#9 - SACRAMENTALS*

"Whosoever dies clothed in this shall not suffer eternal fire." - Our Lady to St. Simon Stock upon giving him the Brown Scapular on July 16, 1251

*Those rites, actions and things which the Church uses in imitation of the Sacraments in order to obtain through her intercession certain effects, particularly of spiritual nature. If used in accordance with the mind of the Church, sacramentals are the means of receiving actual grace to do good and avoid evil, of protection of soul and body, and the remission of venial sin. Among the sacramentals are prayers, holy water, blessings, the sign of the cross, ashes, medals, the Rosary, candles, vestments, etc.

BAYSIDE MEDAL
"Through this treasure [the medal of Our Lady of the Roses] will flow many graces from Heaven. Have them also blessed by a true loving priest and wear them for the days ahead. For as the crippled will be cured, the blind can see, so shall all be saved who believe and wear this medal!" - Our Lady, February 11, 1971

FRONT AND BACK
"And also, My children, I ask you again to place a crucifix upon your door. Both front and back doors must have a crucifix. I say this to you because there will be carnage within your areas, and this will pass you by if you keep your crucifix upon your doors." - Jesus, June 30, 1984

99%
"Satan has entered upon the world some time ago, as My Mother expressed to you, and he roams now like a ravenous wolf; and if you do not keep your sacramentals about your neck, the chances are ninety-nine percent, My children, that you will fall. If you understand the necessity of the brown Scapular, you will understand also the necessity of keeping yourselves in the world, but not of the world." - Jesus, June 18, 1984

HOLY WATER
"Learn the use every day of holy water throughout your household. Insist even with obstructions, insist that your children always wear a sacramental. One day they will understand that they will repel the demons." - Our Lady, September 13, 1977

SACRED HEART
"My children, I have asked you all to consecrate your homes to the Sacred Heart of My Son for reason. You will need all of the protection available in sacramentals and graces to withstand the onslaught of this evil." - Our Lady, May 13, 1978

REMEMBER
"Remember, keep your sacramentals constantly upon you: your brown Scapular, your St. Benedict medal, the Miraculous Medal, and also the medal of Our Lady of the Roses. You must keep them upon you, with a crucifix. We demand a crucifix because demons, many of the highest ones in the realms of hell, cannot stand the sight of a crucifix." - Jesus, June 18, 1987

RELICS
"Your children must have the statues and the relics as constant reminders of the road they must remain on. The world outside your doors now is a world of Satan." - Jesus, February 1, 1978

ARMOR
"Protect yourselves and those you love with the armor We have given you. Do not succumb, My children, to the fallacies about you, the half-truths and falsehoods. Know that your sacramentals were given for reason. Do not cast them aside! Understand, My children: if satan removes your sacramentals, he has more advantage over you." - Our Lady, March 18, 1975

ENROLL
"Therefore, because so few priests in My Son's Church are willing to intercede with the Scapular, and enthrone those who wish it, it has become necessary to give a Scapular to every child upon earth; and he or she of reasonable age shall go forth and find a kindhearted and true, holy priest to enroll them." - Our Lady, September 14, 1985

ST BENEDICT
"You must use over and over a sacramental of great importance in these days, known to you as the medal of Saint Benedict. You are now in a war of the spirits: it is good against evil; it is the Eternal Father against satan!" - Our Lady, June 9, 1979

PEARLS
"I give you the sacramentals that are necessary for your protection in the days ahead: the Rosary of prayer, beads of prayer to Heaven, pearls of prayer to Heaven; the Scapular of faith to be worn constantly and never removed from your earthly body." - Our Lady, June 18, 1979

COASTLINES
"Yes, My child, in the great Chastisement a ball of fire shall fall into the waters killing all that is living in the seas. And also, unfortunately, because they could not listen and change their ways, many will die also from the flames and also from the waters.
     "Those living along the coastlines, We caution them to keep a sacramental and a crucifix upon their doors, for the angel of death shall not enter your home." - Jesus, July 1, 1985

ST SIMON STOCK
"Now this be it known: that the Scapular cannot keep you from purgatory. I purposely gave this knowledge to Saint Simon Stock, the knowledge of the existence of a sacramental so powerful that a man who would fall fast into hell shall escape, through the mercy of his God, and the existence of a shadow of faith that he may have." - Our Lady, September 14, 1985

FIGHTER
"And you must keep the sacramental, given for these very days from Saint Benedict, upon you. I, My child, have always called him the 'fighter of demons.'" - Our Lady, October 6, 1977

CHILDREN
"Safeguard with your sacramentals, your children. They must not go out of your homes without the protection of a sacramental." - Our Lady, June 4, 1977

PETALS
"I have used the petals of the roses as instruments significant of the graces that I will bestow upon you." - Our Lady, March 24, 1973

SAVED
"Even the greatest of sinner will be converted and saved if he will wear the brown Scapular when he passes over the veil--when he leaves, My child and My children, his body at the moment you call upon earth death." - Our Lady, August 14, 1979

