Jesus is here and He says, “I am Jesus, born Incarnate.” Blessed Mother is here and She says: “I am Mary, ever Virgin. Praise be to Jesus.” Maureen sees a large key floating in front of Jesus and Blessed Mother. Jesus: “Child, this key represents your free will. It is the latchkey which opens every Chamber of My Heart. At first the key may turn in the lock with difficulty and entrance to the First Chamber – (which is Holy Love) – may be wrought with obstacles. But when you surrender this difficulty to Me it is removed by the Hand of My Provision.” Jesus then reminded Maureen of a time on a pilgrimage when it was imperative that she open a locked door. When she repeatedly tried to turn the key, it would not open. Then she prayed ‘Mary Protectress of the Faith, come to my aid.' She stood back and the key turned in the lock on its own. “It is when the soul is able to surrender to Me by accepting God's Will in the present moment that I am given the power to act. It is impossible to enter the abode of the United Hearts or to advance in the Chambers of My Heart outside of God's Will. This is because the United Hearts are the embrace of God's Will. The confines of My Heart are enfolded in this Eternal Divine Will. I remind you that God's Will is Holy Love. Therefore, the more your heart resembles Holy Love, the more your heart is absorbed into Our United Hearts. This soul's nourishment is Holy Love. It is Holy Love that allows him to grow and take form.” “The more the soul loses his own wants and will, the more he takes on the Divine Will.” “You will please make this known.” “I am your Jesus, born Incarnate.” “Today I have come to help you see that the most important step in personal holiness lies at the threshold of entry into the First Chamber–the Immaculate Heart of Mary–Holy Love. It is upon this threshold the soul is engaged in the greatest spiritual warfare. It is at the entrance of My Mother's Heart the soul decides to believe or disbelieve in these Messages.” “Some souls lie permanently vanquished at the threshold, giving in to the pride of disbelief. Others see the spiritual benefit they are being offered. They pick up the key to the Chamber of Holy Love which is the title and ejaculatory prayer, ‘Mary, Protectress of the Faith and Refuge of Holy Love, come to my aid.' Thus they are admitted and led deeper into the Chambers of Our United Hearts. Pray for those who arrive at the threshold.” Blessed Mother comes as Protectress of the Faith. She says: “Praise be to Jesus.” “In these times, recognition of My title ‘Protectress of the Faith' has slipped by. But you must courageously enforce the propagation of this title with zeal. I tell you this, for as ‘Protectress of the Faith,' I am able to pierce hearts with St. Michael's Sword and hold these hearts open to receive the truth willingly. This way, hearts will not receive the truth one minute and reject it the next.” “Therefore, when you impart to someone the anointing of St. Michael, also say, ‘Mary, Protectress of the Faith, come to my aid.' This prayer holds sway over many powers of evil, but not over free will.” St. Thomas Aquinas says: “Praise be to Jesus.” “Sit at my feet and listen to me. You have been troubled about the power of St. Michael's anointing and the Shield of Truth. So here I am to help you understand.” “Basically I am here to explain the power of free will. Once St. Michael came to you and said, ‘As much power as God has given me, I am completely helpless in the face of man's free will.' This is still true today. It is man's free will which chooses for himself salvation or damnation. God's grace invites, but God does not and will not force the soul to make righteous choices.” “St. Michael's Shield and his anointing offer the truth, but the soul may, through his free will, choose to reject it. The lies of Satan cannot penetrate the Shield, but the soul with his free will may choose not to accept the truth, but to cling to the lies as he has in the past. St. Michael's Shield is an opportunity of grace. The added petition, ‘Mary, Protectress of the Faith, come to my aid,' extends the window of opportunity to accept the truth.” He smiles. “Now, do you understand? You see, this is why it is so important that consciences be formed in the truth in the very young.” He blesses me and leaves. (Temptation) St. Peter says: “Praise be to Jesus.” “I wish to point out the two great temptations which most often rob the soul of the present moment. They are unforgiveness and guilt. Both of these temptations plunge the soul into the past. Both of these form great barriers between the human heart and the heart of God.” “Unforgiveness bears ill feelings towards another which are fanned by the flames of pride. Guilt is unforgiveness of self, a self-love which cannot forgive the errors the soul made in the past. Both stem from pride.” “Whenever you feel the temptation of unforgiveness, either of self or another, once again flee to the Immaculata by saying, ‘Mary, Protectress of the Faith and Refuge of Holy Love, come to my aid'.” “Satan will flee!” (Temptation) St. Peter says: “Praise be to Jesus.” “Today I am inviting every soul to realize that temptation is Satan's invitation to sin. As such, it