Appeal to Former Loyalty
Dear Friends,
A reading from Saint Paul’s Letter to the Galatians (4:12-22):
I implore you, brothers, be as I am, because I have also become as you are. You did me no wrong; you know that it was because of a physical illness that I originally preached the gospel to you, and you did not show disdain or contempt because of the trial caused you by my physical condition, but rather you received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus. Where now is that blessedness of yours? Indeed, I can testify to you that, if it had been possible, you would have torn out your eyes and given them to me. So now have I become your enemy by telling you the truth?
They show interest in you, but not in a good way; they want to isolate you, so that you may show interest in them. Now it is good to be shown interest for good reason at all times, and not only when I am with you. My children, for whom I am again in labor until Christ be formed in you! I would like to be with you now and to change my tone, for I am perplexed because of you.
Tell me, you who want to be under the law, do you not listen to the law? For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the freeborn woman.

Today is the day that the Church celebrates the nativity of Our Blessed Mother as the child of Saint Anne and Saint Joachim. Our Blessed Mother is the greatest human being to be born in this world. She was full of grace from her conception and She never sinned while on earth. She gave me September 8th as the Feast day of Our Lady of Prince Edward Island, the Mother of Life. Today I will celebrate this great day.
Below you will find the message of our Blessed Mother given to Father Melvin. She spoke to him these words,
“Always accept Me as your Mother, My dear son Melvin and all My sons and daughters who have such a great love for Me. My parents always wanted to have children, but for many years God did not bless them with any. My father, Joachim, decided to go into the Judean Desert to pray and to ask God to give them a child. He stayed in a cave and one day an angel appeared to him and told him that by next year his wife would have a child. He went home very happy and indeed about a year later, I was born to the joy of My parents.
“I am the only human being who was born without original sin, as I had already been chosen as the Mother of God the Savior. My youth was spent in prayer to our Heavenly Father and I offered Myself totally to Him to do whatever He asked of Me. When the Angel Gabriel came to announce to Me that I would be the Mother of God, I did not refuse but I accepted with all My heart this wonderful gift I was given. I knew I would suffer at times, but many people had been waiting for the coming of the Savior of the world. I was chosen as His Mother to bring Him into the world. He is the one who named Me Mother of you all. I am happy to be Your Heavenly Mother who prays and works for you at all times. I bless you all.”
