MESSAGE FROM OUR SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST
“BENEDICT FOUGHT LONG AND HARD FOR THE TRUTH, THE ONLY TRUTH:
MY LIFE, DEATH AND RESURRECTION ON EARTH.”
DECEMBER 31, 2022, SATURDAY @ 1:53 P.M.

Anna Marie: My Lord, are you calling me?

Jesus: Yes my little one.

Anna Marie: My Lord, may I ask you please? Will you bow down and adore God your Holy Eternal Father who is the Alpha and Omega, the Creator of all life, of all that is visible and invisible?

Jesus: Yes dear one, I your Divine Savior, Jesus of Nazareth, will now and will always bow down and adore my Holy Eternal Merciful Father who is the Alpha and Omega, the Creator of all life, of all that is visible and invisible.

Anna Marie: Please speak my Holy Merciful Lord, for your sinful servant is now listening.

Jesus: My dear one, I know it is hard to hear about the passing of a great Pope, Benedict, however, it was time for him to return to my Father’s Kingdom before any other travesty would take place in my Holy Church. [Pope] Benedict fought long and hard for the Truth, the only Truth: my life, death and resurrection on earth. It was in his grave sufferings that he had completed his passion after mine in the eyes of the world. He suffered greatly for my Bride, the Church on earth. Now it is his great glory to be joined with the Holy Saints in Heaven and with my Dearest Mother, that he always loved. Anyone who knew him, knew of his great loving devotion to my Holy Mother, Mary. So be in peace and do not allow your hearts be saddened. He is rejoicing in my Heavenly Fathers’ Kingdom today.

Anna Marie: Yes my Lord, but who do I pray for now, since Pope Benedict was my only Pope?

Jesus: Now it is time to pray for the conversion of Francis and all those who are in direct support of his papacy.

Anna Marie: Yes Jesus. Lord Jesus, please help your suffering children now. Console our hearts that are broken today please.

Jesus: Yes, I am and I will. Be in peace, I am with you ALL until I return to gather you all up as my own. Your Divine Savior, Jesus of Mercy.

Anna Marie: My Lord, do I post this message?

Jesus: Yes please do before midnight.

Anna Marie: Thank you my Holy Merciful Jesus.

7th Day within the Octave of Christmas(1)
God The Father

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says:

“Children, tomorrow opens the door on a new year. Therefore, today, spend time in discerning what you should change in your personal relationship with Me so that we could be closer. What areas of your personal holiness are discouraging to you? What distracts you in prayer? How can you change your relationships with others to be more like Holy Love?(2) What virtues do you most need to improve on? What are the areas of pride in your life? Each of you has some spiritual weakness. Today, as you prepare for the beginning of a new year just hours away, discern what areas of weakness need the most grace. Then, pray for that grace to overcome your spiritual weakness.”

Read Galatians 6:7-10+

Do not be deceived; God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption; but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. And let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season we shall reap, if we do not lose heart. So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.

Read Colossians 3:12-15+

Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassion, kindness, lowliness, meekness, and patience, forbearing one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body. And be thankful.

Words From Jesus
Chosen Messenger, Jennifer

September 17, 2022
2:24 PM

My child, Many ask you where are My words, why is your Savior silent? My child, I am where I have always remained—sitting in the silence of the tabernacle. Awaiting souls in Adoration and yet who comes? I ask My Children, are you seeking your Savior? Are you chasing a world that is being inundated with evil? The tide has turned and My Children need to heed the warnings that are all around them. Satan is seeking to gain as many souls as possible through the means of fear. He has unleashed his companions upon every corner of the earth in order to cause chaos and confusion.

He has inundated the walls of My Church and he will take with him those who have complied to his wickedness. My Children do not be afraid, for as I told Peter, the gates of hell will never prevail against My Church. It is the only place in which heaven and earth unite because I Am present Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. Those within My Church who have allowed evil to enter in their hearts and have guided many souls down the wrong path, will come to see the errors in their ways.

I come to tell you that great change is beginning to unfold, and where it begins is in My Church, it will funnel throughout the world. Look to the roots of My Church, My Children, because when this false prophet begins to change the prayers of the Mass, the teachings of the magisterium, know this is not of Me, for I Am Jesus. Just as the thunder follows the lightning, there is order in which humanity was created. As the passing of the true pope is shadowed by this false prophet, the changes will come like boxcars and so will the confusion.

Pray the Rosary and seek discernment in all things because your true home is in heaven. Now go forth for I am Jesus, and be at peace, for My Mercy and Justice will prevail.

December 25, 2022

“Dear children! Today I am carrying my Son Jesus to you, that you may be His peace and a reflection of the serenity and joy of Heaven. Pray, little children, to be open to receive peace because many hearts are closed to the call of the light which changes hearts. I am with you and I pray for you to open yourselves to receive the King of Peace, Who fills your hearts with warmth and blessing. Thank you for having responded to my call.”

Annual Christmas Message given to visionary, Jakov

The apparition began at 2:18 pm and lasted 8 minutes. Our Lady came with little Jesus in her arms. Through Jakov, Our Lady gave the following message.

December 25, 2022

“Dear children! Today, when the light of Jesus’ birth is illuminating the entire world, in a special way, with Jesus in my arms, I am praying that every heart becomes the stable of Bethlehem in which my Son will be born, so that your lives become the light of His birth. Little children, you live in restlessness and fear. Therefore, little children, today on this day of grace, pray to Jesus to strengthen your faith and become the Ruler of your lives because, my children, only with Jesus in your life will you not look at restlessness but pray for peace and live in peace, and you will not look at fear, but Jesus, Who frees us from all fears. I am your Mother who constantly watches over you and I bless you with my motherly blessing.”

6th Day within the Octave of Christmas[1]
Blessed Virgin Mary

Blessed Virgin Mary says: “Praise be to Jesus.”

“Dear children, the purpose of these Messages[2] and all the graces attendant to this property[3] is to change hearts from lukewarm to fervent belief in Holy Love.[4] Holy Love is a call to all people and all nations to hasten to their conversion before the Apocalypse.[5] Within this call to conversion is My own call to embrace hearts as a mother during these ambiguous and troubled times. When a soul does not know how to choose or what direction to follow, Holy Love is the compass which keeps them on track of their own personal holiness and salvation. Holy Love transforms the difficult decisions into the obvious choices needed to advance into the Chambers of Our United Hearts.”[6]

“During these times when Satan desperately needs to snatch souls from the path of righteousness, Holy Love is a beacon of delivery from evil. No one who embraces sin is also embracing Holy Love. Each soul needs to pray for honest discernment as to the direction his life is taking.”

Read Ephesians 6:10-17+

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we are not contending against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having fastened the belt of Truth around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the equipment of the gospel of peace; besides all these, taking the shield of faith, with which you can quench all the flaming darts of the Evil One. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

Read Hebrews 12:14+

Strive for peace with all men, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord.

