Love LGBT like Jesus

30 Mon May 2022

≈ Comments Off on Love LGBT like Jesus

With only one week to go until we will be leaving for Medjugorje we are all really excited and at the same time aware that not everybody over there understand or are open to Jesus’ love for LGBT people.

Already our t-shirts and logos have caused a bit of a stir among some as they struggle to see Jesus and the LGBT colours together!

This morning Jesus himself spoke to me about it all very clearly and authoritivly about these people who object to this mission.

“Jesus 

My children, my sacred heart is infinitely big and within it there is enough love for all of humanity for all times and even if there were to be millions of more humanities, my love would never run out!

Why then do you get so upset about my love for the LGBT community?

Is my love for you any less? Will there be less love for you and your families?

My children, my love is not a finite resource like oil or coal that is to be owned and controlled by human beings.

My love is an infinite and free love owned entirely by me and given by me freely as I choose.

My disciples were ordinary and simple men as were so many of the saints and so why does it bother some of you so much that I should love and give special graces to my LGBT children too?

I am in no need of your human permission or understanding to touch those souls but your responsibility is very great if you should block or reject these souls from my church.

Repent my children of all your ungodly attitudes and prejudices and welcome and love my LGBT children into your hearts and lives and allow my grace to act both in them and in you.”

Very strong and direct words from Jesus and a very sobering warning to all who try to block Jesus’ love to the LGBT community for whatever reasons no matter how holy or pious they may appear.

Yet also a fantastic encouragement to us to keep on going boldly proclaiming and witnessing the love of Jesus for LGBT people.

And the good news continues as I’ve managed to get more t-shirts printed for a fraction of the cost of the first one which cost £20 and will be getting badges too to distribute to anyone interested in helping us and helping Jesus to spread this message of love and grace.

Please do get in touch if you’d like to buy a t-shirt or a badge to support our growing ministry and may the Lord open all hearts and minds to accept and embrace this wonderful minister of love and hope to a community which has has been misunderstood and rejected for so long!

Probably a bit early though to give free t-shirts and badges to Fr Marinko, Fr Leon and others over there as a peace offering!!🤣🤣🤣

Have a super day and week!

Love has a cost!

29 Sun May 2022

≈ Comments Off on Love has a cost!

It’s hard to believe but this day next week we’ll be packing our bags for Medjugorje and I just got some really good news that my French friend, Marie André, will be there at the exact same time!

Marie André is an outstanding example of love in action and despite being in her 80’s, since meeting Séamus, Toni and I in Medjugorje over 3 years ago, she opened her heart fully to helping us through prayer, friendship and financial support too.

Never did she as much as bat an eyelid at our LGBT ministry. All she saw was love and God’s love for all and she often helped us financially when we were struggling even when all she had was a little pension from France.

As Our Lady spoke to me this morning about sacrificial love, I can’t but think of Marie André, my little French saint in the making.

“Our Lady 

Love, love, love! No greater love can any human being show than to lay their life down for their friends.

My children, all of you are called to this sacrificial love. It most likely will not be to lay your lives down literally as in the case of martyrs but to lay your lives down in many other ways for others.

You may be asked by God to lay your careers or your reputations down, you may be asked to lay your wealth and possessions down or indeed you may indeed be asked to lay your lives down like the martyrs.

Whichever is the case, following Jesus has a cost and you will only be able to follow him and keep your joy with the power of the Holy Spirit.

You must not try to do anything without the help and guidance of the Holy Spirit because even the best of intentions and the best of acts may be very far away from what God is really asking of you.

Again I remind you to pray with your hearts because it is in your hearts that you will find your true vocations and it is through prayer with the heart that you will find the strength to carry them out!“

Simple words from Our Lady and yet challenging because following Jesus has its challenges and the only way that we can remain joyful is if we are operating in the power of the Holy Spirit and not on our own strength.

And so as we prepare for Pentecost next Sunday, let us invoke and pray to the Holy Spirit to reveal to us God’s will for our lives and to give us the strength and the love to carry it out joyfully whatever the cost!

Medjugorje fever!!

28 Sat May 2022

≈ Comments Off on Medjugorje fever!!

With just over a week to go before a group of over 30 of us from London set off for Medjugorje for 10 days, we are all really excited.

