Public Message from Our Lady of Emmitsburg to the World Through Gianna Talone-Sullivan April 3, 1997

My dear little children, praised be Jesus!

Little ones, every day of your life is part of a Lenten season.

Easter has arrived, and yet Lent has once again commenced.

Immerse yourself into the most compassionate Heart of your Savior Jesus, Who desires you to partake in His Most Divine Life.

The most important virtue to participating in His Life is love.

Each Lenten day immersed in His precious Life must consist of love.

The meaning of Lent is Love and Joy.

It is the fulfillment of the Scripture. The Lenten season should not be viewed as a time of hardship, but as a time of joy to share in the Love of Jesus.

This is why I say to you that another Lenten season has just begun.

Each day is another opportunity for you to unite yourself to the Heart of Jesus’ Mercy, suffering and Love.

He is your Redeemer, and your sins have been vindicated.

I love you, little ones, and rejoice with you and for you in your Risen Savior.

Be strong; and come, embrace His merciful Love.

Look beyond your hardships and needs and experience the love Jesus has for you, a love to die for.

I take your petitions to my Son.

Peace to you.

Thank you for responding to my call.

AD DEUM.
