Our Lady comes as Mary, Refuge of Holy Love. She says: “Praise be Jesus. My daughter, I have come to help you realize your best effort during this week of prayer and fasting. Any sacrifice needs to be offered from a heart of love. This is the foundation which makes it most worthy. Do not offer up anything out of dread, but from motivation of Holy Love.”

“While it is very good and acceptable to fast on bread and water, it is not good to try this if you are ill or if such a fast would threaten your health. The best fast is to fast from your own will. Your will is self love. I have given you these guidelines. Surrender being in the spot light, having your own way, doing as you choose when you choose it. Make yourself little.”

“Let this week be a challenge to you – not a challenge beyond your capabilities, but a challenge which leads you to the fulfillment of your capabilities. Such an effort will bring you My blessing.”
