2 Declaration Since the abolition of Canon 1399 and 2318 of the former Canonical Code by Pope Paul IV in AAS 58 (1966) 1186, publications about new appearances, revelations, prophecies, miracles, etc. have been allowed to be distributed and read by the faithful without the express permission of the Church, providing that they contain nothing which contravenes faith and morals. It is permitted since then to publish, without an imprimatur, texts relating to new revelations, apparitions, prophecies or miracles, without compromising the Holy Roman Catholic Church in any way. In accordance with the decrees issued by Pope Urban VIII, the publishers of the material in this book declare that they submit themselves to the judgment of the Holy See. In cases which concern private revelations, it is better to believe than not to believe, for, if you believe, and it is proven true, you will be happy that you have believed, because our Holy Mother asked it. If you believe, and it should be proven false, you will receive all blessings as if it had been true, because you believed it to be true. Quote from His Holiness, Urban VIII (Pope ) Saint Paul wrote, Do not quench the Spirit. Do not despise prophetic utterances. Test everything; retain what is good. 1 Thes. 5:19-21 For those who believe, no explanation is necessary. And for those who do not believe, no explanation is possible. Famous quote related to apparitions at Lourdes, France. Page 2

4 WHAT DOES THE CHURCH SAY ABOUT THE QUEEN OF MERCY EVENT? On October 3, 1988, a committee appointed by the bishop of Lubbock, came to Saint John Neumann Church to investigate claims of messages and miracles surrounding the Feast of the Assumption, The investigation included a study of the content of the Rosary Messages. Before departing on October 5, 1988, the committee put together a report of their findings. The following section consists of quoted material from their report entitled MARIA which relates to the message. ASPECTS OF MARIAN DOCTRINE AND DEVOTION Since the events surrounding Saint John Neumann s Parish during the past several months have primarily related to the role of Mary as intercessor in our Catholic beliefs and devotions, it is important to include in this report a few reflections upon the Marian doctrine and devotion involved that have resulted from our careful and prayerful examination of the phenomena, especially of the contents of the Rosary Messages and their evident impact upon the three messengers, and those who have learned about them through these messengers. In the majority of these messages, the Mother of Jesus is portrayed as speaking to the messengers. As one reflects upon these Rosary Messages in light of the guidelines for authentic and balanced Marian devotion given to us by Pope Paul VI in his Apostolic exhortation of 1974, Marialis Cultus, on the right ordering and renewal of messages where Mary is speaking at least two of these guidelines are verified in a special way, namely, that devotion to Mary must be Christocentric, i.e. they lead us through Christ to union with the Triune God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. To illustrate this, we should like to call your attention to such continuous refrains from Mary as the following which is found in the very first message to Mary Constancio on March 1, As a result of the Monday night rosary devotions at Saint John Neumann Parish, Mary says that the people taking part will become closer to my Son Jesus (and) that the world must hear the good news that my Son Jesus has come to keep His promise In the second message given to Mary Constancio on March 14, 1988, our Blessed Mother is reported as saying: Know that your Father in heaven has come unto this lowly church for His glory and for the salvation of other. Although the Trinitarian emphasis mostly relates to the Father and to the Son both in His divinity and His humanity, there are also references to the Holy Spirit such as on March 22, 1988, the Monday after Pentecost, to Mary Constancio; I (Mary) come through the force of love through the grace of the Holy Spirit There are several other characteristics of sound Catholic teaching and spirituality which are reflected in the Rosary Messages given to Mary Constancio and to Mike Slate, but these two are especially underlined to show that the messages appear not only to be free from any doctrinal error, but are very much in keeping with Vatican II s teaching about Mary s role of helping us come closer and closer to her Son, and through her Son to the Father in the Holy Spirit. 1 1 The Commission Report Maria ; Part II, #4, October 1988 Page 4

5 LIVING THE MESSAGE Mercy is love and forgiveness in action. (Queen of Mercy, December 8, 1999) We here at the Ambassadors of the Flame of Mercy believe that these messages given to Mary Constancio by the Blessed Virgin Mary under the title of Queen of Mercy by the power of the Holy Spirit for the building up of the body of Christ. We believe that the Blessed Virgin Mary leads all God s people to her son, Jesus, and to a clearer understanding of God s love. We also believe that these messages from the Queen of Mercy are leading us to a clearer understanding of God s divine mercy, and how we are to live that mercy: love and forgiveness in action. We pray that our lives will be the sign that she has left behind, bearing good fruit to the Glory of God. Henry and Mary Constancio Howard and Carolyn Huntzinger Ralph and Jessica Mendez I wish, my Beloveds that you seek after holiness. I wish that you would seek it daily with intention to be holy seek it with a purpose to please God. 2 I love you as only a mother could love her children. I embrace you as my children. I want you to live a holy life. Just praying will not make you holy. It is living your prayer that will make you holy. 3 Remember, my children, I have not been sent out of my own power, but by the power of the Holy Spirit; the same power used to raise my Son to His Resurrection. Think of it, my children: if there is power of this magnitude for the raising of my Son for your salvation, then how much bigger can your problem be? 4 2 October 16, August 15, November 7, 1988 Page 5

