Happy New Year – today we celebrate the Feast of Mary, Mother of God
I want share with you the message of Mary from the apparition of Our Lady of the Rosary in San Nicolas, Argentina which was approved on May 22, 2016, and then we will renew our consecration to Mary in the 5th decade.
From 1983-1990 Jesus and Mary appeared to Gladys Kiroga de Motta a wife and mother of two, giving more than 1800 messages.
To begin with, Our Lady asked that a Church be constructed in honor of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary. The Bishop, however wanted a sign. Well, he got one.
A seven year old boy named Gonzolo was dying of brain cancer and was paralyzed on the right side. However, Gonzolo wanted to receive 1st Communion before he died. The Bishop sent a priest to give him 1st Communion and entrust him to Our Lady of the Rosary.
Forty-five minutes after receiving Jesus in the Eucharist the paralysis left. And within three weeks the large brain tumor was completely gone.
The Bishop got his sign and started building the Church.

There is an urgency to the messages of San Nicolas
Our Lady said: “…as previously in Fatima, today my visits are renewed on Earth. They are more frequent and more prolonged because humanity is passing through very dramatic times.”
Then she stated: “God's warning is over the world. Those who stay in the Lord have nothing to fear, but those who deny what comes from him do. Two-thirds of the world is lost and the other part must pray and make reparation for the Lord to take pity. The devil wants to have full domination over the earth. He wants to destroy. The earth is in great danger."
Our Lady has come on a rescue mission! Mary is the Mother of All People and she has come to save all her children.
She said that two-thirds of her children are in danger of being lost forever - they are in danger of going to hell by their own free choice.
"My daughter,” Our Lady said, “because of a few good people, many bad people will be saved. I mean that with prayer, with the continual prayer of true Christians, many will reach salvation. Here, I explain the reason for my presence and the remaining of my messages, that are, in final instance, the Lord's word. There must be conversion for the salvation of the soul to be possible."
So, Our Lady comes to call the one-third of her children who are listening, that means you and me, to answer her call, take action and help her save as many souls as possible.
Our Lady has come on a rescue mission, she is asking your for help, she is turning to you right now, what will you do?

During the apparitions of San Nicolas, Jesus said to Gladys
“Formerly, the world was saved by the Ark of Noah. Today the Ark is My Mother. Through Her, souls will be saved, because She will lead them to Me.”
During the time of Noah it was a physical rain and flood which swamped the earth and destroyed humanity. Today, however, we face a spiritual flood of evil that is swamping the world and drowning souls. The rain is falling, the flood is rising…our mission is to get as many people on the Ark by introducing them to Mary. She will lead them to Jesus and to salvation.
Mary said: "My daughter, in this time, I am the Ark, for all your brethren! I am the Ark of peace, the Ark of salvation, the Ark where my children must enter, if they wish to live in the Kingdom of God. There is no obstacle for this Mother, and there will be none for the children."

In all of her approved apparitions, Our Lady is asking us to do three things to help her in this Rescue Mission to save souls:
The first is consecration to Mary
Our Lady says “Give me your hearts. I will put Jesus in them and make you my apostles.” Consecration to Mary means to invite Mary into your soul and your life so that with the Holy Spirit She may dispose you to receive Jesus more completely and form you in His likeness. Consecration is not a one time act. It is a way of life. It is to live a personal relationship with Mary as Jesus did, growing up in the care of Mary in Nazareth.
Second, Mary asks us to meditate on the Word of God in the Rosary every day. She said: “The weapon that has the greatest influence on evil is to say the Rosary…The Holy Rosary is the weapon which the enemy fears. It is also the refuge of those who look for relief for their sufferings, and it is the door to enter into my heart.”
Third, Our Lady does not want us to fight alone. She wants all her children to have a small group of family and friends with whom we share life and share our faith regularly. God set aside one special day each week for this – Sunday. We need to take back Sundays.
On this first day of the New Year – make the commitment to live Sundays well. Go to Mass and delight in all that God has done for you. Then invite family and friends to come together to share life. We gotta get out of the slavery of sitting in front of screens with one another. Instead, prepare and share a meal, get out in nature, do good things together and talk while you do it.
By consecration to Mary, the daily Rosary and taking back Sundays we can change the culture and help save souls.

Consecration to Mary by St. Maximilian Kolbe:
O Immaculate, Queen of heaven and earth, Refuge of sinners and our most Merciful Mother: You to whom God entrusted the entire order of mercy: I,…unworthy sinner, prostrate myself at your feet, humbly imploring you to accept my whole and entire self as your possession and property, and to dispose of me, of all my faculties of soul and body, of my whole life, death and eternity, as it pleases you.
Make use of me if such be your will, entirely without reserve to bring about that which was said of you: “She will crush your head,” and again, “You alone have destroyed all heresies in the whole world,” so that in your Immaculate and Merciful hands, I might become a useful instrument towards implanting and developing your glory in a most eminent degree in the many strayed and indifferent souls, and thus become instrumental in the spreading the sweet Kingdom of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, for wherever you enter, there you obtain the grace of conversion – since through your hands flow all the graces from the Sweetest Heart of Jesus.
Grant that I may praise you, O Sacred Virgin,
Give me strength against your enemies!
