At the last daily apparition to Jakov Colo on
September 12th, 1998, Our Lady told him that henceforth he would have one
apparition a year, every December 25th, on Christmas Day. This is also how it
was this year. The apparition began at 2:15 pm and lasted 10 minutes.
Afterwards Jakov transmitted the message:
“ Dear children, give the gift of your life to
me and completely surrender to me so that I may help you to comprehend my
motherly love and the love of my Son for you. My children, I love you
immeasurably and today, in a special way, on the day of the birth of my Son, I
desire to receive each of you into my heart and to give a gift of your lives to
my Son. My children, Jesus loves you and gives you the grace to live in His
mercy, but sin has overtaken many of your hearts and you live in darkness.
Therefore, my children, do not wait, say ‘no’ to sin and surrender your hearts
to my Son, because only in this way will you be able to live God’s mercy and,
with Jesus in your hearts, set out on the way of salvation.”