PERFECTION IN CLOTH
"My child, you will watch the Scapulars carefully as they come in. To be of perfection you cannot make a substitution, or you lose the graces, My children. It is a simple cloth, and can be obtained in many nations. And those that do not have the means to make these cloths shall use the only passage known to man-to approach another who can help him or her to obtain this perfection in cloth."** - Our Lady, September 14, 1985

STATUES
"All sacramentals must be worn and kept in the homes. The monuments, statues, must be kept in the homes and the House of God, for they will not then fall during the trial of chastisement. All who keep My monuments in their houses will not be destroyed." - Jesus, March 25, 1973


WINDOW SILL
"You ask Me, My child, what can they do. They [satanists] can do nothing, My child, while there is a crucifix upon your doors. I would suggest also, My child, that you go back to your previous habit and plan to keep a St. Benedict medal on each window sill of your home. A St. Benedict medal, My child; then you will not be tormented at night by their weird chantings that have kept you awake many nights." - Our Lady, November 1, 1985

#8 - BLESSED VIRGIN MARY

"And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the
Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women." - St. Luke 1: 28

---

MOTHER OF GRACE
"My child and My children, I have come to you under many names in the past, but I want you to acknowledge Me as the Mother of Grace. Because that is why I come to you now, My children: to give you the graces necessary to remain upon earth in a state of purity and perseverance, and knowledgeable to the truth that will lead you and keep you on the narrow road to Heaven." - Our Lady, September 14, 1985

NOT AN ORDINARY WOMAN
"My children, I accept in suffering, in patience, and with a consolable heart the abominations against My nature and My divinity in the Father and in the Spirit, but I will not tolerate the abuses to My Mother! You who have cast aside the knowledge of My birth, accepting to degrade My Mother in your hypocrisy and rejection of truth!
      "The Eternal Father chose My Mother before Her beginning on earth to be the receptacle for My entrance onto your earth.  My Mother was conceived without sin; She knew not the stigma of sin, the original sin of mankind from the first parents. She was destined from the beginning of time, in the knowledge of the Eternal Father, to be a spotless receptacle for My entrance into your world.
      "My Mother is not and was not an ordinary woman. My Mother was ever-virgin. My Mother bore Me forth without pain and knowledge of My entrance until the sound of the babe awakened Her and Her spouse, Her pure spouse, Joseph. My Mother knew not man before or after My birth. My Mother, as was written in the Book of old, was ever-virgin. How dare you degrade Her, O man of little faith!" - Jesus, May 14, 1977

CO-REDEMPTRIX
"You will not stop the words of My Mother. She is your Co-Redemptrix, and as such, it is She Who has been given the mission to bring you back onto the road to the Kingdom. Without Her you will be lost." - Jesus, August 5, 1974

PROTECTRESS
"I come to you as a Protectress of peace." - Our Lady, October 2, 1990

SHIELD
"I ask you for a constant vigil of prayer so that satan will not enter upon you. You must now say when you arise: I will protect myself with the shield of the Immaculate Conception. You will say before you enter your bed (which will not be a bed of security and comfort now): I protect myself with the shield of the Immaculate Conception. For, My children, when you sleep he does not sleep." - Our Lady, July 1, 1971

MANTLE OF LOVE
"My children, as a Mother, My heart is torn for you. O mothers who come to Me, hearts bleeding in sorrow, I will comfort you, for I, too, know the suffering of loss. Come to Me, all you who sorrow and weep for your children, for I will place My mantle of love and comfort upon you. Come to Me, and I will lighten your burden." - Our Lady, October 6, 1979

SINLESS
"Remember, My children, come to My Mother; for in Her memory of Her human days upon earth, She above all humans created--sinless, without the stigma of sin, a perfect life upon earth without sin, and assumed into Heaven, body and spirit--She above all can direct you because She is your Mother; She is the Queen of Heaven, and the Mother of every human being upon earth." - Jesus, August 14, 1979

NATIONS
"As a great Mother of great sorrows, She has opened Her heart to all mankind, choosing of Her own free will to act as your Mother, the Mother of all nations, the Mother of all children of earth--to guide you back to the road to Heaven." - Jesus, October 6, 1979

BELOVED DAUGHTER
"You have witnessed, my child, the arrival of my beloved daughter, my first and only child, one whom I cherished--a true miracle from the Father." - Saint Anne, September 7, 1973

BEAUTY
Veronica - Now within the light I can see Our Lady. Oh, She is so beautiful. She is just so beautiful! Words cannot describe Her beauty. All I can say is, this is something that is not earthly; it's the most heavenly sight that anyone could see. Our Lady has on Her white gown, with the gold trim all about the edge. And She has the mantle over Her head. I very seldom have even seen a wisp of Our Lady's hair. It is so beautiful. - October 6, 1988