Even the covid test required to enter Bosnia has been abolished meaning that our only task now is to get to the airport on time!!

One thing is for sure and that is that there will be no shortage of joy on this pilgrimage and we are a lively group that like to laugh and have fun as well of course as to pray and grow spiritually.

There is a certain pressure on me to be a good boy in light of all the troubles I had over their before linked LGBT ministry and the misunderstandings and fears that it tends to bring with it!

I think I’d be fooling everybody if I promised that I’ll be good but I can certainly promise to be faithful to Jesus and Mary and the special ministry that they have given me in reconciling LGBT people, families and friends with the church and if I do that, Our Lady will do the rest!!

Not so long ago, the mother of a gay son told me how wonderful and necessary it would really be to have LGBT ministry at Medjugorje’s youth festival which attracts young people from all over the world with their families.

How many of these young people might be struggling with LGBT related issues and struggling as to where to go, who to talk to, what to do? Not to mention perhaps their friends and families that may be struggling too as to how to support them and what advice to give them.

These are just some of the ideas and inspirations that have been coming to some of us as we pray and as we surrender ourselves to Our Lady so that we can be her apostles of love to others.

And of course as we are preparing to go to Medjugorje we are also preparing to say fairwell to our dear friend Séamus who will be staying over there and allowing God to lead him.

Today will be his last day working here in London and I’m sure he too is feeling emotional about it all. We’ve been through am extraordinary amount together since leaving Medjugorje all those years ago and meeting Toni and coming to London.

Even back then we used to drive to Medjugorje from Split every month for Marjana’s monthly apparition which always encouraged us greatly as Our Lady was constantly speaking about ‘apostles of love’ at that time and this is what we were doing to the best of our abilities to the LGBT community.

So how exciting for us all to be going back to give thanks to Our Lady when our ministry is now much clearer and more established with the support of the diocese here in London even if it means saying fairwell to Séamus who Our Lady is preparing now for another mission.

On a very practical note, Séamus will be leaving for Ireland on Tuesday and then coming back on Saturday before we leave for Medjugorje on Monday so for those of you keen to say goodbye, the time is running out!

So as you can see, exciting times are before us and so let’s pray that we are all obedient in every way to the inspirations and desires of our most beautiful mother, Our Lady of Medjugorje for the good of the whole church and world so that we can be apostles of love and peace wherever we may go!!

LGBT Colours

27 Fri May 2022

Posted by michael4jesus in All Posts

≈ Comments Off on LGBT Colours

Good morning all from my favourite coffee shop where Our Lady has been speaking to me about saving souls and using the LGBT colours for evangelisation.

“Our Lady 

My children, the most important thing to Jesus is to save souls.

So many of you are blinded by traditions and rules and are more concerned about saving these than saving souls.

Do your buildings and books have the gift of eternal life?

What is more important, souls or human institutions which are here today and gone tomorrow?!

Look at your world, look at the ruins of monasteries and churches and castles all over the world that are now tourist destinations!

They are gone but every soul that ever lived in  them or prayed in them lives on.

My children, heaven thirsts to reach out and to save souls. This is the priority of heaven.

Do not let human arguments about colours and signs get in the way of saving souls because this is the work of Satan.

Continue my child to use the LGBT flag to reach out to souls and I myself will be your protection.”

And so on that note it’s full steam ahead with using the LGBT flag and colours for evangelisation and anybody that doesn’t like of is going to have to take it up with Our Lady and not with me!!

Have a super day and if you would like an evangelisation sticker or t-shirt please get in touch and you too can become a light of love and hope to LGBT souls.

Amazing evening!

26 Thu May 2022

Posted by michael4jesus in All Posts

≈ Comments Off on Amazing evening!

What an amazing evening of grace and mercy we had yesterday at our Medjugorje LGBT evening!

Our good friend Brenda gave the most powerful and amazing witness of God’s love and mercy for LGBT people that I have ever heard inside the doors of a Catholic church in my life.

With humility, vulnerability, intelligence and authority she touched on all the misunderstandings around gay people and their hidden suffering and exorted everybody never to judge and to love like Jesus.