Read Jude 17-22+

But you must remember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; they said to you, “In the last time there will be scoffers, following their own ungodly passions.” It is these who set up divisions, worldly people, devoid of the Spirit. But you, beloved, build yourselves up on your most holy faith; pray in the Holy Spirit; keep yourselves in the love of God; wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And convince some, who doubt;

December 30, 2022

Blessings beloved ones,

I, “a soul”, am presenting to followers of this blog, MaryRefugeOfSouls, the second of two articles, which I hope will help people looking to preserve and maintain their wealth in this challenging time when much paper (fiat) money is losing value due to inflation. The first article was about silver rounds, which I hope everyone read and found useful. This second article is about my experiences with fractional gold. My hope is that both articles will help people prepare for these uncertain economic times. Please be sure to read both articles, so you can make the best informed decision for yourself. Please note that I am NOT a financial broker or dealer or tax or legal expert. So, I urge you to investigate further and seek professional help based on your situation. I am just giving you my opinions based on my personal experiences as a Christian believer.

As I shared in my earlier article, I first started out purchasing silver rounds with religious images over 12 years ago. However, over time, I realized that it was important to me to diversify my emergency funds beyond only silver. This is because the spot price for silver ounces seemed so volatile to me (ranging between USD $15 to $50 an ounce at different times, today, it is about USD $25). So, for my peace of mind, I wanted the stability of the spot price of gold, which seemed to simply steadily increase over time.

Of course, being a person of limited means, buying an ounce of gold has always been out of my range (today, the spot price is about USD $1,800 an ounce). Moreover, it has been important to me to purchase gold in smaller, incremental amounts, rather than one ounce pieces. This is because if the economy tanks, I doubt people would be using one ounce gold coins / rounds to buy a loaf of bread and quart of milk. So, I ventured out with purchasing one gram gold bars minted by Valcambi, a private mint based in Switzerland, and later, I added one gram gold bars minted by Perth, the official government mint in Australia. (Today’s price for one gram of gold is about USD $75). I chose the one gram bars from Valcambi and Perth, because they had simple designs that did not offend my Christian sensibility. However, I did eventually stop buying from the Perth mint, because I did not agree with what the Australian government was doing to their people during the Covid lockdowns.

Although I have been blessed at times to be able to buy gold in higher increments, such as 2.5 gram bars and 5 gram bars, etc., I realized that I was doing this only to preserve my wealth and to cease any headaches due to volatile silver spot prices. However, buying one gram gold bars was doing nothing to sanctify my money before God, or could potentially lead to people’s conversions in a future economic downturn. That was the great advantage that I had with purchasing silver rounds with Christian images.

Until today.

My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, I am so excited to share with you all about a gold product that I recently discovered. I think you all will be very interested and I hope this information will help many people.

Now, let me backup and say that fractional gold is any gold product that comes in an incremental amount of less than the standard one troy ounce of gold. So, fractional gold would include pieces that are 1/2 ounce, 1/4 ounce, 1/10 ounce, one gram, etc. Anything that is less than one troy ounce which is equal to 31.1034768 grams. Having the option to purchase gold in such fractional increments is wonderful, because it enables more buyers to be able to own gold on more limited budgets. And I am all for the win of the little guy when it comes to competing with big corporations, big banks, and big-time investors.

Well, today, dear brothers and sisters, I have the pleasure of introducing you all to the “Goldback” (https://www.goldback.com). Goldbacks are similar in concept to banknotes, such as the Federal Reserve note known as the US dollar, however, they are not paper (fiat) currency. Rather, goldbacks are described as the “world’s first physical, interchangeable, gold money, that is designed to accommodate even small transactions”. And when talking about small transactions, this is a literal description, because today’s value of one goldback is about USD $3.90 (about the cost of a cup of coffee). It solves the problem of making gold easily spend-able and useable for actual barter. They look similar in size to banknotes, such as the US dollar. However, they have small increments of gold actually embedded within the note. So, they are definitely NOT any type of paper currency. They hold intrinsic value because they consist of actual gold!

Goldbacks come in the following denominations:

1 Goldback (equals 1/1000th ounce of gold)
5 Goldback (5/1000th ounce of gold)
10 Goldback (10/1000th ounce of gold)
25 Goldback (25/1000th ounce of gold)
50 Goldback (50/1000th ounce of gold)

They are recognized as currency in 4 states so far: Utah, Nevada, New Hampshire, and Wyoming. And, in 2023, goldbacks are planned to be rolled out in Alaska, Idaho, and South Dakota. Moreover, goldbacks can be used in any state or country that accepts gold for barter or trade.

I do not live in any of the states that recognize the Goldback as currency so far, but that has not deterred me from stocking up on them. Each state has their own series of designs for their goldbacks, but they are also interchangeable with other states that recognize them. For example, you can use Utah goldbacks in Wyoming, etc. Also, as you can tell from the earlier chart, five 1 Goldbacks equal a 5 Goldback, two 5 Goldbacks equal one 10 Goldback, etc. They are fungible both in terms of the amount of gold within each note, as well as the going EXCHANGE rate. So, for example, if 1 Goldback is worth USD $3.90, then a 5 Goldback is worth 5 times more at USD $19.50.

Note, to figure out the going spot price of the actual amount of gold found in any Goldback, you just divide the spot price for an ounce of gold by 1000. Then, you take that number and multiply it by the denomination of the goldback.

So, for example, if the spot price for gold is USD $1,800 an ounce. Then, 1 Goldback has $1.80 worth of gold embedded in the note, a 5 Goldback has USD $9 worth of gold embedded, a 10 Goldback has USD $18 worth of gold embedded, etc.

The exchange rate is the prevailing AVERAGE of what people are willing to exchange goldbacks at any particular time in monetary or barter situations in the different states. Whereas the cost of purchasing goldbacks is typically about double the amount of gold embedded within the note. So, for example, 1 Goldback might have USD $1.80 worth of embedded gold, a purchase price of USD $3.60 from a currency dealer, and an average exchange rate of $3.90 between people and businesses accepting goldbacks. However, people are often willing to exchange goldbacks for much more because they are so much better to possess over paper currency, since they are sound money and have intrinsic value as a gold product.

Now, we are getting to the most exciting part. Most of the designs for the different goldbacks have Christian and liberty influences. For example, I purchased several 1 Nevada Goldbacks, because they have Our Blessed Mother Mary on them. I also like several of the Wyoming designs, which are based on biblical characters and themes. The 25 Utah Goldback has a pro-life design and the entire New Hampshire series is very patriotic. I was so happy when I discovered this. Finally, a gold fractional that has a low barrier to entry — meaning a lot of people can own gold on limited budgets AND it is a gold product that I would be proud as a Christian to possess and exchange with others as currency. And having the Blessed Mother on my gold is just icing on the cake. Note, I have included the description of the 1 Nevada Goldback below along with the link to the art gallery, so you can see the various designs available so far in the different states.

Also noteworthy, I believe that the availability of goldbacks now is providential. This is because gold is honest money being recognized in the Holy Bible as an acceptable form of monetary exchange between nations, societies, and people. The concept behind goldback currency is certainly a better alternative than digital currency (precursor to the mark of the beast). Honestly, I want nothing to do with any digital currency that may be rolled out by the Federal government. That’s why I believe in owning both gold and silver because I want to maintain my independence and freedom. I want to maintain my options, meaning, my ability to not be enslaved to any draconian system that requires people to give up their rights in order to physically survive.