behooves each soul to recognize what form Satan uses as this invitation. If he does not attempt to identify Satan's invitations, he is taken unawares and is most likely to trip and fall into sin.” “Satan is the master of disguise and the father of lies. His intellect is far above any human intellect. Therefore, you as a mere human, must constantly place yourself in the Heart of the Immaculata by saying,'Mary, Protectress of the Faith and Refuge of Holy Love, come to my aid'.” Mary, Protectress of the Faith comes and says: “Praise be to Jesus.” “I have come to tell you why My Title, ‘Protectress of the Faith', is even more important today than it was decades ago when I asked for it. These days, people have made a false god of free will choices. Anything they want is rationalized into legitimacy. Every type of pleasure becomes a need. Social media has made shipwreck of a conscientious sacramental life. Leaders are more interested in being accepted than in leading. Therefore, people are not concerned about sin or feel responsible for their own salvation. All of this bears witness to empty Churches, closed Churches and schools, and disrespect for the sacraments.” “Being that this is true today, who will have faith when even more confusion comes in the future? My children need to fly to My Protection more than ever as a cloud of division has settled upon the Church! I will not fail you in your hour of need. While many will only believe what is easiest to believe, I will guide you according to Tradition if you ask Me. I will not allow you to be dashed against the rocks of controversy. With a gentle, loving touch, I will guide your soul into the safe harbor of Truth.” “In all your confusion and doubts, speak my name, Mary, Protectress of the Faith. I will fly to your aid.” Read: 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12, 15 * Prelude to the Second Coming of Christ * -Scripture verses asked to be read by Mary, Protectress of the Faith.
-Synopsis of Scripture provided by spiritual advisor. Blessed Mother says: “Praise be to Jesus.” “Dear children, you know from experience that if you venture outside in bitter cold weather and any part of you is left unprotected such as fingers or your nose, you run the risk of frostbite. The spiritual climate in the world today is like the bitter cold. You must cover yourself with prayer. If you have any fear in your heart, ask the angels to surround you and to protect you. If your faith is challenged, ask for My Protection as Mary, Protectress the Faith. I will come immediately to your aid. If you lack trust, ask Me to increase the love in your heart. If you are uncertain as to a course of some action, ask the Holy Spirit for Wisdom.” “You must never run the risk of going out into the spiritually cold world unprotected, where danger is all around you. The enemy of your salvation sees clearly his every inroad to your well-being. When you begin to lose the peace in your heart, understand that this is the first sign of Satan's frostbite. It is then you should cover yourself even more with prayer.” Our Lady comes as Mary, Refuge of Holy Love. She says: “Praise be to Jesus.” “Today, with the weather so extreme* and your health so frail, you will stay inside – protected from the elements, My messenger. I use this occasion to draw attention to the frail spiritual state of the heart of the world. I come to invite all people and all nations into the shelter of My Immaculate Heart – Refuge of Holy Love. Never before has My Call been so urgent. The heart of the world has never before been so vulnerable and in need of My Motherly protection.” “The world has been made smaller due to modern communications and modes of transportation. Therefore, it is easier for evil to spread, for sadly, these advances have been used by Satan. The shelter of My Heart is a protection against the elements of evil. Herein, I will protect your faith and help you to determine good from evil. Satan's confusion and compromise cannot penetrate the inner confines of My Heart.” “If you but say, ‘Protectress of the Faith, come to my aid', I will envelop your heart in My Own Heart and protect you.” “Dear children, you must be aware of the spiritual dangers of these times or your heart will succumb to error. You can see the dangers in the severe weather of the day. Look, as well, at the imminent spiritual dangers all around you. You cannot go outside today without the protection of warm clothing. You cannot survive spiritually without the protection of My Heart.” *1 foot of snow; -5 below wind chill Mary, Refuge of Holy Love says: “Praise be to Jesus.” “Dear children, meet the challenge of the day by clinging tenaciously to your faith. Do not be swayed by popular opinion or influenced by title or authority to compromise the Truths of your faith. Prize the State of Grace that Jesus calls you to be in from moment-to-moment. It is only in this state of grace that you can receive My Jesus, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. If you do not share in the Catholic Faith, I invite you to consider the grace of such a deep bond with Jesus that He offers through the Eucharist to those who are Catholic.” “Remember, I come for all people and all nations with the Truth. I never change the Truth to please people. Nor do I change Doctrines so that people can be united. Such unions may be attractive on the outside, but in reality they are unions of evil. Jesus sends Me to encourage your loyalty to the Faith despite the compromise of Truth that is now being encouraged. I will stand guard over your heart and your faith if you invoke Me.”