Vassula Gives Pope Benedict XVI the Messages of True Life in God

January 2008

In 1987, the Lord showed Vassula in a dream a giant wave that

caused much devastation. She asked our Lord why this had to hap-

pen and if it could be stopped. He answered, “I am known as a God

of Love, as well as a God of Justice….Tremendous amendments

are required now from all of you. Uniting and being one.” Vassula

says Christ warned us several times about the Tsunami in Asia on

the 26th of December, 2004...this was the first warning.

On November 28, 2009, the Anniversary of True Life in God and five months prior

to the Eyjafjallajokull Volcano eruption (shown right), The Lord, in His loving

Mercy, asked us to address Him with this prayer. This is a reminder that with sin-

cere prayer for God’s mercy we can help the world to mitigate natural disasters;

We should recite it daily:

"Tender Father, lash not Your wrath on this generation, lest they perish alto-

gether; Lash not on Your flock distress and anguish, for the waters will run dry and

nature will wither; all will succumb at Your wrath leaving no trace behind them;

the heat of Your Breath will put aflame the earth turning it into a waste!

From the horizon a star will be seen; the night will be ravaged and ashes will fall as

snow in winter, covering Your people like ghosts; take Mercy on us, God, and do

not assess us harshly; remember the hearts that rejoice in You and You in them!

Remember Your faithful and let not Your Hand fall on us with force, but, rather in

Your Mercy lift us and place Your precepts in every heart. Amen"

25th Anniversary Message of True Life in God 11/28/2008 Dear TLIG Readers Worldwide,

Today marks the 25th Anniversary of the True Life in God Messages. It was November 28, 1985 when Vassula received her first

Message from Heaven. Since that time, she has received nearly 2000 published Messages which are now translated in more than 40 lan-

guages. Vassula has been invited by and traveled to 76 countries in 6 continents - from the small, remote lands of the Faroe Islands to the

Philippines where she spoke to almost a half a million people in one meeting. She has delivered 932 meetings to date and the mission

continues today.

At the request of God, Vassula has tirelessly worked to spread Christian Unity. She and other TLIG volunteers have organized 7

International Ecumenical Pilgrimages where people from several Christian denominations come together to live and practice Unity. The

most recent Pilgrimage in Greece in 2009 had more than 800 people from 17 denominations and about 100 clergy members, including

Cardinals, Archbishops and Bishops.