I believe that goldback currency will help to achieve this goal of independence as an alternative to beast like enslavement. Certainly, people need to be prepared first spiritually, then second, physically with survival food, water, etc. But, as the economy falters and we move into a transitional economic state before the Great Tribulation, if you can prepare beyond these basics, then having an emergency fund of gold and silver has its place in your survival plans. Moreover, having some goldbacks on-hand is something to consider to diversify your exposure risks.

Now, there are several methods of purchasing goldbacks. If you want to buy goldbacks right away, the best way is through a reputable currency dealer. I have found that these three companies give good purchase rates for their goldbacks: Defy The Grid, Finest Known, and Money Metals. Others can be found on this list: https://www.goldback.com/where-to-buy-goldbacks Personally, I have used Defy The Grid in the past and have found them to be a very honest dealer with a quick turnaround speed in getting their products shipped to you. I also have been impressed by the knowledge I have gained in reading various articles about gold and silver on the website for Money Metals. They certainly go out of their way to help people learn about the bullion markets.

Finally, I want to tell you a little about Alpine Gold / United Precious Metals Association (UPMA) (https://upma.org). Alpine Gold is a company owned by Goldbacks, Inc., the actual company that produces and promotes goldbacks for the various states. Both are located in Utah and they are both an excellent company to deal with. I have an account with United Precious Metals Association (UPMA), which is owned by Alpine Gold and it is the method I use to buy goldbacks at the best price. This is because UPMA does NOT add a premium to their goldbacks, meaning they are sold at wholesale costs. Note, goldbacks are available to international buyers and they do ship goldbacks globally. UPMA has over 40,000 members so far and they are expanding their membership.

There are also several advantages to owning an UPMA account. Besides purchasing goldbacks at wholesale prices, you can also purchase goldbacks on a monthly subscription at wholesale prices as well. You can also leave the goldbacks in your account at their vault and their reserve is kept at 100% (fully backed by goldbacks) all the time. This means that their vault is not a Ponzi scheme / derivative nightmare and you will always have access to your money. Also, if you own a goldback account, it has no fees associated with it — it is absolutely free to store your goldbacks at the vault until you want them. Then, once you want your goldbacks, you can specify the exact number, series, and denominations you want your currency in — no problem!

The only downside to a UPMA account is that it can take a bit of time for a deposit to clear, especially, if you do a bank / credit union ACH transfer, etc., to purchase new goldbacks. So, if you want immediate access to your goldbacks, it is best to fund the account by bank / credit union cashier’s check or money order. You can also exchange your existing gold and silver products for new goldbacks. Also, you can place your existing gold and silver products in the vault at UPMA for a reasonable fee, as well as buy directly through Alpine Gold more US Gold and Silver Eagle Coins for your UPMA account.

Also, you can make additional money on your goldback account through their lease option, as well as use their VISA debit card for a reasonable monthly fee if you want to use sound money in your daily money transactions. Note, you can always put the VISA debit card on hold so you do not get charged the monthly fee if you are not using the card. It works as a preload debit card needing only USD $50 minimum to use from your goldback account. It is my understanding that the VISA debit card can be used by international owners of UPMA accounts and does not require a financial background credit check.

If having an UPMA account appeals to you, please visit their website for more information. https://upma.org/

Also, this is my only “plug” for this blog, MaryRefugeOfSouls. If you decide to sign up up for an UPMA account, here is my referral link. It does NOT cost you anything more to sign up using my referral link – so, it is absolutely free for you — however, I will make a small commission that I will use to support this blog, MaryRefugeOfSouls. Thank you for considering this. https://member.upma.org/?referral=232391418801860196

I truly hope that I have helped many people through these past two articles. Be sure to watch the videos, especially, the interesting interview by Mike Adams of Jeremy Cordon, the founder and creator of Goldbacks. It is worth the time.

God bless,
a soul

DESCRIPTION
Goldback Art Gallery: https://www.goldback.com/goldback-art-gallery

1 Nevada Goldback
Caritas (Charity)

Caritas, or Charity, is the Virtue beautifully featured on Nevada’s 1 Goldback Denomination. This is her first appearance on a Goldback Design, and is notably patterned after a depiction of Mary, the mother of Jesus, in St. Augustine’s Catholic Church in Austin, Nevada. Catholicism is Nevada’s most dominant religion and St. Augustine’s is the oldest Catholic Church building in the state. Like all Goldback designs, the art contains many levels of symbolism. Some major symbols of Charity featured include: the Sierra Nevada Lily, which is in the container below Mary’s feet to the right; the Mary Magdalene Rose, in the container on the left; cherubs crowning Mary and Burning Hearts to either side of her; Charity’s lit candle in her hand, and Nevada’s sun, rising over the mountains seen through the window behind her.

The window, the candlestick in the right corner of the window sill and the columns on each side of the design, are each inspired from St. Mary of the Mountains Catholic Cathedral in Virginia City, (now, Saint Mary in the Mountains Catholic Church & Museum), which was also an inspiration for this artwork. The window below Mary’s dress hides the word “Love”, the symbol of a square, a compass, a wagon wheel, and rosary beads. The viewer will also note the ash tree, symbolizing marriage and Las Vegas’s status as the marriage capital of the world; and a family of ring-necked pheasants, which showcase the selfless acts of nurture and protecting their family and young.

5th Day within the Octave of Christmas(1)
God The Father

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says:

“The choices people make are governed by their love and respect for Me and My Commandments.(2) If a person holds disdain in his heart for anyone else, then he needs to seek My Help in resolving it. That is his Christian duty and I will hold him responsible for it at his judgment. Holy Love(3) dictates that you love and respect all others, not just the ones you agree with. Communication is the key to a friendly relationship. If you cannot listen to one another, you are not open to Holy Love. The same holds true if you close your heart to sharing information with another. Holy Love is patient and kind with all others and can selflessly see how his words and actions affect others.”

Read 1 Corinthians 13:4-7+

Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Blessings beloved ones,

I, “a soul”, am presenting to followers of this blog, MaryRefugeOfSouls, the first of two articles, which I hope will help people looking to preserve and maintain their wealth in this challenging time when much paper (fiat) money is losing value due to inflation. This first article is about silver rounds and the next article will be about fractional gold. My hope is that both articles will help people prepare for these uncertain economic times. Please be sure to read both articles, so you can make the best informed decision for yourself. Please note that I am NOT a financial broker or dealer or tax or legal expert. So, I urge you to investigate further and seek professional help based on your situation. I am just giving you my opinions based on my personal experiences as a Christian believer. Note, I make no money and no commission on any of the links in this first article.

