Your Imprisoned Brethren
Maria says: (Maria Mother and Teacher, Vol. 1) ” My children, here I am amongst you. I am your Mother.
I am the guardian of prisoners and inmates, and I come to solicit help from you, so that my work for them may be more profitable and the help that you give me may also be advantageous for you.
Almost in every part of the world ferocious wars exist and when fighting is not between different nations, they are internal and fratricidal wars, which take peace away, sow hatred, desperation, misery and all those horrors that make the earth resemble a hell rather than a habitation for civil persons.
Wars bring prisoners into the prisons and into concentration camps. Even civil and fratricidal wars populate the prisons, and every misdeed, crime or offense in cities or countryside bring guilty and innocent to appear in judgment and live in prisons, for no other than the period of study of the cases which human justice gets ready to judge.
I am there in those places where my children, innocent or guilty, lie and suffer segregated from other men. This period of retreat could be advantageous for all since, in silence and recollection, they could ask pardon from God and make good intentions. But few are those to whom grace touches the heart and who can with a renewed life give themselves to God. In them, faith and hope is lacking and often the more evil ones can induce the good ones, the not guilty ones to become evil. In jail, many prisoners prepare the future crimes to be done at their release.
You understand, my children, how urgent prayer and assistance is to these people who too are your brethren, even if they are not part of your natural family. That’s why I ask you to be a help to me, so that I may be able to speak to the hearts of all and of a place of punishment be able to make a place of conversion.
I know that you are helping them, sending, with garments and other kinds of primary needs, even these messages that are destined to touch the hearts of men, but your work must be strengthened and always be important to you.
If then you were unable to approach these unhappy children of mine, how much good you will do to include them in all your invocations and render them sharers of the merits of your good works!
I speak to you of the inmates today, who, by starting the novena in preparation for Holy Christmas, recall my divine prisoner to whom I could very well say with love, squeezing Him to my heart with the most heartfelt affections: “Jesus, free and loosen the chains of those who lie prisoners of sin and the demon.”
Children, pray also in this way, when in your beautiful communions you hold your God to your heart.
Be good with all, learn to see in all the events, joyful or sad of life, the hand of God which, even if it strikes, always does it fir the good of his children.”
Maria Mother and Teacher
The thoughts, the reflections and the meditations in this booklet, were inspired by Our Mother Maria, Mother of Jesus, to Carmela Negri Carabelli. They are, however, addressed to all those souls, who, desirous to love the Lord, seek to put into practice his teachings and to live the Christian life more perfectly. May Jesus bless these pages and those who read them with the desire to improve themselves, granting the help of his grace.
Pray for the Church, its Hierarchies, the validly ordained and consecrated during this time of confusion and apostasy. Do not fall into the trap of division, even with apparent good reasons. Turn your eyes to the lives of saints, such as St. Martin de Porres, St. Padre Pio of Pietrelcina, the former discriminated against and the latter fought by the same institution. Let their behavior in adversity be an example for you to follow…
“The Church is God’s house. It is forbidden for men to enter here with bare arms and wearing shorts. It is forbidden for women to enter wearing trousers, bare headed, with short, low-necked or sleeveless dresses.”
“Parents, correct the ways if your family, have much dialogue with your children, make time to listen to them as many homes are being lost due to lack of love, dialogue, understanding and most specially for not inviting God. Take God back into your homes, pray my Holy Rosary, as the family that prays together stays together.” 
January 31, 2022 "Heavenly Father, today, I surrender to You my heart. Help me to be Your instrument in the world. Cover me with the Precious Blood of Your Divine Son. Guard me against all evil. Protect me from any evil plan Satan may have for me today. Clothe me in Your Divine Will. Amen"
"O Hearts of Jesus and Mary; I consecrate myself, I consecrate my family and the whole world, to your Most Beloved Hearts. Listen to the supplication which I making to you and accept our hearts in Yours, to be delivered and protected we, the whole world, from all evil and all sin. May the protection of your Two Hearts be refuge, strength, and protection, in the daily spiritual struggles. That the power of your Two Hearts irradiates the world so that it is protected from evil and sin. We willingly consecrate ourselves and consecrate all mankind to your Hearts; sure and confident, for your Great Mercy, to obtain the victory over the forces of evil in this world, and the eternal Glory in the Kingdom of God. Amen"
"O Virgin of Carmel, may the power of your Holy Scapular take away from me the enemy of my soul; bless me, Mother of Carmel, and deliver me from all evil and danger in this world. I ask you O Mother, that in the hour of my death, your Holy Scapular frees me from the fury of the devil and in the eternity, of the eternal fire. Amen" 
"Oh Jesus of Divine Mercy, hear my pleadings to you, for I am here to do your Will"
"O glorious St. Joseph! by your profound humility, by your unalterable meekness, by your invincible patience, by your angelic purity and perfect fidelity that made you a timely imitator of the virtues of Jesus and Mary, I ask you to console me in all my sorrows, to guide me in all my doubts, to defend me in all temptations, to deliver me from all spiritual and material dangers; to extend your arm against all my visible and invisible enemies, breaking and destroying all the snares and barriers that they tend and arm against me. Amen" 
"Oh, blessed Saint Michael, protect us from the attacks and snares of the evil spirits because you know full well that we are poor mortals, fragile and weak, in need of the Mercy of God and of your protection to fulfill the mission that Heaven has commissioned to us. Oh, Saint Michael, may your victorious cry: “who is like God? no one is like God”, suppress and cast into Hell satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the destruction of souls. Amen"
Most sweet Jesus, redeemer of the human race, look down upon us, humbly prostrate before your altar. We are yours and yours we wish to be; but to be more surely united with you, behold each one of us freely consecrates himself today to your most sacred heart. Many, indeed, have never known you, many too, despising your precepts, have rejected you. Have mercy on them all, most merciful Jesus, and draw them to your sacred heart. Be you king, O Lord, not only of the faithful who have never forsaken you, but also of the prodigal children who have abandoned you; grant that they may quickly return to their father’s house, lest they die of wretchedness and hunger. Be you king of those who are deceived by erroneous opinions, or whom discord keeps aloof, and call them back to the harbor of truth and unity of faith, so that soon there may be but one flock and one shepherd. Be you king also of all those who sit in the ancient superstition of the Gentiles, and refuse not you to deliver them out of darkness into the light and kingdom of God. Grant, O Lord, to your Church, assurance of freedom and immunity from harm; give peace and order to all nations, and make the earth resound from pole to pole with one cry: Praise to the divine heart that wrought our salvation; to it be glory and honor forever. Amen.
