“GOD’S IMMENSITY GIVEN TO SOULS!”

Dear Divine Will Family,

The Center for the Divine Will wishes everyone a Happy and Holy New Year! We pray you had a marvelous and very holy Christmas, celebrating Jesus’ birth with family and friends!

It seems God had some special plans for me over the Advent and Christmas seasons, and so I give my fiat always to Him and His plans for we know they are always perfect for each one of us. I just pray that He will have mercy on this very poor soul!

We have some great news to share and some incredible new books to tell you about.

The great and most definitely Heavenly planned is the two retreats in Garabandal, Spain! The first will be May 14 – 21, 2024 with Mother Gabrielle Marie of the Benedictine Daughters of the Divine Will as our keynote speaker.
The second retreat will be held September 19 – 26, 2024 with Derek Williams as our keynote speaker! Derek is a brilliant teacher of the Divine Will and we thoroughly enjoyed his teachings at our November 2023 conference in Orlando, Florida!

Now if you are called to join either one of these retreats, please get in touch with Totally Yours Pilgrimages run by Guy Murphy. Their phone number is: 630-279-8424. Guy built a beautiful retreat house in Garabandal called “Mary’s House.” Totally Yours Pilgrimage is running the retreats, but the “Divine Will Institute and Retreat Center,” formally known as the “House of Sanctification,” is participating with Guy in these retreats.

Volume 33
May 26, 1935
Jesus: “Oh, how she glorifies Us and loves Us, it seems that she says to Us: I am little nor is it given me to enclose and to contain all Your immensity, but what You are, such am I, your Divine Will has enclosed You in me and I love You with your same love, I glorify You with your light, I adore You with your sanctity, I can give You everything because I possess my Creator. What thing cannot my Divine Will do in the creature, when she lets herself be dominated by Him? Everything. Therefore, be attentive, if you want everything and to give everything.”

Volume 32
June 29, 1933
Jesus: “This tiny one with her efforts, with her embarrassments, with her sayings, she wounds Us, enraptures Us, enchains Us, and then do you know what We do? We take up the little one and We adapt Ourselves to her, with a prodigy of Our omnipotence, We make flow Our immensity, Our power, sanctity, love, beauty, goodness, in a way that our Divine Being remains inside and outside of her, inseparable from her, and she sees that everything is hers and the little one in her emphasis of love says to Us: how content and happy I am, I can say that Your immensity is yours and mine, and I love You with immense love, with powerful love, to my love there lacks nothing, neither Your sanctity, nor Your goodness, nor Your beauty that enraptures, conquers and obtains all; not to content the human littleness in our Will, proves impossible to Us, and since with her littleness she cannot adapt herself to Us, God adapts Himself to her, and it proves easy to Us, because there are not extraneous elements to Us, but everything is Ours, at the most she will be little, but this says nothing, she will be more to Our care to make her how much more beautiful We can.”

NEW ADVERTISEMENT FOR THE DIVINE WILL CONFERENCE
NOVEMBER 1 – 4, 2023

Dear Divine Will Family,
I wanted to give everyone a new advertisement for the conference since Fr. James Blount cannot be with us. His assistant wrote a beautiful letter stating how sorry he is that he cannot make it. I have put it in the conference schedule for everyone to read!
Please continue to pray for his health and well being! We need him back out on the circuit teaching everyone the truth and giving everyone heads up on what is coming! Fiat always, God’s Will alone in all matters!
We love all of you so much and keep each of you in our daily prayers! God bless you with peace, joy and love for all souls and the immense grace to always stay in order! It’s a most important part of life in the Divine Will. If we are not in order, for God is Order Itself, then you will struggle a lot trying to live this most precious life!
Ann Ellison
PS: Can’t wait to see you at the conference….it’s going to be great! We have a surprise speaker!! It is NOT Fr. Blount!!

“FUSING YOURSELF IN MY WILL!”
(Live Streaming Information below!)

Dear Divine Will Family,

Wow, in just a few days we will be in Orlando, Florida, at our conference on the Divine Will with great speakers! The theme of our conference this year is: “Into the Kingdom of the Divine Will through our Blessed Mother, Mary!”

Our Lady plays such an important part in our life in the Divine Will. None of us could even remain in the Divine Will without Her help. After all, God has given Her all the graces which exist in God to distribute as She sees fit and to whom She wants! So, we have so much for which to be grateful to Her! She is our Mama, our Queen, our Advocate, our everything! We must always thank God for Her at every moment! It is always good when praying your Rosary, at the first three Hail Mary’s, after asking for an increase of Faith, Hope and Love, we thank God for choosing Mary to be the Mother of God, the Spouse of God and the Daughter of God! Thanking Him specifically for choosing Mary, She gives us so many graces! She loves for us to thank God for choosing Her!