As followers may recall, I have written before about Miraculous Medal Medjugorje Silver Rounds offered by Century Silver Exchange (https://www.centurysilver.com). I have bought one ounce silver rounds from Century Silver for over a decade and they are a fantastic, caring Christian company to deal with. The silver spot price has fluctuated a lot during the more than 12 years that I have bought silver rounds. I have seen the silver spot price go between about USD $15 to a high of about USD $50 an ounce. Today’s average is about USD $25. Regardless of how much I have paid for my silver rounds, I have always felt that the rounds were worth the cost, because the holy images found on the rounds “sanctify” the rounds making them “honest money” for when it comes time to use them (when the economy collapses). Today, I have collected several one ounce Miraculous Medal Medjugorje Silver Rounds, usually buying a few rounds one-two times a year. They come in airtight coin tubes, which is very important for keeping silver from oxidation (tarnishing). The rounds that I bought over a decade ago still look as beautiful today (2022).

I did not know how important it is to keep silver in airtight containers until recently. Unfortunately, I made a mistake years ago and bought some Valcambi Combibars — 100 gram bars in silver. Although I paid a good price for them (because silver was much cheaper years ago), I did not realize that they would oxidize in their officially sealed assay holders. So, today, the combibars are showing oxidation and there is no way for me to clean them without breaking the seal. I am really disappointed by this and I do not recommend Valcambi Silver Combibars to anyone. The Valcambi Gold Combibars are OK, because gold does not oxide (tarnish).

I had bought the silver combibars because I wanted silver in smaller increments than one ounce, but they are not worth it in my opinion, unless you know how to properly store them. Also, today, precious metal dealers are commanding about $150 or more for a 100 gram Valcambi Silver Combibar and they only have about $100 actual value of silver. So, you are paying about a $50 premium for the convenience of having a 100 gram silver bar divisible into smaller one gram increments. It is simply not worth it, especially with the oxidation issues.

Instead, if you are looking for silver in smaller increments – either 1/2 ounce, 1/4 ounce, or 1/10 ounce, you can purchase up to 10 of each at a time in Miraculous Medal Medjugorje Silver Rounds on the Century Silver Exchange website. They will come in airtight coin tubes and yes, the fractional rounds that I bought several years ago still look beautiful. The only reason that I ventured out with buying the Valcambi Silver Combibars is because I was trying to get a better value for my dollar, but my oxidation issues prove I was buying the bars for the “wrong” reason. Clearly, if possible, it is far better to get silver with holy images, which sanctify your wealth and might one day result in a person’s conversion.

Early on, when I was first starting out, I did buy several 1/10 silver ounces with a US Walking Liberty design from a different mint and kept them in airtight coin tubes. These smaller rounds also look very nice today, but they are also stamped with the words, “In God We Trust”. So, I do believe that if you want silver in smaller incremental amounts, it is important to recognize God somehow in the design. A definite lesson learned for me!

When I was first starting out over a decade ago in buying silver rounds, there really were not a lot of choices for Christian designs on silver. Basically, the only cost-effective choice was the Miraculous Medal Medjugorje Silver Rounds. However, today (2022), there more options on the bullion market.

In this article, I want to introduce you all to the Scottsdale Mint in Arizona, USA (https://www.scottsdalemint.com). I want to recommend them for both their “Jesus” coin collection and their “stacker” rounds and bars. First, let me discuss their Jesus coins. Their Jesus coins are actual legal tender (currency) in the country of Samoa. Note, Samoa is different from American Samoa, which is an official territory of the USA. In contrast, the country of Samoa broke away from New Zealand and used to be known as Western Samoa until 1997. It is a very Christian island nation and it shows in their money, especially, with having Our Lord, Jesus Christ, on their coins.

Minted by Scottsdale, their Jesus coins are notable for three reasons. One, the Jesus one ounce and 1/2 ounce silver coins are cheaper to buy than the equivalent Miraculous Medal Medjugorje Silver Rounds. Two, you can buy the Jesus coins in gold. And three, a significant portion of each coin is donated to charity, especially, benefiting African children. I do know with the Miraculous Medal Medjugorje Silver Rounds, a portion benefits the Caritas Community in Alabama, USA, which I believe in supporting as the world’s largest Medjugorje apostolate. However, the exact amount that Caritas receives is not disclosed online. In contrast, the exact USD given to charity by Scottsdale Mint for each coin can be found on their website. It varies depending on the coin increment and precious metal.

Besides the Jesus coins, the Scottsdale Mint also produces their “stacker” silver rounds and bars. I like them, because their mascot is a lion with a crown — definitely, a subtle nod to Christianity, the Lion of Judah, Our Lord, Jesus Christ. They come in increments of 100 gram, 2 ounce, and 5 ounce silver rounds, as well as 10 ounce, one kilo, and 100 ounce silver bars. The silver rounds and bars are called, stackers, because you can inter-mix them, as you do not need the same kind for them to “lock” together creating a stack. So, all the different rounds will stack together, likewise, with the silver bars.

Depending on the quantity, you may receive the silver rounds in coin flips, coin capsules, or coin tubes. Make sure they are airtight, otherwise, you may need to buy separate airtight containers for the silver rounds, or you may need to store the larger bars with a dehumidifying crystal which will slow down oxidation. I have found that the company called SD Bullion (https://sdbullion.com) is a good choice for fair prices on silver rounds / bars from Scottsdale Mint, as well as for coin containers, dehumidifying crystals, etc. You can also purchase coins / rounds / bars directly from Scottsdale Mint. Both companies will cater to international buyers and ship outside the US.

In closing, I want to address why I believe it is important to prepare monetarily now. Clearly, everyone is concerned as our world economy seems to be imploding and the costs of goods and services is escalating. Owning gold and silver is an excellent hedge when paper money loses it value, especially, when an economy is collapsing. I believe in owning both for many reasons. Firstly, both gold and silver are sound money, having been used as currency by governments and nations for thousands of years. It is also biblical being recognized in Sacred Scriptures as honest money.

Owning gold and silver also gives peace of mind when paper (fiat) currency gets devalued which earns less purchasing power over time. During times of trouble, gold and silver naturally increase in value while paper currency falls in value. It has intrinsic value, as once you have a gold or silver piece, it maintains its weight and purity. Meanwhile, paper currency can be ripped apart, burned, or destroyed. Paper is as plentiful as trees, while there is decreasing finite amounts of gold and silver in various mines in the world. Paper currency is only as valuable as how many people believe in its perceived value. But, if people loose confidence in it, paper currency becomes worthless – sometimes overnight.

Also, it is good to own both a mix of gold and silver, because while gold is sometimes confiscated by governments in a currency crisis, less so with silver. Also, silver is at an excellent buying price compared to gold. Currently (2022), the spot price for an ounce of gold is about USD $1,800 versus the spot price for an ounce of silver is about USD $25. Historically, though, the ratio has been 17 ounces of silver equaling one ounce of gold. So, hypothetically, if the economy were to collapse, if gold simply maintained its value, silver might increase to USD $105 an ounce. However, that is clearly, a very conservative estimate. For example, at one time in ancient Eypgt, 3 ounces of silver equalled one ounce of gold. So, I believe it is a good idea to own both gold and silver, because both have the potential to significantly increase resulting in preserving your purchasing power and hard-earned wealth.

