I was baptized, confirmed, and recieved my 1st eucharist on May 18th! Please pray for me!

Fasting is incredible octane for prayer. I started fasting Wednesdays and Fridays a few years back. The graces that came from that were amazing. I not only got prayers answered, I got other little “gifts” I didn’t even know I needed!

Gabi and anyone else reading this please pray for a little baby boy named Slater. I don’t know him or his family but I saw in a friend of a friends post that he’s close to death after an accident. Please pray for Gods will be done for if he passes away he could be an organ donor. And please pray for all children in all hospitals throughout the world. St. Jude pray for us! 🙏🏻 Edit: Our Lord has taken Slater to His heavenly kingdom today. Thank you for all the prayers for him and his family. Thy Will be done 😔🙏🏻 💐

I am praying a novena for my aunt that she converts. Please pray! even one Hail Mary helps

I've actually decided a few weeks ago that I will be fasting 40 hours weekly starting Friday 3pm until Sunday morning. I haven't actually started yet but this video has motivated me. I have a lot of areas in my life that need fasting and prayer.

You've walked the walk and talked the talk! Your testimony has truly changed me! All of your videos are phenomenal! Thank you for sharing your love of Jesus and the Blessed Mother with us! May God bless you always! ❤❤❤

I love the FFI!!! When I used to live in Connecticut I had 2 friends who were 3rd order Franciscans with them and they used to organize Day With Mary one day retreats with Friars at different parishes in our diocese. You won't get any fluff when they come to your parish and preach, 1000% solid Catholic teaching!!!!

Bro, im a baby Catholic (1 year at the feast of the Sacred Heart) and your videos have had a huge impact on my heart. It goes beyond the intellectual understanding of the content. I can't quite explain it, except to say that God is capturing my heart through the stories, testimonies and teaching you're putting out. Thank you for your efforts

You are truly Mary's son! Your videos are truly inspiring. May Mary continue to use you in a powerful way. 🙏

Whoa.... Gabriel I was going to fast tomorrow, anyways, because I am in a desperate situation... You shared this video right on time for me to ask more Grace from God... Thank you bro...

Carnivore for 10 months..74 year old.My husband and I have been fasting on Fridays now for several years. Just water.I have been going 40 hours recently .

I completely Agree, Beautiful and Well Said !!! In January 1991, I went to Medjugorje and I wasn't a Catholic yet, had to wait till Easter to be brought into the Church. So, I learned fasting while I was in Medjugorje, already knew about mental prayer. God Bless You, Gabby !!!

If gabi likes this I will be very happy ( praise be to God through immaculate u changed my life)

That’s how I’ve been praying the rosary! I’ve been makin it mental prayer !

I found this to be true. The old Latin tradition is to fast every day during Lent, even Sundays until 3 p.m. No meat, eggs, or dairy throughout Lent. Then, also, throughout the year, every quarter, there are ember days. Three days to pray and fast for our priests.

Thank you so much Gabi. I ask for prayers from all who can help. For an 8 yo girl, Anastasia, who’s suffered for many years (abusive parents) and now she’s in more danger bc social workers are taking unethical decisions. Please pray decisions will change so she can be safe and not sent away abroad. Thank you!

Thank you Gaby, this video was an answer to my prayers. I had an abusive husband for 8 years who is a narcissist. Till this day, even after the divorce, he still enjoys harrasing me and poisoning my 7 year old son against me. I have been praying the 4 rosaries for a while and fasting one day a week but he still won't leave me or my son alone. Hurting & manipulation makes him feel alive. I will definitely do the 40 day fasting & mental prayer. Thank you again for all you do. The fire you have in your heart for Jesus & Mary it's contagious ❤

I NEEDED to hear this. Thank you, Gabi :)

I’m giving a testimony talk today in youth group. 😭 I’m nervous.

I love this video and also Mary in Medjugorje said that She wants us to fast every Wednesday and Friday anyway

Gabi I’ve always tried to imagine the scene of whichever decade I’m praying years before I knew about mental prayer, but recently I’ve been trying to pray 4 rosaries a day (to beat a mortal sin) but in order to do that I pray the rosary while driving to/from work as that’s the only time I have - it’s hard to concentrate on the road and be so focused on each mystery 😂 surely god understands that I’m doing my best?

I love that you are making the videos in spanish! I have always wanted to share your videos to my fiends and family but they are all spanish speakers. Thankyou for doing that. I'm praying for you Gabi!

Thank you, Gabi, for all that you do. I see the hand of our Lady in all your work. I always anticipate your video every week. May the Holy St. Michael protect you and your family.

I have been attending the Franciscans of the Immaculate chapels daily for many years now. ( M.A.& C.T.) I will be making my Marian Vow in November with their third order. I can say my spiritual life has grown in ways I could never even imagine. Consider attending a Day with Mary with the Friars or attending one of their locations, you will not be disappointed. Ave Maria!