I love this very short passage that I am sharing today. One of my favorites! It magnifies what an act in the Divine Will is and the importance of doing them! Read and enjoy and revel in the fact that we understand and have this incredible knowledge! How good God is to each one of us!! Eternally grateful to God, to Our Mama, and to all of Heaven for this immense grace!

Anyway, God is showing His favor by allowing us to finally get live streaming!! We are asking a reduced cost this time because it is our first time live streaming conference. We are asking $30.00 per person up to 5 people to get the link and password to watch the conference. For 5 – 10 people, $25.00 per person, if more than 10 to 20 people $20.00 per person; for more than 20 people, $15.00 per person! Each person has to register their name online before the receiving the link and password, or for the group coordinator to receive the info to sign in. Group names (large and small) can be entered by the group coordinator. (Remember, Group rates mean you have to be with a group watching in the same place. It is not a cenacle and everyone is watching at their homes.) I have attached a schedule to this email so you can see who will be speaking and when. You may use the same link and password for all 4 days.

There is a link on our website where you can sign up for the live streaming. This is a note from our IT lady who is doing this live streaming for us. Please pay attention to these instructions:

HAPPY AND HOLY FEAST OF OUR WONDERFUL AND HOLY GUARDIAN ARCHANGELS!

GUARDIAN ANGELS AND COURAGE!

Dear Divine Will Family,

First and foremost, I want to thank with all my heart all the beautiful and wonderful souls who wrote to say they are praying for Paul, my son! I know there are others out there that are doing the same but did not write. I am eternally grateful to you all, and I would love to answer each one individually, but there were just too many! God’s goodness overwhelms me all the time. He never stops giving and He never stops loving! He is such a good and wonderful God, how can we not “take up the cup of salvation” in gratitude to Him for all that He does for all of us?! And I thank YOU for allowing Him to act in and through you to pray for Paul and to let me know! I have been weeping in gratitude and love you all so very much! God will bless you abundantly in return for your generosity!

This Snippet is not going to be as wonderful as the last one since I have the sad news to share with you that Fr. James Blount will not be attending our conference. He has been fighting pneumonia since he was in England. Please keep him in your prayers that he will have a full recovery. We are so sorry that he cannot attend our conference, but even more sorry that he is ill.

But God never wants us disappointed in the least, so he is sending two very special Priests to our conference.

First is Fr. Julio Rivera, has been a very dear friend of the Center’s and is a great lover of the Book of Heaven and of Luisa for years! Fr. Julio has a wonderful and very powerful gift of healing, and he loves to heal and bring people into full communion with God!

Second is Fr. Ignatuis Okoroji, S.D.V., of Nigeria and who founded the Communitas Mater Domini, Community of the Mother of the Lord. Fr. Ignatius has a very powerful healing gift as well and from what I have heard, but can’t verify, there was a prophecy that said that during the end times a community would be found which would be called, Community of the Mother of the Lord. He has a regular talk on Radio Maria and has a podcast. He is also very interested in the writings of Luisa. Praise God! I can’t find the email of the person who is bringing Father Ignatius. Please write to me if you receive this. Thank you!
I know God has some very special plans for the conference and I am so excited to find out what they are. Sending these two very special Priests to us in lieu of Fr. Blount is no accident. This is God’s plan for the conference!

Our Lord helped me understand something I think is important enough to share with everyone. I was getting very involved in politics (seems to be my weakness) in the government and in the Church with the new Synod coming in a few days. He helped me to realize that He is the Creator of all things…the universe, the world we live in and His very own Church. He is in control of it all! Everything will work out the way He has destined them to work out. He let me know that I am to take care of my business (that of living always and constantly in His Holy Will, praying in His Will for everything and every soul as well) and He will take care of His business, which is the world and the Church. It was so clear to me that it was easy to let go and let God! There’s nothing we can do about it anyway, except do our acts constantly in the DW, which does everything and contains everything and everyone! Fiat always!