Finally, I want to add that owning silver in smaller increments like 1/2, 1/4, and 1/10 ounce rounds is also a good idea, because while silver is a good value now, if it increases significantly per ounce, you will need smaller increments to pay for common household goods and services. Currently, I only invest in silver rounds and silver bars that are 0.999% in purity. I do not invest in US pre-1965 silver coins, which are about 90% in purity. This is simply because it is easier for me to keep track of what I own in silver ounces and grams. Honestly, I do not know much about the US silver coin market, but if I ever have the time to learn more and invest in US pre-1965 silver coins, I will update you all with my thoughts. Meanwhile, for me, having 0.999% silver rounds and bars are the best method.

Thank you for considering my words. I hope that this article proves helpful to you all.

God bless,
a soul

Further Notes:

• Spot price is the asking price for a precious metal on the international currency / commodity markets. Typically, precious metal dealers and exchanges will add a premium above the spot price so they can cover mint manufacturing costs, insurance, etc., and to earn a profit. So, for example, while the spot price for an ounce of silver might be USD $25, the buyer will likely pay $30 or more for the finished coin or round.
• Coins typically have more valuable because they are backed as currency by a recognized government. However, a one ounce coin and a one ounce round with 0.999% purity have exactly the same amount of gold or silver in the pieces. So, minted rounds can have the best cost value over minted coins, because they can be cheaper to buy for the same content of gold or silver. Note, silver rounds can also cost more if they are minted and sold as collectibles.
• Both gold and silver are measured in units of troy ounces and grams. Troy ounces are not the same as the avoirdupois ounce, which is the United States customary and British imperial ounce. A troy ounce weighs more than an avoirdupois ounce.
• One troy ounce equals 31.1034768 grams. 100 grams equals 3.21507466 troy ounces.
• One avoirdupois ounce equals 28.349523125 grams. Copper is often measured in avoirdupois ounces. I do not recommend copper as an investment due to oxidation issues.
• Oftentimes, mints will add 1/100th of an ounce more gold or silver to their products, so they will measure at least the minimum necessary to meet or exceed standards for international trading. So, for example, a troy ounce will be at least 31.1034768 grams worth of gold or silver, but usually a 1/100th more. Same, for products measured in grams, etc.

MESSAGES TO LUZ DE MARIA
https://www.revelacionesmarianas.com/english.htm

MESSAGE OF SAINT MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL
TO LUZ DE MARIA
DECEMBER 23, 2022

Beloved People of Our King and Lord Jesus Christ:

I am sent by the Most Holy Trinity to reach the heart of all humanity who, as God’s People, must save souls.

IN COMMEMORATING THE BIRTH OF OUR KING AND LORD JESUS CHRIST EVERY HUMAN BEING MAY PLACE THEIR WHOLE PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL BEING BEFORE THIS DIVINE CHILD, SO THAT WITH A PERSON’S FERVENT DESIRE, THEY WOULD BE TRANSFORMED BY LOVE, TRUTH, GOODNESS, CHARITY AND ALL THE GIFTS AND VIRTUES WITH WHICH THE INFANT JESUS ADORNS HIS CHILDREN.

Children of Our King and Lord Jesus Christ, humanity continues living in a chaos of unstoppable violence that spreads from one person to another, sometimes consenting to it without knowing why, but merely in order to imitate their brothers’ behavior.

THIS IS THE INTENTION OF THE POWERFUL: to see to it that the human race would self-destruct in terms of morality, society, spirituality, food and economics, so that, due to such a weight of inappropriate acts, human beings would renounce the Most Holy Trinity, Our Queen and Mother, and despise everything that reminds them of the Divine, blaming God for everything that happens.

AS WE COMMEMORATE THE NATIVITY OF THE INFANT JESUS, EVIL IS ASSAULTING HUMANITY MORE FORCEFULLY AT THIS TIME THAN IN THE PAST, IN VIEW OF THE PROXIMITY OF WHAT OUR QUEEN AND MOTHER HAS BEEN WARNING YOU ABOUT FOR SO LONG.

It is human beings who have given free rein to their human will, going down various wrong paths that have led them to this moment.

People of Our King and Lord Jesus Christ:

AS WE COMMEMORATE THE NATIVITY, THE AFFAIRS OF MEN DO NOT STOP: CONFLICTS CONTINUE, PERSECUTIONS INCREASE, AND THE UNEXPECTED WILL OCCUR DUE TO CONSTANT WARFARE ON THE PART OF EVIL, WHICH HUMANITY IS ALLOWING TO UNDERMINE ITS LIFE.

Pray, pray for Mexico: it will suffer due to nature.

Pray, pray, pray without stopping for Brazil: your brothers and sisters need your prayers.

Pray, pray for strength for all humanity.

Pray, pray for Europe: you urgently need to pray for Europe – it will suffer due to nature and man himself.

You have a rocky road ahead of you…
A single religion will impose itself on humanity, which easily surrenders to innovations.

Human creatures forget that the Cross of Our King and Lord Jesus Christ is impregnated with the Salvation of every human being, and that it is only on the path of Truth and repentance that you can find Salvation.

YOU FORGET THAT OUR QUEEN AND MOTHER DRIVES AWAY THE DEVIL; HE FEARS HER, AND OUR QUEEN AND MOTHER IS ATTENTIVE TO HER SON’S PEOPLE.

You are on a path filled with every temptation, with the snares of evil, with the insinuations of evil, and evil knows that this is the time for it to take its spoils of souls… YOU MUST BE STRONG AND FIRM SO AS NOT TO FALL.

Children of God, remain attentive and do not be careless, because from one moment to the next there may be a conflict planned in advance. Without exposing yourselves in the midst of the strife, each one of you should keep calm and stay where you are until you find a safe opportunity to leave, if you must do so. My Legions are attentively awaiting your calls to come in haste, children of Our King and Lord Jesus Christ.

A GREAT SIGN FROM ON HIGH IS COMING.

Each one of you knows that Divine Protection is over humanity. Divine Mercy is infinite: ask Our King and Lord Jesus Christ for it to penetrate within you, and give Him permission to make of each one of you a new creature, so that you would succeed in overcoming the many trials that humanity has brought upon itself.

ADORE THE INFANT JESUS IN THE MANGER, IN EVERY HOME, IN EVERY PLACE WHERE HE IS CORRECTLY REPRESENTED.

My Legions are caring for each one of you. I bless and protect you with My Sword held high.

St. Michael the Archangel

4th Day within the Octave of Christmas(1)
Blessed Virgin Mary

Blessed Virgin Mary says: “Praise be to Jesus.”

“Children, I wish so much each of you could have knelt with Joseph and Myself next to the manger. There was pure peace, perfect self-detachment in that little stable as we shared the present moment together with My Newborn Son.(2) No worldly concern robbed us of our peace. There was no more cold or foul smells. The small space was filled with a warm light and a pleasant, yet unfamiliar fragrance. There was no inner urging to be somewhere else or to take care of other situations or problems. Such an environment is unimaginable in the world today.”

“Children, the more you fill your hearts with worldly concerns, the more easily you give in to sin. Do not fill your hearts with lack of trust in the Lord’s Provision. His Will for you is perfect and always resolves every situation perfectly.”

Read Romans 8:28+

We know that in everything God works for good with those who love him, who are called according to his purpose.