I used to use electrolytes when fasting too. They’re a game changer.

You have always been a mentor sent by God to me Gabriel May the blessed virgin continually interceed for you

Beautiful advice. Thank you!

Thank you, Gabi!!!!

Please pray for me and my family Gabi. Especially for my daughter Nila who has an NF1 diagnosis

You always help me push myself further!! Thank you!

Thank you Gabi, I needed this video. I'm in a spiritual emergency, my faith needs a boost. God bless you! 🙏

Thank you for the SPANISH CHANNEL!!! GOD BLESS U!!!!

Thank you for sharing this valuable guidances. I can feel they are sustained by Grace, probably because you are applying into your life what you are saying. Really helpful, glory to God!

Thank you Gabi

I use to do 3, 7, 21, or 40 day water fasts as a Pentecostal pastor. Taking nothing but water. I couldn’t do it nowadays. But I thank God for his Holy Church to bring balance and harmony. I’m also in the MI. God bless you brother Gabi! Ave Maria

Thanks!

Thank you Gabriel for creating this video full of indispensable advice. I really needed to hear this message today because I feel hopeless and I definitely need God’s graces right now. If you find time in your busy schedule, please say a prayer for me. I would really appreciate it. God bless you Gabi!

I love the channel and what you do with the Franciscan Friars I go to there church in New Bedford and i remember when Father Matthias and Father Josemaria were there. I hope you keep up the great work. May the Lord bless you and Our Lady keep you!!

Thank you Gabriel, i wish this marian mission will get to our country.I believe and pray for. 🙏.

Thank you gabi

Providentially timely. I was looking for the number of hours that makes sense to me in fasting for spiritual purposes. Additionally, refreshers on mental prayer are food for my soul. 😌 This video is a concise resource for a spiritual plan of offense. Saving this not only for reference, but will be implementing the content in my life for transformation for myself and those I love ❤ Thank you, @Gabi

Gabi and Fr Matthias = a Marian powerhouse! Always inspired to love Our Lady and Our Lord better through you two. God bless you!

Please pray for baby Jonah 👶🏻 who has sleeping problems, for Victoire who has her oral exams 🗣️ , for a mother who’s pregnant 🤰🏻and all the sick.

❤THANK YOU ❤GOD BLESS YOU ❤🙏🙏🙏

Dear Gabi, Time and again, I return to your channel to hear your brotherly voice. Looking to listen to your loving words of perseverance. Today is one of those days....thank you once again for helping me, through God's grace. to refocus in these times of so much uncertainty. God bless you and your family.

God bless everyone. Amen

Thanks be to God. Please pray for my intentions

Gabi sir your information is very useful for me 1. Fast and pray for 40 hours depending on the individual's ability 2. Pray the rosary with mental awareness Please make video about blessed Carlo Acutis ❤ Thanks Gabi sir and prayers for you

At the Solemnity of Pentecost I got fully baptized into the Holy Spirit. No kidding. I'd never been to this mass as a Catholic. 2 yes ago I got confirmed. Anyways when our priest was going around the Cathedral and splashing Holy water on us as the Most Beautiful prayer/hymn was being sung I got hit from behind with the water and I felt it pierce me through and as it pierced it shoved out the negative that has held me in thrall. I am free. I am 70 years old and He gave me back myself. The person I was always supposed to be and I'm so humbled. This mental prayer got me here. Perseverance. The woman being stoned for adultery at the Temple in front of our Lord was who I used to be and worse. God is Live and He is real and He wants to give Himself to us. Please let Him.

Excelente 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Thank you so much for your content. It is life saving. I ask for your prayers for my daughter Veronica suffering from insomnia causing anxiety and depression. I pray for the grace of mental health for her and I ask for community prayer thru the Immaculate Heart of Mary for her healing. In Jesus name I pray. Amen

10:57 Thank you Gabi. Following your advice in another video, my wife and I have started praying four rosaries daily. Fasting is something that has been very hard for me to do, but listening to you. I am going to give it another try. Also, I am completely bilingual with Spanish. Let me know if I can help with your Spanish translations.

What if people can't actually form an image in their mind for mental prayer?

Fasting in adoration nonstop except restroom and 2 Masses per day is excellent while praying Liturgy of Hours and full Rosary in Latin. Highly reccomended! Yes we all have excuses... but we either do it or don't. The Light of Eternity will shine forever on our choices now... Pax Christi+ 🙏📿✝️⛪️🌎😇

I do intermittent fasting, and fast almost every day. It is incredible for good health of mind and body. And before an importnat situation, I pray "Come Holy Spirit, Come".

Thank you for posting this video Gabriel !❤ I’ve been wanting to fast Wednesdays and Fridays. I have tried in the past and then I give in when I get hungry. If I want to fast for 40 hours first, when exactly do I take the electrolytes? Mother Mary loves you!!

