sign up for the conference. Tickets are $50 for adults if ordered by 09/01/2010, and $25 for youth under 18 years of age. Tickets for priests and religious are complimentary.

Speakers include:

Ivanka ElezVisionary Ivanka Elez was the first person to see the Mother of God in Medjugorje. She continues to see and converse with Our Lady every June 25th. Known as “The Hidden Visionary”, Ivanka maintained a private life while raising her three young children. Now, she is responding to Our Lady’s direction to spread the messages of Medjugorje throughout the world. Pictured here in Medjugorje, with the Tobins’ Grandchildren, this visionary will inspire you with her sincerity, her simplicity and her faithfulness. Listen as she describes Our Lady’s apparitions and messages and recounts the day Our Lady brought Ivanka’s deceased mother from Heaven to be with her! We are honored and delighted to have Ivanka with us!

 

Father Donald CallowayFather Donald Calloway, MIC, will tell us of his journey from a life of darkness and drugs to a total conversion that eventually led him to the priesthood. All ages are inspired by his presentation. Be sure to bring your teens and young adults. Please visit Fr. Donald's website at Fr. Donald Calloway, MIC.

 

 

 

 

Fr. Nick MormandoFather Nick Mormando, OFM, CAP, comes to us from Hendersonville, NC where he is pastor of Immaculate Conception Parish. His decision to become a priest was prompted by a message in Medjugorje. His deep spirituality is contagious!

 

 


Fr. David Toups, Pastor of Christ the King Parish in Tampa, Florida, is a young, dynamic priest who has held positions as Seminary Dean of Students, retreat master to the Missionaries of Charity, Executive Director of the USCCB's Committee on Clergy, Consecrated Life and Vocations, and more.  Once you meet Fr. David, you will never forget him! Please visit Fr. David's blog at Pastor's Blog Christ the King Church.

 

 

 

Sister Pauline Quinn Sister Pauline Quinn, OP, has a most compelling story, a portion of which was made in to a Lifetime Television Movie:  Within These Walls, starring Laura Dern and Ellyn Burstyn.  Come and hear how this simple nun turned personal tragedy into triumph. Please visit Sr. Pauline's websites at Sr Pauline of the Cross, OP, Prison Dogs, and her amazing photo blog The Journey.

We've taken a huge leap of faith this year. Due to the economic situation that most of us are struggling with, we reduced the price of admission to this year’s conference by $10. (We’d like everyone to be able to participate!) Multiply that by the number of attendees and you’ll understand what we mean by a leap of faith! We’re depending on the collections to make up the difference.

Facilitating this conference is a tremendous amount of work, not to mention a big financial risk. For the past few years, we’ve barely broken even. But the physical, emotional and spiritual healings that take place every year, along with all of the other positive feedback we continue to receive, has compelled us to continue for another year. It has always been our belief that, if even one life is touched, or one soul comes closer to the Lord, that, alone, is worth more than all of the time, effort and resources that it takes to put on this two-day even. Practically speaking, however, the conference MUST pay for itself.

But we need to do more than just cover our costs. There are children whose very lives are dependent on revenue from this conference. We need funds to bring critically ill children to this country for life-saving surgery. Money is also needed for surgery and related expenses, prosthetic limbs, diagnostic testing and treatment for epilepsy, physical therapy, diabetic test strips, help for specific children with special needs, food, bus money for school, medical equipment, building materials, and the list goes on.