She wasn’t afraid either to tell us all how over the last few year’s since meeting us that she came to the shocking realisation that gay people don’t get healed and become straight as she had previously been led to believe and it takes enormous humility to stand up in front of a crowd and admit that to everyone.

Yet she was explicitly clear about holding onto church teaching to sexual sin but in doing it with love and compassion and understanding.

Honestly I couldn’t have been more proud of her and she is a true example of practicing what she preaches and putting the love of Jesus and of the truth before her reputation or popularity or whatnot!

Of course the evening wouldn’t have been complete without Satan having a bit of a go and while for the first time we had no protesters outside, I got a right telling of from one very well-meaning over pious gentleman.

“Who do you think you are?” He asked me with maximum conviction.

“I mean, how dare you, just how dare you” He proceeded as inwardly I thought “this will be fun”.

“Placing the image of the second person of the most Holy Trinity on that flag”.

The flag again of course which he went on to tell me is satanic and blasphemous…

I explained to him that Jesus, ‘the second person of the most Holy Trinity’ (note to everyone out here: posh theological language doesn’t make you automatically holy) became flesh and died for us and loves each and every soul including every lesbian and gay and bisexual and transgender and placing the image of Jesus on that flag symbolised Jesus’ greatest attribute, his mercy.

And looking at him straight in the eyes before walking away I asked him “What are you doing to reach out to the gay community before you come here judging me?”.

Who knows, he might write to the Bishop but in today’s church Bishops have a special place for these type of letters, the bin!!

And so now with only 10 days to go till we arrive in Medjugorje we are more excited than ever and have our hearts open wide to the amazing blessings and graces that Our Lady and Jesus have prepared for us so that we may come back to London afterwards with even more love and zeal for the mission of evangelisation and love to the whole world.

So a big well done again to Brenda, a thank you to everyone who came and who prayed for us and to anyone who gets in the way we say “How dare you! Who do you think that you are by getting in the way of the mercy of the most holy second person of the Trinity for his LGBT children?”.😂😂😂😂😂

Have a super day!

Friends of Jesus

25 Wed May 2022

≈ Comments Off on Friends of Jesus

Good morning everyone and if you are in London please come along to our LGBT Medjugorje evening this evening that’s going to be great!

The theme of this evening’s meeting is “friends of LGBT people” and one of the reasons for this is because our evenings really are for everybody.

We could just have LGBT people sharing their stories but it’s equally important to hear the stories and the perspectives of the families and friends of LGBT people because they too have often been affected and wounded by these issues.

Many times friends of LGBT people have left the church in solidarity with their LGBT friends while others have struggled to share their faith with their LGBT friends without hurting them or not knowing what to say….

This evening we will have a wonderful testimony from a very prayerful heterosexual woman who has had gay friends all of her life and she will share about her experiences and understanding of God’s love and plan for LGBT souls. She’s a wonderful and brave woman of truth and prayer so please do keep her in your prayers as it takes buckets of love, courage and humility to agree to do this.

Jesus himself also gave me a message this morning on the subject of friendship.

“Jesus 

My children, I am not only your God but your friend and friends share their friends with eachother and this is exactly what I want to do.

I wish to share both my friends in heaven, the angels and the saints, and my friends on earth, those who seek me, with you all so that we may be united in love.

There are many souls on earth who are seeking God in their hearts and these are my special souls too even if they do not know me yet.

This is why my children you must not judge. Always put yourselves in the position of the other person and ask yourself how you would be or what you might believe if you grew up differently.

It is your love for God and for eachother that is the most authentic proof that as Christians and as Catholics that you hold the truth about God and about His incarnation and real presence in the eucharist.

All the books and debates in the world cannot replace the authentic witness of love in your hearts and peace in your souls and you can only obtain this through prayer.

Heed the invitation of my mother in Medjugorje and open your hearts to prayer and love and you will become true friends of God and lovers of your fellow brothers and sisters.“

So with that in mind, come along this evening or join us online for a beautiful evening of prayer with the rosary, praise and worship, holy mass with music ministry, lively testimony and sharing, confession, adoration in front of the Blessed Sacrament and fellowship afterwards in the hall!

