I  COME  WITH  MY  GIFTS  OF  PEACE  AND  JOY

Dear Paul, Rita and Friends,
Good morning! It was very warm yesterday so I decided to take for the
streams and try my luck before the season closes. I was pleasantly
surprised with my nice catch. Today it's overcast here and rain could
come at any time. My mother is still doing well and getting her strength
back. Thank you for your prayers.

Today is the anniversary of what happened in New York, Washington and in
Pennsylvania. I was with Jesus in prayer this morning. He spoke saying,
"Melvin, my friend, I love you. I remember with all of you the terrible
tragedy that happened on September 11, a year ago. My peace and love, I
give to all those who lost family and friends.

Melvin, I am Jesus with whom you spend time in prayer every morning. It
is my joy to speak to you and through you to all my friends. I wish to
talk to you all today about the Eucharist. Is there a more intimate way
to be with you than the Eucharist? I am truly present under the species
of bread and wine. I am there alive as the resurrected One. Through the
reception of the Eucharist, I come to live in your heart. I am there
truly present as your friend and Redeemer. The Eucharist was the gift of
myself to you all before my departure from this life. Now every priest,
duly ordained, may change the bread and wine into my body and blood
which means that I am there in the host and the chalice. My dear
brothers and sisters, I give myself to you in the Eucharist to become
your food in order to nourish your spirit and to change you into myself.
Come regularly even during the week to receive me in Holy Communion.
Prepare your heart well for my coming and if you have sinned, repent of
your sins in great sorrow. I desire to come to you for I love you. I
always come with my gifts of peace and joy. I bless you all."

It was on August 11, 2001, that Our Lady visited me crying. She told me
something terrible would happen and many people would die. When I opened
the TV on September 11 last year and saw those planes slam into the Twin
Towers and the large number of people killed, I knew that Our Lady had
referred to this event. Today the world is mourning again the innocent
victims who lost their lives a year ago.

Jesus speaks to us this morning about the Holy Eucharist. This sacrament
expresses the great love Jesus has for us. He instituted the Eucharist
in order to remain in a tangible way with us. He tells us that He is
truly present in the host and in the chalice. We are privileged to have
Jesus with us in this way and we can adore Him in this most blessed
Sacrament. Let us come to receive Him often for He desires it. Let us
prepare our heart well by receiving the sacrament of penance for the
remission of our sins. Let us pray for more holy priests to celebrate
the Holy Eucharist in all our churches.

I will leave early tomorrow morning for Dieppe, New Brunswick, to be the
guest of a group of people. I will celebrate Holy Mass with them and
give them a few talks. I hope to be back home tomorrow evening.

I was invited yesterday to Mabou, Cape Breton Island, to give a retreat
there on the first three days of November. I accepted the invitation. I
will give you more information as time goes on.

May the Lord give you all on this day of mourning His gift of peace.
 
Father Melvin
