Garabandal, spain apparitions

 4 girl seers in 1961-65 

witnessed Apparitions of
Our Lady of Mount Carmel 

in San Sebastian

 de Garabandal, Spain

 where Our Blessed Mother

revealed that a world-wide

' WARNING ',

 ' MIRACLE '
and 

 CHASTISEMENT 
are being 

sent from GOD soon!   
 

 Jacinta was told

 by Our Blessed Mother

"that the WARNING

 would come
when conditions 

were at their worst."

Mari-Loli said that
The 'MIRACLE'
will happen within 1 year
after  The 'WARNING'. 

Since the day the girls learned

 of the punishment,

 which will come

 after the miracle, 

they have developed

 a spirit of sacrifice.  

They pray very much

 for sinners 

and for priests --

if priests are not
what they should be,
many souls will be LOST. 

Conchita has written:

"I cannot reveal what kind
 of punishment it is
except that it will be
a result of the
direct intervention
of GOD, 

 which makes it more terrible
and fearful than anything
we can imagine...

all catholics should
go to Confession
before the punishment

and all others should
REPENT of their SINS

...the PUNISHMENT
will come
after 

 the MIRACLE." 

 First Message given by
Our Blessed Mother
was on Oct. 18th, 1961.

On July 4th, 1961,
Most Holy Mary
gave a Message
to the children
and directed them
to make it known publicly
on Oct. 18th, 1961--

some 3,000 people flocked
to that rain-soaked village
that day to hear: 

"We must make
 many SACRIFICES,
 perform much PENANCE
and visit
 The BLESSED SACRAMENT
frequently.

But first,
we must lead good lives.

If we do not,
a CHASTISEMENT
will befall us. 

The CUP is
already filling up
and if we
do not change,

a very GREAT
CHASTISEMENT
will befall us." 

The CUP is
already filling up
and if we
do not change,

a very GREAT
CHASTISEMENT
will befall us."

Since the day

 the girls learned
of the PUNISHMENT,

which will come
after the MIRACLE,

they have developed
a spirit of SACRIFICE. 

They pray very much
for sinners and for priests
--if priests are not
what they should be,
many souls will be LOST. 

Conchita has written:

"I cannot reveal what kind
 of punishment it is
except that it will be
a result of the
direct intervention
of GOD,

which makes it more terrible
and fearful than anything
we can imagine...

all catholics should
go to Confession
before the punishment

and all others should
REPENT of their SINS

...the PUNISHMENT
will come
after  the MIRACLE." 

Jacinta was told by

 Our Blessed Mother

"that the WARNING

 would come
when conditions 

were at their worst."

Mari-Loli said that
The 'MIRACLE'
will happen within 1 year
after  The 'WARNING'.

On January 1,
(Feast of The Mother of GOD)
1965, Conchita had an Apparition
of Our Lady Who told her that on
June 18th--

the 4th Anniversary--
she would be given another
Message.

On that date, more than 2,000 people 

gathered in Garabandal-

-French, Germans, English, Italians, 

Americans, Polish and others were 

among those who joined the Spanish

including

Journalists & TV cameras

 from Italy and Spain.

Leaving her house at 11:30 p.m. 

Conchita walked to the road leading
to the Pines to the place called

the Cuadro.

  There she was rapt in 

ecstasy which lasted
16 minutes.

Saint MICHAEL  appeared
to her and delivered some words.

The only other person to see
Our Blessed Mother at
Garabandal was a 38-year old 

Spanish Jesuit Priest,
Fr. Luis Marie Andreu.

On Aug. 8th, 1961, Fr. Luis,
at The PINES,  saw
Our Blessed Mother
and was shown
the forthcoming
'Great MIRACLE'.

He was heard
to repeat 4 times:

'Miracle!'  'Miracle!'
 
The children in ecstasy
understood Our Lady
to say to him:

"You will soon be with Me."

Although he had no history
of serious illness,
he died that same night
of complete JOY !
 

His final words were:

"Oh!  What a sweet
  and lovely Mother
 we have in Heaven...

how happy I am...
 what a favor
 The Blessed Virgin
 has bestowed on me.

How fortunate we are
 to have a Mother
 like Her in Heaven! " 
 

"There is no reason to fear
 the Supernatural Life.
 The girls have given us
 an example of how
 we must act with
The Blessed Virgin.

There is no doubt
in my mind that
the things involving
the girls are true.

Why should
The Blessed Virgin
have chosen us? 

This is the happiest
day of my life!"

With these words,
Father Luis
bowed his head
and died.

Our Lady has said:

"that on the day
 AFTER the
'Miracle'
 his body
  would be found
 to be incorrupt."
 

Our Blessed Mother
showed special attention
and concern for all priests,
repeatedly asking that they
come to  Garabandal.

She gave the girls the ability
to recognize them even when
they came dressed as laymen,

 revealing the state of their souls. 

She taught the children
that priests were more
important even than angels
because by means of their
Ordination they have the
power to change bread
and wine into The
BODY and BLOOD
of Christ during
The Holy Sacrifice
of the Mass."

On Saturday, Nov. 13th, 1965

Conchita seen her last
Apparition of
Our Lady of Mt. Carmel
at Garabandal.

