– 1 – OUR LADY OF THE CROSS The New Jerusalem at Queen of Cemetery

I apologize to the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God. You patiently, with much love and tears worked with us at the foot of the Cross to try and deliver an urgent mes- sage in order to help mankind. I promised to help you and I carelessly left the messages sitting in a pile on my desk for five years.

I apologize to all the people whose souls will be eternally lost because they did not Chicago Tr ib u n e have access to their Heavenly Mother’s call.

I apologize to Christ, My Lord and God. If the Holy Mother did not teach us how good and Merciful You are, I would have run away in despair. Please accept this publi- cation as a gift in reparation for my sins against the .

At the cross her station keeping, Bruised, derided, cursed, defiled, Virgin of all virgins blest! Stood the mournful mother weeping, She beheld her tender child, Listen to my fond request: Close to Jesus to the last; All with bloody scourges rent. Let me share your grief divine.

Through her heart, his sorrow sharing, For the sins of his own nation Let me, to my latest breath, All his bitter anguish bearing Saw him hang in desolation In my body bear the death Now at length the sword had passed. Till his spirit forth he sent. Of your dying Son sublime.

Oh, how sad and sore distressed O dear mother! Fount of love, Wounded with his every wound, Was that mother highly blessed To uch my spirit from above, Steep my soul till it has swooned Of the sole-begotten one! Make my heart with yours accord. In his very blood away.

Christ above in torment hangs, Make me feel as you have felt; Be to me, O Virgin,nigh, She beneath beholds the pangs Make my soul to glow and melt Lest in flames I burn and die, Of her dying, glorious Son. With the love of Christ, my Lord. In this awful judgment day.

Is there one who would not weep Holy mother, pierce me through; Christ, when you shall call me hence, Be your Mother my defense, ’Whelmed in miseries so deep In my heart each wound renew Be your cross my victory. Christ’s dear mother to behold? Of my savior crucified. While my body here decays, Can the human heart refrain Let me share with you his pain, May my soul your goodness praise, From partaking in her pain, Who for all our sins was slain, Safe in your eternity. In that mother’s pain untold? Who for me in torments died. Amen. Alleluia! Let me mournful with you be, Mourning him who mourned for me, All the days that I may live.

By the cross with you to stay, There with you to weep and pray, Is all I ask of you to give.

RESISTING TEMPTATIONS Praise Jesus. Praise Jesus. My children, as long as we live in this world, we cannot be without tribulation and temptation. Hence, it is written in Job: “The life of man upon earth is a temptation.” Therefore, ought everyone to be solicitous about his temptations and to watch in prayer, lest the devil, who never sleeps, but “goeth about seeking whom he may devour” find room to deceive him. No man is so perfect and holy as not to have temptations sometimes. And we cannot be wholly without them.Yet temptations are often very profitable to a man although they be troublesome and grievous for in them a man is humbled and purified. All the saints have passed through dened with suffering for individuals and for save souls. And thus, the teaching of the many tribulations and temptations and nations, and so, you will not be afraid.

My children, Jesus reigns on the Cross revealing Himself as the Shepherd Who reunited the scattered chil- dren of God as the King of the Universe. Therefore, He is worthy to receive power and riches, wisdom strength and honor. Jesus is always alone. Go to His feet at the Cross and pray to Him. He is an all-loving God. He has many favors to grant you. The soul who daily recites my Rosary, all fifteen decades — I will one day before his or her death come to that soul and embrace that soul in my arms. Jesus founded the Catholic Church. There are those who would like to say the Church is invisible and only Christ knows who are the members of His Church. Some deny that there are external signs of membership. If this were so, how could Jesus teach until the end of time? He had to be sure the correct path to Heaven would be handed down to the peoples of all times. Today, there are so many people who claim to have Christ’s message for us, and they are contradicting one another. The first question we must ask our- selves, “Did Jesus organize a Church?” The Jewish religion was tem- porary. It was to bridge the gap between Moses and Christ. Upon it Christ constructed Christianity. He supervised their training per- sonally. He gave them all the necessary powers. “Go therefore and teach..... Baptize.....Whose sins you shall forgive..... Do this in mem- ory of me..... Whatever you shall bind on earth.....” In other words, He gave the Apostles a three-fold office; teaching, ruling and sanc- tifying. He commanded people to hear His Church. He said, “He that hears you, hears Me.” He guaranteed this Church against error. People could justly demand such a guarantee if He insists that they

My children, it is the mystery of salva- tion that we will be able to understand, and see the importance and the mission of the Mother of God, and will be able to perceive the attitude of the Church toward Mary. Holy scripture reveals the plan of God that evolves gradually through the centuries from the cre- ation to the final glorification of the elect. People, in particularly the young, are not satisfied simply because we explained Fatima with the dialogues between the seers and the Virgin Mary.They want to hear about Mary as a person; the historic person, Mary. Christ and Mary are united in the same mystery and work of sal- vation. Jesus Christ is the center of the universe and of history, and everything happens through Him. By His incarnation, death, and Resurrection He saved the world. Offering Himself to the Father and forming men into one body, the “Mystical Body” of which He is the head. It is through divine preference that I, Mary,became the Mother of the Redeemer. God wants to save humanity, and therefore He became man in Mary of Nazareth. It is extremely important to see Mary in the framework of the mystery of salvation. The interior action of the Holy Spirit is urging Christians of our time to make increasing use of the Bible as their basic book of prayer however, knows that it celebrates the central event of human histo- and to draw from it solid counsel and models, Devotion to the ry: The Incarnation of the Divine Word for the redemption of Blessed Virgin, in particular, should derive new strength and sure humanity.In fact, Christmas makes us reflect on one hand, about the value from it.