TRUTH
Veronica - She wants to give to all a simple truth from the Father. Our Lady says that much has been questioned by man of Her immaculate conception of Jesus. And also Her birth.
    Now Our Lady said that the Father knew before Her birth and the birth of all on earth what would transpire in time to come.
    Therefore, Her birth was not by accident, because before time came, it was all deemed to be. Therefore, the questioning also of the birth of Her Son would be most easy to understand, Our Lady said, if you know the power of the Father. For nothing is impossible with God.
    The world needed to be saved. The gates of Heaven needed to be opened to a sinful man. Therefore, the Father deemed to send His Son to earth and planned before "My birth," Our Lady says--Her birth, that She should be there to bring forth this heavenly Being Who would be known as the Son of Man and the Son of God.
    It was the plan of the Father to try to teach man and lead him back to the road to the Kingdom which had been shut to him. And because of his evil ways and his turning to satan, he had lost that road and the keys had been taken from him temporarily.
    Therefore, when, Our Lady said, She saw Her Son sacrificed upon the wood, She suffered greatly. But Her suffering and Her joy was intermingled, for She was given the knowledge before the birth of the Son that He would come to save all mankind. Therefore, when He returned to the Father, Her heart was lightened, knowing that She would remain but a short time and join Him in the Kingdom. So the loss was but a temporary heartache to Her.
    Our Lady knows that many question this. It is only because satan wishes to place doubt and destroy the truth. So Our Lady asks that you keep in your heart the truth and be not swayed by scientific minds that have been given great knowledge, but never the truth. - December 30, 1972
 
ONLY CHILD
"I come to you as your God, and I also want to make this clear: I did not have any brothers or sisters in My family. My Mother was Mary Ever Virgin. This was a supernatural manifestation from Heaven and only those who are in the light, they fully understand the existence of My Mother and the role She played in establishing the One, True Church upon earth." - Jesus, October 2, 1987

GENTLEST
"I give you My heart, torn anew by My own. I give you My Mother, the gentlest of creatures, human and sublime. I give you My Mother Who will be with you through the battle until I return as I ascended into Heaven." - Jesus, August 14, 1979

CONSECRATED
"My children, it is only because many years ago you consecrated your country to Me* that you have not received the destruction that is gradually coming closer to you from the outside world. But if you turn from Me now I no longer will be able to shield you." - Our Lady, July 1, 1971

*In 1846, eight years before Pope Pius IX proclaimed the dogma of the Immaculate Conception, the Sixth Council of Baltimore formally chose the Blessed Virgin Mary conceived without sin as the Patroness of the United States. 

MY HEEL
"I stand upon the head of the serpent. My heel will crush him, but not until man and the world have been cleansed. I come as a Mediatrix of all graces, representative through My Son in the Father." - Our Lady, March 18, 1973

INSTRUMENT
"To give Me honor does not detract or take from the honor to My Son. I say this, My child, to you and My children in all humility. I, your Mother, I, too, am but an instrument of the Father in Heaven. My Son has chosen to send Me to you as a Mediatrix between your world and the world of the Father." - Our Lady, December 24, 1974

GENESIS 3:15
"My children, I--My heart is greatly saddened at the distortion of doctrine in My Son's Church. I understand that man can be misled, for I have often counseled you that the road to hell is often paved with good intentions. You must examine your Bible, the Book of life. Genesis, chapter 3. There must be no changes in the story of the origin of mankind. 'She' must remain. 'He' must not replace it in the story of the serpent's attack upon Eve.
     "The Eternal Father has stated that the serpent shall crawl on his belly, stomach, My children. I use several words to illustrate the manner in which man is describing this time. He will crawl, the serpent, as the lowest animal among the beasts because he has deceived Eve. But the Eternal Father in His mercy has stated that He will place enmities between the serpent and the woman, between, enmities between the serpent's seed and the woman's seed; and the serpent shall have his head crushed by the woman and the serpent shall lie in wait for her heel.
     "Be it known that the Eternal Father has deemed that man shall not change the words to 'he' and 'he.' I say this not to bring any false notions in your mind, My children, that I repeat this in pride. Far be it from Me, for I have not sought, neither on Heaven or earth, to be prideful; but, My children, I must bring to you the words of truth. Many are changing the words to suit their own interpretations of the Book of life, and these interpretations are based upon man's own seeking.” - Our Lady, September 28, 1978

MOTHER
"Do not keep Me in awe, My child, for I am more a Mother than a friend to you." - Our Lady, November 1, 1971

MOTHER OF THE WORLD
"Count not upon the frailties of human relationship, because they die and wither away. Whereas My Mother, in Her Immaculate Heart, will always be there to counsel you, to guide you; because no purer a love has ever been given to mankind, than expressed when She submitted to My persecution upon earth, and saw that I was to leave. Knowing the will of the Father, She accepted this, and in that way became truly the Mother of the world." - Jesus, May 30, 1981

#7 - POPE JOHN PAUL II

"And the Lord said: Simon, Simon, behold satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and thou, being once converted, confirm thy brethren." - St. Luke 22: 31-32

---

MASSES
"Pray for your Vicar (Pope John Paul II). There will be another attempt upon his life. Pray for your Vicar. Do not judge him by the medias, for he is a good man, with a heart that is soft, and often he can be misled. However, he is a good man, and he is one who I keep now under My mantle for his protection. But We need your prayers, My children, your Masses and your sacrifices, if you want him to remain among you." - Our Lady of the Roses, June,30, 1984 
 
