The Statue of Our Lady on Apparition Hill!
I took this picture for all of you!!

 
June 30, 2019

Dear Family of Mary!

When I mentioned the 5 Stones of Our Lady the other day, I got many responses from our shipmates, asking me to explain what the 5 Stones are!!  I was surprised!!  So I am transcribing Fr. Leon’s talk to pilgrims, in which he explains the 5 Stones!!  We will do one stone a day!  Here is the First Stone:


Fr. Leon Periera – English Speaking Chaplain in Medjugorje  (View his talk at https://marytv.tv/fruit-of-medjugorje/   Fruit show 265)

Our Lady said years and years ago, I think back in 1987, “I give you your five stones against your Goliath.”  You remember King David, when he was still a shepherd and he went out to meet Goliath, he had to pick five pebbles from the stream, and with his slingshot, he defeated Goliath.  And Our Lady gave us five stones, she said, against our Goliath, whatever our Goliath is.

Here is my own take on the 5 Stones:
 
#1 – Pray with the heart!  They always say that here in Medjugorje, “Pray with the heart.”  What does that mean?  It means praying in your own words to God like He is your best friend. Praying with the heart means praying with out what the Americans call “B.S.”  It means praying without b—s—t.  Think about how you pray.  Lot’s of people say nice things to God.  They put it in nice language and then they have distractions.  They are distracted by all these things going on in Church or by all the things they have to do when they get home.  Praying with the heart is telling God exactly what is in your heart.  Oh God, don’t let me forget to take the laundry out of the machine, or did i leave the door open and the oven on?? Or why is this gentleman making such a noise? And these things are exactly what we need to tell God because they matter to us and so they matter to Him.  And this is what praying with the heart means.  If you have distractions it means that you are not telling God what is important to you.  You are hiding it from Him.  And what’s the point, He already sees it, He knows it.  But you need to tell Him.

And Our Lady says above all, pray the Rosary.  When we were children, our parents went out one night, and we took out the old photo albums, you know the black and white pictures.  And we were looking at it, my sister and me and my brother, and we were thinking how come we are not in some of these pictures.  You know, like my Grandparent’s wedding, my mother’s baptism…things like that.  And so, we took orange crayons and we drew ourselves in, like stick figures.  So, at my mother’s baptism there is this giant orange version of my sister peering at my mother being baptized.  And me at my parents’ wedding…And we got into a lot of trouble. 
 

But this idea of an orange crayon, drawing yourself into black and white pictures, that is what the Rosary is.  If you think about a Renaissance painting sponsored by the Italian gentry, you have the Birth of Our Lord – angels – shepherds – Our Lady – St. Joseph – and Don Giovanni and his wife, Isabella… Or the Crucifixion of Our Lord, and who is there, Thomas Aquinas, Mary Magdalene, St. Dominic, St. Catherine of Sienna, with her stigmata, and all sorts of things.  That is what the Rosary is. It is taking ourselves and inserting ourselves into the Mysteries of Christ.  Because the mysteries of Christ must come with power into my life, now and today.

So, is the Rosary difficult to pray?  No, it is a big orange crayon, and you are drawing yourself in.  So, you just imagine yourself in these scenes.  You don’t have to come away with some wonderful inspiration.  Just imagine yourself there as the Archangel Gabriel greeting Our Lady.  Say the words, “Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with you.”  And what that means.  Because Gabriel knows it also means that the Lord is with you when you die on the Cross and when your heart is torn in two with the sword piercing it, when you are standing at the foot of the Cross.  He knows that.  And yes, he says that because God told him to.

Or imagine yourself as a shepherd, or an angel or one of the Characters.  Put yourself in the scene.  That’s praying with the heart.

P.S.  I was able to climb Apparition Hill on Saturday with our group!  It was wonderful!  I prayed for all of you and your intentions.  There is peace on that Hill.  Deep peace that comes from Our Lady!

The Sacred Heart of Jesus!

Dear Family of Mary!

Today is the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus!  I just want to send you the great joy of the love of Jesus, so present here in Medjugorje!!  On this feast you can feel Jesus’ love just flowing upon us all.

During Hour of Mercy I discovered a beautiful prayer that St. Faustina wrote in her Diary to Jesus Sacred Heart.  Of all people, she understands the Sacred Heart!!!

Saint Faustina wrote:

O Jesus, eternal Truth, our Life, I call upon You and I beg Your mercy for poor sinners.

