Dear friends, let us call upon the Virgin Mary, whom my predecessor, Blessed John Paul II defined as a “Eucharistic woman” (Ecclesia de Eucharistia, 53-58). In her school our life too becomes fully “Eucharistic,” open to God and to others, able to transform evil into good by the power of love, which fosters unity, communion, fraternity. Pope Benedict XVI, June 26, 2011
Dear children! Also today I call you to prayer. Little children, believe that by simple prayer miracles can be worked. Through your prayer you open your heart to God and He works miracles in your life. By looking at the fruits, your heart fills with joy and gratitude to God for everything He does in your life and, through you, also to others. Pray and believe little children, God gives you graces and you do not see them. Pray and you will see them. May your day be filled with prayer and thanksgiving for everything that God gives you. Thank you for having responded to my call. Medjugorje message, October 25, 2002