6 HISTORY OF THE THE MESSAGES OF MERCY The beginning of this amazing series of events seems to stem from a proclamation of Pope John Paul II who, on June 7, 1987, proclaimed a special 14-month Marian Year. Bishop Michael J. Sheehan of the Diocese of Lubbock, writing in the South Plains Catholic, expressed the wish that every family and every parish would show greater devotion to the Blessed Mother. Father Joseph James, pastor of the St. John Neumann Church, and members of the parish staff, invited the bishop to dedicate the Saint John Neumann Chapel as a Marian Year shrine. The bishop did as they asked, and apparently the Blessed Mother took the dedication seriously, for in the spring of 1988, she began giving messages to three people from that parish. On Sunday February 28, 1988, in the chapel of Saint John Neumann after a healing weekend retreat with the pastor Father Joseph James and a handful of retreatants, Mary Constancio experienced the presence of whom she believes to be the Blessed Mother for the first time. According to Mary Constancio, one of the locutionists 5, "hearing the Blessed Mother's voice pierced my heart, and her words could only be understood within the depth of my soul. The voice sounded like a song - so gentle, kind, and most of all with so much love that I would never be the same again." The message from Our Lady was, "People are stabbing each other in the back with words, but if they begin praying the rosary, within 6 months you will see the spirit of this church change." Mary Constancio said it was then that Our Lady asked the church to start praying the rosary on Monday nights with her. Early Tuesday morning, March 1st at 2:30 a.m., Our Lady came and visited Mary Constancio at her home - she saw her as Our Lady of Guadalupe. Awakening from her sleep, Mary Constancio grabbed a notebook and wrote the following message: "Go and tell your priest and go and tell your bishop that Mary, your Mother, has come to give a message: that they should spread her word throughout radio, throughout television, throughout the newspaper, throughout the pulpit, throughout the world... That the world must hear the good news that my Son, Jesus, has come to keep his promise: that I have come for my people. "Please, I plead with you, my children, do not wait any longer for a sign. Do not wait, for the Sign has come. The Sign will come again in glory. I hurt to see so many, so many of you waiting--you children, you young people, you married couples, you blessed old, you poor and rich, waiting for a sign with which to believe, with which to come closer to my Son. Do not wait any longer. This is your sign upon hearing this word." Page 6

7 According to her husband, Henry Constancio, she was so excited that she wanted to go tell the bishop right at that moment. Her husband, somewhat disturbed by being so suddenly awakened, told her to go back to sleep and let him, as well as the bishop, sleep until morning. Later that day, Mary Constancio searched out her parish pastor, Father Joseph James, to tell him the message and to get his help to see the Bishop. Much calmer than Mary Constancio, Father James convinced Mary that they needed to make an appointment with Bishop's office. Shortly thereafter, during the Monday night rosary devotions, Mary Constancio, Mike Slate, and Theresa Fleischman (formerly Theresa Werner) would write down messages from the Blessed Mother, who came under the title of the "Queen of Mercy". Since the majority of the 1998 messages were received while the rosary was being said on Monday nights, these messages became known as the "Rosary Messages." The Monday night rosaries continued with more people showing up, little by little, each week. But one Monday night, a man from Dallas came and received a miraculous healing. He went back to Dallas to tell everyone and soon the news broke over local and then national media. By the end of July almost 1,000 persons would gather each Monday to participate at the Monday evening devotions. When Mary Constancio had to miss one of the Monday night devotions in April, 1988, the Blessed Mother told her that Theresa Fleischman (formerly Theresa Werner) would receive messages in her absence. Mike Slate s was also surprised for he too received some messages along with Theresa. On several more Monday night rosaries all three persons continued to receive messages at the St. John Neumann chapel. As word spread of the unusual happenings at St. John Neumann, attendance increased at the Monday night devotions. Healings were claimed by many, not just physical, but emotional, spiritual and mental healings as well. The chapel was no longer big enough to hold all the people who came. The main church had to be used, and soon that was filled to capacity and overflowing. On June 27, 1988 was the first invitation from the Blessed Mother to come to the Feast of the Assumption in 1988: "My dear children, the celebration of my Assumption into heaven is approaching quickly. My children, I give you a special invitation to be here; and I ask that you give an invitation to others to join you." The opening of the public media provided the means for the invitation of to be quickly sent out across the country. It was reported that over 20,000 pilgrims, coming from all parts of the country, came to Saint John Neumann parish to celebrate that 1988 Feast of the Assumption mass. (see aerial photo of August 15, 1988 event). Page 7

