Let nothing disturb you. I love you deeply… a great deal more than you can imagine... Be silent; offer all suffering to Jesus for the sake of love and gratitude... Hurry with the book which shall be called ‘Springs of Mercy’.” [SM-92 ¶5] And of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, She taught Catalina to pray: “Heart of Jesus, spring of grace, light and holiness, pour into my heart those gifts that You possess in abundance…” [SM-107 ¶5] MESSAGES 5 And of the seven Sacraments She said: “Jesus has made springs of grace for your brothers to drink of these fountains of Living Waters… the Sacraments…” [SM-36 ¶6] Jesus told Catalina: “My child, come to Me; I invite you to take refuge in My heart… I want you to be enriched with the waters from this “Spring of Mercy” which continuously runs and never dries up.” [SM-1 ¶1&3] “For this, some must prepare to give testimony of what it represents in your life this becoming immersed, that surrendering to new “springs” each time when receiving My Body and Blood worthily…” [SM-50 ¶5] “And do you think you would have loved Me in the same way and with the same intensity as you love Me today? You had to dig dry, arid and cracked wells in order to possess this “Spring of living waters” from which you drink today desiring ever more for the thirst of your soul…” [SM-70 ¶5] 6 SPRINGS OF MERCY Table of Contents Prologue .......................................................................................................... 12 Acknowledgements ....................................................................................... 14 The Messages ................................................................................................. 15 I Invite You to Take Refuge in My Heart ................................................ 15 The First Locution of the Blessed Mother to Catalina: Do Not Fear .... 16 My Daughter, Here I Am ........................................................................... 17 Let Nothing Remove You from This Path ............................................... 20 The First Locution of Jesus to Catalina: Pray the Our Father .............. 20 Peace and Light of the Dying .................................................................... 21 Little Daughter, I Came to Give You a Hug ........................................... 22 Love of My Sorrows ................................................................................... 22 How Shrewd Is Satan ................................................................................. 23 Know the Bible ............................................................................................ 24 Conversion of Heart ................................................................................... 24 It Pleases Me When You Are Humble ..................................................... 25 Be Simple ..................................................................................................... 26 … And with Your Spirit ............................................................................. 26 Your Return Makes My Heart Smile ........................................................ 27 Conversion ................................................................................................... 28 All of You Are Completely Mine .............................................................. 30 The Enemy ................................................................................................... 31 I Protect You ............................................................................................... 32 Praise and Pray to the Father .................................................................... 33 I Forgive the Foolishness of My Children Who Play at Being Gods ... 35 Prayer ........................................................................................................... 35 Humility and Patience ............................................................................... 36 I Am Here .................................................................................................... 37 I Cradle You on My Lap ............................................................................ 37 Offer the Rosary .......................................................................................... 38 The Time of the Harvest Draws Near: Fast - Abstain ............................ 39 Being the Axis of the Universe, I Marginalized Myself ......................... 41 Search for the Answer in My Loving Heart ............................................ 43 Leave Your Health in My Hands .............................................................. 44 MESSAGES 7 How Do You Want to Teach Your Children if You Do Not Give the Example?

Saint Antony of Padua was the patron of the community. I was carrying the beautiful name of Sr Mary of Saint Michael Archangel. Saint Anne said to me: "you must come out of the convent, you have a mission to fulfill in the world, to save souls who are lost everywhere on Earth. You must go in the world to speak to souls." After a while, I was coming out of the convent (Seminary of Chicoutimi), March 1, 1951, with the permission of the Bishop who has signed the dispensation of my vows. I let myself in the infinite love of the Father. I have trusted this voice. What marvel to do the Will of the Lord. Alleluia! May 7, 1972 First Apparition This is my mother Helene who came to cosole me because I was paralyzed. This was the birthday of my father David Brassard. It is around 3:00 AM when I saw my mother sitting in a armchair in the TV room. I have spoken to her 20 minutes. She said to me: ' Ask me three graces and I will obtain them from God.» I have told her that I wanted to have the healing of my facial paralysis, of the trigeminal nerve. She said to me: "In one month day for day, you will be healed." All has been realized on June 7, 1972 in the Church St-Edouard of La Baie City.

