Public Message from Our Lady of Emmitsburg to the World Through Gianna Talone-Sullivan March 16, 2000

My dear little children, praised be Jesus!

There is so much suffering from disease in the world today, little ones, especially in those who suffer from the AIDS epidemic.

The family unit is the victim of such suffering.

Precious children are suffering, and mothers feel they cannot protect them.

Mothers are suffering, and children feel abandoned and alone.

Fathers are suffering from the loss of interior strength and ability to save their families.

Sons and daughters are suffering from the effects of rejection by society.

Satan would like to destroy the family unit through deception in the power of free choice, freedom and gender, and eliminate the role of woman as mother completely.

Only a woman can bear children, and the role of a mother can be filled only by a woman because she brings forth life.

The AIDS epidemic is a direct attack on the family unit, but God in His Mercy shall prevail.

Many people may find it difficult to connect God’s Mercy to AIDS, and many may only see His Mercy towards the precious souls who suffer from this disease; but truly the effect of this devastating virus is an act of God’s Mercy on the entire human race.

It is a reflection of the effect of sin on each human soul and portrays the struggle which occurs when the precious gift of life is denied from its inception.

It is an act of God’s Mercy, little ones, not an act of punishment.

To deny this truth would only spurn God’s Mercy.

Peace to you.

I bless you in His Holy Name, and I take your petitions to His merciful heart.

Thank you for listening.

Save the family by returning the dignity of motherhood to its proper place.

Save humanity.

Thank you for responding to my call.

AD DEUM.
