MARY: My little sorrowful rose, I ask you once again to pick up your pen and write. I am the Queen of Heaven and the Queen of the world, through whom the Incarnate Word of God willed to be born. I remain humble and God's servant to bring the swift triumph of My Heart, that ALL knees shall bend, and all lips proclaim the Praises of Jesus! True God! True Man!

Our Lady prompts me here to write of the visions that have been given to me these past six weeks.

While reciting the rosary during a Marian Movement of Priests cenacle the day after Christmas, I was shown a different version of a vision that was originally given to me when I visited Canada last year. Whereas in the vision of  April 29, 1999 I could see a clock in the heavens to the left of the illuminated cross, in this new version the numbers of the clock encircle the whole vision. I can see the illuminated cross at the number 12. Jesus, walking very fast, turns to me and points to the cross that is in the heavens. Then this vision is taken away and near the number 5 I see a beautiful vision of Our Lady seated on a throne. She is regal and resplendent, dressed in gold, wearing a crown with twelve points, each with a star at its top. In the front band of the crown there are two jewels to the right and two to the left. Then I see our Holy Father, John Paul II, kneel before her and place a jewel that is slightly larger than the other four in the center of the crown. When that vision is taken away I am shown what I can only call a "slide show" of visions of disasters that I have been given over these past several years. They come rapidly, one after another: the volcano erupting, the furious winds of a hurricane, severe flooding, rivers of mud, a huge earthquake, severe storms. Without words, I am given this understanding: "Pray! Pray harder! Many, many people will die!"

Several times during this month of January, 2000, during prayer or during my thanksgiving after Holy Communion at mass, I am again shown a vision that was first given to me on February 3,1993. It is as vivid to me now as the day I first received it. It is a vision of God the Father holding the body of Jesus as Our Lady holds Jesus in the Pieta. I cannot see the Father's face. I am given the understanding that He is asking for prayer. This vision was first given to me after the election of the current president, some of whose policies are morally offensive to God. God the Father had told me then that this nation had chosen to turn its back on Him, and that consequently He would turn His back on this nation. (I believe these moral issues are critical to us. We must choose leaders who live their faith in God, who have moral integrity, who know what is right and who stand for right and will do right just because it is right. We have been in a time of mercy. But all must surely see that that time is nearing an end. In my heart I believe that we will see a greater show of God's fury soon.)

Our Lady continues:

MARY: Now, my little sorrowful rose, I tell you that I, as Queen, continue to obtain mercy. It is through my mediation that the blows of Gods justice have not been fully realized. It is through the humble and lowly who persevere amidst scandals and scoffing, amidst persecution and torment. It is through those whose spirits BURN, hear what I say, BURN with the fire of Gods Love. Gods Spirit compels them to a life of prayer and surrender to the Will of God. It is with you, my seed, (Genesis 3:15) that I will defeat the enemy of God! Children of Mary, you are my remnant who hold the line of this spiritual battle by offering to my Son through me your sufferings, tears, sorrows and pain. If yours (tears) fall like tears of gold into my lap, will I not do the same for all who allow me? Your offerings are sweet and fragrant, for what you offer in secret is known to the Father of Love.

You ask me for a sign for God's people. If you will persevere with faithfulness, my presence will thus be felt in an ever-stronger way. Those whose faith is strong will believe, because the Truth confirms in their spirit the Truth of God. But for the sake of the weak you will see a mighty sign, the sign promised and long awaited, as at the first coming. That sign will be a light to shine in the darkness of man's heart, to reveal ALL that is thought to be secret, but known to God. My Son's Vicar, John Paul II, is surrounded by enemies. Weakened physically, but spiritually strong, he will come under grave attack, but not before he proclaims my title and fulfills the Will of God. It is his hour of immolation. Pray my child, pray. Grave, grave events, once again, loom on the horizon. Persevere in your prayer. Remain bound to the Heart of Jesus. It accomplishes much. The confusion in the remnant abounds. Only those grounded on the Rock will stand. I will bring to fulfillment all that has been asked of this apostolate. I will open doors. Do not worry or fear. Persevere. I am the Mother of Mercy. God gives to each soul a measure of mercy and a measure of his justice. When the mercy is exhausted, the justice must be poured (out). All souls, STILL, throughout the time of justice, will have recourse to His Mercy. But they must choose.

