• November 28, 2021, Today’s Holy Rosary, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast of this Rosary • In Memoriam of Maria Blanca: Testimonials Today, on the first Sunday of Advent, all of us who follow Christ begin a period of a renewed commitment to the faith. Advent is a time of vigilant waiting that prepares us to welcome the mystery of the Word Incarnate. The true light enters the world through the immaculate Mary. The light flows out into our dark, obscure, and sinful lives to illuminate them. To wait for the Lord who comes, we pray and practice penance. We prepare to receive the joy of Christ through his gift of grace and salvation. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! + Mikel A. | TheRosaryNetwork.org, New York
• November 21, 2021, Today’s Holy Rosary, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast of this Rosary • In Memoriam of Maria Blanca: Testimonials Today, Sunday, November 21st, along with the memorial of the Presentation of Mary, is the solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe. The will of the Son is to save all the souls from the slavery of sin. The Blessed Virgin Mary reminded us in Garabandal, Spain, the urgent need to repent by asking forgiveness to her divine Son. Jesus Christ, all mercy, understands — and suffers with — our struggle. His heart is burning with merciful love towards us. Sixty years ago, Our Lady of Mount Carmel of Garabaldal, in the same mountains where we pray today’s Rosary, requested the faithful to reflect on the Passion of the Christ, visit frequently the Blessed Sacrament, and do sacrifices and penance. Time for each one of us is almost up, and we need to react, without further excuses. Christ King of the Universe reigns over individuals, families, society, governments, and nations. All things were created by Him. Let’s urgently convert ourselves. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! + Mikel A. | TheRosaryNetwork.org, New York
• November 20, 2021, Today’s Holy Rosary, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast of this Rosary • In Memoriam of Maria Blanca: Testimonials Sixty years ago, Our Lady of Mount Carmel of Garabandal, La Virgen del Carmen de Garabandal, along with St Michael the Archangel, started to appear to four girls for four continuous years in a remote village in the north of Spain, near Santander. The Blessed Virgin Mary reminded the messages of Fatima, calling for an urgent conversion of heart. On the first message, the Holy Mary stated: "We must make many sacrifices, perform much penance, and visit the Blessed Sacrament frequently. But first, we must lead good lives. Another prophetic message, that we’ve seen unfolded: “Many Cardinals, Bishops, and priests are following the road to perdition, and with them, they are taking many more souls.” “Ever less importance is being given to the Holy Eucharist. “ We pray today's Rosay in Garabandal, honoring, if I may, my holy wife, Maria Blanca.

• November 19, 2021, Today’s Holy Rosary, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast of this Rosary • In Memoriam of Maria Blanca: Testimonials Nothing in this world lasts forever. In Spain, there is a popular saying that you hear in daily conversations, for example, in retail: “Para siempre, Dios,” “Forever it is only God.” Over and over again, Jesus repeats in the Gospel that our deepest commitments should be for God. Yesterday’s shocking reading (Luke 19:41-41), forecasting the destruction of an entire city, highlighted the same idea. My wife Maria Blanca reminded us when she was about to die: “We live for God alone” Freeing ourselves from our material world seems to us an impossible mission because this is all we know. Only with the knowledge that comes from the faith, we will be able to understand what’s our existence all about. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! + Mikel A. | TheRosaryNetwork.org, New York
• November 18, 2021, Today’s Holy Rosary, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast of this Rosary • In Memoriam of Maria Blanca: Testimonials Three days before dying at the ICU in La Paz Hospital in Madrid on October 28, María Blanca left us a WhatsApp audio file saying: "Be hopeful, everything is all right; we don't live for ourselves, we live for God." Amidst intense suffering, my holy wife had the clarity to understand that God's given life is eternal. Real joy and happiness are acquired by serving Jesus and Mary. As faithful dwelling in this valley of tears, we know it, but our senses and feelings keep us grounded in hard earthly reality. We try not to be disconsolate. My family receives comfort with the belief that Maria Blanca is enjoying the face of Jesus and the Communion of Saints. A close American friend, who is used to praying a lot, told us this week: "Yesterday, we all were praying for Maria Blanca; today, we pray to her." Ave Maria!
