7th October 2008 (Prayer Day – Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary)
My dear children,
It is the faithful remnant who will be the stronghold and prayer support for the Bride of Christ. You have heard in Scripture that Jesus is the cornerstone of your faith. He is your stronghold, your firm foundation. He is your rock on which you must build your faith. You will not last unless you build your faith on strong foundations of self sacrifice and prayer. Many start with enthusiasm and a passion for God and then fall away when the first wind of discontent comes or they experience the difficulties of the storms of life. The trials and tests are an important part of your spiritual journey. You must be prepared to change and grow each moment of your journey. You must be disciplined in your faith. You must be tested and purified just the same as gold is purified in the furnace. Many are called but so few chosen because they do not have the endurance and strength to last the long distance. I thank you for your faithfulness in remaining committed for the longer journey. You have been told in Scriptures that Jesus is the vine and you the branches. Your Heavenly Father is the vine dresser. He must trim and prune you for you to bear good fruit which is lasting. Any branch which is dead must be cut away. I ask you to nourish your faith well by staying close to the heart of Jesus. Receive Jesus often in Holy Communion and let the union of your body, mind and soul be accomplished. Do not remain distant because you face difficulties. Keep Jesus at the centre of your life and allow Him to calm the storms which you experience. Trust Him and the love He has for you. I ask you to continue to pray my rosary and meditate on the mysteries and I will be your guiding star so you learn to know more fully the infinite love of your Heavenly Father given to you by His Son Jesus through the grace of the Holy Spirit.

7th October 2008 (Night Prayer)
My dear children,
Do not take lightly the power of the prayers of the rosary. Do not treat these prayers as a chore but understand the meaning of contemplating on each mystery. Better to say one rosary with feeling and thought than to recite many with no thought because you have a quota to fulfill. I ask you to accept the crown of roses offered to you to help defeat the rule of satan. This powerful prayer can change or mitigate events which are to happen. It can change the heart of the most hardened sinner. Pray in true humility for the conversion of your family and loved ones. Give to me your Heavenly Mother many roses to add to my crown. Look again at the formation of the rose. It starts as a small bud closed without any colour or perfume showing. Slowly the bud blossoms into a bright and beautiful fragrant flower. This is what I want all my children to aspire to. I ask you to never fear the path of purification. Blossom and bloom my little ones into a flower of inner beauty. Let the perfume you exude be the perfume of sanctity. Do not be afraid to also accept the thorns on your path of holiness. These thorns you bear help to purify your intentions. Remain silent with the thorns you receive and offer your cross as a self sacrifice for the conversion of many souls. The work is plentiful. Let your inner beauty shine out for all to see by the humble way you live your life. Do not bring attention to your good deeds. Give all the glory and thanks to your Heavenly Father as you journey towards your Heavenly inheritance – life eternal.
