Advent meditations...

We need look no further than the womb of Mary, Mother of God to understand the sanctity of human life in the womb from the moment of conception....
As we approach the coming of Emmanuel--He who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life I will be posting from Pro-Life Reflections for Every Day by Fr. Frank Pavone with the interior locutions received by Fr. Stefano Gobbi, MMP for further meditation.

Never again will there be in it an infant who lives but a few days...They will neither harm nor destroy on all My holy mountain. Isa. 65:20, 25
Reflection: Christ's coming heralds a new harmony in all of nature, including between mother and child.
Advent leads us to the Silent Night when the whole world finds joy in His birth, a joy no longer threatened by violence.
Prayer: Lord, may your birth shed protection on all about to be born, and as we work to end abortion, may we "wait in joyful hope for the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ."--Pro-life Reflections for Every Day, Fr. Frank Pavone (2009);www.priestsforlife.org

Comfort Amidst Mourning Notre Dame de Laus [May 30, 1993]

"This decisive time of the purification and the great tribulation is the time of the Holy Spirit. And so I renew again today my invitation to multiply the cenacles of prayer, which I have asked for, with such motherly insistence.
Let children come together in cenacles, because their innocent prayer, united to mine, has today a great power of intercession and reparation. From how many evils you have already been spared, because of the prayer of these little children of mine!
I want to gather young people together in cenacles, so that they may experience my motherly presence, the presence of a Mother who loves them, protects them from the great dangers to which they are exposed, and who leads them with gentle firmness, along the road of goodness, of love, of purity and of holiness.
The cenacles which I have asked of families are a precious gift to them, so that in them they may experience the joy of my presence, the comfort of my assistance, and the help offered against the grave evils which threaten their very existence. In these cenacles the Holy Spirit will come down to lead you to the second Pentecost.
It is necessary, above all in these last times, that the Church and all humanity be transformed into a continuous cenacle of prayer, made with me and through me. Then the Holy Spirit will come down as a comfort upon the mourning of your days, in which the great trial has already come.