Tell Father Jim, who is the priest of my Heart, that My Son will bless all his endeavors. He is guided by Me and I do obtain from the Trinity all that is needed for him to fulfill his mission. Let nothing and no one disturb you. The testing makes for strength, and strength for love.

Keep your hearts and eyes fastened to the Two Hearts.

This, in God's year of great favor, is MY GREATEST TRIUMPH! It IS the Year of Eucharistic Triumph!!

Through My Heart, I bless you and ALL who believe.

SJ: AMEN.

Note to this message: As I finished receiving this message, I placed the handwritten copy on the altar and began to pray. Immediately I began to hear Our Heavenly Father. I began to pray, and test, according to 1 John: 4. I also prayed that the Precious Blood of Jesus would cover me, and for St. Michael to protect me. God the Father answered me as follows:

I AM THE FATHER, WHO GAVE MY ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, WHO FOR LOVE OF ME AND MY WILL REMAINS HIDDEN IN HIS LOVE FOR MANKIND! TRUE FLESH, THOUGH DIVINE!

The sweetness of your love, of your prayers rises to the throne room of the Godhead. I desire all to believe, as you have believed, in the writings of the daughters of My Will: words of Love previously given, evermore true. (Here I understand the Father to refer to revelations of his tender love for his children given to several holy women who lived only to do the Father's will perfectly, but especially Mother Eugenia Elisabetta Ravasio.)

I am not a God to be feared, but rather a Father who looks to the good of His children. I have longed to be made welcome in the hearts of those who do not remember they have their Father in Heaven. Yet, I AM where My Son is. I dwell with the Spirit in my children's souls that they may attain what I desire: their holiness, love for one another, and an end of this fascination and bondage to other gods and idols who DO NOT GIVE LIFE!

Those who cannot believe, those who will not believe, those who have believed and have been led astray, as well as those who believed and have fallen away, will fulfill many prophecies, and scripture besides. For My Son's return WILL FIND FEW (people) WITH FAITH! (Luke 18:8)

Would I permit the killing of more innocents? Have I not heard the cries and wailing of the innocent? Mercy comes with justice! But little more will I stand!

Prepare my daughter for what comes: the defeat of ALL my enemies! Amidst the throes of my justice comes the fulfillment of my mercy! I AM THE FATHER OF LOVE, AND JESUS IS LOVE.

This house (The Father's House of Victory through the Holy Family) will be instrumental in the days ahead for the people of God, and for his priests. Do not question, have faith. My greatest gift comes!

I bless you with great love and graces.

SJ: AMEN

Feast of Pentecost

Sunday, February 13, 2000

In my meditation during Mass this morning, as the consecration neared, I was imploring God to make me as attentive as the angels. Right before Father elevated the host I had my eyes closed, and I saw St. Joseph holding the baby Jesus and lifting him high in the air, as I also have done with my children when they were babies. I then immediately saw the Blessed Mother do the same. St. Joseph was on the right, Our Lady to the left. First St. Joseph did it, then Our Lady. This scene disappeared and as Father elevated the host I saw the crucifix rise with Jesus on it. It was as if the cross had lain on the ground and then was raised after our Lord had been nailed to it. I felt the love of St. Joseph and Our Lady, obediently giving Jesus up to this horrible death for love of God and all of us. I was flooded with a love I cannot describe. I was reminded then of St. Don Bosco who said these would be the times of St. Joseph. At Fatima Our Lady appeared first with the child Jesus as Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, then as Our Lady of Sorrows, and lastly with St. Joseph holding the child Jesus, as the Holy Family. I have asked St. Joseph to be the head of my house and to help me always in my times of trouble. He was saying, "Do not fear! God has not abandoned you, and neither will I. I will continue to intercede for you."