3rd Day within the Octave of Christmas(1)
God The Father

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 the spirit of the first Christmas to stay alive in your hearts throughout the year by praying often during your working hours. This shows Satan that you belong to Me and have chosen to be Mine. It is in this way I can lead you and guide you according to My Will. You will recognize Me if you choose to stay close to Me.”

“Anything or anyone which opposes prayer is not from Me, but from evil. Remember this as your day opens before you.”

Read Philippians 4:4-7+

Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. Let all Men know your forbearance. The Lord is at hand. Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

2nd Day within the Octave of Christmas(1)
God The Father

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says:

“Children, if you are joyful and at peace today it is because you based your celebration of Christmas on Jesus’ Birth. Sometimes, you try so hard to please others and you are unsuccessful. My Son(2) and I reciprocate all your efforts to please Us by placing joy and peace in your hearts. Concentrate upon Our Joy and Acceptance of your loving efforts and you will be at peace as you will be of good will. Pray for the needs of the poor who are so appreciative of your smallest efforts.”

Read Luke 2:13-14+

And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men with whom he is pleased!”

Christmas Day
God The Father

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says:

“My children, today, as you celebrate the Birth of the Lord,(1) realize that every present moment is a special gift from Me to you. Perhaps the moment opens the doorway to a deeper conversion experience. Perhaps the present moves you to forgiveness of someone in the past – even yourself and some sins you committed before your conversion. The present may hold the grace for you for a deeper understanding of My Love for you. It may hold the grace of a way out of difficulties and coming into My Embrace. The present moment is My Gift to each of you on this Christmas Day. Pray to recognize its effects in your life as each day wears on.”

Read Galatians 6:7-10+

Do not be deceived; God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption; but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. And let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season we shall reap, if we do not lose heart. So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.

Christmas Eve
St. Joseph

St Joseph says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“As the Holy Mother(1) and I progressed along our journey towards Bethlehem, I did all I could think of to make Her more comfortable – cooler in the midday sun – warmer at night. She never complained, but I knew Her needs without Her speaking them. Our disappointment at finding lack of suitable dwelling when we reached Bethlehem was surrendered to God the Father in trustful love. We did not fear God’s Plan for us. We waited for its unfolding. God sent us the grace to do so.”

“This is the grace each soul needs to pray for in the world today. Pray against Satan’s discouragement. Pray against unreliable fearful anticipation of the future. Wait for the friendship of grace.”

Read Luke 2:6-7+

And while they were there, the time came for her to be delivered. And she gave birth to her first-born son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths, and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says:

“Children, amidst all the preparations you are taking care of for the holidays, make certain that your hearts are prepared to celebrate and commemorate the Birth of My Son, Jesus. Be grateful for Mary’s ‘Yes’ in Her role as the Mother of God. Be thankful for the patience of Mary and Joseph as they met rejection upon their arrival in Bethlehem. Be thankful as they willingly accepted a humble space in the stable. It is their acceptance of My Divine Will which brings you the celebration of this holy holiday. Without their ‘Yes’ there would be no reason to celebrate.”

“Throughout their lives both Mary and Joseph accepted My Will for them. This is what I Call each soul to do, beginning with and ending with obedience to My Commandments.”(1)

Read Ephesians 5:15-17+

Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, making the most of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

Read 1 John 3:21-22+

Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God; and we receive from him whatever we ask, because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him.

Blessings beloved ones,

I, “a soul” of MaryRefugeOfSouls, am excited to bring to you all the latest TTEN Interview hosted by visionary, Gianna Talone-Sullivan. Today’s interview features a very devout and holy priest, Fr Neil Buchlein. He is very much a believer in Catholic prophecy, having been to Medjugorje over 20 times as a spiritual director on pilgrimages. In this interview, Fr Neil discusses the many signs and wonders that he has experienced as a priest in his parish as well as on his trips to Medjugorje. The most marvelous are the many Eucharistic Miracles (“Manifestations”) that he has personally witnessed in the different parishes that he has ministered. He also speaks about his vocation which came about in an unusual manner and how Our Holy Mother has blessed him.

I hope that you enjoy the interview as it is really worth watching. I am inspired by his testimony and I hope that you all will keep him in your prayers – as we need more dedicated, holy priests like Fr Neil Buchlein. Here is also the link to dear father’s website so you can view up close the photos of the Eucharistic Manifestation: http://blessedmotherschildren.com God bless!

PROPHET JOHN LEARY
http://johnleary.com

Tuesday, December 20, 2022:

Jesus said: “My people, it is My faithful people who warm My Heart that you love Me and you help others to know and love Me. I love all of you so much, and you make up for all of the other souls who ignore Me, and some even hate Me because Satan is controlling them. Keep your faith in Me and you will have your reward in heaven. You have been hearing some people speaking about the coming year of 2023, but do not be afraid of the coming events. I will be protecting My faithful, even if it is at your refuges. You know the one world people are preparing for their Great Reset and the coming of the Antichrist. They will establish a new money system when they will try to force the mark of the beast on everyone. Do not take the computer chip in your body because I will call you to My refuges for your food, water and fuels that I will multiply. Those people, who take the chip in the body and worship the Antichrist, will be lost forever in hell. (Rev 14:9-11) ‘If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives an (evil) mark upon his forehead or his hand, he also shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured unmixed into the cup of His wrath; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the sight of the holy angels and in the sight of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torments goes up forever and ever; and they rest neither day nor night, they who have worshiped the beast and its image, and anyone who receives the mark of its name.’ Trust in My Word that I will have My angels protect you from the evil ones with a shield of being invisible. My Warning will come before the Antichrist will declare himself. So do not worry about dates because I will warn you when it is time to leave for My refuges when your lives are threatened.”

Monday, December 19, 2022:

Jesus said: “My son, you have been blessed to have four children, even if your son died early. I showed you in your vision of one of your miracles where an icon turned from silver to gold. You also have had other miracles of light on your chapel walls. These miracles have been My gifts to you to confirm your missions of sharing My messages and keeping up your refuge. Every person is given a physical and a spiritual mission in life, and it is up to each person to live a holy life so you can fulfill the mission that you were given. Give praise and thanks to Me for all I do for everyone in their lives. Because each soul is important to Me, you need to stop your abortions because this violates My plan for each life that is conceived.”

Jesus said: “My people, it is sad to watch the one world people and Biden take your country down. Be ready to leave for My refuges because your government is doing all of the wrong things. Biden, the Democrats, and even some Republicans are continuing the overspending which will add to your inflation. Your open Southern border is allowing millions of illegal immigrants to flood into your country where they are causing a drain on your society to feed and house them. The drug cartels are controlling your border because of Biden allowing this destruction of your country. You are also seeing how the FBI is interfering with your media platforms to control your news and your free speech, which is also allowed by Biden. Now you are seeing why I am calling My faithful to set up refuges, so you can have a safe haven of protection. With the evil ones ruining your country, you could soon be in a communist dictatorship. You will see Christians being persecuted, as your country is falling further away from Me and your religious roots of your forefathers. Pray to save as many souls as you can while you still have time.”