O sweetest Heart of my Lord, full of pity and unfathomable mercy, I plead withYou for poor sinners.

O Most Sacred Heart, Fount of Mercy from which gush forth rays of inconceivable graces upon the entire human race, I beg of You light for poor sinners.

O Jesus, be mindful of Your own bitter Passion and do not permit the loss of souls redeemed at so dear a price of Your most precious Blood.

O Jesus, when I considerthe great price of Your Blood, I rejoice at its immensity, for one drop alone would have been enough for the salvation of all sinners.

Although sin is an abyss of wickedness and ingratitude, the price paid for us can never be equaled.

Therefore, let every soul trust in the Passion of the Lord, and place its hope in His mercy.

God will not deny His mercy to anyone. Heaven and earth may change, but God’s mercy will never be exhausted.

Oh, what immense joy burns in my heart when I contemplate Your incomprehensible goodness, O Jesus!

I desire to bring all sinners to Your feet that they may glorify Your mercy throughout endless ages.  (Diary, 72)

This Heart of Love is beating here in Medjugorje!!  Draw close to Jesus today!!

Our Lady told us:


October 25, 1996 “Dear children! Today I invite you to open yourselves to God the Creator, so that He changes you. Little children, you are dear to me. I love you all and I call you to be closer to me and that your love towards my Immaculate Heart be more fervent. I wish to renew you and lead you with my Heart to the Heart of Jesus, which still today suffers for you and calls you to conversion and renewal. Through you, I wish to renew the world. Comprehend, little children, that you are today the salt of the earth and the light of the world. Little children, I invite you and I love you and in a special way implore: Convert!” Thank you for having responded to my call.”  

 
May we draw closer and closer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus through the Immaculate Heart of Mary!!!  

In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

The reasons women get abortions are not usually rape, incest, the life of the mother, or serious birth defects. Statistically, over 90% of women abort for social or economic reasons.
Our world is infatuated with sex. If we want to teach our children about chastity, we must tell them about the sanctity of their bodies from an early age.
One claim we often hear is that abortion must be legal so that women won’t have to resort to dangerous back-alley abortions. Is this fact or fiction?
Having children is a basic human right. But where massive numbers of Africans have no clean drinking water, the Gates Foundation still pushes contraception.

French Court Orders Death by Starvation for Disabled Patient
NEWS PROVIDED BY
June 28, 2019
 
WASHINGTON, June 28, 2019 /Christian Newswire/ — France’s highest civil court today ruled that Vincent Lambert must die by starvation and dehydration. Vincent was nearly made dead last month, but at the eleventh hour, an appellate court ordered that his food and water be restored. Today’s order appears to be final, as Vincent’s parents have exhausted all of their legal remedies to keep their son alive.

As this goes to press, Vincent is being heavily sedated. Why? Because they know that death by starvation and dehydration is excruciating. Advocates for euthanizing Vincent say they want him to die with “dignity.” But there is nothing dignified about withholding food and water from a disabled person.

“In any other context, killing by starvation and dehydration is considered a crime against humanity,” said Life Legal Executive Director Alexandra Snyder. “Yet in France-as in the United States-we routinely impose this type of torturous death on individuals who are disabled. This has to stop. Disability should not be a death sentence.”

Life Legal regularly intervenes in cases where people are denied life-sustaining care, including the provision of food and water.

Our Lady being processed before the Anniversary Mass!
  (c) Mary TV/ Anthony Zubac 2019

June 28, 2019

Dear Family of Mary!

“Dear children! I am thanking God for each of you. In a special way, little children, thank you for having responded to my call. I am preparing you for the new times that you may be firm in faith and persevering in prayer, so that the Holy Spirit may work through you and renew the face of the earth. I am praying with you for peace which is the most precious gift, even though Satan wants war and hatred. You, little children, be my extended hands and proudly go with God. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (June 25, 2019)


Our Lady has mentioned a new time several times over the years, always with a sense that she has come to get us ready for each new time.  Here are a few of those references.

January 25, 1993 “Dear children! Today I call you to accept and live my messages with seriousness. These days are the days when you need to decide for God, for peace and for the good. May every hatred and jealousy disappear from your life and your thoughts, and may there only dwell love for God and for your neighbor. Thus, and only thus shall you be able to discern the signs of the time. I am with you and I guide you into a new time, a time which God gives you as grace so that you may get to know him more. Thank you for having responded to my call.”