8 Aerial View; Feast of the Assumption, 1988 of Saint John Neumann Church and some of the 20,000 pilgrims showed up, coming from all parts of the country. During 1988 Theresa Fleischman received some messages from the Blessed Mother, but most of her messages came from Jesus and God the Father: these messages are not published in this book. On December 19, 1988 the Queen of Mercy gave Mike Slate the following message during the Rosary Messages: My dear children thank you for being with me this evening. This is a very special evening for me, for this night marks the last time that I will be coming to you...the last night that I will be giving you messages from this church. After that night Mike Slate and Theresa Fleischman no longer received messages from the Queen of Mercy and no more messages were received at Saint John Neumann s Monday night rosary. However Mary Constancio continued to receive messages up to the time of the publication. Also during 1988, this group of locutionists along with Pastor Father Joseph James also held many other prayerful conversations with Our Lady receiving blessings. Fifteen other messages from the Queen of Mercy were given and have been added to this book. In 1989 Henry and Mary Constancio formed the Ambassadors of the Flame of Mercy as an charitable organization to bring the Love of God the Father, the healing of God the Son, and the empowerment of God the Holy Spirit into action, with the Blessed Mother as its role model. Each member is call to live daily the message of Mercy: love and forgiveness in action. The majority of messages after 1988 were given on three dates: every February 28 (the anniversary of the 1st message), every Feast of the Assumption, August 15, and on every Page 8

9 October 14 (a date which the Blessed Mother allow Mary Constancio to pick). A wonderful blessing also occurred when the Ambassadors of the Flame of Mercy held their first Macho Men of God retreat on August 30, 1997 and unexpectedly Mary Constancio came in to the retreat and said the Blessed Mother, the Queen of Mercy had come to bless us. She gave the members of the Ambassadors of the Flame of Mercy this message: The men s retreat is so much in the will of God that I wish you to hold it every three months, and I will come. The Ambassadors of the Flame of Mercy Ministry faithfully holds a men s retreat every 3 months and the Queen of Mercy keeping her promise continues to come and give words of encouragement to her sons and to the world. On August 15, 2005 Our Lady said, I have left you many love letters in my messages. At the time of this publication Queen of Mercy was still give us, her children, love letters. God willing the ministers here at the Ambassadors of the Flame of Mercy will continue to update this book with her messages of wisdom, encouragement, and mercy. Queen of Mercy, pray for us. Howard A.

10 THE MESSAGES OF MERCY February 28, "People are stabbing each other in the back with words, but if they begin praying the rosary, within 6 months you will see the spirit of this church change." March 1, Go and tell your priest and go and tell your bishop that Mary, your Mother, has come to give a message: that they should spread her word throughout radio, throughout television, throughout the newspaper, throughout the pulpit, throughout the world...to come and say the rosary with me on Monday nights. That those who come will be blessed, will be full of grace, will become closer to my Son, Jesus. That the world must hear the good news that my Son, Jesus, has come to keep his promise. That I have come for my people. Please, I plead with you my children; do not wait any longer for a sign. Do not wait, for the Sign has come. The Sign will come again in glory. I hurt to see so many, so many of you waiting--you children, you young people, you married couples, you blessed old, you poor and rich, waiting for a sign with which to believe, with which to come closer to my Son. Do not wait any longer. This is your sign upon hearing this word. March 14, Why do you not take me seriously? Why do you not invite others to come? It gives me great sorrow that you have not done so. Do you not think that I am here through the power of God, our Father, and through the love of my Son, Jesus? Do not be afraid for I am with you. Know that your Father in heaven has come unto this lowly church for His glory and for the salvation of others. Do not think that this is for you, but for the world. There's a harvest that is ready and waiting. I plead with you again: do not wait. For at this moment my children, whom I love as much as I love you, are crying for your help, your prayers. The Lord, my Son, is wanting to build a glorious Church here on earth. Throughout the centuries, there have been a few, and you have been blessed and chosen to bring others to salvation. Know, my children, my beloved, that I am asking of my Son a new and overwhelming and life-changing spirit to come and set you free. Do not reject what I am invoking on you. Know, my children, that all the angels and saints are at your doorstep to help you. My Son is ready and waiting for your prayers and your heart. I have so much to tell you...so much love to give you. Thank you, my children, for being here to hear me and for your faith and love. 6 Tbis first private revelation was give at St. John Neumann chapel 7 Given to Mary Constancio in her home at 2:30 a.m. 8 The First Rosary Message.

