Message from Our Blessed Mother to Carlos Lopez November 20, 1996 St. Bruno's Church, San Bruno, CA Dear Children, Praised be Jesus! I come this night as the White Dove, the White Lily of the Most Blessed Trinity. I come as the Gate of Heaven. I come to call you to God. I come to announce His coming. I come to prepare you, in body and soul, since His coining to the world is near. I desire to announce to you that God exists and He is close to you. My little ones, how many times have I asked you to pray, pray, pray, to prepare yourselves, to flee from sin, to unite yourselves as brothers and sisters in Christ, to love one another, to forgive one another, to be holy, to trust in me? How many times have you paid attention to me? How many times have you rejected many of my requests? How many times have you left me and hurt my Immaculate Heart? Today, once again, I come to ask you the same things so that you may be able to help me, to realize my plans in each one of you. I ask you, my children, to humble yourselves before God and that you ask His forgiveness with the heart - and in that way start, once again, to walk along that path that many times I have wanted to take you along. I desire this day to prepare you so that in the upcoming days you may receive Advent clean of heart, since my Beloved Son, the Redeemer, the Savior comes to bring peace to the world. Prepare yourselves as I have already taught you. I desire that you light a candle, starting the first day of Advent and ending on the first day of January, as a sign of the presence of the Savior, of my little Jesus, in your lives, in your homes. Pray, the prayer to my Child Jesus which I have already given you. Pray that prayer with love, with humility, with the heart and my Beloved Son who hears everything you ask Him, will answer many petitions to those who obey my request. Pray, pray, pray and obey my invitation of this night. I love you and I leave you inside my Immaculate Heart. I embrace you and I place you close to my chest. Obey and I will not leave you alone. I also bless my beloved priests who helped me this night and I leave them with many graces in their hearts. May the peace of the Prince of Peace be with all of you. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