Our Lady told us that the new time she was announcing in 1993 would be a time in which we could get to know God more.  Certainly her presence in Medjugorje has facilitated our getting to know God better and better.  She has taught us to pray with the heart, to adore Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, to read the Sacred Scriptures and to attend daily Mass.  All of these practices draw us close to God and to His love.  We are so blessed to have experienced that new time of grace. 

December 25, 1995 “Dear Children! Today I also rejoice with you and I bring you little Jesus, so that He may bless you. I invite you, dear children, so that your life may be united with Him. Jesus is the King of Peace and only He can give you the peace that you seek. I am with you and I present you to Jesus in a special way, now in this new time in which one should decide for Him. This time is the time of grace. Thank you for having responded to my call.”


Again in 1995 Our Lady announced a new time in which we should decide for God.  She brought us little Jesus, so that He could bless and lead us into a time of grace and joy.  She wanted us to let Jesus lead us into peace!
 

October 25, 2000 “Dear children! Today I desire to open my motherly heart to you and to call you all to pray for my intentions. I desire to renew prayer with you and to call you to fast which I desire to offer to my Son Jesus for the coming of a new time – a time of spring. In this Jubilee year many hearts have opened to me and the Church is being renewed in the Spirit. I rejoice with you and I thank God for this gift; and you, little children, I call to pray, pray, pray – until prayer becomes a joy for you… Thank you for having responded to my call.”


And in 2000, Our Lady invited us into the new time of spring, during the 2000th jubilee year, so that we could be renewed in the Holy Spirit and grow in prayer and joy!

Now in 2019 we are again invited to New Times, times that will be a challenge to us.  Times in which we will need firm faith and persevering prayer in order to be strong and cooperate with the Holy Spirit who is bringing about renewal of the entire earth.  What these days will be like we do not know.  But we have the tools we need now to face those days.  We have the 5 stones, and Our Lady’s prayer program to guide us as we move into these New Times.

It sounds difficult but triumphant.  Perhaps we are drawing closer to the Triumph of her Immaculate Heart!

In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

PS.  I will continue reflections over the next few days, but maybe not every day.  I want to take some time to pray and experience Our Lady on the hills and Jesus in Adoration.  So don’t be worried if you don’t get a reflection every day!!  I am praying for all of you!!  Thank you for responding to Our Lady’s call!!!

GENEVA, SWITZERLAND, JUNE 27, 2019.   Women’s Rights Without Frontiersco-hosted a Panel at the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva, Switzerland, together with the Women’s United Nations Reporting Network.  WRWF President, Reggie Littlejohn, stated, “It was a great honor, and indeed a minor miracle, to co-host this landmark Panel, highly critical of the Chinese government’s record on women’s rights.  China sits on the Human Rights Council in Geneva and has veto power.  I don’t know how our Panel seemed to slip through the cracks!”  The venue was packed, indicating the high level of interest in hearing the truth regarding the abuses against the rights of women and girls perpetrated by the Chinese Communist Party.

Littlejohn’s remarks focused on several ways in which the Chinese government has violated the Beijing Platform for Action, whose 25thanniversary will arrive in 2020. Specifically, Littlejohn focuses on the continuation of the sex-selective abortion of baby girls and forced abortion under the Two-Child Policy, as well as the unimaginable suffering of abandoned, elderly widows in the Chinese countryside.  Her full Address can be found below, and on this link.

Abandoned in China:  Baby Girls and Widows

Address by Reggie Littlejohn, President, Women’s Rights Without Frontiers

United Nations Human Rights Council, Geneva

Palais des Nations, June 25, 2019

Honorable Dignitaries, Ladies and Gentlemen,

            It is an honor to address you concerning one of the greatest women’s rights issues of our day:  the abandonment of baby girls and elderly widows in China – unintended consequences of China’s One Child Policy.

            Next year will mark the 25-year review of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, adopted in 1995 at the United Nations Fourth World Conference on Women.  Since this Platform was adopted in Beijing, the Chinese government should have been a world leader in the advancement of women’s rights articulated in that document.   Instead, Beijing itself has been the most aggressive violator of the Platform that bears its name.  The Chinese government needs to be held accountable for its massive violations of the rights of women and girls, from the day the Beijing Platform was adopted until today.  The Beijing Platform at Paragraph 115 states unequivocally:

115. Acts of violence against women also include forced sterilization and forced abortion, coercive/forced use of contraceptives, female infanticide and prenatal sex selection.

