Our Lady's Message through Gianna Talone Sullivan
My dear little children, praise be Jesus!
Little ones do not be discouraged with defeats in your life but trust in Jesus and remain steadfast in you faith. I am here to bring you closer to Jesus and He will bring you to the Father.
Do not become disheartened when people scorn you. This is part of the spiritual path to holiness and many times unavoidable. The more you become like Jesus the more the world will scorn you. Do not fear; I am your Mother of Mercy and I will protect you. All who seek refuge in My Immaculate Heart will be safe and filled with a deep inner joy.
Here at this valley of My beloved St. Joseph is the center which My Immaculate Heart invites all children to seek refuge. Look to Jesus, little ones, for strength in your sufferings and rejoice in Him that He has chosen you as one of His blessed. Trust in Jesus with all your heart and respond to Him if He calls you to do His works of mercy. He will not lead you astray. He will lead you to holiness.
It is necessary for all to respond to His call if evil is to be combated. You cannot be afraid. A lack of response is a lack of trust. It is necessary to be disciplined and obedient to His call. You must make an effort if Jesus is to draw you closer to Him.
I love you little children and bless you in His name.
Thank you for responding to My call. AD DEUM.

My dear little children, praise be Jesus!
Little ones pray, pray, pray! Do not cease from praying.
Each day closes in on more chaos and confusion in the world. It is necessary that you all be detached from the possessions of the world. If people continue to walk in the path against the truth of God, the hand of God's justice will pour forth on this world as never before. Demoralizing values and deception cannot continue. Offenses against God must subside if humanity is to be saved from eternal death.
I have told you that God is merciful and loving. I have asked you to return to Him for He awaits you love. How much longer do you think terrible abominations against God can continue before destruction of your world happens through human hands? A vast majority of people in this country alone are not paying attention to Our words and praying daily in gratitude to God as requested. The rest of the world follows suit and there are some countries that are completely agnostic. Wake up children and pay heed to My plea.
Return to God now. Satan and his evil followers are actively seeking the ruin of souls throughout the world. I desire that all My children be saved, happy and safe. Please listen to My words. I point to My Son, Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Word, your Savior!
Pray in your families Every Day! Save the family unit. Receive the Sacraments with reverence. Study His word in the Scriptures. Be loving, merciful and compassionate children. Turn to God for assistance. Ask the angels to assist you daily to do God's will.
Pray to the Holy Spirit for discernment and prudence. God the Father is tender and kind. You cannot go to the Father unless you return to Jesus your Savior. He will take you to the Father.
Do not keep your distance from Him any longer. Time is no longer on your side. Take every opportunity each day to become selfless and follow Jesus through love and mercy. I love you little children. I love you all.
I am your Mother, the Immaculate Conception. I am your Mother of Mercy. Please listen to My plea and return to God.
Thank you for responding to My call. AD DEUM.

Our Lady's Message through Gianna Talone Sullivan
My dear little children, praise be Jesus!
Little ones the marvels of God continue to unfold every day through His merciful love. God loves you all little children. It is because of His love that your souls are purified. This purification can take many forms. To some, passive purgation involving emotions take place and yet to others the soul is suspended awaiting God to uplift it. In all forms the outcome is the purging of the soul in order that the human will be united with the Divine Will.
God will not mislead you little children. His love for you is endless. He will draw you and direct you. He will care for you unconditionally. Give yourself to Him unconditionally. Do not try to understand from a human perspective. The spirit of the soul belongs to Him who is Divine. It is the intellect which attempts to control the human will. Conflict of the two continues until the soul is purged and trusts unconditionally in God's way of love.
The passions of this life are to be purged of unruly affections and desires in order to be united to the Divine Will of God. God cleanses and purifies so that all who desire Him will be free from the chains of worldly possessions. Your heart must be free for God little children.
Hope in Jesus and allow Him to cleanse the temple of your inner self. Do not fear anything. Rejoice in His glory and honor. Have hope in His word and promise. Grieve only over the things which prevent you from being closer to Him.
This world continues to pass away but God remains forever. Be alert that you do not become distanced from His love.
I love you little ones and bless you in His name. Come to Jesus little children.
Thank you for responding to My call. AD DEUM.