CHOSEN WELL
"Your successor to Peter has been chosen well. We sat him upon the throne of Peter for the principal reason to return My Son's Church to its original state.
    "Understand well, My children, that he is also a human being subject to error. But this does not mean that he is to be subjected to derision and hate, until you build up a fire within the hearts of those who are seeking to destroy him. Better that you pray for the Holy Father than to deride him.
    "Do not question him at this time, because I assure you, My children--as he will tell you in due time--I, too, have appeared to the Holy Father." - Our Lady of the Roses, September 27, 1986

SHAMBLES
"Up to this time, My child and My children, you know full well that the wishes and the directives from Rome, from the Eternal Father in Heaven, through Pope John Paul II, they have been cast aside, each and every individual going his own way and making My Son's House a shambles." - Our Lady of the Roses, March 18, 1983
 
1992

VICTIM SOULS
Veronica - And this chalice now is dripping. Oh, my! Oh, what's coming forth from the chalice is blood. Our Lady knows that this has given me a terrible inner shock...

     "I have given to you, My child, a message for your Vicar, and he must act upon it. Should he proceed by following the ways of man, using humanism and modernism to the destruction of souls and My Son's Church, I cannot then any longer hold back the heavy hand of punishment from mankind." - Our Lady of the Roses, December 7, 1978

FAR WORSE SACRILEGE
Our Lady - “Unless you pray for your Vicar, Pope John Paul II, he will be removed from among you. And if this takes place, there will be far worse sacrilege committed in the city of Rome and the parishes throughout the world. . . .”
    Veronica - I can see St. Peter’s. But now I see blood, blood running down St. Peter’s and into the square there and it’s dividing—it’s dividing the Church in half.
    Our Lady - “That, My child, is symbolism of what is to be. When Pope John Paul II is removed, the Church shall be divided among itself. United it will stand, divided it will fall.” - Our Lady of the Roses, March 18, 1983

FAITH AND MORALS

SENT TO YOU
"As I have warned you, the time is growing short, and the enemies of My Son's Church are accelerating in their plan to do away with your Vicar, your Vicar who has been sent to you by God the Father to save the whole institution of religion in the world, and not have it fall into the hands of the egomaniacs that reside in the land called Russia." - Our Lady of the Roses, September 7, 1985

    "Help him, My children, by writing, by trying to send through the blockade that they have set up in front of him in Rome: send a message of grace from Heaven to Holy Father Pope John Paul II. He must consecrate Russia to My Immaculate Heart; or else Russia shall go throughout the whole world, destroying nation upon nation, even the United States and Canada." - Our Lady of the Roses, October 2, 1987

WARNING
"My child, you speculate much about the coming Warning.

#6 - THE SACRED GROUNDS

"In certain places the Mother's presence is felt in a particularly vivid way. These places sometimes radiate their light over a great distance and draw people from afar.

One day, My child, the waters will come up at Bayside, and I will appear over the old church building [old St. Robert's church in Bayside, New York]. Your Bishop then cannot deny My Appearances." - Our Lady, May 17, 1986

#5 - THE HOLY PRIESTHOOD

"They are the glory and the immovable columns of the Church; they are the doors of the eternal city; through them all reach Christ; they are the vigilant guardians to whom the Lord has confided the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven." - Dignity and Duties of the Priest, St. Alphonsus Liguori

---

HOLY HOUR
"And I promise you, My child, through all the excessive suffering that you are doing, and as you offer it up to the priesthood, you are gathering some souls for Heaven....
     "The prayers that you have conducted for the priesthood on the Sundays of your years upon earth shall be counted at the time when all of you shall go over the veil. Then you will rejoice with all Heaven for the number of priestly souls that you have brought back to the fold." - Our Lady, September 27, 1986

VERY HAPPY
"I am very happy to see the numbers of My dedicated here this evening." - Jesus, November 24, 1973
 
DEDICATED
"The young children must be taken by their parents to the temples, the houses of My Son throughout your world. They must learn by habit a good example of cleansing of their soul by confession.
     "The good priests of earth, those who have been dedicated and received this consecration from My Son, must take these tender souls and nurture them in their Faith." - Our Lady, November 20,1975
 
TRUE
"Through this treasure [the medal of Our Lady of the Roses] will flow many graces from Heaven. Have them also blessed by a true, loving priest and wear them for the days ahead. For, as the crippled will be cured, the blind can see, so shall all be saved who believe and wear this medal." - Our Lady, February 11, 1971
 
LOVES SO DEARLY
Veronica--Our Lady is dressed in the same beautiful outfit. She has this--I would rather call it a habit, as She refers to the nuns, which She--oh, the nuns whom She loves so dearly--all Her nuns and priests. - June 18, 1982
 
LIFE OF PRAYER
"My Son has chosen from the world many to represent Him in His House. It saddens Our hearts to know that many now prefer life among the human race. They do not prefer to stand forth as an example of My Son. Unless My Son’s representatives return to their life of prayer, they will be led farther from the path." - Our Lady, December 24, 1972
 