11 March 21, 1988 Rejoice, my children, for you have been chosen! You lowly children of God have already been blessed. Rejoice, for our Father in heaven has smiled on your church! Protect your blessed church with prayer to reach our Father's ears. For I have cleared the path that your prayers may be heard. I will help you to be faithful to prayer, faithful to communion, faithful to confession. For the grace that our Father has given me I will give freely to you. My children, at this time in which my Son is remembered--when He was crucified for you--i remember the great pain that He felt and the great pain that I had when I saw him agonizing...saw Him until the last hour of His life. Remember, my children, and keep it holy. For where you go my holy Son will go with you, if you allow Him. Please, my children, I plead with you again to stop and forgive rather than to stop and condemn...for my Son condemns no one. My Son wants to bless you and give His gift of Himself to you. My children, how much I want you to know the importance of prayer, of communion, of penance and--i add one more--of fasting. I do not ask this for my glory, but for my son's glory. Thank you, my children, for coming to be with me. Please bring others with you. 9 My dear, blessed friend, I say to you not to worry any more about your parish's finances. For our Father in heaven has heard our prayers for your finances and there are other harvesters of your church that will take care of this. Your concern--and your whole heart--is to be totally concerned for your sheep and their conversion. You are correct in asking your sheep for their tithe--their full tithe--but not to the point of worrying about the finances of the church; for this church has been redeemed and claimed by our Father, and He shall take care of it. Yes, my friend, my son, I smile on you; for you have blessed me with your love, and for bringing others to me. March 28, 1988 My dearly beloved sons and daughters, thank you again for being here. There is so much to tell you, especially today. For my Son and all in heaven, this is a special week...for all remember my Son's crucifixion, His hours of agony. My children do not fall asleep. Be ready and prepared, for He has come to make a covenant with all those who will accept Him. At this moment many of your own people are praying for your very soul. At this moment the angels and saints are cheering you on...are praying for you...are asking mercy for you and your brothers and sisters. My children, that you may know the love I have for you is eternal, my love for you is great, that you may know the blessings of our Father have been asked for you...blessings of every sort will be bestowed, blessings that you know that only I can ask for you. You honor me greatly with your prayers...which makes my Son smile, for you have also accepted me as you Mother. I thank all of those who are praying the three rosaries a day, for they are the very essence of your church's salvation...the very essence of peace for your church. Do not 9 Message for Monsignor Joseph W. James Page 11

12 forget that the foundation of your church and the foundation of your peace and the foundation of your salvation is my Son. Do not reject Him. Do not reject Him again for He is handing Himself over to you again. He is entrusting in your hands His hands, His heart. Treat tenderly that which He gives you, that which He entrusts to you. He is calling you to take care and love those close to you. Pray for them. Fast for them. Love them as He has loved you. Do not forget. Do not put off praying and fasting for another day...for someone else to do; for this is the grace that my Son is going to give you tonight. Go with my love. Go with my heart. April 4, 1988 Blessed children of God, thank you for being here tonight. Listen, for my heart is burning with love for you. For all of my children...especially those who are lost...those who cannot find their way home. Go, my children, and make apostles of all nations. Do not be afraid, for the Holy Spirit will go before your church; your most blessed church. Open your eyes, open your hearts to receive that which I have asked for you. Every gift has been given; every blessing has been bestowed for the glory of God, our Father, for my Son's glory, who sits at the right hand of our Creator...of our King of kings. Rejoice and leap for joy, for the windows of heaven have been opened for your families! For all those who hear and believe will also be blessed. The whole of the country, the whole of the nation shall hear of the great love that your church, your families, will show. Be it known today that my love will spread even to those who are not here. My dearest Son has died for your sins so that you may also have a place in the kingdom with us. Please, my children rejoice and be glad, for it is only in the asking that you shall receive. Pray for those who have not yet asked. Pray that the love my Son has for me and you will be the love that reigns in your heart above all else. Ask for this love that you might receive. I smile today because so many of you have responded to my call to be holy, my call of praying for those whom my Son has entrusted to you. Beware, my children, of the lion that seeks to devour. But do not despair, for a legion of angels from heaven has been sent for your protection. Continue to pray. Continue to fast. Continue to accept my Son's Body and Blood which was shed for you. Continue to reconcile with your brothers and sisters. Judgment shall be judged on how you loved. And those who want answers...continue to ask. To ask through prayers, for your prayers shall be answered. I love you, my children; you who are so close to my heart. Continue to seek for my intercession, for my Son is waiting to answer your prayers. But ask and pray with prayers and petitions of truth, for He sees your heart and knows. For when you ask in truth, the lights shall be shown. April 11, 1988 My dearly beloved children, I have a smile on my face to see so many of you together. Please, my children remember to smile...for this is the smile of Jesus--which brings comfort, which brings hope and joy to those who have none. I have been sent to you to speak to you--to each one of you--to each one of your hearts. So listen! Listen! For I have a message for each one of you. Listen to your hearts, for I Page 12

13 am speaking through my heart. My heart says, "Love one another, forgive one another, pray for one another, fast for one another." I love you all so much that our Father in heaven has allowed me to visit you to pray and intercede for you in a special way: a way in which only I can, through the grace of my Son, Jesus. Hold my Son at your right arm, just as He sits at the right hand of our Father. For He alone is the Holy One, He alone has died so that you may see the kingdom and be with us. Forgive, my children, forgive, for no faster can you reach my Son's ears. My dear children...so beautiful, so holy. For when you say, "yes" to forgiveness...then you all can be holy as I am holy. No greater love can you offer one another than through repentance...through forgiveness. It would please me, my children, if you could enjoy the entire rosary with me. For my heart rejoices when I hear the unity of prayer...for I know you are praying to become closer to my Son. No greater joy is there than that. Thank you, children, for being here, for taking the time to believe. Continue to pray, my children, for this parish--for your parish--that God's glory may be shown, that His salvation may be encountered by all who come, by all who hear. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations. Remember...I am with you 10 My children--all of those who are sorrowful and without hope--know that your prayers have been heard. For you have done what I have called you to do. Rejoice, for our Lord's mercy is great! Thank you, my children, for your ears...for your hearts. For they are fragile, but strong with my Son's strength. So breathe your last breath of sorrow...and breathe with praises in your heart. April 18, My beloved children, it moves me deeply to see the faithful gather before me...to give unto me homage so that I may bless them and bring them blessings from my Son, Jesus Christ. My dear children continue your prayers, your love, your faithfulness unto me. Many blessings will be bestowed unto those who continue their faithfulness and hope. Know that my love goes with you unto all times of the earth. Your Heavenly Father knows of all your needs and He shall bring to pass all that is to be. Go in my love, my dear ones, always. My heart goes out to those in grief. Know that I will be with you in all your times of need...as in my time of grief, when my Son was crucified. My heart was grieved deeply. So it is with those lost and seeking. Continue to pray for those lost and searching. Continue your fervent prayers for all the world and for all its people. Theresa Fleischman, Messenger 10 Given during the sorrowful mysteries 11 PLEASE NOTE: Mary Constancio helped lead a Healing Weekend for two parishes in Washington, D.C., April Before leaving, she indicated a conviction that Theresa Fleischman would receive the messages at Saint John Neumann Church during that time. She did receive the following messages. They were confirmed by Mike Slate who had received the same word. Later, Mike also began to receive separate messages. Page 13