Our Lady's Message through Gianna Talone Sullivan
My dear little children, praise be Jesus!
Little ones, God has given you many gifts from heaven. He has blessed you with the mystery of His love. He awaits your love. Come to Him like a little child without concern for the future but content being led wherever He takes you in the present moment.
A little child is totally dependent on his parent and is happy simply being with his loved one. It needs to be the same for all of you little ones. Be content where God leads you and simply be happy to be in His presence.
There is much work that needs to be accomplished in My army of love. The battle continues to build in the heavens and soon the forces of evil will afflict the world. Build up your forces by putting on your armor of love, perseverance and patience. Pray you will be able to endure what is to come. Pray for all people in the spirit of love and unity. Pray you will be a source of God's merciful love at all costs.
It is necessary to be compassionate even if people do not express compassion towards you. Focus on Jesus little ones. Live for Jesus, in Jesus and with Jesus.
I bless you in His name. Thank you for responding to My call. AD DEUM.

Our Lady's Message through Gianna Talone Sullivan
My dear little children, praise be Jesus!
Little ones, God's love is endless and He is merciful. I do not desire you to be fearful children. God wants you all to be filled with joy and to be carefree children in His love.
There is too much emphasis placed on futuristic events. Do not be consumed with events to unfold in the future. Focus on God and trust in Him. Be confident in His love. At all times give glory and honor to God. All your works, actions, and thoughts must be for the glory of God. If you focus on messages that instill fear you cannot focus on God's mercy and love.
I have said that time is no longer on your side. This is true because of the continuous acts against God's mercy. This, however, is not to instill fear.
I have said these words in order for you, little children, to begin now to allow God to mold you into His goodness through a conscious act on your part. These words were not spoken to frighten you or for you to purchase items for safety or survival. Look to God and pray. He is your safe refuge. Receive the sacraments and have fidelity to Him. You must make a sincere effort to change, to be loving, to be like Him.
I love you little ones. Jesus loves you. The covenant of the two hearts is always with you.
I bless you in the name of Jesus. Peace. Thank you for responding to My call. AD DEUM.
(Our Lady wanted everyone to know that as She speaks privately to me (Gianna) She also addresses the needs of everyone's soul and speaks to them even though they may not hear Her.)

Our Lady's Message through Gianna Talone Sullivan
My dear little children, praise be Jesus!
I have left the beauty of heaven where eye has not seen and have spoken to you for a long time of God's love and mercy. There are many of God's children who are not listening to My Son's plea of love. What will happen when My Son will not permit Me to come any longer to speak to you? What will happen when the cup is full?
You, little children, are invited to join me in prayer for all God's distracted children. We must continue to pray for all people to return to God. This is your apostolic calling.
God is good, little ones, and will not harm anyone. He is merciful, loving and kind. He knows what is best for your soul. Do not blame God for the actions of others against you. He loves you. Remember that good will come out of everything for those who love and trust in Him. God will never abandon you. He despises sin but loves the sinner. Always remember how merciful and good He is.
I am pointing out for you the way to My Son. It is My desire that all people return to God, not a select few. All people are loved by Him. He is your creator. It is My desire that all children put into practice My words. I love you, little children, and bless you in the name of My Son, your Savior. Peace to you.
Thank you for responding to My call. AD DEUM.
As is customary, there was no message given on the feast day of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Our Lady's Message through Gianna Talone Sullivan
My dear little children, praise be Jesus! It is with joy, little ones, that I am able to come to you this evening.
Look to God, your heavenly Father, in praise of His love and mercy. Praise Him for His glory, which He desires to share with you.
These days are filled with despair and confusion for so many people. Little ones, there is no more opportune time than the present to pray for all people. Pray for the sick, the lonely, the persecuted and the forgotten. There are so many people in need of genuine love.
In times of difficulty surrender your hearts to Jesus. Do not surrender prayer. Pray more fervently. Do not pull back your reign of control but give Jesus your control. Allow Him to do works of mercy in your life and in every situation.
Many give themselves to My Son and then when they do not see the results they desire, pull the reigns of control out of fear. Surrender, little ones, and trust in Jesus. He will not harm you. His love is unconditional. The amount of power you hold in your hearts for love of Jesus is directly proportional to the level of confidence and trust you place in His mercy.
Be at peace, little ones, and do not fear. Love God with all your hearts and respond to His call of mercy. I bless you in His name.
Thank you for responding to My call. AD DEUM.
Note: This was the last Thursday prayer meeting and Mass in Emmitsburg celebrated by Fr. Al Pehrsson, C.M. Our Lady sent Gianna and Mike Sullivan to Father Al after an apparition. This took place at the Crucifixion scene in the Grotto of Lourdes on top of Mount St Mary's near Emmittsburg. Father Al has been instrumental in bringing the gift Our Lady wished to give her children to the people of Maryland, Pennsylvania, and beyond. He is an extremely gifted homilist, a holy priest, and a true and faithful shepherd. He will be deeply missed by those who know him.