FAR SUPERIOR
"A true legally-ordained priest is far superior than any man, as he represents Me in the Godhead." - Jesus, May 23, 1979
 
GATHER
"Clergy, followers of My Son, you who have sought a vocation and were graced to be chosen from among mankind, will you not gather Our straying sheep? Will you not gather My lilies from the field and give them the waters of life for Us?" - Our Lady, July 24, 1976
 
MOTHER OF LOVE
"My child and My children, I speak to you and I come to you as your Mother, a Mother of love. If only you could be as one with Me and My Son. How grateful We are for those who have chosen to dedicate their lives and give up all the attachments that bore into the human spirit and destroy it." - Our lady, September 7, 1985
 
SUFFER GREATLY
"You will make it known to the world that those whom I have chosen to be shepherds of My flock will suffer greatly in the days ahead." - Jesus, September 7, 1974
 
NEED PRAYERS
"Many priests, bishops, cardinals in My Son’s House need prayers from the laity that they may be strong enough not to fall into the plan of the third-worlders, who are also known, My child, as the one-worlders. They seek to destroy My Son’s Church and build one on the creation of man." - Our Lady, October 6, 1976
 
RESPECT
"I repeat, My children, as I have told you in the past, that the great Council of Vatican II was manipulated by Satan. He sat there among you and he worked you like a chessboard. "What can you do now to recover? It is simple, My children: turn back and start over with the foundation given to you. You must bring respect back to your priesthood." - Our Lady, May 15, 1976
 
RETURN MICHAEL
"You must enter, My pastors, Michael into your houses, your churches. It is urgent. He is the Guardian of your Faith. You must re-enter him now into your churches." - Our Lady December 24, 1975
 
HELP
"You must help your priests. It is not constructive to speak out in anger against My Son’s House, Church. If you have anything to say that you feel is being done wrong, go to the ones concerned--your priests, your bishops. Do not spread words among the disbelievers, those waiting to take anything that can be thrown back to destroy My Son’s House." - Our Lady, April 3, 1971
 
NO EQUAL
"My child, make it known to Our priests in My Son’s houses upon earth, churches, that We want Our priests to shine forth as pure examples of chastity and holiness.... "The example that must be shown and given to the children of earth by Our priests must set them apart as representatives of My Son. They do not have any equal upon earth, for their vocation is a special gift of God." - Our Lady, June 18, 1974
 
FOR LIFE
"When a man has given himself, and chosen from out of the world as a priest of his God, he will be a priest for life." - Our Lady, March 18, 1973
 
BADGE OF HONOR
"A duly ordained priest in the House of God shall not remove his habit. He shall not take the badge of honor of his vocation from him. In doing thus, he subjects his soul to contamination from worldly influence." - Our Lady, March 2 5. 1973
 
REWARD
"The simple life, My child, is the best for the dedicated. The dedicated, those who have accepted a vocation, must live only as human beings in the world, but must accept the spiritual.... Discipline must be returned to the Orders. Many must now retire from the world that has been given to Satan. Know now, my brothers and sisters of religious orders: you will be mocked, you will be scorned, but you will please the Eternal Father and receive your reward in the Kingdom." - St. Francis of Assisi, May 28, 1975
 
ETERNITY
"Additional graces I give unto you, My dedicated. Those who remain true to your teachings know that there is none whom you will answer to but the Father. Eternity is forever. Do not bargain your soul for the few years you have on your planet earth." - Jesus, September 13, 1974
 
POLITICS
"You must not involve yourselves, My pastors, with the political machines of your world. It is a satanic involvement." - Jesus, May 15, 1976
 
INSTRUMENT
"During the consecration of My Body, regardless of his human nature, whether it be saint or sinner, I come to you in full Body and Spirit. I come to you through him as a medium from God, through him as an instrument from God." - Jesus, June 18, 1977
 
A PRIEST FOR LIFE
"I have asked you once, I have asked you again, My children, not to abandon your parish churches. It is the plan of satan to shut the doors. Remember, My children, and I repeat again, that My Son is with you in the Eucharist. He is present with you in Body and Spirit. He will be brought to you by a legally-ordained priest, a man of God. Do not judge My Son's Church or its structure by the ways of man. The Spirit will work miracles over the corruption of the man. A legally-ordained priest is a priest for life.
     "Please, My children, pray for your priests. Many are being led astray. Discipline and the rule must be followed in the priesthood. This brings great sorrow to the Eternal Father and My Son to see the manner in which the priesthood has cast aside the rule in the name of modernism and humanism." - Our Lady, March 25, 1978

"DO NOT GO SEEKING ELSEWHERE"
"I ask you all not to abandon My Church. Do not judge My Church by the priest, for in his human nature he can err. But I assure you I am using him, as a legally ordained priest, to bring you My Body and Blood. Do not go seeking elsewhere, for you will lose your baptismal right, and you will no longer be accepted as a Roman Catholic, and you will not enter into the highest place of Heaven, the Kingdom of Paradise." - Jesus, October 6, 1980

#4 - PERMANENT DEACONS / EXTRAORDINARY MINISTERS?

