MESSAGE FROM THE VIRGIN MARY IN MEDJUGORJE ON
JULY 25, 2010
"Dear children! Anew I call you to follow me
with joy. I desire to lead all of you to my Son, your Savior. You are
not aware that without Him you do not have joy and peace, nor a future
or eternal life. Therefore, little children, make good use of this time
of joyful prayer and surrender. Thank you for having responded to my
call."
