10 Years Ago

Excerpt from the Daily Message Book

July 5, 1998

Mary speaks: I am you Mother, I wish my message to be played from this location that all will hear me, I am the Lady Clothed with the Sun. I lead you to the Light of the World, my Son Jesus. He will be alive in your hearts through the consecration, recitation of the rosary. I tell you to observe the First Saturday practices especially from this location and console your God. All efforts should be made to do this. Spread my peace plan to this world. I give this to you. My Son gives His message for the earth. Circulate the Falmouth card that men will know, if you do not heed the signs and warnings given, greater and greater sufferings will occur to get the attention of the people. The fires are very small compared to all that could be done to stop the children from sinning. The sign is given on the building, you have ignored me one more time. I am your Mother, please my children, listen.

Fr. Carter

Excerpt from July 4, 2005

Messenger:         11 Years Ago on July 4, 1994
                                I prayed with my 2 children
                                in front of the Lady of Grace statue
                                as I was told to do from a message from Jesus.

                            On July 5th I went to the Holy Spirit Center to pray
                                and there were people around the Lady of Grace statue
                            and myself and my children went to the back
                                of the now rosary chapel
                                at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center.

                            At one point the Sorrowful Mother statue
                                was in the hall at the Holy Spirit Center,
                                the hall where the end of the building finally fell off.

                            My children and I knew a deep connection
                                to the statue.
                                She held an orange rose
                                which smelled strongly
                                of the rose scent.

                            We felt so drawn to the statue
                                and her presence
                                 that we would drive to the Holy Spirit Center,
                                the old seminary, nightly,
                                and pray the rosary
                                by the window
                                close to where she was.

                            On July the 5th, 1994
                                people were praying before Our Lady of Grace
                                in the chapel
                                and I went with the 2 children to the
                                back of the chapel to pray.

The 4th Blue Book is a tremendous gift
from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

On July the 5th, 1994 Mary appeared at the end
of the rosary that my children and I prayed.

                            I was so weak after the apparition
                                I could barely walk from the place
                                and my young daughter of about 15
                                accounted the apparition in her handwriting
                                as we drove away as I dictated to her.
                                 My son was 10.

                            There were 3 of us like Fatima
                                but Fr. Carter would soon join us July 10, 1994
                                daily and he did this
                                for many months.

Now I account to you the importance of the 5ths.
This was indeed the 1st 5th, July 5, 1994.

Here is another writing about this.

Excerpt from the Red Rosary Book

An Explanation Of What Is To Follow

Messenger: ,,,On July 4, 1994 I prayed with the children in front of the Our Lady of Grace statue in the sanctuary. On July 5, I recorded our experiences. The statue of Mary continued to glow and come alive. Jesus and Mary told Fr. Carter to pray with the children and me on July 10.

I would see Mary glow. Several weeks later I realized she was appearing in the statue as "Our Lady of Light." She then began to say she was appearing as "Our Lady of Light." She would show me a parade of faces, her clothes would all turn glistening white, and her attire would change. She would appear as a parade of different ladies. Her veils and head coverings would change. She has appeared as many different Marys. Her emotions have varied, her age has varied and her clothing has varied. She has shown me her life in the rosary. In the rosary, we meditate on the lives of Jesus and Mary, from Their young lives to Their older lives, from Their sorrows to Their joys. She takes on many roles as our mother, her mantle forever covering and protecting us.

July 5, 1994 6:30 p.m.

I was told to go to Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center to pray the rosary with my children. There were people in the front of the church, so we decided to pray the rosary in the back before the Sorrowful Mother statue. I had the following vision at the end of the rosary.

The statue of the Sorrowful Mother was lit up as if she had fire around her. The light was very bright. Her whole gown was all-white, but the statue's gown is blue and pink. She was all aglow. It looked like the glow that comes off of a fire. Her face kept changing but remained totally sorrowful-the sorrow of an older woman. She was in such pain and sorrow! (It was hard to explain how she looked-extremely pained!) Her face looked as though she was in such pain that she could hardly bear it.

The vision remained like this for about ten minutes, having begun during the last Hail Mary of the Sorrowful Mysteries of the rosary. She was holding something-it was all bright white-the brightest light ever!