"It must be taught, then, that to priests alone has been given power to consecrate and administer to the faithful, the Holy Eucharist. That this has been the unvarying practice of the Church ... as having proceeded from Apostolic tradition, is to be religiously retained." - The Catechism of the Council of Trent

---

FARCE
"Pastors, no hands other than those consecrated by a legally-ordained priest shall give the Host to others. Better that you spend more time consummating your role as the representative of Christ than joining the world. The extraordinary [Eucharistic] ministers have become a farce! Women? Children? Whatever shall become of you? The rules of discipline in the houses of My Son have already been given to you.
     "Only legally-ordained representatives of My Son—they receive the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit deems that they shall bring the Host to the man and the woman recipient and the children!" - Our Lady, August 21, 1975 


ONLY A PRIEST
Veronica - As a representative of Jesus, a legally-ordained priest must be the only instrument of God to bring the Body of Jesus to the multitudes. Only in a severe manner must a man—and this severe manner being the absence of a priest in the face of a death, then the priest will allow a deacon—a man, not a woman—a deacon, a man in the extremist emergency to take the Sacred Body of Jesus to a dying person. And that will be the only time. - November 19, 1977 

TEARS
"We ask and repeat that no one handle in unconsecrated hands the Body of My Son. It will be defiled and discarded, unless only a legally-ordained priest, a man of God with purified fingers of the Holy Spirit, give the Body and Blood of My Son to each one under his care. There is no need, My child, for women to rush into the sacred portals. There are enough throughout the world, men consecrated and chosen as ministers of the Eternal Father, of the Body and Blood of His Son, to distribute among mankind this Sacred Body. I have cried tears of great sorrows. I am truly the Mother of Sorrows, as I watch this constant desecration of My Son’s Body!" - Our Lady, September 6, 1975 

LAZINESS
"My child, you ask why I cry? I shed tears of great anguish. I watch anew the desecration to My Son’s Body being committed upon earth. None shall place their hands upon His Body! My Son has given you in trust those He has chosen among mankind to represent Him—your priests. None others shall carry My Son to mankind! You shall not defile His Body by giving Him into the hands of women, or those that have not been prepared by the Father as legally ordained priests in the houses of God—laziness, preoccupied with the world and with the pleasures of the flesh! Return to your habits and set an example as a man of God in the House of God, an example that will gather the sheep, not scatter them!" - Our Lady, November 1, 1974 

DISRESPECT
"My child, please, you must make it known to Our clergy that they are defiling My Son’s Body in many ways. Disrespect and dishonor, how many tears have I shed at the sight! Only consecrated hands shall give and bring My Son to the peoples of earth, legally ordained and given the Holy Spirit—the clergy chosen by the Father to bring His Son to you! Unclean hands shall not touch My Son’s Body! You must not allow My Son to be defiled any longer. No children shall carry My Son’s Body in the hands! Know, My child, that only one exception can be made: when a legally ordained priest is unable to reach the dying, he will send his deacon** to bring My Son to him. But only in severe trial and need, I say! Only to the dying. All others, My child, will be given the needed grace if they pray." - Our Lady, December 31, 1974 

* Deacon: it is understood here in the traditional sense: a celibate man soon to be ordained a priest.

NO WOMEN
"And I say unto you: none but legally-ordained priests in My House shall bring My Body to the multitudes! No woman shall stand in the Holy Place! No woman shall vie or compete for rulership in My House.
     "I say unto you, you must go back and read the commandments of the Eternal Father; you must go back and read the rules that Paul gave to you. You cast him aside and you write another book, a bible, a tome; you write it to suit your own basic, carnal, human nature.
     "The way has been given to you in the past, and the way does not change. It is a simple way. The rules have been given, and you change them for what? Were they imperfect? Have you considered the Eternal Father to be in error? I say unto you, you blaspheme in your consecration. I say unto you, you will return My House to its former status of honor, glory, discipline." - Jesus, July 15, 1977 

ETERNAL FATHER
"I repeat for your enlightenment again: no woman shall stand in the Sacrifice as a priest. How dare you set yourselves for a change created by satan! The plan of the Eternal Father has been made quite clear to you. Your father now is not the Eternal Father of Heaven, but the father of all liars, satan! My Son’s Body, sacrificed for you, tortured for you, is now being re-crucified in His own Church!" - Our Lady, March 18, 1970 

DISOBEDIENCE
"Repeat what you hear, My child, and shout it from the rooftops. No woman shall be on the altars of God! Disobedience, lack of respect for the Holy Father-what will this bring you to but your own destruction!" - St. Paul, March 24, 1974 

WOMAN’S DESTINY
"My child, make it known to the world that woman must return to her place as woman, for she has been misled. Was it not woman who fell to satan in the beginning? Her disobedience to the will of God brings much sorrow upon her and her children. It would be better now, My children, if woman would be silent, for she does not know the road she is traveling. It is only satan who has set her to rebel against her destiny." - Our Lady, March 24, 1974 