14 12 My children, you are apostles of my church. Blessed are you who respond to our Father's call. Blessed are you who respond when you are called. Blessed are you who accept without seeing, for you shall see the glory of God. Sons of the Father, you shall be made worthy of the promises of Christ. There is much work to do. Do not despair for all the path has been carved and your names have been installed in the palm of our Father's hand. Do not be surprised when you are called, for our Father chooses carefully. He chooses...and He has chosen your church to be the mold. Love shall be the center of the mold. Love shall prevail above all else...for love casts out all fear, love casts out all that does not belong to this church. For my Son alone is the Holy One. For my Son has destined your nation--diocese--to be holy as He is holy. Peace be with you! Thank you, my children, for being here tonight. April 25, 1988 My beloved children, my heart calls to those in need. My heart goes out to those who are lost and searching. Continue your prayers. Continue your hopes in me and your Heavenly Father. He brings all to pass that is to be. Why, why do you continue to disbelieve? Where is your faith? How can I bring unto you blessings from above when here I find so few among you? My dear little ones continue to pray and bring others with you! You faithful few, how pleased I am with thee! Your prayers shall be answered. Your blessings will be added up and stored in the memory of the Everlasting Father. Only through my Son shall you find peace in your lives and in all your undertakings. Be at peace, my children, and fear not the evil one. Go in my love and in my peace. Theresa Fleischman, Messenger 13 Dear children, beloved of mine, what I desire from you is obedience: Obedience to say the rosary; Obedience for receiving all the graces given to you. Remember that you cannot receive everlasting joy if it were not for my Son. My Son is so greatly disturbed, for so many have not been obedient to our Father's Commands. His Commands are those of freedom: Freedom to worship Him and give Him glory. What gains a man if he is free in this world but a slave to his heart and to sin? My children, pray as I ask: PRAYER FOR MERCY "Holy Father you who art in heaven, be merciful to us, your servants, who are also sons and daughters of all that is promised to those who keep his commandments. Be merciful to those who do not. "We pray thee that, through our petitions and prayers, your love may shine over all of those for whom we pray...that our petitions may be made worthy by your Son, Jesus' blood and covenant with us. "We pray for this through the most Sacred Hearts of Jesus and our Mother. Amen." 12 Given In Washington, D.C 13 Given In Washington, D.C Page 14

15 May 2, 1988 I do hear thy prayers. I do see thy tears. My love is with thee always unto the ends of time. Yes, my Son's most holy Heart, most holy Blood, for this He saith unto thee again, "For My yoke be upon thy shoulders for it is light of burden." "Rejoice! Rejoice all peoples! Rejoice! Thy heart no longer weepest for there is truly a Savior: One victorious over death. Come unto Me all who are weeping. Come unto Me all who are weary. Find rest within My most Sacred Heart, most Sacred Blood. For with Me thou shall find everlasting life." "Behold! Behold thy Savior waitest for thee. Fear not, for I am with thee for all the ends of the earth. Glory! Hosanna unto all people! Upon all tongues let My Name resound!" Jesus. Jesus. Jesus. My beloved Son Jesus. Theresa Fleischman, Messenger My blessed and beloved children, I come here again to remind you of the love I have for you. It gives me great joy to see you...to see that your faith will grow for believing: Believing that I have come to bless you so that you may come close to my Son. This week, my children, remember to show homage unto me by saying the rosary daily-- for this brings graces that only I can bring. My Son wants to bring joy and peace for your families, for this peace is eternal. My children, although it brings me joy that you are here, it does bring me sorrow to know that there are still so many of my children who will not see the kingdom of our Father if you do not pray for them. Know that my promises are not in vain and are for the glorification of God, our Father, Who knows your heart and knows your sin...but Who also knows your love. Look, my children, into your hearts. Look to see if God is your Father Whom you glorify, whom you honor and glorify above all else in this world. My children keep inviting others to come with you; for my promise is that of love...and not without grace to grace you with. Come all you who are sick, all who are in sorrow. For your sorrow will only be for a little while. Know that all is taken care of by our Father Who hears your prayers...who knows your hearts and what you need. Continue to pray the rosary. Continue to fast. May the peace of Almighty God; may the peace that my Son gives you, and may the peace that I offer be with you. My children, go in peace for I go before you always. That is my promise to you! Look for me, for I am there. Look for me, for I have something for all those who seek my graces. 14 My children, my messages are of great urging, for no one knows the hour or the day. There is so much to tell you. So much! So pray, that what I have given you may be engraved in your hearts forever! For I do come with strength and power given only by our Father in heaven. Thank you for being here tonight. 14 Given during the sorrowful mysteries Page 15