Rather than fighting against these practices, the Chinese Communist Party has systematically implemented them. In so doing, it has committed violence against women in unprecedented proportions.

 

Gendercide

        The Beijing Platform states that “discrimination and violence against girls begin at the earliest stages of life and continue unabated throughout their lives” and characterizes prenatal sex selection is an act of violence against women.  This violence begins with the termination of girl children, followed by a gender imbalance where, in China for example, there are an estimated 37 million more men than women. This imbalance is the driving force behind human trafficking and sexual slavery, not only within China but from the surrounding countries, and from as far away as Africa and the Americas.

         There are an estimated 200 million women and girls missing in the world today, because of sex-selective abortion, abandonment and fatal neglect. That number, 200 million, is greater than all the casualties of all the wars in the 20thCentury. This is the true War Against Women.

        Gendercide continues under China’s Two-Child Policy.  Because of violent son-preference, second daughters are especially vulnerable.

            For example, after the institution of the Two-Child Policy, a woman from Anhui Province was forced by her husband to abort four baby girls.  The couple already had a daughter, and when China shifted from a One Child to a Two Child Policy in January 2016, the husband decided that they should have a second child, and that their second child must be a boy.  In July 2017, the woman diedafter these four abortions in quick succession, trying for a son.

            It is this problem of violent son-preference that we have sought to address through our “Save a Girl” Campaign, which has saved hundreds of baby girls from sex-selective abortion, abandonment or extreme poverty in rural China.  We are the only organization in the world that has boots on the ground in rural China, going to the doors of women, offering them words of encouragement and financial support to empower them to keep their daughters, instead of being pressured to abort or abandon them.

            We recently released a video about our “Save a Girl” Campaign.  It really brings to life the struggles of women in the Chinese countryside to resist pressure to abort or abandon their daughters, and how Women’s Rights Without Frontiers is providing them with a lifeline.

Gendercide in China; “Save a Girl” video (7 mins)

       In China, there are an estimated 37 million more men living than women.  This extreme gender imbalance is driving human trafficking and sexual slavery, within China, from the surrounding countries, and from as far away as Africa and the Americas.

Senior Suicide and Abandoned Widows

            Another unintended consequence of the One-Child (now Two-Child) Policy is its impact on the elderly.

            The One-Child Policy has decimated Chinese family structure.  In rural China, couples would have large families and elders were venerated, so when a couple got old, their extended family would care for them. Now, with no extended family to take care of them and no means to support themselves, many elderly in the Chinese countryside are left destitute.  China’s senior suicide rate has skyrocked 500 percent in the past 20 years.  Elderly rural women are particularly vulnerable.  590 women per day end their lives in China.  In the Chinese countryside, three times the number of women as men end their lives.

            Our unique network inside China is able to reach these elderly widows.  We go to their doors, offer them encouragement and much-needed financial support, through our “Save a Widow” Campaign.

“Save a Widow” in China (7 mins)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5ZDIFFur9A

            We have been saving girls in China for years.  Only recently have we begun to save widows.  We have found that many people want to support our campaign to save girls, and relatively few our campaign to save widows.  Why?

            Some of our widows can hardly walk, some have failing vision. They can barely take care of themselves, much less anyone else.  Their long lives of laboring for their families are over, and now many are abandoned by those for whom they sacrificed so deeply.

            I believe this is the measure of whether we, the international human rights community, have a true commitment to the dignity of every person.  Will we commit precious resources to those whose destiny will not be economic productivity, but death?   Will we sacrifice to help someone whose life has been unimaginably hard, so that when she passes on, at least she will do so knowing that someone, somewhere cares enough about her to make sure she will not die of starvation or suicide?

Forced Abortion

            Another way that China has violated the Beijing Platform is in the area of forced abortion.   Since its inception in 1980, China has boasted that it has prevented 400 million lives through its infamous One Child Policy. Hundreds of millions were prevented through forced abortion, forced sterilization and infanticide. Some of these forced abortions were committed up to the ninth month of pregnancy.  Women died because of the violence of late term forced abortions.