Sunday, December 18, 2022: (Fourth Sunday of Advent)

Jesus said: “My people, today’s Gospel shows St. Joseph in a trial of what to do with the Blessed Mother who was pregnant with Me. I had an angel give St. Joseph a dream to show him that it was by the power of the Holy Spirit that the Blessed Mother had conceived Me. It was still St. Joseph’s free will to take her into his home as his wife. It had also been the Blessed Mother’s fiat free will to accept being My mother. This brought together the Holy Family, ready for My birth on Christmas. Give praise and thanks to Me for coming to earth as a God-man so I could save all of mankind from their sins with My sacrifice. All of the angels are singing in joyful celebration as you commemorate My birth again.”

Saturday, December 17, 2022:

Jesus said: “My son, when you went shopping with your wife, you saw all of the trouble it is to pick out gifts for people. You usually see all of the gifts wrapped, but now you appreciate what effort it takes to go through the stores and parking. In today’s Gospel from St. Matthew you read My genealogy from Abraham down to My stepfather, St. Joseph. If you look at St. Luke’s Gospel, you see the names from St. Joseph even back to Adam. This makes you understand how the human family has passed the torch of life and faith down to your own generation. You should be thankful for your parents who brought you into this world and gave you your start in faith with My sacraments. There are some families with only one parent and it is hard to see the family tree in its origins. It is right to want to know your heritage, and you saw this in Belgium on your wife’s side, and your trip to Ireland on your father’s side. As you prepare for My feast on Christmas, now you are revisiting My heritage in My Jewish family.”

Jesus said: “My people, many people spend a lot of time entertaining themselves with sports and night clubs, but few people spend time with Me in Adoration of My Blessed Sacrament. Your people are more taken up with earthly things that will pass away. You should be more concerned with heavenly things that are eternal and keep focusing on your goal of heaven. I have told you many times, what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and he loses his soul? I thank My Adoration people for spending time with your Lord who loves you. Keep your focus on Me and you will have your reward with Me in heaven forever.”

Friday, December 16, 2022:

Jesus said: “My people, for those people, who did not yet make it to Confession before Christmas, I am giving you a reminder to have your soul cleansed of sin, so you are more worthy for My feast. This is still Advent and a time of penance and seeking My forgiveness of your sins in Confession. I came to the earth so that everyone would have a chance to be saved from hell. Come to Me, who loves you so much, so you can share your love for Me as well. I came as a little infant in a humble stable to save all of mankind. The angels are all around Me as they are praising the coming of My Feast of Christmas. Your best gift to Me is your love for Me, and following My Commandments.”

Jesus said: “My people, you have heard various people comment on how serious the Hunter Biden laptop story shows how there is collusion with Communist China and your government. Certain people in your government have taken money from China and such a breach is a serious threat to your National security. This breach could be grounds for treason of those people who are taking money from China. You are seeing a major coverup of this information to protect some top Democrats from being exposed. Once the House Republicans have power to investigate this story next year, you will see problems getting meaningful information which will be a continuing coverup. There are Masonic elements in your Congress that will be fighting to continue the coverup of this laptop story. You will be fortunate to see the real truth come out about all of the payoffs from China and Russia. If this truth does not come out, then you will know how corrupt your government is because of the control of the one world people. Be patient and I will bring justice to these evil ones.”

Thursday, December 15, 2022: (Funeral Mass for Mark Hanna)

Jesus said: “My people, it is sad to see someone die relatively young at 68 from suffering two years with cancer. Such a sickness is humbling for anyone. Mark was happy to see so many people come to his wake and the funeral Mass. He loves everyone who he left behind, and he will be praying for his family and watching out for them. He thanks all of the people who took care of him in his last days. He went to heaven with this Mass.”

Prayer Group:

Jesus said: “My people, I have spoken to you about a time when there will be a division in My Church. You will see a new Mass introduced as a part of a one world religion. This will be the beginning of the Great Reset. My faithful will have to come to a refuge Mass to have the proper words of Consecration. The new Mass will not have the proper words of Consecration, and I will not be Present in the host of the new Mass.”

Jesus said: “My people, I thank all of your members for coming out to your prayer group, despite the bad weather. I also thank you for praying the four rosaries that My Blessed Mother requested to pray for the conversion of your family’s souls. As you come to so many funerals, you see how quickly life passes by and people are called home in their death. Pray for all of the souls of the deceased people when you come to a funeral.”

Jesus said: “My people, remember to thank all of the people who bring food for your rosary group, and those who bring flowers for the altar. It is when different people bring things that you appreciate the chef for your meal. As you each make your own contribution of a dish to pass, you realize how you will be eating meals at your refuge. When you are called to My refuges, you will appreciate those people who I called to set up refuges during the tribulation time.”

Jesus said: “My people, I give you all a guardian angel, so you will have many guardian angels at each refuge. You are fortunate that St. Meridia has been given to you as your prayer group angel and your refuge angel. Hopefully, you will have a priest or more at your refuge so you can have Mass and the sacraments. If you do not have a priest, My angels will bring you daily Holy Communion. When you come to My refuges at the proper time, you will also have a luminous cross in the sky over your refuge. When you look on this luminous cross, you will be healed of all of your infirmities.”

Jesus said: “My people, when you see this comet that will appear as two suns in the sky, this will be the day of My Warning. Each of you will have your own vision of being brought in front of Me to witness your own life review. After feeling sorry for your sins, you will see your own place of judgment based on what you did during your life. Then you will have six weeks of a conversion time with no evil influence. This will be your time to try and convert your family members to believe in Me. If they do not believe in Me and do not change their lives, then they could be on the road to hell. Pray for these conversions of your family to believe in Me. This is why you are praying your fourth rosary in order to evangelize the souls of your family so they do not go to hell. By being converted, they will be allowed into a refuge. Each person who believes in Me will have a cross placed on their forehead by My angels.”

Jesus said: “My people, one of the signs of a refuge is to have a source of water that you will need for drinking, cooking, washing dishes and clothes, and for sponge baths. This is why I had you, My son, put in a well on your ground. My angels will multiply this fresh water for all of the people who come to your refuge. Do not worry about the water running out, because you will have plenty of fresh water. Remember how I did not let the wine run out at the wedding feast at Cana. I also provided the bread for the 5,000 and the 4,000 people, so I know how to feed all of the people, even for less than 3½ years of the tribulation.”

Jesus said: “My people, be patient and do not be anxious about the dates of the coming events as the Warning and the tribulation time. Some people may die of fright on the day of the Warning. Trust in Me that My angels will make you invisible to the evil ones who will want to kill you. These evil ones will not see you coming to My refuges. If non-believers were originally present in a refuge, they will be ushered out of your holy place. This is why any of My faithful can have a refuge, and I will honor their desire by having My angels provide for what is needed at all of My refuges. Have no fear because My angels will not allow anyone to be harmed at My refuges. You will have to live in trust of My miracles by your faith that I can do all things for you, such as protecting you and feeding you for all the years that you will be at My refuges during the tribulation.”

