Radio Maria USA
Queen of the Saints
Dear Family of Radio Maria,
Greetings and peace to all as we enter the month of November. It is a month to remember the Saints and the Souls in
Purgatory, our brothers and sisters who make up the Communion of Saints with those of us on earth.
As you know, a big part of our mission here at Radio Maria
is to pray together and to share the many needs we have in the
Communion of the Saints—living and deceased. So, once again
we invite and welcome your own prayer intentions this month—
to remember in a special way your loved ones who have died in
our all Holy Masses, rosaries, and prayers.
In the opening prayer for the Solemnity of All Saints, we
pray: That God would bestow on us “through the prayers of so
many Intercessors, an abundance of the reconciliation with you
[God] for which we earnestly long.”
We ask the Saints and the Poor Souls to pray for us as well
in that “exchange of spiritual goods” which belongs to us as
members of Christ’s Mystical Body.
We ask the Saints in Heaven especially to pray for us and
those who have died so that we can all be reconciled in the
Kingdom of Heaven both while still here below and after we die.
This month we also celebrate our national holiday—Thanksgiving. We have so much to be grateful for in our country; and
yet so many of the freedoms for which we give thanks each year
are challenged and threatened today—especially our religious
freedom. While we give thanks this year, let us also re-commit
ourselves and our families to the values of life, liberty, and the
pursuit of happiness which we inherit as citizens of this country.
And we at Radio Maria give thanks for you— our family—and
for the all the generous ways you help to sustain this Mission of
Our Lady for the New Evangelization.
God bless and keep us all, and may the Souls of the Faithful
Departed through the mercy of God, rest in Peace. Amen.
Yours in Jesus and Mary,
Fr. Robert Young, O.F.M.
Father Robert Young, O.F.M.
Program Director, Radio Maria US

Monthly Messages from Our Lady
October 2, 2013 Message to Mirjana
“Dear children:
I love you with a motherly love and with a motherly
patience. I wait for your love and unity. I pray that you may
be a community of God’s children, of my children. I pray
that as a community, you may joyfully come back to life in
the faith and in the love of my Son.
My children, I am gathering you as my apostles and
am teaching you how to bring others to come to know
the love of my Son; how to bring to them the Good News,
which is my Son. Give me your open, purified hearts and
I will fill them with the love for my Son. His love will give
meaning to your life and I will walk with you. I will be with
you until the meeting with the Heavenly Father.
My children, it is those who walk towards the Heavenly
Father with love and faith who will be saved. Do not be
afraid. I am with you. Put your trust in your shepherds as
my Son trusted when He chose them, and pray that they
may have the strength and the love to lead you.
Thank you.”
October 25, 2013 Message to Marija
“Dear children!
Today, I call you to open yourselves to prayer. Prayer
works miracles in you and through you. Therefore, little
children, in the simplicity of
heart seek of the Most High
to give you the strength to
be God’s children and for Satan not to shake you like the
wind shakes the branches.
Little children, decide for
God anew and seek only His
will, and then you will find joy
and peace in Him.
Thank you for having responded to my call.”
RADIO MARIA IN THE OKTOBERFEST PARADE. Radio Maria volunteers participated in
the Minster (Ohio) Oktoberfest Parade recently.
In addition to riding on the float, RM volunteers
held a Bake Sale and Raffle during the threeday Oktoberfest (Oct. 4-6), netting more than
$4,200 for Radio Maria! Thanks to Roseann
and Clete Prenger, chairpersons of the Bake
Sale, for organizing the baked goods donations
and overseeing the volunteers who manned
the Bake Sale booth all weekend; and to Terri
Kemper, who organized the raffle and printed
and distributed all of the tickets. Another fundraiser, the Speedway Lanes Breakfast Brunch,
held this past weekend, is expected to raise
around $900 after the final count. Thanks to
Les Prenger, chairperson of the Brunch, for his
work in organizing the volunteers, working at
the event and selling tickets. (Photo courtesy

RADIO MARIA AT THE RAPIDES PARISH FAIR. Several volunteers
manned the Radio Maria booth at the Rapides Parish Fair throughout the
weekend of Oct. 11-13, giving out schedules, helping people download
the RM app, and selling tickets for the Immaculate Conception Sweepstakes for a free trip to either the Holy Land or to Medjugorje.
A FAMILY GATHERING IN NEW YORK CITY. Fr. Robert Young traveled to
New York City in early October to meet with RM President Carlo DiMaggio; Fr. Francisco Palacios, director of WF programming; other priests from
Canada; and members of Amigos, the Spanish RM network. “Our gathering was as warm and friendly as the weather,” said Fr. Robert. “It’s such a
blessing to belong to this great big family of Our Lady’s Radio.”

Comments from Listeners
“I listen to Radio Maria almost every day while I travel to work. I love
Our Lady’s Rosary, hearing the Mass,
Divine Mercy Chaplet and Liturgy of
the Hours. I just can’t get it all the time!
Thank you and please use this small
donation to keep all of your stations
on the air. -- Michelle from Louisiana
“Thank you and God for all the excellent teaching—but especially for the
teachings on the Divine Will.” -- Barbara
from Minnesota
“While driving to Houston, Texas,
I discovered Radio Maria. I was on my
way to visit my son who is in the hospital being treated for leukemia. I was
strolling through different channels and
came across your station out of Lake
Charles, La. I was overjoyed to find
such a wonderful station. I said several Rosaries and listened to the Mass.
There was a beautiful Ave Maria song
that I would love to know the name. I
will start listening to the station as I
am travelling in southwest La. and try
to listen when I can on the computer
(Internet) or i-Phone (app).
Thanks. -- Lawrence from Louisiana
“Dear Fr. Young, -- Thank you for
Radio Maria. We are learning and growing in our Faith. Blessings to all of you.”
-- The Dupree family from Louisiana
“Dear Father Robert and all volunteers of Radio Maria, -- While sending
you my pledge for the 2013 Fall Mariathon, I would like to take this opportunity once again to thank you, from
the bottom of my heart, for your great
effort, your love, and your sacrifice, that
you are making for this mission to succeed. Thus far in this Fall Mariathon.
You have done an excellent job and I
hope it will be as successful as the previous year.
May God continue to bless all of
you and your families, and may the
Blessed Mother continue to guide us
on this journey to make Radio Maria as
successful in the U.S. as it is throughout the world.” -- Carlo DiMaggio, RM
president, NYC
