Dear children, rejoice, for your names are already written in Heaven. The glories of this world will pass away, but what my Lord has reserved for the righteous will never pass away. Seek the Treasures of Heaven. My Jesus loves you and is waiting for you. I am your Mother, raised to Heaven in body and soul. The Lord filled me with His Grace, and I was faithful regarding all that He entrusted to me. As I have said in the past, my body was not affected [1] by death, but was raised to Heaven to the Presence of my Jesus by the angels.

I ask you to keep the flame of your faith alight. Your path is full of obstacles, but the Lord is always with you. In the most difficult trials, He will act and show His strong arm. Testify to the Gospel. Do not be afraid. Imitate the example of John, who, even in the midst of great persecution, did not retreat; taken, tortured, and brought to the Island of Patmos, he remained faithful to my Son Jesus. Often you are unable to understand the Mysteries of God, but do not retreat. No matter what happens, My Jesus will always be present in your lives. John was chosen to write mysterious things. He was allowed to contemplate my meeting with Jesus — a definitive and eternal meeting. Know that I love you and intercede for you. What you still cannot understand will yet be revealed. The book remains open. This is the message I give you today in the name of the Most Holy Trinity. Thank you for having allowed Me to gather you here once more. I bless you in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen. Be at peace.

↑1 The theological question of whether Our Lady died before the Assumption remains open in the Western Church, although not in the East where the term “Dormition” is used and Mary’s physical death is clearly affirmed (Byzantine Liturgy, Troparion, Feast of the Dormition, August 15th). The Portuguese atingido can be translated in various ways (“touched” is another possibility): while it certainly implies that the Virgin Mary’s body did not undergo the effects of death, i.e. corruption, it does not necessarily mean that the Virgin Mary did not die physically. Although a previous Assumption message received by Pedro Regis in 2019 says that Mary did not experience death, the separation of body and soul (which we normally associate with death) prior to the Angelic transport of her body does seem implicit in the message of August 15, 2021. If Mary did indeed “die” before the Assumption of her body, Church Tradition suggests that this was a unique death, just as her Immaculate Conception was unique. A possible interpretation of the present words to Pedro Regis could be that the Virgin’s soul was raised ecstatically before bodily death and that her “dead” but incorrupt body was subsequently reunited with her soul in Heaven. This would be consonant with Maria Valtorta’s account of the Assumption in the closing pages of the Poem of the Man-God — an account in which the Angelic transport of Our Lady’s body, as well as John’s witnessing of the Heavenly reunion of Jesus and Mary, are also mentioned — and may be the reference Our Lady mentions here where she says, “as I have said in the past”. —Translator’s notes
