Her message called for prayer, sacrifice, and reparation for sins\u2014especially for peace in the world.\n                      <br>\n                      <br> Our Lord Jesus Christ repeatedly assured us of His peace:\n                      <br> \u201cPeace be with you.\u201d (John 20:19)\n                      <br> And He also said:\n                      <br> \u201cPeace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives.\u201d (John 14:27)\n                      <br>\n                      <br> At the same time, Jesus warned:\n                      <br> \u201cDo you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division.\u201d (Luke 12:51-53)\n                      <br>\n                      <br> There are moments when division is permitted to reveal truth, to separate good from evil, and to help us understand the difference between the peace of Christ and the peace offered by the world.\n                      <br>\n                      <br> Today, we witness unrest and conflict across many parts of the world\u2014especially in regions connected to Biblical history such as Middle East ,Iran, Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria. We also see divisions within families and even\n                      within the Church. The world is in great need of true peace.\n                      <br>\n                      <br> The Holy Bible proclaims:\n                      <br> \u201cFor to us a child is born\u2026 and He will be called Prince of Peace.\u201d (Isaiah 9:6)\n                      <br>\n                      <br> True peace comes only from Jesus Christ.\n                      <br>\n                      <br> Therefore, let us dedicate this entire month of May to prayer for peace\u2014peace in the world, in our families, and in our Church. Through the intercession of Our Lady, St. Joseph, all the angels, and saints, let us unite in continuous\n                      prayer.\n                      <br>\n                      <br> Let us once again take up the mission of the Chain Rosary, praying 24 hours a day for all 31 days of May. Each one can choose a convenient time slot to pray\u2014for world peace and for our personal intentions.\n                      <br>\n                      <br> Let us also remember the words of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane:\n                      <br> \u201cWatch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.\u201d (Matthew 26:41)\n                      <br>\n                      <br> This is a time to stay awake in prayer, for the enemy seeks to shake us\u2014but through prayer, we remain strong in Christ.\n                      <br>\n                      <br> Let us respond with faith, unity, and perseverance in prayer.\n                      <br>\n                      <br> <\/p>\n                  <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we enter the blessed month of May, a month specially dedicated to our Blessed Mother, we are reminded of the historic event on 13 May 1917 at Fatima, Portugal, where the Virgin Mary appeared to L\u00facia dos Santos, Francisco Marto, and Jacinta Marto.