* * Per Message dated February 2, 2015: “If you but say, ‘Protectress of the Faith, come to my aid', I will envelop your heart in My Own Heart and protect you.” Mary, Refuge of Holy Love says: “Praise be to Jesus.” “At the realization of the establishment of the New Jerusalem upon earth, all souls will embrace the True Faith. It will be an intense faith as though each soul was present at the Transfiguration. Until such time as this occurs, you must realize that the faith of each soul is a target of Satan. This is why I call upon you to invoke My assistance as the Protectress of your Faith.” * “These are tenuous times and require much caution. Safeguard your faith and your hearts by seeking My assistance. I am always near and ready to help you.” * Per Message dated February 2, 2015: “If you but say, ‘Protectress of the Faith, come to my aid', I will envelop your heart in My Own Heart and protect you.” Mary, Refuge of Holy Love says: “Praise be to Jesus.” “The time is coming, and for some it is already here, when those faithful to the Tradition of Faith will be mocked and derided. I have come to offer you the Refuge of My Immaculate Heart which is accessible through the ejaculation ‘Mary, Protectress of the Faith, come to my aid.” “Many important in the eyes of man will openly oppose you and discourage prayer here at this site* as they already have. You must be steadfast and stand for the Tradition of Faith which is fast disappearing. Confusion and ambiguity in leadership serves to weaken staunch belief and compromise the Truth. This is never of God. It is wrong to compromise the Tradition of Faith to appeal to man. Leaders – no matter who – are accountable to God – not man. Title and authority in the world do not change the pretense of Truth into the Truth.” “Pay close heed to My words to you today.” * The apparition site of Maranatha Spring and Shrine. Read 2 Timothy 1:13-14+ Synopsis: Hold firm to the doctrines in the Tradition of Faith as taught by Jesus Christ. Through the Holy Spirit, guard the Deposit of Faith. Follow the pattern of the sound words which you have heard from me, in the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus; guard the Truth that has been entrusted to you by the Holy Spirit who dwells within us. Read 2 Timothy 4:1-5+ Synopsis: With all urgency, preach the Truth of the doctrines of the faith in season or out of season – reproving, entreating, and rebuking with all patience by sound teaching, for there will come a time when not all will accept sound doctrines, but will follow their own desires by turning away from the Truth and accepting errant teachings and doctrines. I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus who is to judge the living and the dead, and by His appearing and His Kingdom: preach the Word, be urgent in season and out of season, convince, rebuke, and exhort, be unfailing in patience and in teaching. For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own likings, and will turn away from listening to the Truth and wander into myths. As for you, always be steady, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil your ministry. +-Scripture verses asked to be read by Mary, Refuge of Holy Love.

-Synopsis of Scripture provided by Spiritual Advisor. Mary, Refuge of Holy Love says: “Praise be to Jesus.” “Today, the weather in your area is unaccommodating to outside activity.* You must plan your day in a way which does not take you into the dangerous cold. In the spiritual world, I invite you to see, it is often the same. The soul is exposed to much danger through exposure to evil elements and often is not aware of it. In the snowy weather, you take extra precautions by wearing warmer clothing. When the soul is exposed to evil – which is every day – he must take extra precautions as well. A sacramental life is a protection, as well as many well-said rosaries. Pray to recognize evil so that you can avoid it. Pray for My Protection with the short prayer – ‘Mary, Protectress of the Faith come to my aid.'” “The inclement weather here will pass quickly and you will welcome a new springtime. The dangers of evil will be ever present in this world, however. Be aware. The season for evil is always present.” * Much snow, extreme cold and strong winds. Read Ecclesiastes 3:1-8+ For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
a time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to break down, and a time to build up;
a time to weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
a time to seek, and a time to lose;
a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
a time to rend, and a time to sew;
a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
a time to love, and a time to hate;
a time for war, and a time for peace. +-Scripture verses asked to be read by Mary, Refuge of Holy Love.