I recommend reaching out to Alex from Voice if Reason for a Spanish collab 🙏

Gabi, is life supposed to get harder when you pray the rosary and consecrate your life and children to Mary? I have found that since praying the rosary every day my life has had more suffering, my children’s lives in terms of their hobbies and sports achievements have gotten worse, I have gotten even more depressed than I already was. My attempts at trying to volunteer for our local parish and even try to get to talk with my local priest are not happening so I figured at least help from the church would be easier to be available. No, that hasn’t happened either. I pray for guidance every day but my life just keeps getting worse and worse. Is suffering one of the things you gain when you become more devoted? Suffering in this world? I am asking honestly because I just don’t know anymore. My life before finding Jesus was depressing, terrible and full of suffering. After finding Jesus for the first few weeks it felt like things might actually change but now, two months into praying the rosary and trying to learn as much as I can about the faith my life is exactly if not worse than where it was when I began my journey. Is this a normal occurrence? Are we supposed to give up on ever achieving anything in this life in order to be more holy? To be acceptable to God? Because that’s the conclusion I am coming to now. I am even more isolated and alone than I was before starting this journey as the few people I had in my life think I’m crazy for even believing in the power of God. Which is fine, but I figured I would find people or at least one person in real life that actually followed Jesus in the Catholic faith. It’s easy to say, well I have Jesus and Mary so I’m not alone. I’m pretty sure as humans we are meant to have other humans around us too. Otherwise why even bother allowing us to experience this life? I am not trying to fight anyone or be mean but this is where my feeble mind has led me. I am completely lost. More lost than ever.

I fast 18-24h before my chemotherapy treatments. The longest I've ever done was somewhere ~38h. I was going for 48 but couldn't make it :/ It's hard for me to fast because my wife is overweight so she loves food, and I also don't like seeing food going to waste in my fridge.

That vaporwave intro music >>>

Hi @ Gabi, yourr teachings are so great. Should one be taking these electrolytes att the end of the fast or in between, say if you are fasting 24 hrs, 36hrs or 40 hrs.? Be blessed as you continue teaching us the Lord's ways.

Gaby a donde puedo enviarte una invitación para un retiro de jovenes. Gracias espero veas este mensaje . Virgen María Santísima, ayudame a que vea este mensaje.

Hi Gabi, do you know where I can get those images that you had of Jesus with the crowning of thorns and the one of our lady holding jesus?

Ave Maria!

🙏🙏🙏🌟

Pray for my nephew, Rio De Ramada.. He's now in prison for drugs possession offence .. pray for my dearly nephew. Dear Mother Mary be our mother..

Gabi, I’d like to try fasting. I’m prediabetic and if I go quite a while without eating I get really shaky and my blood sugar gets a little low. I’m not on medication but control it with diet. What else can I do? I’m doing 4 rosaries a day and your consecration to Mary.

Hey Gabi! What do you recommend for someone who has blood sugar problems and is breastfeeding their baby? Should I get off of my phone 40 hours instead? Thank you!

God bless you, Gabi! Can you please resend the vital reply that you sent a month or so ago per my comment? I am not tech savvy so I couldn't copying & it was a long vital gift of intuition that was blessed for you to tell me. I truly need to read it again & pray. Thank you for you generous devotions & help to Shepherd us Home❤

So should I completely just not eat anything those 40 hours. I’m asking to be crystal clear not to complain or anything. This might be a dumb obvious question but should I fast from nicotine and caffeine also in addition to not eating. And just to be clear it is completely from any food whatsoever correct. A final question is that I have to take my multivitamin with iron everyday but it says take with food. When I have taken it without food, I get nauseous, but that is the worst part of it so it’s not like I go into shock or pass out. So should I eat a piece of bread for that or should I purposely get the nauseousness and also offer that up. I am asking these things so I have a clear task and purpose with very defined guidelines and so I know not to divert from it.

Thanks very much for sharing. Please, I need you to remember me in your prayers. I'm actually suffering from a habitual sins of the flesh currently 😢 Any advise for me?

Hi Gabi, I need a guidance for praying entire rosary a day. Please tell me how to pray Litiny ? I should pray Litiny after each rosary with other prayers ?

Amen

Praise God!! Please translate the Total Consecration to our Lady videos in Spanish whenever possible so we can share with the members of our family who don’t speak English. Our Blessed Mother Mary keep guiding and praying for you all. God bless you and your families🙏🏽❤

@ Gabyafterhours How can my son attend to a retreat there? Thank you

So, how do I go about this 40hrs fast? I feel my kids are under attack spiritually. Hope to hear from you.

We need also material in Italian!

Gabi and everyone reading this please pray for little kamsiyo who has brain tumor and preparing for brain surgery

Could you please pray for my mother Eulalia she hasn't been well.