March 1, 2000

Today, while making my thanksgiving after receiving Holy Communion, I had a vision of a young girl. I rebuked in the name of Jesus ordering this vision to go if it was not of God. At first I thought it was the Blessed Mother, but then I realized it was St. Philomena. She was dressed in a white gown, but she had what appeared to be the long tunic that a medieval knight would wear. It was red in color with a gold cross on the breast. At the right shoulder there was a blue shield with two crowns overlapping somewhat like the two hearts do. She was holding arrows in her hand. I was overwhelmed. I tested, and then I began to ask the Lord to please give me understanding. I received the following as I heard, "Peace, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, in whose name I come and whom I praise along with you. I have been sent to you. I will help you fight off the fiery darts of the enemy, and I will be with you in your martyrdom." This occurred after Holy Mass while I was praying before the Blessed Sacrament. I was overwhelmed and wanted to understand these visions. I prayed interiorly, "Jesus, please give me understanding. Please speak to me through your words to my sister, Saint Faustina." Again, holding her Diary near my heart, I randomly opened it and my eyes gazed on these words: "Jesus answered me, I want you to become like a knight experienced in battle, who can give orders to others amid the exploding shells. In the same way, my child, you should know how to master yourself amid the greatest difficulties, and let nothing drive you away from Me, not even your falls." (Kowalska, Sister M. Faustina, Diary, Divine Mercy in My Soul, Congregation of Marians, Stockbridge, MA, 1987, p. 643)

April 16, 2000 - Palm Sunday

Making my thanksgiving after receiving Holy Communion, Elat, Israel:

This vision was very simple, yet profound. I saw Jesus at the head of a long "cavalry line" of saints! They seemed to be in formation waiting for His signal. Jesus was walking back and forth as one ready to go forward and just making "last minute" checks. The saints were three abreast on white horses and they were dressed in white gowns! There were no words, just a wonderful sight to behold. "The communion of saints" comes alive to my heart. We are not going to be alone in this battle!

May 10, 2000

I refer here to a vision of the world exploding in fire, given to me almost one year ago on June 10, 1999, which included the Blessed Trinity and the Blessed Mother. (The Great Sign, Volume II, page 92)

Today I was shown a similar vision, with this difference. This time I only saw the world. Very simply, while in prayer, I saw a vision of the world, and then it exploded into fire. The fire I saw this time indicated to me that it would be the "fire of the Holy Spirit" (as in the Warning) and also the element of physical fire that would purify the world. This will be from natural causes that could include human acts, storms, earth movements and even a collision with an object from deep space.

June 7, 2000

Today, after receiving Holy Communion, I was shown Jesus as He looks in the statue as depicted in "Christ the Redeemer". He is in royal purple garb and is also wearing a crown of thorns with his hands bound. He kept looking at me, as if to say, "Why will you not help me?" He would look at me and then turn in different directions as if he was looking for someone to help him untie his hands. Then I saw the Holy Father, John Paul II, fall dead across the bound hands of Jesus. Later that evening, during the Marian Movement of Priests cenacle that Father Jim hosts with the Blessed Sacrament exposed, I began to see the same vision of Jesus, dressed in purple and His hands bound. All of a sudden I saw Our Lady dressed in a red gown with a white mantle. I have never seen Our Lady dressed like this. But I could see Her Heart with little roses around it, like in pictures. Over Her Heart were seven little flames. She had her hands extended outward as in Our Lady of Grace and there were rays of light coming from her fingers. I was given the understanding that, as the Spouse of the Holy Spirit, it is given to Her to dispense the graces and gifts.

I then saw a person kneeling in prayer, whose heart looked dark and had a lock on it. I saw a second person in prayer, and this person seemed to be bathed in a light, a beautiful, misty, bright light! I understood the person with the lock to symbolize those people whose hearts block the graces of the Holy Spirit, and the other person bathed in light to symbolize those who open their hearts to the graces and gifts of the Holy Spirit.

Our Lady continues:

MARY: My little sorrowful rose, tell my children: You have been called to walk by faith and to walk in the Truth amidst the ever growing confrontation between those who are mine (by their consecration and response to Her requests), and those who oppose My Son and My Son's Vicar.

I, as the mother of all humanity, have diligently manifested my presence to awaken the "living dead," to sooth the wounds of my faithful. Too many have lost sight of my messages and have once again become lukewarm and complacent. Too many are involved and concerned with the (lures of the) world, so that in themselves they fulfill scripture, "When the Son of Man returns to the earth, will He find any faith?" (Luke 18:8)

The world has been given the great gift of Mercy, a very important proclamation in these times. The Pope of my Heart, My Son's Vicar, has come to the final stage of his pontificate. But once more he must place the world in my Heart.

