Pour out the gift of your Holy Spirit upon the Church and the world.

Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love.
Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created. And you shall renew the face of the earth.
O, God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit, did instruct the hearts of the faithful, grant that by the same Holy Spirit we may be truly wise and ever rejoice in His consolations, through Christ Our Lord, Amen.

The Crucifixion of Jesus


Notes of meeting on 11 April 2017


We adore You O Christ and we praise You because by Your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.

The Crucifixion of Jesus

So the soldiers took charge of Jesus. 17 Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha). 18 There they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side and Jesus in the middle.
19 Pilate had a notice prepared and fastened to the cross. It read: jesus of nazareth, the king of the jews. 20 Many of the Jews read this sign, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and the sign was written in Aramaic, Latin and Greek. 21 The chief priests of the Jews protested to Pilate, “Do not write ‘The King of the Jews,’ but that this man claimed to be king of the Jews.”
22 Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
23 When the soldiers crucified Jesus, they took his clothes, dividing them into four shares, one for each of them, with the undergarment remaining. This garment was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom.
24 “Let’s not tear it,” they said to one another. “Let’s decide by lot who will get it.”
This happened that the scripture might be fulfilled that said,
“They divided my clothes among them
    and cast lots for my garment.”
So this is what the soldiers did.
25 Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Jesus saw his mother there, and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to her, “Woman, here is your son,” 27 and to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” From that time on, this disciple took her into his home.

The Death of Jesus

28 Later, knowing that everything had now been finished, and so that Scripture would be fulfilled, Jesus said, “I am thirsty.” 29 A jar of wine vinegar was there, so they soaked a sponge in it, put the sponge on a stalk of the hyssop plant, and lifted it to Jesus’ lips. 30 When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
31 Now it was the day of Preparation, and the next day was to be a special Sabbath. Because the Jewish leaders did not want the bodies left on the crosses during the Sabbath, they asked Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies taken down. 32 The soldiers therefore came and broke the legs of the first man who had been crucified with Jesus, and then those of the other. 33 But when they came to Jesus and found that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. 34 Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus’ side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water. 35 The man who saw it has given testimony, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, and he testifies so that you also may believe. 36 These things happened so that the scripture would be fulfilled: “Not one of his bones will be broken,” 37 and, as another scripture says, “They will look on the one they have pierced.”

The Burial of Jesus

38 Later, Joseph of Arimathea asked Pilate for the body of Jesus. Now Joseph was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly because he feared the Jewish leaders. With Pilate’s permission, he came and took the body away. 39 He was accompanied by Nicodemus, the man who earlier had visited Jesus at night. Nicodemus brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds. 40 Taking Jesus’ body, the two of them wrapped it, with the spices, in strips of linen. This was in accordance with Jewish burial customs. 41 At the place where Jesus was crucified, there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid. 42 Because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and since the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there

I am the Shepherd I AM

Notes of meeting on 4 April 2017

Picture of a walled vineyard, in the middle as Our Lord crucified. The vineyard was full of many workers tending the vines which all seemed to be grated on to the Cross.
From the rampart wall could be seen a destructive army coming close. Outside the wall was a sheep fold and many worker harvesting crops.
Jesus now appeared at the gate of the sheepfold.
Many people could be seen running and Jesus started to sing:
"I am the Shepherd I AM.
Come to Me, come to my arms.
I will soothe you, I will heal you,
I will love you and keep you
close to Me, close to My Heart
and there will be no more tears,
only joy.
Come make haste to peace
and abundance, safety from
the Evil One.
No more will your sins concern
you, for they are nailed
to My Cross.
The Cross of Love, Come to Me,
I am the Shepherd, the Shepherd I AM."

Our Lady cast down her mantle and an army of bright angels came between those running to her Son and the army of destruction. The light was so great the army was blinded and scattered in confusion.
Mary says:
"My children pray for your brothers and sisters and all poor souls that they will hear the voice of my Son Jesus and that they will come to Him. Continue your prayers and sacrifices in love of Jesus and miracles will be seen.
I bless you with my Motherly blessing. Mary"

Come to Him who is Peace, Light and Hope.

Notes of meeting on 28 March 2017

Picture of the world not in darkness but in garish lights and a cacophony of noise, music, television, computers, no peace anywhere.
Our Lady stood at the foot of her Son's Cross praying.

She says: "My children come to the oasis of Peace, My Maternal Heart, come pray with me before the foot of the Cross of Him that continually salvages souls in the world. My Son once again completes the act of redemption, He does this continually to reverse the ills of my adversary.
Come to Him who is Peace, Light and Hope. Pray with me for the souls who are seduced by the false lights of this world that they may know deep in their hearts the joy of the real redemptive presence of Jesus who bears all for such love of you all.
My children arm yourselves with the my Holy Rosary and in praying it continually you will spread the gift of Hope to those who have none, the gift of Joy to those who have no joy, the gift of Peace to those who are in such need of it and the gift of Light in great darkness which my Son bears to all.
I bless you in my Son Jesus' name. Mary."

Psalm 1
1 How blessed is anyone who rejects the advice of the wicked and does not take a stand in the path that sinners tread, nor a seat in company with cynics,
2 but who delights in the law of Yahweh and murmurs his law day and night.
3 Such a one is like a tree planted near streams; it bears fruit in season and its leaves never wither, and every project succeeds.
4 How different the wicked, how different! Just like chaff blown around by the wind
5 the wicked will not stand firm at the Judgement nor sinners in the gathering of the upright.
6 For Yahweh watches over the path of the upright, but the path of the wicked is doomed.

Continue to offer little sacrifices offerings prayer and fasting


Notes of meeting on 21 March 2017

Picture of Our Lady at the wedding feast of Cana.
She says "They have no wine" and then "Do as my son tells you."
The jars were filled and from ordinary water the best and most glorious wine was made.

Our Lady then took a small seed which she planted and watered and while it was small she protected it with her mantle from all storms and winds. At other times she prayed and the sun shone on the seedling warming and nurturing it.
The seedling grew until it became an established tree of many seasons, then after it's last fruiting as the leaves died back upon the cross-section of trunk and boughs could be seen Jesus crucified.

Mary says: " Dear children the tree of your faith is established, continually guard and tend it, for faith in my son Jesus is your most precious gift. The offering of your lives in the living faith of my son Jesus crucified is a most welcome and pain relieving offering to Him who is the Perpetual Sacrifice for mankind. Please continue to offer little sacrifices, offerings, prayer and fasting to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, these comfort my son so much. Do as He does and you will see miraculous conversions within your families and communities and so my adversary's strength will be negated.
I bless you with my Maternal Blessing, Mary."

The seedling represents this group and all others directed by Our Mother.

Scripture related to this Picture - John 2 v 1-11, Luke 6 v 43-45, Luke 13 v 18-19,