-Scripture taken from the Ignatius Bible. Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says: “Children, allow your faith to carry you through every difficulty. I desire to instill in your hearts deep faith, the benefits of which are far-reaching. It is through your deepening faith, you can hope and trust. Faith gives you courage to persevere amidst every trial.” “Natural disasters are only permitted by Me to show the world their helplessness apart from Me. I mourn with My Son and His Holy Mother* the loss of life – the loss of property – the loss of souls. My hope is that man will turn to Me in the midst of every trial – realize his weakness and dependency upon Me and thus turn tragedy to good.” “It is hard to comprehend these things apart from a faith-filled heart. I sent the Protectress of the Faith** into the world for a strengthening of faith in an age which so rapidly abandoned the Truths of the Faith. Call upon Her now and during every difficulty. She will rapidly come to your aid.”*** * Blessed Virgin Mary.

Children, allow Me complete authority over your hearts in every present moment. Do not give your hearts over to the past or to the future. Believe in present-moment grace. During these times when apostasy has taken over reason and has become popular, pray throughout the day to Our Lady Protectress of the Faith. She will swiftly come to your aid and keep you on track.”* “During these evil times, you must ask for the wisdom to see the ways Satan is attacking you. Many times his plots are so intricate, you cannot conceive of such evil. People in high places – places of authority – fail Me, as they believe more in themselves than in Me. No good is accomplished outside of My Will. My Will is always Holy Love.” “Treat the present moment always as a harbinger of grace. Every situation can change through faith-filled prayer.

learn, O judges of the ends of the earth. Give ear, you that rule over multitudes,
and boast of many nations. For your dominion was given you from the Lord,
and your sovereignty from the Most High,
who will search out your works and inquire into your plans. Because as servants of his kingdom you did not rule rightly,
nor keep the law,
nor walk according to the purpose of God, he will come upon you terribly and swiftly,
because severe judgment falls on those in high places. For the lowliest man may be pardoned in mercy,
but mighty men will be mightily tested. For the Lord of all will not stand in awe of any one,
nor show deference to greatness;
because he himself made both small and great,
and he takes thought for all alike. But a strict inquiry is in store for the mighty. To you then, O monarchs, my words are directed,
that you may learn wisdom and not transgress. For they will be made holy who observe holy things in holiness,
and those who have been taught them will find a defense. Therefore set your desire on my words;
long for them, and you will be instructed. A multitude of wise men is the salvation of the world,
and a sensible king is the stability of his people. + Scripture verses asked to be read by God the Father. (Please note: all Scripture given by Heaven refers to the Bible used by the visionary.

(Please note: all Scripture given by Heaven refers to the Bible used by the visionary. Ignatius Press – Holy Bible – Revised Standard Version – Second Catholic Edition.) The Blessed Virgin Mary says: “Praise be to Jesus.” “Dear children, many years ago, I came to this Messenger* requesting the title ‘Protectress of the Faith'. My request was denied** and maligned by those who refused to recognize the great crisis of Faith that was beginning and would become commonplace throughout the Church. Now, in these present times, the true Faith is only held in the hearts of a dwindling Remnant Faithful. What was regarded as unnecessary by the powers that be so many years ago, has proven to be a grace-filled weapon in the battle to guard and protect the Deposit of Faith in hearts and in the Church itself. This title – Protectress of the Faith – has proven to be not just another title, but a shield of great power against apostasy. No one, of any wisdom, could in Truth deny this.” “Therefore, I come today, to reiterate the grave necessity of this title despite disregard for recognition by any authority. I will come to the aid of any who seek My assistance in the face of disbelief or the persecution of liberal thinking. I will protect the gift of Faith God has so generously placed in hearts. I am your shield against unbelievers.” “I will never abandon the Faithful – even unto death. You are My children – I am your Mother. I hold you in My Arms and embrace you in My Heart.
