Apparition of St Michael the Archangel and St Joan of Arc to Manuela Strack in Sievernich (Germany) on February 17, 2026:
I see a large golden ball of light floating in the sky above us, and a smaller golden ball of light to its right. The large golden ball opens, and St Michael the Archangel comes out of it. He is holding his sword and shield aloft toward heaven, and I see that his mantle is spread wide. (Personal note of Manuela: We had previously been praying the prayer of the protective mantle of the Archangel Michael [given in a previous message]. Now, in addition to his sword, he is also holding his shield aloft above us, and his cloak is spread wide for the first time.) He is dressed in white and gold like a Roman soldier and is wearing his golden princely crown. His mantle has a broach with a golden lion’s head. Now he holds out his shield to us, on which the prayer “Sancte Michael Archangele” is written in Latin. His request is that we pray this prayer. We pray:
Sancte Michael Archángele, defénde nos in práelio, contra nequítiam et insídias diáboli esto praesídium. Imperet illi Deus, súpplices deprecamur: tuque, Princeps milítiae caeléstis, sátanam aliósque spiritus malígnos, qui ad perditiónem animárum pervagántur in mundo, divína virtúte in inférnum detrúde. Amen. (St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.)
Saint Michael the Archangel says:
May God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit bless you! Amen. Beloved of Jesus, may the Word of God be your treasure! Where the Lord is proclaimed, all evil yields. In the Church, the Lord is proclaimed. She carries His salvation within Her. Thus, the proclamation of the Lord distinguishes itself from human wrongdoing. The Church has fallen into distress, yet the salvation of the Son of Man, the Son of God, continues to flow out from Her. You are so blessed with this source of salvation. You know that the Church has fallen into distress. Did the Lord not already proclaim this during His lifetime?
Now the smaller ball of light opens. I see Saint Joan of Arc coming out of this light. She is clothed in golden armor and is carrying her banner, on which “Jesus” and “Mary” are written. Saint Joan of Arc has a lily branch with white lily blossoms and buds (four open lily blossoms and three lily buds) on her breastplate, just as I have always described it. She comes to us and lays down her banner. Suddenly, she is holding the Vulgate in her hands.[1]The principal Latin version of the Bible, prepared mainly by St. Jerome in the late 4th century, and adopted as the official text for the Roman Catholic Church. She comes even closer and says:
Dear friends of the Cross, prepare your hearts and do not let the holy forty days go by without repentance in your hearts. Jesus wants to touch and move your hearts. Pray hard for peace! You know that the evil one wants to draw you into a war. Therefore, pray hard!
Now Saint Joan of Arc opens the Vulgate and goes to Saint Michael the Archangel and kneels before him. I see the open Bible passage Matthew 13:24–30:
Another parable he put before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field; but while men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. So when the plants came up and bore grain, then the weeds appeared also. And the servants of the householder came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then has it weeds?’ He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ The servants said to him, ‘Then do you want us to go and gather them?’ But he said, ‘No; lest in gathering the weeds you root up the wheat along with them. Let both grow together until the harvest; and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, Gather the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my barn.’” (Matthew 13:24-30)
Saint Joan of Arc continues:
Friends of the Cross, know that there are always weeds among the wheat. The chaff separates from the wheat. This is the time in which you are living. [2]cf. When the Weeds Begin to HeadIt is not the grain that is the error, but the weeds and the chaff. Therefore, remain steadfast! Your confession of faith in the Lord, in Jesus, is important! How important it is for the Church, for humanity, for your future! Remember: every prayer, every blessing, every offering of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass diminishes the power of evil.
Now she looks at Saint Michael the Archangel. Saint Michael the Archangel shows me the continent of Africa and says:
Pray especially for persecuted Christians! The spirit of the age (Zeitgeist) is twisting your hearts in Europe. Yet here, people profess [their faith] and suffer because they love Jesus.
Saint Michael the Archangel pierces the soil of Ukraine with his sword. Then he looks at all of us and says:
Offer the Precious Blood of Christ for Ukraine in the coming time. It is important that you sacrifice and pray for peace!
St Michael the Archangel speaks to me personally, and I am to remain silent.
If She [the Church] continues to follow the spirit of the age, nature will rise up. Therefore, pray hard!
(Personal note of Manuela: Here he is talking about the Church of the spirit of the age.)
Remember that I have come to you from the Lord’s Throne in order to comfort and strengthen you. I say to you again: do not be afraid! Live in Jesus! He will bestow exceedingly great graces upon you, for this time of tribulation in which you are living is also a time of His great work. You have received from God the gift of free will. Out of love, He gave it to you, and so it is that you may choose Him: to be a grain of wheat, or choose against Him, and become weeds and chaff. Remember that the Lord would like to save you for eternal life, so that you may be with Him!
St Michael the Archangel blesses us with his sword:
May God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit bless you! Amen. Deus Semper Vincit! (God always conquers!)
Then he places his right foot on the printed prayers for protection by his mantle, and I am allowed to touch his foot. As he does so, he tells me that people do not know what power they have in front of them, what great power of love!

Why Manuela Strack?

Through what became The Spiritual Diary, Jesus and Mary taught Elizabeth, and they continue to instruct the faithful in the divine art of suffering for the salvation of souls. Tasks are assigned for each day of the week, which involve prayer, fasting, and night vigils, with beautiful promises attached to them, laced with special graces for priests and the souls in purgatory. In their messages, Jesus and Mary say that The Flame of Love of the Immaculate Heart of Mary is the greatest grace given to mankind since the Incarnation. And in the not-so-distant future, her flame will engulf the entire world.

Thirdly, the messages have frequently been accompanied by visible phenomena, photographic evidence found in In Cammino con Maria, which cannot be the fruit of subjective imagination, notably the presence of the stigmata on Giselle’s body and and the appearance of crosses or religious texts in blood on Gisella’s arms.

of the saints. It wasn’t until she became a “Daughter of Mary” that the nightmares finally ceased at the age of eleven. In the following year, Jesus began to speak interiorly to her especially after receiving Holy Communion. When she was thirteen, He appeared to her in a vision that she witnessed from the balcony of her home. There, in the street below, she saw a crowd and armed soldiers leading three prisoners; she recognized Jesus as one of them. When He arrived beneath her balcony, He raised his head and cried out: “Soul, help Me!” Deeply moved, Luisa offered herself from that day on as a victim soul in expiation for the sins of mankind.
immobile, rigid-like state that appeared almost as if she were dead. It was only when a priest made the sign of the Cross over her body that Luisa regained her faculties. This remarkable mystical state persisted until her death in 1947—followed by a funeral that was no little affair. During that period in her life, she suffered no physical illness (until she succumbed to pneumonia at the end) and she never experienced bedsores, despite being confined to her little bed for sixty-four years.
