“Children, as you prepare for the coming of the celebration of Easter, let faith be the foundation of your joy. Pray to Mary, Protectress of the Faith and Refuge of Holy Love for assistance in your Eastertide* celebration. All the grief and sadness of Good Friday was gone on Easter morning. The atmosphere was quiet and calm. Silence was in the air instead of the chaos and noise of Good Friday. Allow your preparation to be a confident preparation for the day of joy that lies ahead.”
“Meditate on the grief of My Son’s Passion and Death, but with an eye towards the joy that approaches. Be solemn in your preparation, but steadfast in your faith as the day of joy moves closer. Faith must never settle on gloom but always on victory.”
