Why is the final blessing at Mass important?

Message From Blessed Virgin Mary - 02/02/25 at 6pm

MARY:

My beloved children, I ask you never to leave the Holy Mass without receiving the final blessing of the priest. This moment, often overlooked, carries immense power. If you could see with the eyes of your soul, you would witness my Son, in union with the Most Holy Trinity, imparting grace through the priest, who acts in persona Christi.

My beloved priests, who stand before you, do not act by their own power but in persona Christi, in the very name and authority of my Son.

Through the sacred ordination the priest has received, he is conformed to Christ, the Eternal High Priest, and is entrusted with the mission of shepherding the flock, offering sacrifice, and dispensing divine blessings.

My Son Himself works through His priests, who are living instruments of His mercy and love. When the priest blesses you at the conclusion of Mass, it is Christ who blesses you, strengthening you and sending you forth to live the Gospel.

Always remember, dear children, that the priest lifts his hands not by his own authority, but by the power given to him through Holy Orders. May you take heed of my request and cherish this gift with reverence.

When you bow your heads in humble reception of this blessing, the peace of my Son descends upon you. You are sent forth as bearers of His love, His light, and His truth, strengthened to live your mission in the world. Never neglect this moment, for it is a gift from Heaven, a divine seal of grace preparing you for the journey ahead.

Go forth, my little ones, in the peace of my Son. May His blessing remain upon you always.

I bless you with my motherly love. Thank you for responding to my call.
