Subject: June News & Sacred Heart Novena sign up - Day 1 Monthly Novenas for Our Nations

-

DearFriend,


Greetings from Medjugorje! Since we are on the road, we have just three news items today, plus the prayers for our ongoing monthly novenas. Look for more news and updates in the upcoming weeks.


1) Our pilgrimage and future pilgrimages to Medjugorje;

2) How to participate in the novena in preparation for the consecration of the United States to the Sacred Heart of Jesus

3) The schedule and links for the monthly online novenas for our nation.


Medjugorje Pilgrimage

We have had the remarkable blessing of having made an incredible pilgrimage to this holy place during this past monumental May.


We traveled, met, prayed, laughed, and cried with wonderful members of our Marian family, including Marian Fathers, Marian Helpers, a few staff members, and several DMFA teammates. All the while, all Divine Mercy for America members have been in our hearts and prayers.


Fr. Jason Lewis MIC in the center. Dave & Joan on far right.

This was the first Marian pilgrimage to Medjugorje, where two outstanding Marian priests, Fr. Jason Lewis and Fr. Matt Lamoureux, now reside and serve as the English-speaking chaplains. We have known Fr. Jason and Fr. Matt since they were seminarians, and it's been a joy to see them here embracing their new assignments with zeal and great expectations.


Our Lady of Medjugorje is known as the Queen of Peace. Since the Lord told St. Faustina that "mankind will not have peace until he turns with trust to My mercy," the connection between the message of Divine Mercy and Our Lady's of Medjugorje is undeniable. We believe Fr. Jason and Fr. Matt will do an excellent job making that message more widely known and understood.

You Were in Our Hearts!

Due to Fr. Jason's close relationship with the visionary Marija, we had the unique opportunity to pray with her and to be present during four of her daily visits from Our Lady. We truly felt the Blessed Mother's presence and again recommended to her the intentions of all our friends, family, and Divine Mercy for America team members.

With thanks and blessings!

Monthly Novenas for America

Nine Days of Prayer for Your Nation


1. The Litany of the Saints

Make a novena for your country. This novena will consist of the recitation of the Litany of the Saints.  (Jesus to St. Faustina, Diary passage 59)

Order the Divine Mercy for America Prayer Guide containing the Litany of the Saints, the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, and Diary quotes regarding prayer for native lands.


2. The Chaplet of Divine Mercy

I want all the sisters and wards to say the chaplet which I have taught you. They are to say it for nine days in the chapel in order to appease My Father and to entreat God’s mercy for Poland. (Diary, 714)

3. Divine Mercy Holy Hour

Another time I heard these words: Make a daily hour of adoration for nine days. During this adoration try to unite yourself in prayer with My Mother. Pray with all your heart in union with Mary, and try also during this time to make the Way of the Cross. I was to make this novena for the intention of my Motherland. (Diary, 32, 33)

Pray with Fr. Seraphim Michalenko

If it is not possible to make a holy hour with Jesus exposed in a monstrance, do so before a blessed image of The Divine Mercy. Enter into deep prayer with one of the world's leading authorities on the Divine Mercy message and devotion, Fr. Seraphim Michalenko, MIC, as he delivers profound insights and leads prayers from The Divine Mercy Adoration Companion. Recorded live before the Blessed Sacrament.

4. Holy Communions

On the feast of the Assumption in 1934, the Blessed Virgin Mary told St. Faustina: My daughter, what I demand from you is prayer, prayer, and once again prayer, for the world and especially for your country. For nine days receive Holy Communion in atonement and unite yourself closely to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. During these nine days you will stand before God as an offering; always and everywhere, at all times and places, day or night, whenever you wake up, pray in the spirit. In spirit, one can always remain in prayer. (Diary, 325)