The blows of justice are upon humanity in an ever-increasing way. Yet, through the trials I AM WITH YOU. NEVER, FEAR MY CHILDREN, I AM WITH YOU!

Pray and tell all those who will listen: "Be vigilant and watch! Be open to the gifts of My Beloved Spouse, which will strengthen and fortify you for the days ahead."

What more can I say? All has been said and those who have persevered will rejoice, for you (the remnant), through your prayers and sufferings, will unbind the hands of Jesus by obtaining grace for my priest sons who, (soon) will no longer deny the Truths they were called to carry out. My children do not be like the man in the vision, whose darkened and closed heart is seen by God!

Allow yourselves to be bathed in the graces I am pouring upon those in my cenacles of prayer, grace to see what others in the world cannot see. Grace to hear what others in the world cannot hear. Pray my child for the next few months will see increasing devastation and catastrophic events. Nature's fury will reflect the fury of God! Hold in your hearts that the omnipotent powers of God, manifested through THE HOLY SPIRIT, will be your saving grace in the time of trial!

Again (I tell you) keep your hearts and eyes fastened to My Heart, (which is) joined to the Sacred Heart of My Son!

The heavens will be shaken and the earth will tremble, but I AM WITH YOU!

Through my motherly heart, I bless you and those who believe.

SJ: AMEN!

Note: Humanity lies wounded and broken in the midst of evil, corruption, and confusion. It is no longer able to lift itself up from the mire of sin that weighs it down. For many years we have been given messages from different sources. People have become "message junkies". The silence I have had, with the exception of the visions described in the above message, has been a call for us to be GROUNDED IN THE TRUTH AND TEACHINGS OF THE FAITH! Our Lady has not said anything new here. But She, with Jesus, is preparing the remnant for the final battle. The remnant has become smaller. But this is actually sifting the "chaff from the wheat". Those who need "signs and wonders" will be hard pressed in the days ahead. Remember that God's enemy is a great mimic and like the magicians of Exodus, his agents will also perform signs and wonders. Perseverance in the Truth is hard, but necessary. Please remain faithful to your prayer cenacle. Make your consecration and/or re-new it. Time is very, very short.

 August 1, 2000

After testing what I was beginning to "hear," Our Lady answered me:

MARY: "I am the Mother of Mercy, and in me Love and Mercy took life and flesh, born of my womb, JESUS, King of Mercy! Praise the Omnipotent God for this Love!"

Here Our Lady asked me to describe my last vision.

On June 27, 2000 while I was making my thanksgiving after having received Holy Communion, I was shown an angel high in the heavens. Beautiful and dazzling in white, he was large and powerful and wielding a sword raised in the air. Beneath him I clearly saw a map of the North American continent. I was given the understanding that he was the angel of God's wrath and that his gaze was fixed on the Blessed Trinity.

Our Lady continued:

MARY: "My little sorrowful rose, I am the woman clothed with the sun, the one who crushes the head of the evil one with my heel. Because of the great response by the few, I have obtained from the Father Mercy, which many souls have neither appreciated nor taken the time to use wisely. Recall the wisdom of the virgins preparing for the bridegroom. (Matthew 25:1-13)

I am the Ark of the New Covenant and in the secure refuge of my heart you and my children will withstand the storm that comes!

There is a darkness so profound that it permeates the air, a spiritual darkness seen only by those whose lives have responded to the cry and tears of the Mother. The evil of today is so great that it surpasses that of any other time. In my requests I have asked for the hearts (of my children) so that I might form and mold (them) to the Will of God, (that is) holiness. I have asked all to follow in imitation of my humility and obedience to the Divine Will of God.

On this day again you recall the request made of you by me, and I embrace you today and thank you for your co-operation. Now I ask you to announce to all: 'Waste no more time. I call you to be apostles of these latter days! Give REAL WITNESS TO TRUTH BY YOUR ACTIONS MORE THAN YOUR WORDS.'

My priest sons feeling the weight of their crosses are assisted by your prayers and suffering. Some will give their lives in this battle. Others are preparing to lead the remnant through this battle of all battles. Those who remain (after the persecution) will see that the Church will flourish once again in holiness and will be the center and heartbeat of lives having gone through the trial. Woe to those who reject the great gift of Mercy to be shown in the light of His Truth!