16 May 8, 1988 This is what Mary wants us to recite in the Hail Mary ; the words of the Blessed Virgin's "Ave Maria." HAIL MARY (Queen of Mercy Version) "Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners. Send forth the grace of your flame of love to all mankind, now and in the hour of our death. Amen." The Virgin Mary is asking and calling to all of us to keep Thursdays and Fridays as days of special graces, to regard them as days of atonement of her Divine Son. The way to achieve this is with the holy hour of the family. During this hour of reconciliation, you should say various prayers (the rosary, for example) and sing hymns. Begin the worship by making the "Sign of the Cross" five times in view of my Son's five holy Wounds. Reflect on Jesus' shoulder wound which was his most grievous wound...which tore His flesh and bared His bone. Carry His cross! Finish it the same way, five "Signs of the Cross." Continue the worship with spiritual readings. Light a candle in remembrance of my promise. Urgent! Keep a holy hour in your family. Thursdays and Fridays should be special days of grace. On these days, make special reparation to my Divine Son. Visit the Blessed Sacrament. The hour could be spent filled with singing of hymns, meditation, various prayers and the rosary. Begin adoration with His five holy Wounds shoulder. Make the Sign of the Cross five times. If there are many in reconciliation, I, the Blessed Mother, will be satisfied with as little as five minutes per person. The deeper the prayer, the more Satan will be blinded! Soon! Do these things for me! 15 Our Blessed Mother asks of all of us: Try to hold these reconciliation sessions in twos or threes because where two or three meet in the Name of my Son, He will be there; more if possible. You should also try to make a practice during the day of crossing yourselves five times, one after the other, while offering yourselves into the mercy of the Lord. This will bring you nearer the Eternal Father and your heart will be filled with grace. Start this as soon as possible. Urgent, please! Mary is asking it from all of us to show our love and devotion, beginning the 12th and 13th of May and continuing from then on! Messages to parents, mothers and fathers, from our Lord Jesus' Mother: Jesus said, "Let it be known to others, my child, that without faith and trust no other virtue can take root in you. It is the foundation of the holy cause for which we prepare ourselves. And begin making this known very soon." All of you mothers who bring pleasure to My Heart, the merit of your work is no less than the deeds of the priest in the highest office. You parents, you mothers, understand the sublime vocation I entrusted to you. You are destined to populate My Kingdom. From your hearts, from your bosoms, every step of My Church comes forth. My kingdom grows according to how you mothers take care of the created souls. You have 15 From Our Lord Jesus Christ. Page 16

17 the greatest responsible work. This work I laid in your hands to lead the multitude of souls to salvation. To this, your responsible work, I give my special blessing." Theresa Fleischman, Messenger 16 May 9, 1988 Listen, my children, with ears opened to hear that which only your hearts can see! Know, my children that I can see that sorrow with which you suffer, that sorrow with which you rejoice. For only through my Son can you experience any joy at all. My children, my whole purpose in blessing your church is to bring joy, to bring peace, to bring love, to bring mercy from God, our Almighty Father. I ask you again to reach into the very depths of your soul and seek to whom you give glory, to whom you give homage. The time is coming when I will shine my eyes on all those who believe. The time is coming when you shall see my eyes. Be prepared, my children, for our Father has done great things for you and much more will He do. How much must I plead with you to bring others with you? I say again to spread my message: My message of mercy, my message of hope for all those who have none. Fight the enemy, my children with weapons that I have already sent you: prayer, fasting, communion and reconciliation. Pray with petitions and prayers of all sorts, especially those prayers that have been inspired by the love of my Son, Jesus. Continue to ask the Lord for mercy every day, every moment, for great is our Father's mercy. Great is His compassion, and unending is His love. I plead with you again: bring your families; bring those whom I send you to bring for they are all my children. Blessed are they who desire to please my Son, those who desire to please our Almighty Father who rules over His people with love and mercy. Please bring others with you. Thank you for being here tonight. Now take this message to all who believe - even to those who do not, that they may believe. This is my love letter to you. May all the Fruits of the Holy Spirit be among you. May the fruit of all women's wombs here tonight be blessed to bring forth the peace of the world. 17 My children, this month is a special month in which you take time to give me homage. Take time this month also to treat others with that special love and tender compassion and concern which I also give you. Do not be too busy to take time to pray. To love! My dear children, thank you for being here tonight. I prayed for you all today that you would have the strength and courage to be here. I know that many of you had many trials today. Be strong, my children. My Son needs you. Pray for strength and perseverance. You have been called to continue the work which He started here on earth. My children be aware that you will be under attack, that you will be tempted. But remember that my Son and I are praying for you. And when you feel tempted or are aware of the evil one, pray to my Son for strength, for He will not forsake you. Go with my peace and my love, my children. Mike Slate, Messenger 16 This is the last known message given to Theresa Fleischman by the Queen of Mercy 17 Given during the sorrowful mysteries Page 17