            Women’s Rights Without Frontiers has taken a leading role in exposing the atrocity of forced abortion in China and demanding its end.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=JjtuBcJUsjY

            The two-child policy took effect on January 1, 2016.  Since that time, reports have emerged of continued forced abortion.  It has not stopped this slaughter.  The new rule is that every couple is allowed to have two children.  Therefore, it is still illegal for single women to have babies in China, and third children are still illegal.

            In November 2018, NPR reportedthe forced abortion of the third child of an ethnic Kazakh woman.  She had married and moved to Kazakhstan.  When she crossed the border into China, to cancel her Chinese citizenship, authorities learned that she was pregnant with her third child and forced her to abort it.

            China watchers have stated that China will soon “abandon” the two-child policy, instituting a three-child policy, or perhaps allowing all couples to have as many children as they want.  Watch the language.  Will it say all couples,or all people?  If the new law is only for couples, will single women still be forcibly aborted?

Conclusion

            China’s One Child Policy is the largest and most disastrous social experiment in the history of the world. Through it, the Chinese Communist Party boasts that it has “prevented” 400 million births. This is the hallmark of Communist regimes – the

peacetime killing of their own citizens. Now China faces demographic disaster.  Ironically, the Chinese Communist Party instituted the One Child Policy for economic reasons, but through it, it has written its own economic death sentence.

            With a population of almost 1.4 billion, one fifth of the population of the world lives in China.  One out of every five women lives in China.  The women of the world will not be free until the women of China are free!

Chinese Woman Dies After Four Abortions in a Year Trying for a Boy

https://www.scmp.com/news/china/society/article/2103073/chinese-woman-dies-after-four-abortions-year-trying-boy


Join us in praying to close Missouri’s last
Planned Parenthood abortion mill

The battle has been long. The state of Missouri is hours away from becoming the first state in America since 1974 to have ZERO surgical or medical abortion clinics! ALL has worked with many of the state’s leaders over the last 40 YEARS, building to this moment.

But your prayers are urgently needed! The abortion monster Planned Parenthood is at this moment seeking an emergency stay from the courts to keep its murderous clinic open!

We have had and have seen the most impressive pro-life leadership in the state, including a faithful Catholic community led for many years by Cardinal Raymond Burke, among others.  Among his many victories for the babies and Christ more than 15 years ago, then Archbishop Raymond Burke blazed a trail of truth by saying he would deny pro-abortion Catholic politician John Kerry Holy Communion unless Kerry repented of his support for abortion.   Burke’s action created uproar, indignation and hate among “cowardly” bishops who reviled Burke in public.  But like so many other courageous actions among Missourians including Burke, the seeds of truth were planted.  They started to sprout and beat back evil acts and groups including Planned Parenthood.

Now here we are. In less than 48 hours Missouri will have ZERO abortion clinics. Here are the facts:

  1. Planned Parenthood currently operates eight clinics in the state of Missouri.
  2. Only one of those eight Planned Parenthood clinics—the Reproductive Health Services (RHS) of Planned Parenthood in St. Louis—commits surgical and medical abortions at this time.
  3. RHS is currently the only surgical and medical abortion facility in Missouri.
  4. If RHS has to stop doing abortions as of 5:00 PM this Friday, there will be no other licensed abortion facility in the state.
  5. Missouri will become the first state to have no licensed abortion facility since 1974! Cause to celebrate!
  6. RHS Planned Parenthood will not automatically close. It can stay open and provide the non-abortion services it already provides.
  7. All eight Planned Parenthood offices in the state can stay open but none can perform abortions.

I’ve seen other organizations making false claims about this and wanted to be sure the facts were clear.

Now is the time to pray!! Pray that the courts follow through and that this last Planned Parenthood center of death in Missouri stops killing babies and stops killing them for good!! So, please pray. Join us in offering up daily prayers for this most critical effort—that Missouri becomes the first state in America, since 1974, to not permit surgical or medical abortions!!

The fight, however, goes on. Right now, the executive director of American Life League’s STOPP Planned Parenthood is in California conducting meetings and holding training sessions on how to prevent communities in that state from allowing Planned Parenthood to open three new abortion clinics.

California is the American capital of abortion, and we must work to defeat Planned Parenthood in their stronghold on death.

Please consider a gift today of $65 or more. The battle rages on, and we are turning the tide in favor of life.

Join our fight today! Pray and give, and give generously.

Yours in the Lord Who IS Life,

Judie Brown