For this I have sought victim souls to suffer and pray with me to bring an end to evil, and to bring the true peace of Christ to the world. In the Triumph of My Immaculate Heart you will see the Eucharistic Reign of Jesus! Those who refuse now to bend their knees and hearts to their King and Lord will be no more! True reverence and holiness will flourish to renew the Church and the world.

What has been shown to you in the past is true. None will live in the Era of Peace as they do now. Only the TRUTH that IS, even now, will flourish. The plan of evil is to destroy from within by a great apostasy. Because of the luke-warmness of so many, it is foolishly believed that TRUTH will be extinguished! But evil will not triumph or prevail!

I am the handmaid of the Lord, His daughter, His mother, and His spouse. Yet more than that, I am His servant! I am the Mother of the Divine One, and the Mother of all Humanity. I weep! Yes, I weep for all the hearts still obstinately closed to their creator, for those called to be another Christ through their vocation and who bring NO glory to God!

The vicar of my Son is leading (the Church) and will soon rest in his reward for all the sufferings he endures (now).

Do not stop your pleas for Mercy. You have touched the Heart of God by your yes to me, and by that which you continue to suffer. You will accomplish through this apostolate that which was asked of you. Continue to cast your cares to God through your prayers. He hears and He answers!"

SJ: What of the Cross of Peace?

MARY: "The Cross (of Peace) has been given to be a spiritual beacon of hope and light, and to prepare (this valley and surrounding areas) for my Son's Second Coming, to draw mankind to the light of His Love and Mercy. Here families will flourish and be as the Holy Family, sanctified by the Blood of my Son and through their daily lives as families consecrated to God. Many have come, but many more will come and find refuge here. Conform your hearts to the request that God's Will and not man's will, prevail.

Cataclysmic events will soon be upon you! (Now) you see only the rumblings of God's wrath, the angel of which now lets his sword fall! Do not fear! The power of God rests upon you and upon those truly aware of His power and grace! The fire of the Holy Spirit falls! It is He who will transform consciences and wills!

On this day I give you a special blessing and I bless all who believe."

SJ: AMEN!

Note to this message: On this day eight years ago I "heard" Our Lady for the first time. I was meditating and reflecting on the many things I had gone through and the many ways I had been blessed. My prayer always at the end of receiving a message is "My God, if this is not of you then wipe me off the face of the earth!" Today I added, "But if it is from you, then I need to get in touch with Father Jim." I laid the message on the altar and as I walked into the kitchen the phone rang. It was Father Jim. Father is away for a month and I did not have a way to contact him. But as always, with prayer and surrender, God will have his way.

Our Lady says nothing new here. She only reiterates what she has said in the past. Her pleas and requests have for the most part gone unheeded. She mentions that there are only very few who have truly "lived the messages." But these few have been able to help her mitigate much that had been prophesied to happen. All prophecy is true, but it is conditional on the response of God's people. This angel that I was shown was powerful. But my thoughts turned to another powerful angel that had been rendered powerless in the past by many sincerely praying the Chaplet of Divine Mercy given to St. Faustina that concludes: "HOLY GOD, HOLY MIGHTY ONE, HOLY IMMORTAL ONE, HAVE MERCY ON US AND ON THE WHOLE WORLD." I have been asked to continue the pleas for Mercy, but the request is not just of me. It is made to ALL that have Faith and are willing to offer the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ to our Eternal Father to lighten the trial for all during those days right ahead of us! (Rev. 5:6)

But most importantly, DO NOT FEAR! TRUST! PRAY AND TRUST!

In union of prayer,
Sadie Jaramillo

October 4, 2000
Feast of St. Francis of Assisi

Our Lady begins to call me to write, and after testing I am given the following:

MARY: My little sorrowful rose, I am the Mother of Mercy who held within my womb the flesh and blood and divinity of JESUS, My Son! Born of the Spirit and given to man! Within the Trinity where I dwell I praise God for His Great Love! Your love and praise I receive to present before the Godhead to assist in my Triumph! Now is the time for you to release the visions given to you.

The following accounts are of the visions I have been shown, in chronological order.