VATICAN II
"You will not destroy My Son’s House, Church, by consorting with the enemies of My Son! You will not convert the enemy by lowering the standards. Your example must be one of a steadfast faith.
     "Change! What need is change when the foundation has stood through the test of time? It is a dissatisfied man, a greedy and lustful man who seeks change. Does he change to bring man to God? No! He changes to take man from God and give him to Lucifer!
     "Satan was present, he listened with careful ears at the great Council. He awaited every move, and he placed his agents among you! Recognize and reconstruct your path. You have been deluded. You are on the wrong road. Turn about now, or you will sow the seeds for your own destruction!
    "How many warnings will you receive before the hand of your Father will descend upon you? No date do I give unto all mankind, but only to few. All those who accept the grace given freely for the asking will not be caught unawares. They will prepare themselves. All mankind upon earth should prepare for his death.
     "We look upon a world where mankind goes about defaming himself and the Father, wallowing in all manners of lust and pleasure, abomination—even in the House of God! He lives as though he never will die. No human flesh will be eternal, but the soul is eternal and will live on forever." - Our Lady, August 14, 1974

NO COMPROMISE
"You must not, O pastors, you must not compromise your faith; do not be misled. O pastors, you have forgotten your teachings. You must renew in a manner that is not new. You must go back, I say, go back and start anew with Tradition! You cannot separate Tradition, for you held the truth. You were given the grace, the greatest of gifts to mankind, to be born into or come into by conversion, My Son’s Church. And now you go about, O you of little Faith, to chip away and chop at the walls until it crumbles. But you shall not remove the foundation, for the foundation is My Son. You are re-crucifying Him in His own House." - Our Lady, April 10, 1976

CONTINENCE ASKED BY THE FATHER
"Men who are representatives of My Son in His Houses must now gather the flock and replenish their starving souls. It is apparent, My child, that many care more for filling their coffers than to feed their souls. The love of money has destroyed many. The love of power, power for the things of the world, has destroyed many. You cannot have both. You will not have this world and the Kingdom of God! For when you leave over the veil, you will enter the Kingdom of the prince of darkness, or you will join Us with great joy in the Kingdom of the Father.
     "Continence**, My child, is the sacrifice asked by the Father. You cannot divide yourselves; there must be a full dedication to the will of God. If you care more for man and cannot turn to the light and follow My Son, you are not a true representative of My Son. For he who cares more for man cannot give his heart to My Son." - Our Lady, March 24, 1974

**Cardinal Stickler, writing on the history of clerical celibacy, explains that "[T]he initial understanding of celibacy, which from the beginning was correctly termed ‘continence’…" (The Case for Clerical Celibacy: Its Historical Development and Theological Foundations, Alfons Maria Cardinal Stickler, p. 13)

NO MARRIED DEACONS***
"Why are you now planning to take married men, making them what you call deacons, to give the sanctity and holiness, the grace in marriage to My sheep?  What right have you to change the rules and the direction? Understand well: when I appointed the Apostles there were no names given as cardinals or bishops; but Peter was the first Pope, the leader, and would you say not that the Apostles were the first bishops? And after that they chose from out of multitudes, seven whom you call deacons and listed as deacons, but they were truly priests at that time. But you do not need the procedure now. If you are willing to ask the Eternal Father, and if you do not give yourselves over to doctrines of demons, you will have priests sufficient to carry out the ministry. But what do you do now? You will seek to make instant priests, against the will of the Eternal Father! You will delude others to think that your deacons can take the Sacraments and give them as in the priesthood! A priest, My children, is a chosen man of God. A true legally-ordained priest is far superior than any man, as he represents Me in the Godhead." - Jesus, May 23, 1979 
 