Our Lady's Message through Gianna Talone Sullivan
My dear little children, praise be Jesus!
Little ones, do not hesitate even for one instant to unite yourself to the Divine will of your creator through the Fiat of My Son. Never lose sight of Jesus. Abandon yourself to His will.
I recommend that in all you do, enclose everything in the Eternal Fiat. This is the way you will gain strength in your sufferings and also be inseparable from Me and My Son. This is the way you are united to your creator and receive joy.
How much I love you, little children. I call your prayers to Mine so they will be of singular power to do the Divine Will. I call your acts to Mine so they too may be strengthened by the Divine Will and not lost in the human will.
So many times My Son is forgotten and His Word, which is the carrier of peace, is not listened to. Jesus is the fountain of eternal life. He is a merciful God and desires you to drink of this fountain, the spring of the living water.
I bless you, little children, in the name of Jesus. Peace.
Thank you for responding to My call. AD DEUM.

My dear little children, praise be Jesus!
I am so pleased to be able to teach you little children how the Kingdom of God's Will can be extended in all situations. In your pains, sorrows and humiliations present to you, never lose heart. Allow Jesus to take His royal place in your sufferings so that you will be able to gain the infinite value of redemption in which you can free humanity from its slavery.
If you always do God's Will and not yours, I, your Mother of Joy and Mercy, will deposit all the treasures of My Son in you so His Divine life may grow in you. If you knew the extent of His pain and suffocation for all those souls who choose their designs of life over the designs of the Divine Will, you would prostrate your soul before the throne of God in supplication for all the offenses against My Son. You must know, children, that whatever does not begin with Jesus, no matter how beautiful the work may seem, can never please Me because it is void of the life of My Son.
Listen to your Mother. In your encounters seek the Kingdom of God. It is your way to freedom.
I bless you little children in the name of Jesus, My Son. Peace to you.
Thank you for responding to My call. AD DEUM.

Our Lady's Message through Gianna Talone Sullivan
My dear little children, praise be Jesus!
Little children, I am the Mother of God. I am full of grace. Ponder My words, "My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord for He has looked with favor on His lowly servant."
The divine favor is His grace. God desires to fill you, little children, with His grace. Without the grace of My Son your works would be fruitless. Grace strengthens your faith, which is your salvation. Salvation does not stem from your own works but through the immeasurable riches of His grace.
Grace gives joy. It is also the main source of your courage. You are who you are through the grace of God. My Son is faithful in bestowing His grace. He is merciful and gracious. He is abounding in steadfast love. Allow His grace to fill your soul as water fills an ocean. In His merciful kindness, tremendous virtues will blossom and flourish through His grace.
Therefore be attentive little children. Receive His grace. Do not allow His grace to fall on deaf ears through a lack of cooperation. Nourish His grace so it will produce fruits. Responding to His grace will lead you to repentance.
I bless you little children in the name of Jesus, your Savior. Peace.
Thank you for responding to My call. AD DEUM.

Our Lady's Message through Gianna Talone Sullivan
My dear little children, praise be Jesus!
Little ones, trust in the power and endless richness of God's word, which goes well beyond exegetical schemes. Do not lose hope. In all your endeavors hope in silence for the virtue of love to unfold. Cooperate with God's grace in obedience, faith, hope and charity. I am your guide to hope in the Paschal mystery.
It is your hope in the resurrection that you will understand the meaning of suffering and death. Hope is an infused Grace which you need to live. Do not look at the events of tomorrow, but focus on today. Focus on this moment, and praise God for His wondrous works of love. Little children, hope in Jesus beyond all hope.
What hope is there in this life for a person without God? Death becomes a limit which puts an end to a mediocre life. But the person who hopes in My Son is receptive to His goodness and love which He gives. He will protect you and teach you His way to holiness. Deep faith and hope are necessary to understand what is beyond the understanding of ordinary people.
I love you, little children and I take your petitions to My Son who dissipates all uneasiness and burdens by the light of His divine love.
Peace. Thank you for responding to My call. AD DEUM.