VISION OF AUGUST 27, 2000 - (at prayer during MMP cenacle)

Today is Sunday, and we gathered at O.L.'s house, to pray a Marian Movement of Priests cenacle. During the third mystery of the rosary, I began to see a very disturbing vision. I began to interiorly pray, and I tested. The vision continued, as if being replayed over and over.

I see a young child running in terror. Boy or girl, I cannot tell. I see two adults, whom I would assume are the parents, running behind the child. Their skin is severely burned and it seems as if it were hanging from their bones. I do not know the cause of the burns. They are running and crying. The vision ends.

However it keeps recurring at prayer. It compels me to pray more.

VISION OF SEPTEMBER 7, 2000 - (at prayer during MMP cenacle)

Tonight, Thursday, during the MMP cenacle I am shown once again the vision of the child and parents. I pray and test.

Then I am shown a huge wall of water, as if in a tidal wave. This wall of water is massive. I do not know where it is. But as always in such visions, I know I am being called to pray, and to urge others to pray, to mitigate what will occur if nothing changes, and for the souls of the people who will die if these events do occur. That scene is taken away, and then I am shown a high rise building. This building has a long row of flags, seemingly from many countries, for they are all different. I am given an understanding of "Manhattan." The Lord brings to remembrance a vision given to me September 9, 1996 (page 341 of Volume I of "The Great Sign") in which I was shown a missile and heard the word "Manhattan."

VISION OF SEPTEMBER 14, 2000 -(at prayer during MMP cenacle)

Today I am shown the most beautiful vision of Our Lady. She looks very much like the statue I have seen in Lourdes, with the magnificent crown. In this vision Our Lady is dressed all in gold with a crown. Interestingly, this vision has a golden hue to it. She looks royal and majestic. She is standing on the moon, very much like the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe. She points to the sun, and as She does this, She begins to move her hand in swirling motions, like the conductor of an orchestra. The sun begins to move and dance in the same movement of her hand. It seems like the sun is loosened from the sky and has no "fixed" place.

VISION OF SEPTEMBER 20, 2000 - (during recitation of Chaplet of Divine Mercy after mass)

Today, I am shown a beautiful vision of Jesus. He appears as the image of Divine Mercy.

He is standing looking at me, and then I see the world, as if it is being held in front of Him. I can see the outlines of the countries, but all around the rim of the image of the world there are flames of fire. Then Jesus' image rises high into the heavens and I am shown the Blessed Trinity. The Father is at the very top sitting on a throne. The Father and Jesus look the same, except that the Father's hair is white. From the throne it appears there is running water, like a stream. Jesus is at the lower right hand side, still appearing as the image of Divine Mercy with a pale ray issuing from his heart. Water begins to come forth from the pale ray, as if the water from the Father's throne were flowing through Jesus' heart and out in the pale ray. I see another person, who looks very much like Jesus and the Father, although somewhat transparent. The way they are shown to me in the vision is as if they are in the form of the triangle. The Father is at the top, with the Holy Spirit to the left and Jesus to the right. I cannot describe the love that the Trinity has for us. It seems that my heart will burst. It is almost painful to experience.

All of a sudden I see the image of Our Lady, as a Queen sitting on a throne, in the middle of the Trinity.

This vision is overwhelming to me, for it seems they are allowing me to feel their love.

VISION OF SEPTEMBER 21, 2000 - (during recitation of Chaplet of Mercy after mass)

Today I am shown another awesome vision that is powerfully moving for me.

I am shown the same image of Our Lady described above, majestic in gold. She is high in the heavens and to the left. Beneath Our Lady there is a long line of people praying on their knees. Interspersed are priests and nuns in habits. The line of people runs diagonally from Our Lady. Their backs are facing me. Another line of people is opposite to and facing the first line. I can see their faces. There are priests and laymen and women in the second line. I am given an understanding that some of the women are nuns without habits. But they aren't praying, and they aren't kneeling. They look as if they are ready to devour the praying religious and laity. They have angry, demonic looks, and are trying to get to the line of people who are praying.

The distance between the two lines of people gets very narrow. Then all of a sudden they are shoved back so the distance becomes very wide. They begin to shake their fists and direct the looks of defiance and hate towards Our Lady who is still present in the vision.

