    Our Lady of Good Help

    Our Lady of Good Help: America’s First Approved Marian Apparition Cristy Murray and Father Perry Kenaston introduce the “Mary’s Message” podcast and pray a Hail Mary before discussing Our Lady of Good Help (also called Our Lady of Hope) in Champion (New Franken), Wisconsin, the first Marian apparition approved in the United States. They recount Bishop David L. Ricken’s December 8, 2010 declaration that the 1859 apparitions and locutions to Belgian immigrant Adele Brise were of supernatural character and worthy of belief. The episode summarizes Adele’s background, her encounters with a lady in white, and Mary’s message to pray for conversion, make a general confession, receive Communion for sinners, and teach catechism and the sacraments. They note reported miracles, especially the 1871 fire that spared the shrine grounds, ongoing pilgrimages, an annual August 15 procession, and close with prayers for peace and an invitation to subscribe and connect. 00:00 Welcome to Mary’s Message 00:35 Opening Prayer and Hail Mary 01:14 America’s First Approved Apparition 02:51 Who Was Adele Brise 04:50 First Two Apparitions 07:47 Mary’s Message and Mission 09:07 Miracles and the Great Fire 10:46 Shrine Legacy and Pilgrims 13:02 Reflections and Marian Invitation 15:04 Audience Q&A and Pilgrimage Talk 16:40 Peace Prayer and Podcast Updates 19:12 Closing Prayer and Sendoff Support the show 🎧 Subscribe, leave a 5-star review, and share this episode to help Mary’s message reach more hearts.

Father Perry recounts Maria Esperanza’s life: her childhood mystical experiences, marriage and seven children, and the apparitions at a farm near Caracas (Betania) beginning March 25, 1976, where Mary appeared 31 times calling for prayer and reconciliation amid reported phenomena, miracles, cures, and Eucharistic bleeding at Mass on Dec. 8, 1991. He notes episcopal approval in 1987 declaring the site sacred and the apparitions authentic.

They recount Lucia joining the Dorothean Sisters in 1925 and describe the December 10, 1925 apparition of Mary with the Child Jesus, Mary’s thorn-crowned heart, and the request for reparation through five consecutive First Saturdays: confession, Holy Communion, five decades of the Rosary, and 15 minutes meditating on the mysteries, with flexibility on timing and intention clarified in a February 15, 1926 encounter with Jesus. They list five offenses against Mary named in the message, note a 1929 confirmation at Tuy, and summarize Lucia’s later Fatima visits and death in 2005.

    A hug from Jesus

    Submitting to God’s Call: Vocations, Scripture Reflections, and Mary’s Example Cristy Marie and Father Perry Kenaston introduce “Mary’s Message – Leading Hearts to Jesus,” then pray for vocations to the priesthood and religious life. Father Perry reflects on the day’s readings: Jeremiah’s struggle with a difficult mission and eventual surrender to God; Paul’s call in Romans 12 to offer ourselves as a living sacrifice, be transformed, and conform to Christ rather than the world; and the Gospel where Jesus rebukes Peter as an obstacle to His mission, showing even the spiritual can err. He emphasizes accepting the cross, total surrender, and looking to Mary as the model of conformity to Christ. He closes with an encouraging poem and an invitation to seek God’s comfort like a child seeking a hug. The episode ends with the Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be, a blessing, and a request to subscribe, review, share, and visit their website for resources and contacting Father Perry. 00:00 Welcome to Marys Message 00:35 Prayer for Vocations 01:52 Jesus and Loving Discipline 02:54 Jeremiah and the Hard Call 04:39 Living Sacrifice in Christ 06:19 Peter Rebuked Take Up Cross 07:48 Practical Model Mary 09:49 You Are Special Poem 11:25 Childlike Trust and Gods Hug 12:38 Closing Prayers and Blessing 13:36 Subscribe and Final Sendoff Support the show 🎧 Subscribe, leave a 5-star review, and share this episode to help Mary’s message reach more hearts.

    Feast of the Assumption: Mary’s Glory, Our Hope

    The Feast of the Assumption: Mary’s Glory, Our Hope Cristy Murray and Father Perry Kenaston open the “Mary’s Messages: Leading Hearts to Jesus” podcast with prayer and Luke’s Magnificat, then reflect on the Church’s celebration of the Solemnity of the Assumption. Father Perry shares early Church tradition that the apostles (except Thomas) were gathered at Mary’s “falling asleep,” her tomb near Gethsemane was later found empty, and devotion continues there in pilgrimage; he notes the Assumption was defined as dogma by Pope Pius XII in 1950. They emphasize the Assumption as a sign of hope and a preview of believers’ resurrection, affirming the dignity and redemption of the body and Mary as model disciple and intercessor. Cristy asks about whether Mary died, and Father Perry recounts a folklore story. They mention Medjugorje pilgrimages, a 46-day Novena to Mary’s Mantle ending with consecration on August 15, request prayers for the Anchorage-Juneau clergy retreat, and close with a prayer. 00:00 Welcome to Mary’s Messages 00:36 Opening Prayer and Magnificat 01:18 Assumption Tradition and Empty Tomb 02:41 Dogma and Hope for Us 05:06 Assumption as Our Destiny 06:36 Mary as Model Disciple 07:31 Dignity of Body and Call to Action 09:08 Rosary Reflection and Assumption Poem 10:39 Did Mary Die 13:15 Apparitions and Medjugorje Talk 14:34 Holy Day Obligation and Consecration 16:57 Priests Retreat Prayer Request 18:33 Closing Prayer and Farewell Support the show 🎧 Subscribe, leave a 5-star review, and share this episode to help Mary’s message reach more hearts.