18 May 16, 1988 My dear blessed sons and daughters of God, you who have responded to my call will be blessed by God Himself. My Son has seen your hearts and has announced to our Father that He desires this church to be glorified for our Father's sake. For glory, all glory belongs to our Father of heaven and of earth. He is to be glorified by every tongue. For one who is not of the Lord cannot give glory to my Son, Jesus. For He alone has brought salvation to all nations and has destined this nation to be God's. Pray, my children pray for the conversion of hearts. Pray for the Lord to give His breath of life into each soul. Be strong for I give you strength...love, for I give you love...forgive, for my Son forgives all who ask for forgiveness. My children, the time is coming soon when my disciples will blow the trumpet to proclaim that which I desire you to know. You are my reason for being here for I hear the cries, I see the agony, I see the promise you have made my Son. I have come to make all things possible for I am the Mother of God. I am the Queen of Mercy. Call to me, all those who desire mercy. Call to me for I am there. You must be responsible for bringing your families to God, for bringing them under my protection. Pray, pray, pray. Thank you for being here tonight. 18 I shall come through the clouds--like a storm that cannot be consoled, but gentle as a dove. I come only to set my people free...that all may give glory to God and all may be with me in heaven. It gives my Son great sorrow to see you at the teeth of the one who seeks to devour. I have come to pull you out of Satan's hands. To set you free. Thank you, my children for being here tonight. My dear children, why do you continue to pierce my soul? I have come to show you that way to salvation...to everlasting joy. My children, you must repent. You must fast. You must pray. And you must love your brothers and sisters. My dear children, I beg you to take advantage of the Sacraments of Penance and Holy Communion. You need to go to confession regularly--to make good confessions. My Son knows all your sins already; you are not hiding anything from Him when you fail to confess all your sins. My children confess them. Get rid of them and then sin no more. I also beg you to receive communion as often as possible. To receive communion when you are in the state of grace, for no better gift can my Son give you than His very Body and Blood. The graces that come with this are beyond your understanding. You must believe my Son is truly present. When you receive communion faithfully, His Body and Blood become one with you. Rejoice, my children! What greater gift could you have? Go with my peace and love. Love and forgiveness. My children, you must forgive each other. Do not hold grudges. Forgive as my Son forgives. Don't let Satan have a hold on you. My children, time is short. Please heed my warning: turn from sin and to my Son. Mike Slate, Messenger 18 Given during the sorrowful mysteries Page 18

19 May 23, 1988 Beloved children of God, remember that you are His children. You are the reason for my coming here. Do not despair. And let your disbelief be gone for I come through the force of love...through the grace of the Holy Spirit...through the power of God. In exactly this way will your prayers be answered. It gives me great joy to see you receiving the Life and Death and Resurrection of my Son. For it is through Him that you will be saved. It is through your cleansed and forgiving hearts that you shall be with me in paradise. Know, my children that your prayers are constantly knocking at the doors and gateway to heaven. Remember also to praise and give glory to God, for in this way do the angels of heaven praise our Father. Praising is music to our Father's ears...and He does not hear much music from you. Be faithful to prayer. Be faithful to me through your daily recitation of the rosary. Be on guard, for there is one that wishes to destroy you and your families. So pray. Pray. Pray for your families through all forms of prayer, for all will be heard. Be humble of heart and meek...as my Son was meek when He gave Himself over to be crucified for you. You, too, must be meek when trials and tribulations come. For through them that is your strength. For your sorrow will turn to joy. May the Lord our God smile on your smile, and shine His Heart that you may see Who He is and the love He has for you. Forgive, my children. Forgive and the light from His Heart will overshadow and take rest in your heart. My children, it gives me joy to see your struggles to please me through your fasting, through your prayers, through your forgiveness of your brothers and sisters. For my grace continues to give you strength for obedience. My Children, my prayers for you are that you will be with me to praise our Father together. Thank you for being here tonight. My dear children, my heart is full of joy to see you here and receiving the Body and Blood of my Son. We are all rejoicing with you. My children, I love you so much. I want you to have eternal happiness. I want you to be with us in heaven where we will share in the joys of my Son and our Father. My children, the way to eternal happiness is not difficult. If you believe and trust, follow the Commands of my Lord. Love the Lord your God with your whole heart, your whole soul and your whole mind, and love your neighbor as yourself. It is necessary, my children, to love everyone...to show kindness and mercy to all. Listen, my children, to the wind. Listen for the angels. Listen for the heavenly choir. Keep your hearts pure and open to my love and that of my beloved Son. I love you, my dear children. 19 My dear children, you must show love and kindness to your priest. He was chosen by my Son to shepherd this church. He has been chosen to lead you to eternal life. He has been given a great responsibility. And he has my prayers and special graces. But you, my children, also have a great responsibility. You must help him to help you. Pray for him. Love him. 19 Given during the sorrowful mysteries Page 19