I then see priests, but in particular my spiritual director, brought forward a little from the others in the line of kneeling prayer warriors. HUGE angels are assisting them. I see the angels placing breastplates and helmets on the priests. They are still kneeling.

I am overwhelmed by this vision, but there is more. Jesus then appears on the right side of the vision and Our Lady is still on the left. I begin to see priests come out of their hearts! These priests have a somewhat dazed look about them. It is as though they are "waking up." That is the only way I can put it.

VISION OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2000 - (During recitation of Chaplet of Mercy)

During the recitation of the Chaplet of Mercy I began to be shown this vision:

I see Our Lady dressed regally, all in gold with the crown, as I have been shown in all these visions. She is standing in the heavens, Her gaze intently looking at what is being shown to me. At the bottom of this vision and to the left I am shown the Holy Father John Paul II. He is backed into a corner. Right in front of him, on the floor, is a whole bunch of black snakes. They are all intertwined and writhing furiously. One of the black snakes begins to wrap itself all around the Holy Father. To the right in this same vision St. Michael is wielding a sword that is huge, and with one swift swing, he brings the sword down and slices the pile of snakes in pieces, I say this, but I don't actually see him hit the snakes. He brings down his sword, and then the snakes fall and seem to be in pieces, and this also cuts the one that has wrapped itself around the Holy Father. I then see the Holy Father John Paul II being held in the arms of the Blessed Mother. This vision is not taken away but rather it continues to be revealed one scene after another. Next I am shown a small church. I know it is a church because it has a steeple. It is small. Suddenly the snakes are writhing inside and on top of the church and it seems they are all around the church. Then these snakes seem to rain down on the earth, for I am shown an image of the world and the snakes are seemingly covering the world. Gratefully, this vision ends.

MARY Continues: Now is the appointed time come for man to choose whom he shall serve. My crowning title, indicated by the visions given to you, shows the reality of God's great love and mercy. From the throne of God graces of life flow! I obtain for my children these graces.

By the very finger of God, all creation is subject to His commands; He does what He wills to be. It is not impossible with God to move the sun, moon and stars in the heavens to show that I, Queen of the August Trinity, share in His power and might. Not because I will it so, but because of God's Will, to which I continue to give my fiat.

Now has the appointed time come! My Son's Vicar, John Paul II, will soon rest in the kingdom of my God and yours.

Woe to those, again I say woe, who refuse Mercy!

Because of your (and others) response, because of your faithfulness to prayer, because my words have found a home in your heart, I am able to shorten this Great Trial of Suffering. Great signs and wonders God will continue to do. In your response to prayer, I am able then to receive, like fragrant incense offered and more precious than gold, the prayers, hearts, joys and sufferings of my children.

In the coming days events will happen, some of a divine nature, others because of the pride of man. But it will ALL be to bring the fulfillment of my Triumph and the Eucharistic reign of Jesus. Nature will convulse, and natural disasters will increase. Hearts will change, enemies will be crushed. The Church and the world will be purged and cleansed! Many blessings are given to those who have steadfastly persevered.

Those who once believed and have fallen away will be in sorrow and lament, for they were the rocky soil of the parable. (Matthew 13:5). If you continue to pray, many in darkness will receive the grace of conversion. No greater gift can God receive (from his children) than their fervent prayers for sinners to be converted. Allow yourselves to be as little children to be guided by me.

The world has been given the great gift of Mercy. But I announce to you that it is mercy through the blows of God's justice. This nation again chooses abomination over God's love and laws. You have brought this upon yourselves my children. For you are a hard hearted and a stiff- necked people, desiring wealth and affluence over the love and laws of God, over the value of life given by the Author of Life, whether in the womb, or those in the sunset years of their lives. Do not fear my children! I am your Mother and in my mothers love I will gather all of you who have entered My Heart through your consecration and many more will I gather.

Be steadfast! Allow the strength of Jesus whom you adore and consume to be your strength. Fight this fight valiantly and be witnesses to the Truth! Francis (of Assisi) was once called to restore the Church, and the call is the same today for those religious daughters and consecrated sons of mine! It is within the prayers of the laity that you are being held high in prayer. By grace, you will choose to respond, and not be lost for eternity!

You will behold a great sign!

My love and grace I give to you. I will bless this ministry and bring to fruition my plan. Be at peace my children!

SJ: AMEN!
