One of my Facebook friends has written us as follows:
“Ivân, one of the Medjugorje seers, received an urgent message from Our Lady. She said that the war in Ukraine will become even more serious and will spread throughout the world. To stop it, ask everyone to respond quickly and pray intensely now, especially the Rosary. Also, every day at 6.30 pm, wherever you are, pray 3 Hail Marys to help Our Lady intercede for peace.”
I replied to our Facebook friend as follows:
“Thank you for this call to prayer. The ROSARY is our peaceful weapon in these days of battle – in spiritual warfare. It isn’t only the war in Ukraine needing to stop. It’s the Divine Wrath over the stench of all our sins. Also, the cries of aborted babies, millions of innocent children, they are calling on heaven to stop the slaughter of their generation. Mary Mother, intercede! I will start right now with a Rosary for your most special intentions, and tomorrow will post something online. Kind regards.”
Have since noticed an item on the web:
A spokesman for the Russian government said they might be willing to talk with Pope Francis, the United States, and France – this new proposal has come from the President of France – to find a solution to the war in Ukraine. It is now nine months since Russia began the invasion of Ukraine, a war that has so far taken the lives of more than 6,000 civilians, including nearly 400 children. Goodness knows how many soldiers, from both sides.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now, and at the hour of our death. Amen