20 My children, I want this church to become like one family. I want you to treat each other as brothers and sisters. This is not a difficult or impossible task. Pray and fast for the grace to live together in peace. And then trust in the love of my Son. Go with my peace and my love. Mike Slate, Messenger May 30, 1988 My children listen and hear the cries of those who cannot proclaim the goodness of the Lord. The darkness of the world has so many of your brothers and sisters in bondage, so many are caught by the snares of sin...the empty lies that only Satan has offered. Ask for my Son's love, for my Son's grace, for through this, and only this, can your brothers and sisters be freed from the chains of their hearts. I love you, my children, with the love that our Father in heaven has given me, the love that the Son has for you. So much love that He has for you that He laid down His life for your life, death and resurrection. I have chosen you to be a light which will give life, which will give life to the full. There is so much to say and much to love...and only when you give love can you receive it in return...and tenfold. You have come to believe, come because my Son has called you to be here. My Son's call to you is that call which can set you free...free to give glory to God here on earth and in heaven with us. My children go and give comfort. Go and show mercy. For it is through your comfort and mercy that you shall bring your loved ones home. Be gentle. Be kind. Be ever ready to forgive. Be ever willing to love. And be wise. Only through my Son can you have wisdom, so do not forget to receive Him often. Your church is truly blessed, and you do not take it to your heart. Our Father holds it in His bosom as a mother takes her child to love, to correct, to forgive. Children, our Father knows all and sees all. Only those who deceive themselves think otherwise. Take all that I am entrusting to you and entrust it to someone else. For I am with you, ready to show mercy, ready to enter into the hearts of those who accept. My children, do not tremble when the enemy roars, for the angels are with you. My Son, Jesus, is there at your beckoning call, ready to bless you, ready to comfort and love you all the days of your life and eternity. There is a great sign coming to show you the great favor I have for you. But this favor is not for you alone. This is for the world. Thank you, my children, my children who seek to comfort me and my Son. My children, thank you for being here tonight. My children, confusion comes through lack of prayer. Pray that peace and joy may fill your hearts. Pray that you may be faithful to prayer. For in asking is when the Lord can answer your prayer. Thank you, my children, for being here tonight. Do not forget your neighbor. Bring him with you. My dear children rejoice; you have found favor with the Lord. My children, I want to tell you how happy I am when families join together in prayer. My Son gives His blessing when families come together and pray for each other. Your family will be richly blessed and brought closer together. Page 20

21 My children, I have told you of the great power of prayer. But when families pray together, the power is multiplied. My dear children, I also want you to pray daily for the souls in purgatory. Fast for them. Pray for them. For when they are released and in the presence of our Father, they will pray for you. My children, I have known great pain. I know what it is to suffer, for I have suffered greatly. But, my child, I also know the great joy knowing my Son. My dear ones bring Him your pains, your sorrows. He wants me to comfort you as I comforted Him. Ask in faith, my little ones. Go with my peace and love. Mike Slate, Messenger June 6, 1988 My children, today I ask you to give yourselves totally to God. Surrender all that you are so the Lord can bless all that you give Him. I will help you to surrender. For the Lord knows your heart and knows your sin. My children, why are you so ready to give yourselves to sin, so ready to condemn yourselves? Pray that the Lord may have mercy upon your heart. I am very sorrowful today for I see much sin. My children, you must be responsible for your own sinfulness. Only through prayer and surrender can that sin be offered to God that He may forgive and wipe it from your heart forever. The Almighty Hand of God has destined this century to be His, but you must be ready to accept Him, love Him. He has sent His only Son to be destroyed by your own kind, but merciful is He. He is merciful, our Father of heaven and earth. A great sign will come unto thy church, proclaiming that "Jesus Christ is Lord of all...that Jesus Christ is your only way of salvation unto me." It is right that you give unto God all glory and honor, for so many forget even to honor those in authority over you. For God knows all and gives power over you unto those he chooses. Show homage unto me, my children, by loving one another...by forgiving one another. Be ever so patient, waiting on the hand of the Lord to bless you and show you His Way and His Will. Do not be afraid to ask for patience, for patience is a grace from our Almighty Father which brings you closer to salvation. Remember, I am with you. I am only a prayer away. Continue to pray for reparation of my Immaculate Heart and the Sorrowful Heart of Jesus, for there is much sorrow in our kingdom today. Continue to console us with your prayers and with your love for your brothers and sisters. Thank you, my children, for being here tonight. My dear children, I have come to set your hearts on fire with the love of my Son. My dear ones join your hearts with ours. Become one with my Son. My Son lived in this world also. He knew temptation. He knew fear. He knew betrayal. He knew love. My children call out to Him. Share the innermost secrets of your hearts. We can understand. We can help. We can console. My dear children, it is very important that you pray daily. Quantity is not important, just pray with your heart. Talk to my Son. And then listen to Him. Page 21