***NON-CELIBATE DEACONS IN THE ROMAN RITE:

A BREAK WITH TRADITION

Fr. James McLucas explains that "The preparation for optional celibacy began with the introduction of the permanent diaconate following the Second Vatican Council." Although it was claimed that this change was nothing more than the restoration of a classic practice, many Church leaders "remained silent, however, about the fact that there had never been a Holy ‘Order’ that was non-celibate since the mandating of celibacy in the Western Church." Fr. McLucas goes on to say that "The Vatican signaled early on its growing indifference towards celibacy within Holy Orders by permitting widowed permanent deacons to remarry. This contradicted an ancient practice that even the Eastern Church, which permits a married clergy, does not allow." ("Emasculating the Priesthood," Fr. James McLucas)
     He emphasizes that "even during those periods in the history of the Church which witnessed an active diaconal office, the deacon was celibate and was utilized mainly as a direct assistant to the bishop. He was not an ordinary minister of the Eucharist." This truth is borne out in many manuals on sacramental theology. For example, the 1963 edition of The Administration of the Sacraments states, "It is a certain teaching that the priest alone is the ordinary minister of Holy Communion." (Nicholas Halligan, O.P., The Administration of the Sacraments, 1963, p. 107, Imprimatur: Francis Cardinal Spellman) Fr. Halligan also reiterates Canon 845, § l-2 of the 1917 Code of Canon Law: "By ordination a deacon is the extraordinary minister of Holy Communion but only with permission of the local Ordinary or of the pastor granted by either for a serious reason, but this permission may be presumed in case of need. Apart from necessity a deacon would not be justified in acting without permission." (ibid., p. 108) Fr. Halligan then explains that an ordained transitional deacon would sin gravely if he administered the Eucharist without permission, and without necessity: "The deacon in administering Holy Communion observes the ceremonies as prescribed for the priest.... Unlike inferior clerics the deacon, although sinning gravely, does not incur an irregularity if he acts without permission." (ibid., p. 108) This theological understanding of the role of the transitional deacon is the same as that given by Our Lady of the Roses message.
     With the above facts in mind, we can better understand Fr. McLucas’ concern: "The creation of the married permanent diaconate eliminated the entwined and inseparable relationship among priesthood, celibacy and exclusive Eucharistic stewardship that had been the norm in the Western Church." (ibid., McLucas)
     During the debates at Vatican II, several high ranking clergy were adamantly opposed to reviving the permanent diaconate: "Cardinal Bacci, of the Roman Curia, spoke out against the principle of a married diaconate; it was both inopportune and dangerous. If the law of celibacy were relaxed for deacons, the number of priests would certainly decline, since youth ‘would choose the easier way.’ Moreover, if the Council waived the obligation of celibacy for deacons, the plea would soon be heard that the same should be done for priests." (The Rhine Flows into the Tiber: A History of Vatican II, Fr. Ralph M. Wiltgen, S.V.D., p. 98)
     The bishops of Portugal were also against restoring the permanent diaconate: "Archbishop Custodio Alvim Pereira, of Lourenço Marques, Mozambique, spoke on behalf of thirty-eight bishops from Portugal. He said that, if a candidate did not have the knowledge required of a priest and was not celibate, he was not fit for the diaconate; if, on the other hand, he did possess that knowledge and was celibate, he should become a priest. He contended that it was generally agreed that a married diaconate would undermine priestly celibacy." (ibid., p. 99)
     Bishop Franic of Yugoslavia, "speaking for the 16 Latin bishops of his country, declared that a married diaconate would be harmful to a celibate priesthood." (The Second Session: Letters from Vatican Council II - the Debates at St. Peter’s, Xavier Rynne, p. 103)
     But the most thorough argument against restoring the permanent diaconate was given by Francis Cardinal Spellman of New York. In fact, Cardinal Spellman’s argument is essential the same as that given in Our Lady of the Roses message:
"The first to speak on this controversial theme was the Cardinal of New York, Francis Spellman, in his ‘maiden speech’ on the floor at this Session (Oct. 4). He praised Chapter II as ‘very well composed’ except for Paragraph 15. The proposal to resurrect the diaconate as a permanent degree of the hierarchy was a disciplinary matter, he felt, which should not be included in a dogmatic constitution. The question then arose whether it should be treated anywhere else and his sentiment was that it should not for the following reasons. 1) Although it was true that the diaconate had formerly been a permanent office in the Church, it was now merely a transitional stage toward the priesthood.… Permanent deacons would have to be prepared for their functions, but ‘it is hardly or not at all possible to establish seminaries for candidates for the priesthood. How then can other houses be provided for deacons?’ 2) The main reason why permanent deacons become obsolete, it seems, was the need of the ministry for more priests, an organizational reason. ‘But this condition still prevails in almost the entire world.’ 3) Many lay religious and other members of lay institutes today carry out the functions formerly performed by deacons, and the number of laymen in the service of the Church is continually growing and being fostered. There would appear to be not need for permanent deacons on this score. 4) The proposal to revive permanent deacons stems mostly from liturgists who wish to restore ancient ways without taking into account present conditions. [The French newspaper] Le Monde quotes the cardinal as having said here: ‘Let us not indulge in archeology.’ [Le Monde, Oct. 6-7, 1963]. Pius XII in Mediator Dei warned against considering something as good simply because it was old.* 5) Seminarians obviously wanted to become priests. This is a sign of their divine vocation and nothing should be done to interfere with this. ‘God exercises his Providence over the Church according to present conditions’ the cardinal concluded. ‘It must be decided whether it is better to by-pass the divine will and have fewer priests along with permanent deacons, or more priests without them.’—It was obvious that practical considerations dominated the cardinal’s thought throughout and that he, or his advisers, had little sympathy for the pastoral-theological side of the question developed by modern theologians such as Karl Rahner.… In a press interview the same day at the Grand Hotel, Cardinal Spellman repeated the substance of what he had said on the floor. ‘The reason I am against it,’ he said, ‘is that it is unnecessary.’" (The Second Session: Letters from Vatican Council II - the Debates at St. Peter’s, Xavier Rynne, pp. 99-100)
* Pope Pius XII warned against the error of indiscriminately restoring old practices: "ancient usage must not be esteemed more suitable and proper, either in its own right or in its significance for later times and new situations, on the simple ground that it carries the savor and aroma of antiquity." (encyclical Mediator Dei, November 20, 1947, #61)