EDITORIAL NOTE he whole barracks was intoxicated with the victory of war. The lights of colorful lanterns made the large tent seem like an island of light. Beautiful girls were dancing with T tambourines. Enthusiastic songs were heard everywhere. Amidst the loud cheers and guffaws of the soldiers, Emperor Alexander and his close friends were enjoying victory dances around barrels of alcohol. The Emperor, intoxicated, was praising himself by talking about his victories and achievements. As Alexander continued the self-praise, his bosom friend, Cleetus, sitting near him, fi nally said, “About the victory, the Emperor doesn’t have much to claim.” On hearing this, Alexander said angrily, “Cleetus, you are my close friend, but you should be careful while speaking to me!” Cleetus, who was equally intoxicated, ignored the Emperor’s words, and continued, “On account of these victories, the Emperor does not have any great claim. Your father, King Philip, raised and trained you in the best possible way and that has made you able to achieve these victories.

  • This New Light Which Now I See…
    This new light which now I see… From the writings of Saint Paul of the Cross John Baptist Gorresio and John Mary Cioni 1 Foreword It is true that it is only in the last 30 years or so that the spirituality of Saint Paul of the Cross and the history of the Passionist Congregation which he founded has become available to the Passionist religious of the English-speaking world, thanks to linguistically gifted persons within the Congregation who were generous to devote their time and talents to the work of translation. All of the written documents (mainly letters) of St Paul of the Cross and the testimonies written by his contemporaries have been in the Italian language. These were a little more easily translated into the major European languages of French and Spanish. However it was a long time coming in English. Ever since translations of these beautiful documents have become available in English, a new light dawned in the minds and hearts of many Passionists, particularly in the English- speaking world. There has been a real hunger and thirst amongst these Passionists to want to delve into the character and personality of their spiritual Father, Paul of the Cross, and to be enriched by the spirituality of him who has been described as the greatest mystic of the eighteenth century. The documents contained in this book contributes eminently to this desire and adds to the growing volumes of resources now available to English readers. The slow, tedious and pain-staking work of translation is perhaps easily overlooked by readers when this book is picked up and devoured.

He had just received 7,000 faithful at the Shrine of Pompeii the previous day. He then detoured to Rome to meet us, as we prayed in earnest for Australia. Fr Stefano Gobbi is an old man now, 75 years old. In 1997 he had a massive heart attack and can no longer travel to far-off places like Australia. But he wishes he still could, so when he knew a group of Australian pilgrims was coming to Rome he made a special effort to spend time with us. Fr Gobbi‟s Message for Australia: His message to us was so simple, yet precious and important. He spoke of the big battle which goes on in the world between Mary and her followers and Satan and those who follow him. I recorded his talk to us so let me quote some of it: ”Prayer!! The devil hates it. Through the media, TV, newspapers etc. he fills our minds with many things. Then we talk about what we have seen, heard and read. We talk and we talk and we wear ourselves out and we have no time to pray. This state of affairs affects the faithful, it affects Priests, it affects Religious consecrated to God. Mary, on the other hand, gives us the grace to pray, she give us the desire to pray more.

Various non-Christian writings suggest that female apparitions could be factors in the coming ecumenical unity. Goddess worship has existed throughout history and has a large following in the 21st century. How could the Queen of Heaven have any influence on the millions of Muslims who follow Allah? Those who have studied the Muslim’s holy book, known as the Koran, may be aware of the answer. And what about the New Age book entitled Mary’s Message to the World which contains hundreds of revelations from a manifestation calling herself Mary, which falls in line with both New Age thinking and Eastern religious beliefs.

May more hearts be touched. I encountered He and I when I was around 14 years old. This would have been the mid 70's and an older "Jesus freak" recommended I read it. It had a profound impact on my relationship with the Father and the Son, second only to the Bible itself. It helped me by affirming how personal the relationship was meant to be, that He is always present and available, that no formalism is required to enter into His presence.