“What a friend we have in Jesus”

Our first t-shirt

23 Mon May 2022

Posted by michael4jesus in All Posts

≈ Comments Off on Our first t-shirt

As you know we have been getting the image of the sacred heart with the LGBT colours inside symbolising Jesus’ love for LGBT people.

Cutting a long story short we got a t-shirt made with this powerful image and as I’ve been wearing it today I’ve got quite a few looks and it looks amazing on Rayne too!

Some know immediately what it is and see the fire of God’s love while those with non-catholic backgrounds don’t necessarily make this association. Some didn’t seem to see the LGBT colours at all unless they were LGBT themselves and so in a humorous sort of way it may be the perfect evangelisation t-shir with everyone seeing what they want to see!!!

I wore it last night to LGBT Westminster at Farm Street and as providence would have it, I was also reading so and so it was really on display. I got lots of really positive feedback afterwards with most of the LGBT people recognising immediately the heart of Jesus and the LGBT colours and smiling to see both of them together in this symbolic way!

Since the aim of our ministry is to build a bridge of God’s love between the gay community and the catholic community we must be respectful to both sides and invite people to think rather than provoke them or further hurt them and it seems that this t-shirt does just that.

As you can imagine it’s very delicate which is why lots of prayer, trial & error are necessary!

Also as Wednesday approaches we are handing out flyers again too and I even stuck one to my bicycle, you never know.

Only half an hour after putting a poster up in the church the other day it was ripped down so while we march forward with Our Lady, we are bit unaware of some resistance which of course is always a good sign when we’re doing something for God.

Yet overall we are surrounded by more and more support and encouragement and the more people understand what we are doing, the more they are getting on board and helping us in spreading the message of God’s love and mercy for LGBT people.

So please keep on spreading the word and praying for us. We have already had people interested in buying the t-shirt so if you are interested too then get in touch although it’s a bit expensive at over £20 because I had to send off the logo and get it printed.

See you Wednesday!! Lol

The wonder of the priesthood

21 Sat May 2022

Posted by michael4jesus in All Posts

≈ Comments Off on The wonder of the priesthood

Good morning from Joe & the Juice where I’m having my coffee nice and early!

A few days ago as I was serving mass I felt Jesus showing me even more how precious the priesthood is and how Jesus shares his life and ministry with the priest in an extraordinary way

Of course we are all called to be like Jesus but the priest is given an opportunity to be even more like Jesus because only he can celebrate the mass and forgive sins like Jesus did.

Jesus himself spoke to me this morning as I prayed about all this and helped me to understand even more:

“Jesus 

How marvellous my child the gift of the priesthood that God who became man not only shares His life and body and divinity with mankind but also shares his priesthood.

How amazing that a mere and mortal man can share in the ministry of forgiveness of sins and of sanctification of others in such a unique and special way.

When the priests says “I forgive you…”, both his “I” and my “I” are one because through his ordination he shares in my priesthood and my power and authority to forgive sins 

Similarly when the priest says “this is my body” because at that moment it is I, Jesus, speaking through him.

Satan does everything he can to destroy in both the hearts and minds of priests their understanding and love of who they are but from a heavenly perspective, the calling to the priesthood is the highest calling on earth and the prospective priest is called to unity with me in an extra special way.

The priest must not be prideful but the priest must walk and act in the dignity and responsibility of this calling because it will be asked of him on the day he dies.

Nowadays you have so few vocations because you have all but lost your sense of God and the dignity and mystery of the priesthood and of Christianity.

You have all but abandoned all sense of the supernatural and replaced it with human understanding and theories in the name of progress.

You go further and further into the darkness as you are so very blinded by your own progress.

Come back my children and heed my warnings and the pleas of my mother. Read the lives of the saints, look at their love and zeal for prayer, for evangelisation and for the eucharist.

Do not let progress fool you because when one grows darker their is no progress only death and deception.

Pray for your priests, remind them of the significance and importance of their supernatural vocation and pray for holy vocations to the priesthood.”

What a beautiful message and reminder of the importance of the priesthood, of the spiritual life and a warning to us all not to let ourselves get fooled or blinded by ‘progress’ that excludes God.

Let us pray for vocations today, let us encourage young people to consider becoming a priest and let us remind any tired or down-trodden priests of who they are and of how very special and extraordinary their ministry is even if they don’t always feel it or see it!