This morning when I was praising God for so many blessings and graces He gives to everyone and all that He does take care of us, especially sending these two wonderful Priests to the conference! He allowed me another insight that was so beautiful and powerful, but from such a caring and loving God! Every time we call the DW to reign in us, we have in a most powerful way, a most Loving Mother, a most Caring Father, a Powerful Savior and a Sanctifying Holy Spirit, who declares His thoughts to men. With these reigning in our souls, of whom should we be afraid? No one nor anything! I wish I could help everyone understand the power within us and the love and care with which God looks after us and wants only what is best for each one of us. We can have them powerfully reigning within us constantly and all we have to do is one thing! One little, tiny thing! Give up self!

I have to laugh because that is so much easier to say than to do. But it is something we must strive for and work on daily!

I am sorry, I am off again on a tangent! So sorry! I pray you will not let Fr. Blount’s situation keep you from coming to the conference. I promise it’s going to be a fantastic conference! Although we will miss Fr. Blount a lot! May God heal him completely and totally so that we may experience him and God’s healing grace through him at another venue.

Remember we love all of you so very much and keep each of you in our daily prayers! And May God show you His power to care for you and to love you beyond your imagination in His Will!

Courage belongs to resolute souls. Six angels with Jesus at the head. Acts done in the Divine Will are tokens of infinite value; eternal links; chains that can never be broken.

HAPPY AND HOLY FEAST OF ST MICHAEL, ST GABRIEL, ST RAPHAEL,
THE WONDERFUL AND HOLY ARCHANGELS!

DIVINE ACTS!

Dear Divine Will Family,

Well, this seems like a wonderful day to write again. I will not waste your time on all that I have been involved in since I last wrote, but I have been very busy. I will summarize it to say, please continue to pray for my son, Paul, who is terminal and with whom I have spent a lot of time since my return to Florida from the fabulous retreat in Garabandal.

Talking about a fabulous retreat. It reminded me of the vision I had about the Kingdom to God and how souls will treat each other during that time. It wasn’t as perfect as what I saw, but almost! You could tell that these souls truly loved the Holy Will of God and wanted nothing but His Will in their lives, and they treated everyone as a child of God’s, with great respect, compassion and the love with which God loves each of us. You could tell that they were chosen by Our Lady and Our Lord for this pilgrimage. I can’t wait to find out whom they send next time!

Guy Murphy did a wonderful job of keeping the pilgrimage on time and for the souls to get as much out of it as possible. He was wonderful and you could tell that he was moved by Our Lady in all that he did. He invited the local Pastor, Don Rolando, to come to Mary’s House and give a talk on Garabandal. It was Divine Providence and proved to be so advantageous for Mary’s House and for the House of the Divine Will. He made it very clear to the villagers that we are a part of the village and that we were essential for the village. Not that the villagers treated us anyway but with respect and kindness, but this was the first time it was stated by the Parish Priest, and I think it really made an impression. I know it did on me!

It’s funny, the House of the Divine Will has been in the village for 24 years and never have we had any problem with the villagers! But times change and new people come in and some do not understand the ways of the village. But Don Rolando made everything very clear to all…the old and the new!

In my heart I knew this was a gift from Our Lady to make sure Her houses would remain unharmed in Garabandal, Spain!

I pray and hope that those who chose to come next May, or even before, if you so choose, will experience the graces we experienced at this retreat and time in Garabandal, Spain!

Ann Weigel gave two very awesome talks which were excellent insights into the ways of life in the Divine Will. Everyone learned a lot from her talks. She’s going to be great at the conference!

We had two very wonderful and holy Priests with us as well. Fr. Peter and Fr. Bill, friends of Guy Murphy. They also gave some very good talks, although more on human sanctity than on Divine Sanctity. Fr. Peter seems very interested in the Gift of the Divine Will, praise God!

Praying that you will be joining us next time in beloved Garabandal, Spain. So many of the people who came were raving about their time there and the retreat. They all seemed to love it. God is so good!!

Remember, we love all of you dearly and keep each of you in our daily prayers! May God bless you with all the graces needed to remain always in His Holy Will! Fiat always! May we love God’s preferences more than our own!

Ann Ellison

PS: Because I am so busy with my son, Paul, I have given you a very short statement that Jesus gave to Luisa about Divine Acts. Just ponder this for a while….there’s a ton of graces and material in just this very short verse!

————————————————–

Volume 22
“My daughter, the littlest motion, even the littlest breath done in the Divine Will, is all of God; and because it is His own, He finds in it everything that is His. In the act done in my Divine Fiat He finds divine sanctity, He finds His light, He finds His goodness, His love, His power; that act lacks nothing of what belongs to God. Therefore, they can be called Divine Acts, which are the most beautiful, the holiest and the most welcome; and before these acts, all other acts, as good as they may be, lose their value, their taste, and can never please Me.