Wednesday, December 14, 2022: (St. John of the Cross)

Jesus said: “My people, St. John of the Cross was a mystic and a doctor of the Church with his deep Carmelite contemplation and self-denial. You can imitate his holy ways, especially in prayers and penances during Advent. As you draw closer to Christmas, you are preparing your physical gifts, as well as your prayers for your family members. You are fortunate to have all of My gifts of creation every day to fit your needs. Other people ignore Me, and they even insult Me with their sinful lifestyles. These pagans will suffer greatly in hell, if they do not convert their lives to believe in Me. Pray for the conversion of sinners after the Warning, when they could see from Me how evil their lives have been.”

Jesus said: “My people, all of the super rich people are part of a plot to bring America down so they can take over and control people through the chip in the body. These evil ones take orders from Satan and they are able to manipulate elections, and through their money influence, they can control the people. Many of your elections have paid people to cheat with ballots because there is no investigation of the cheating ballots without checked signatures. As long as no one investigates the cheating, the Democrats will continue to win elections and maintain their control over your people. You are already under a liberal dictatorship that is violating your laws. You will soon be persecuted so much that you will need to come to My safe havens. Be prepared to leave your homes quickly for My refuges, as events will become more threatening to My faithful. Trust in My Word that My angels will protect you.”

Tuesday, December 13, 2022: (St. Lucy)

Jesus said: “My people, I am showing you this vision of hell so you could see the suffering souls burning in hell in their soul, which they will suffer for all eternity. This is their punishment just like the demons for refusing to obey Me and love Me. You do not want to see anyone go into hell, yet a majority of souls choose to go there by their own free will. They ignore Me in life, even though they know about Me in the Bible. I give every sinner one last chance to love Me or not, so these souls have chosen hell or they sold their soul for the pleasures of this world. This life passes away quickly, but heaven is a better choice for all eternity. Keep praying to have your family convert their souls to belief in Me so they can avoid this punishment in hell. It is better to love Me in heaven than to suffer in hell with the demons who hate you.”

Jesus said: “My people, you just witnessed Biden signing the Marriage bill which allowed all kinds of gender so-called marriages that is enough to make you sick to see it on your TV program. It is bad enough that you are killing My babies with abortion, but this legalizing of all kinds of sexual sins, is right out of the pits of hell. I warned you about your coming punishments if you did not stop your abortions. But this latest passage of your so-called Marriage bill is an insult to true marriage of a man and a woman, and an insult to Me for Biden to approve these sexual sins of all earthly filth. You are compounding your punishment for making such a disgraceful law. Be prepared for a takeover of your country and more natural disasters as your punishment. Be also prepared to come to My refuges when the evil ones will persecute Christians for their belief in Me. Fear not for these evil ones will be cast into hell for all of their corruption, lies, and support of evil laws. I will protect My faithful at My refuges when your lives are threatened.”

MESSAGE OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
TO LUZ DE MARIA
DECEMBER 19, 2022

My beloved People:

Children of My Sacred Heart:

I BLESS YOU WITH MY LOVE, I BLESS YOU WITH FAITH, I BLESS YOU WITH FRATERNITY, I BLESS YOU WITH MY TRUTH, so that you would be aware at all times that without charity, you will not overcome human selfishness, nor its fruit, which is hatred – and My children are saturated with hatred at this time.

You must look within yourselves, even if it is difficult for you. My arrogant children do not listen to Me; they look at their brothers and sisters without looking at themselves and these human creatures of Mine must change so that they would learn to offer up their pain to Me and learn to be humble.

IT IS HUMILITY THAT YOU NEED AT THIS TIME, FOR CHARITY IS NOT ONLY ABOUT HELPING THE NEEDY, BUT LOVING AND RESPECTING ONE’S NEIGHBOR WITH THEIR FAULTS AND VIRTUES.

Humanity lacks everything that I have mentioned to you… Therefore, it is very important and indispensable that each one of you pray and offer Me Eucharistic Communions in reparation for the errors with which My Church is offending Me. And bear in mind that receiving Me in a state of grace, worthily prepared, as well as the prayer of the Holy Rosary, can succeed in lessening the intensity of some of the events to come, if it is My Will.

My People, some of My children are asking themselves:

Why is it that the most serious part of what Heaven has announced in these prophecies is not happening? My children, if you would think, if you would reflect on what you want, you would retract and regret it.

My people, great tragedy will come to some countries when they least expect it because of remaining distracted by the distorted Christmas of man today.

The celebration of My Birth has become a pagan festival, with representations of My Birth that in some cases are shameful. They have wanted to force Me into the pagan current of this time, even within My Church. MAY THOSE WHO MOCK MY BIRTH BE ANATHEMA (1).

My beloved People, the battle between good and evil continues with greater force. My beloved St. Michael the Archangel is defending you with all His Heavenly Armies, otherwise you would find yourselves at war.

IT IS NECESSARY FOR EACH ONE OF MY CHILDREN, ON A PERSONAL LEVEL, TO BE RESPONSIBLE TO HUMANITY BY BEING LIGHT (cf. Mt. 5:13-15) IN THE MIDST OF SO MUCH DARKNESS THAT SURROUNDS YOU.

South America, land of spiritual fruits and great resources, will be subjected to the uprisings that will recur in several South American countries.

Children of My Sacred Heart:

DO NOT TAKE MY WORD LIGHTLY: WAR IS BEING PREPARED BY THOSE WHO BELIEVE THEY LEAD HUMANITY, POLITICIANS, AND NATIONS.

Pray, My children, pray for Brazil, prayer is urgent for this endangered nation. Prayer to My Divine Mercy offered for this land beloved by Me and My Mother at three o’clock in the afternoon of each country, as well as the recitation of the Holy Rosary, with the offering of Holy Communion, is a blessing for My beloved land.

Pray My children, pray for Argentina: this land that I love has disrespected Me and has disrespected My Mother, whom some of My children love so much. I asked for Argentina to be consecrated to the Sacred Hearts and this request was taken lightly. My Mother who came as an intercessor was not obeyed. What My Mother wanted with all Her Heart to hold back, was greeted with disbelief. This is why the purification will be undergone that this people are bringing about.

Pray, My children, pray for Peru: this nation is suffering from internal strife.

Pray, My children, pray for Europe: the scourge of war is spreading. Cold will come, threatening My children.

Pray for Italy and pray for Spain: they will suffer.

Pray where war causes innocent people to perish.

My People, social uprisings will spread throughout the Earth, exacerbating famine, disease, persecution and injustice.

The earth will shake continually with greater intensity. At times it will shake from within the earth; at other times the hand of man will intervene, and he will be punished for his wrongdoing.

I come to the heart of each person as a Beggar of Love…..
I come in search of a place to warm My little defenseless Body….
I am the King of Love in search of hearts of flesh to shelter Me.

My children, I do not want fearful people, but creatures of faith, with so much faith that they are aware that “I am their God” (Ex. 3:14, Jn 8:23), and I will not abandon them.

Keep your faith growing constantly. Fraternity is necessary at this time and respect is a barrier against evil.

Be creatures of love, generous in patience and wanting the well-being of your neighbor.

I love you, My children, I love you.

MY SACRED HEART BURNS WITH LOVE FOR EACH ONE OF YOU.

I bless you.

Your Jesus