Love no matter what…

20 Fri May 2022

Posted by michael4jesus in All Posts

≈ Comments Off on Love no matter what…

Last night Rayne and I prayed in front of the sacred heart of Jesus statute in the church.

As I looked at Jesus, it suddenly hit me that his heart is like his shield and rather than cover it with armour and a metallic shield, Jesus exposes it vulnerably.

Jesus’ protection is in his eternal love for us that can never be extinguished no matter how much we reject him or insult him. His protection is in his openness.

And it’s the same at mass. When I serve mass and I look at that simple bread and wine that will be transformed into His body for us all to consume, again I think of Jesus’ vulnerability because he is giving us himself!

Similarly as we become more like Jesus, we too become more vulnerable, more open and yet at the same time stronger and freer to love without being afraid of what others may say or think of us because the love of Jesus will make all these things seem insignificant.

This type of attitude and strength is what is needed nowadays for evangelisation when we live in a world where talking about Jesus and Christian morality is counter cultural to say te least and the only way we will be able to sustain this is by being plugged into Jesus’ sacred heart which will give us the strength, the zeal and the protection.

This certainly does not mean that we won’t get hurt because when we love people we run the risk of them hurting us and perhaps using the things that we have told them in private against us.

We will get hurt because Jesus gets hurt but when we turn our hearts back to God and forgive those who hurt us, God repairs our hearts and we are ready to love again and yes, maybe get hurt again too.

In a way it’s a bit like having a flat tyre on your car or bike, you get it repaired and you get back on the road!!

Sometimes the risk after getting hurt would be to close our hearts and not to love again but yet Jesus continuously calls us to forgiving, to loving and to keeping our hearts open to love as he does. The only possible way of doing this is through prayer and for those of us that are Catholic we have the powerhouse of all the sacraments of the church to strengthen us even further.

So let us keep going back to the sacred heart and it will heal our wounds and strengthen us so that we can love no matter what and thus be the ‘apostles of love’ that Our Lady continuously speaks of in Medjugorje.

Support our priests

19 Thu May 2022

Posted by michael4jesus in All Posts

≈ Comments Off on Support our priests

Yesterday in our church at St. Mary of the Angels there was a bit of a scene between one troublesome parishioner and our parish priest.

This particular parishioner has a brewing hatred towards Fr. Keith and let’s just say that he can’t hold it in no matter how much we have all tried to reason with him and love hi.

Like milk that boils over, so very often the evil spirit just has to pop!! When forgiveness and humility are not on the cards, the only outlet for this anger and hatred becomes others, in the case our parish priest.

As I was praying about this last night, Our Lady gave me a word on how we should treat our priests and this incident yesterday was a reminder of just how cruel and unfair some people can be towards good priests who do everything to help them.

“Our Lady 

My children, countess times I implore you to love your priests and to love prayer so that your love and prayer may inspire them too to be Holy and prayerful 

Satan attacks my priests more than other souls because the priest is at the head of the spiritual family of each church.

When a priest is unholy then the whole parish will suffer and similarly when a priest is holy, the whole parish will benefit.

You must neither expect too much or too little from your priests and you must pray constantly for them, especially in areas where their weakness is obvious.

Constantly remind yourselves that priests are men too and if for whatever reason you need to be firm with a particular priest, do it with love and respect and within the rules of the church and the state.

Pray, pray, pray and forgive from your hearts and by doing so I will teach you how to love the most difficult of priests without compromising on holiness or charity.“

I always love Our Lady’s messages because they are so real. Not for a second is she telling is that priests are perfect or that they don’t have their faults but she is putting it into context and asking us to help them and support them rather than crucify them with criticism.

This doesn’t mean that we may never have to write to the Bishop or make a complaint about a priest or indeed if it was something was very sinister we may have to go to the police, yet we can still do it with love and mercy and continue to pray for that priest’s restoration without judging or without condemning.

And so today may we do our very best to love our priests and to help them in any way that we can and if we have to speak firm words or disagree with them, let us do it with love and respect rather than through bullying, intimidation, self-righteousness and pride for the measure we show mercy is the measure in which we will receive it and I know for one that I’m in desperate need of it every day!!
