The Mercy of Jesus
Dear Friends,
Jesus withdrew toward the sea with his disciples. A large number of people followed from Galilee and from Judea. Hearing what he was doing, a large number of people came to him also from Jerusalem, from Idumea, from beyond the Jordan, and from the neighborhood of Tyre and Sidon. He told his disciples to have a boat ready for him because of the crowd, so that they would not crush him. He had cured many and, as a result, those who had diseases were pressing upon him to touch him. And whenever unclean spirits saw him they would fall down before him and shout, “You are the Son of God.” He warned them sternly not to make him known. (Passage from the Gospel of St. Mark 3:7-12)
I had a Healing Mass on Friday night at the Little Shrine of Our Lady of Prince Edward Island and one man told me his story. He had been at a Healing Mass at the Little Shrine in the past. At that time he used to walk with a cane but after he got home from the Healing Mass, he stopped using his cane and now he walks ok. This man was not a Catholic but in December 2010 he was received in the Catholic Church. What a wonderful grace he received.
I celebrated Holy Mass yesterday morning at the Little Shrine in honor of Our Blessed Mother and a good group attended. Many entered names in the Book of Remembrance for their families and friends. You know that it only costs $15.00 to enter a person for two Masses a week for a whole year. The next message will be on Tuesday, October 19.
Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words,
“I have great compassion on all My followers especially you, My brother Melvin, and all My brothers and sisters living in the world. When you are sick call upon Me for help or go to a healing priest and you will be helped by Me. When I was living in the world I healed many people from all kinds of sicknesses. I gave the blind sight and the deaf hearing; I healed those who could not walk and those who could not speak I opened their mouths to speak. I am still doing the same thing today. Today I work through those I have given the gift of healing. Make use of them and My power will touch you. I love you all.”
