JANUARY 25, 1991: "Dear children, today, like never before, I invite you to prayer. Your prayer should be a prayer for peace. Satan is strong and wishes not only to destroy human life, but also nature and the planet on which we live. Therefore, dear children, pray that you can protect yourselves, through prayer, with the blessing of God's peace. God sends me to you sothat I can help you if you wish to accept the rosary. Even the rosary alone can work miracles in the world and in your lives. I bless you and I stay among you as long as it is God's will. Thank you for not betraying my presence here, and I thank you because your response is serving God and peace. Thank you for having responded to my call." FEBRUARY 25, 1991: "Dear children, today I invite you to decide for God because distance from God is the fruit of the lack of peace in your hearts. God alone is peace. Therefore, approach Him through your personal prayer and then live peace in your hearts. In this way, peace will flow like a river into the whole world. Do not speak about peace, but make peace. I am blessing each of you and each good decision of yours. Thank you for having responded to my call." MARCH 18, 1991, MIRJANA'S BIRTHDAY MESSAGE: "Dear children, I am glad that you have gathered in such a large number. I would desire that you dedicate prayers for my children who do not know my love and the love of my Son. Help them to come to know it. Help me as Mother of all of you. My children, how many times I have already invited you here in Medugorje to prayer and I will invite you again because I desire you to open your hearts to my Son, to allow Him to come in and fill you with peace and love. Allow Him, let Him enter! Help Him by your prayers in order that you might be able to spread peace and love to others, because that is now most necessary or you in this time of battle with Satan. I have often spoken to you: pray, pray, because only by means of prayer will you drive off Satan and all the evil that goes along with Him. I promise you, my children, that I will pray for you, but I seek from you more vigorous prayers and I seek you to spread peace and love which I am asking you in Medugorje already nearly ten years. Help me, and I will pray to my Son for you." MARCH 25, 1991: "Dear children, again today I invite you to live the passion of Jesus in prayer and in union with Him. Decide to give more time to God who gave you these days of grace. Therefore, dear children, pray and renew in a special way the love for Jesus in your hearts. I am with you and I accompany you with my blessings and my prayers. Thank you for having responded to my call." APRIL 25, 1991: "Dear children, today I invite you so that your prayer be prayer with the heart. Let each of you find time for prayer so that in your prayer you discover God. I do not desire you to talk about prayer, but to pray. Let every day be filled with prayer of gratitude to God for life and for all that you have. I do not desire your life to pass by in words, but that you glorify God with deeds. I am with you, I am grateful to God for every moment spent with you.  Thank you for having responded to my call." MAY 25, 1991: "Dear children, today I invite all of you who have heard my message of peace to realize it with seriousness and with love in your life. There are many who think they are doing a lot by talking about the messages but do not live them. Dear children, I invite you to life and to change all the negative in you so that it all turns into the positive, and into life. Dear children, I am with you and I desire to help each of you to live and, by living, to witness to the good news. I am here dear children, to help you and to lead you to heaven. In heaven is the joy through which you can already live heaven now. Thank you for having responded to my call." JUNE 25, 1991: "Dear children, today, on this great day which you have given me, I desire to bless all of you and to say, `These days while I am with you are days of grace'. I desire to teach you and to help you walk on the path of holiness. There are many people who do not desire to understand my message and to accept with seriousness what I am saying. But you, I therefore call and ask that, by your life and your daily living, you witness my presence. If you pray, God will help you discover the true reason for my coming. Therefore, little children, pray and read the Sacred Scriptures so that, through my coming, you may discover the message in Sacred Scripture for you. Thank you for having responded to my call." JUNE 25, 1991- IVANKA'S YEARLY ANNIVERSARY MESSAGE: Our Lady appeared joyful and remained about twenty minutes with Ivanka praying for peace and asking for our prayers for peace. She spoke privately with Ivanka about the 6th secret. Our Lady asked that we become more rooted in our faith. Ivanka's facial expression ranged from intensely serious to supremely joyful. There was no formal message. JULY 25, 1991: "Dear children, today I invite you to pray for peace. At this time, peace is threatened in a special way and I am seeking from you to renew fasting and prayer in your families. Dear children, I desire you to grasp the seriousness of the situation and that much of what will happen depends on your prayers; and you are praying a little bit. Dear children, I am with you and I am inviting you to begin to pray and fast seriously, as in the first days of my coming. Thank you for having responded to my call." AUGUST 25, 1991: "Dear children, today, also I invite you to prayer, now as never before, when my plan has begun to be realized. Satan is strong and wants to sweep away plans of peace and joy and make you think that my Son is not strong in His decisions. Therefore, I call all of you, dear children, to pray and fast still more firmly. I invite you to renunciation for nine days, so that, with your help, everything that I wanted to realize through the secrets which began at Fatima may be fulfilled. I call you, dear children, to grasp the importance of my coming and the seriousness of the situation. I want to save all souls and present them to God. Therefore, let us pray that everything I have begun will be fully realized. Thank you for having responded to my call." SEPTEMBER 25, 1991 "Dear children, today, in a special way, I invite you all to prayer and renunciation. For now, as never before, Satan wants to show the world his shameful face, by which he wants to seduce as many people as possible onto the way of death and sin. Therefore, dear children, help my Immaculate Heart to triumph in the sinful world. I beseech all of you to offer prayers and sacrifices for my intentions so I can present them to God forn what is most necessary. Forget your desires, dear children, and pray for what God desires and not for what you desire. Thank you for having responded to my call." OCTOBER 25, 1991: "PRAY! PRAY! PRAY! (Marija, the visionary who receives the monthly messages for the world, says Our Lady did not give her usual `Thank you for having responded to my call'.) NOVEMBER 25, 1991: "Dear children, this time, also, I am inviting you to prayer. Pray that you might be able to comprehend what God desires to tell you through my presence and through the messages I am giving you. I desire to draw you ever closer to Jesus and His wounded heart, that you might be able to comprehend the immeasurable love which gave itself for each one of you. Therefore, dear children, pray that from your heart would flow a fountain of love to every person, both to the one that hates you and to the one that despises you. That way, you will be able, through Jesus' love, to overcome all the misery in this world of sorrow, which is without hope for those who do not know Jesus. I am with you and I love you with the immeasurable love of Jesus. Thank you for all your sacrifices and prayers. Pray so that I might be able to help you still more. Your prayers are necessary to me. Thank you for having responded to my call." DECEMBER 25, 1991: "Dear children, today, in a special way, I bring the little Jesus to you that He may bless you with His blessings of peace and love. Dear children, do not forget that this is a grace which many people neither under-stand nor accept. Therefore, you who have said that you are mine and seek my help, give all of yourself. First of all, give your love and example in your families. You say that Christmas is a family feast; therefore, dear children, put God in the first place in your families so that He may give you peace and may protect you not only from war, but also protect you from every Satanic attack during peace. When God is with you, you have everything; but when you do not want Him, then you are miserable and lost and you do not know on whose side you are. Therefore, dear children, decide for God and then you will get everything. Thank you for having responded to my call."