Here is the literal
translation from her letter:

"One day in church
 Our Lady told me
 in a locution that I
 would see Her
 on Saturday, Nov. 13th,
 at 'The Pines';

it would be a
special Apparition
to kiss the religious objects
so that I could give them
away afterwards.

I was anxious for this day
to arrive so that I could
see again
The Blessed Virgin
and The Child Jesus
Who have implanted
in my life the seed
of  GOD's  happiness.

It was raining but it
did not matter to me.
I went up to 'The Pines'
carrying with me
the many rosaries
which people had
given me to
distribute them...

As I was going up
I was talking to myself,
being sorry for my
defects, desiring not
to fall into them again,
for it gave me much
worry to appear before
The Mother of GOD
without wiping them out.

When I arrived at
'The Pines',
I began to take the
rosaries out and
heard a sweet Voice,
that of  The Virgin,

which you always 
distinguish among others,
calling me by my name.
I answered Her  'what?'
 
At that very moment
I saw Her with
The Child
in Her Arms.

She was  dressed as
usual and smiling.  
I told Her,

'I have come to
 bring You the rosaries
so that You can Kiss them.'

She said to me,
 'I can see it.'

I had been chewing gum,
but as I was seeing Her
I did not chew it;
I placed the gum
on a tooth.

She must have noticed
for She said,

 'Conchita why don't you
get rid of the chewing gum
 and offer it up as a
sacrifice for the
 Glory of  My Son?'

I, a bit ashamed
of myself, took it out
and threw it on
the ground.

She said afterwards,

  'Do you remember
   what I told you
   on your Saint's Day--
 that you would
 suffer much on earth?'

...now I repeat it to you.

Have confidence in Us."

Then I added,
 

'How unworthy I am. 
O Mother of us,
 of so many Graces 
 received through You,
 and now You have
come to me to help me
carry the little cross I have.' 

She said:

'Conchita, I am not
 coming only for you
 but I am coming for 
all My children,

with a desire to get them
closer to Our Hearts.'

She asked for the things
I was carrying.

'Give them to Me
so that I can kiss
 all you are carrying
 with you.'

And I gave Her
everything.
I was bringing with me
also a small Crucifix
which I gave Her to kiss.

She kissed it and said,

 'Put it in the Hands of
 The Child Jesus.'

And I did that and
He said nothing.

I said:
 'This cross I intend
 to take with me
 when I go to
  the convent.'

But He did not reply.

After kissing everything
She commented,
 
'My Son,
 through this Kiss,
will work wonders!
 
Distribute them
 to the others.'
 

'Of course I will do it.'

After all this She requested
that I tell Her all the petitions
for others which I had received.
 
She said,
 
     'Conchita, tell Me,
       tell Me things about
      My children.

I have all of them
  under My Cloak.'

And I commented,

 'It is too small
  and there is no room
  for all of us.' 
 

She smiled at this.

'Do you know, Conchita,
  why I did not come
  personally on June 18th
 to give you the Message
 for the world?
 

 Because it pained Me
to say it Myself,
 but I had to say it to you 
for your own good and,
if you fulfill it,
for GOD's Glory.
 
I  LOVE you very much
 and I desire your salvation;
to gather you all around
GOD The FATHER,
The SON and
The HOLY SPIRIT.

Conchita, won't you respond
to this?'
 
I said,
 'If I could be always seeing You,
 yes, but otherwise I can't
  because I am very bad...'

Our Lady added,

'You do ALL you can and
We will  HELP  you, 
as well as My daughters
Loli, Jacinta and Maricruz...'

She did not stay long with me.
She also said:

'This will be the last time
   you see Me here,
   but I will always be
   with all My children.'  

Afterwards She added,

'Conchita, why don't you
 go often
 to visit  My Son in
The Most  
 Blessed Sacrament?  
 
Why do you let yourself be
carried away by laziness
and not go to visit Him
Who is waiting for you
day and night?'

As I have written above,
it was raining hard.

Our Lady and The Child
did not get wet. 

 I was not aware it was raining

 while seeing Them,
but when I stopped seeing Them
I was soaked.  I also told Her,
 

 'Oh how happy I am when I
 see You.  Why don't You
 take me with You right now?
 She answered,
 

'Remember what I told you
 on your Saint's Day.
 

 When you go before GOD
 you must show Him your hands  
filled with GOOD WORKS
 done by you for your brothers
 and for the Glory of GOD;
 now your hands are
empty.'  

That's all.
I spent a happy moment with
my Mother from Heaven,
my best friend,
and with The Child Jesus.

I have stopped seeing Them
but not feeling Them close.

Again They have sown
in my soul
great  PEACE,  JOY and a
desire to conquer my defects
so that I will be able to love,

with all my strength,

The Hearts of
Jesus and Mary
Who LOVE us so much.'

Conchita ends with this:

"The Blessed Virgin Mary
 told me before that Jesus  
 does not want to send the 
 PUNISHMENT
  in order to distress us
 but in order to HELP us
  and reproach us
 because we pay
 no attention to Him.

And The WARNING
will be sent
in order to
PURIFY us
for The MIRACLE
in which He will show us
His Great LOVE,

and in order that
we may fulfill
the Message."

With this Apparition
of Our Lady, 

the cycle of Apparitions

 in Garabandal
  closed.

It will definitely

 be confirmed 

on a Thursday

 at 8:30 p.m. when
The 'MIRACLE'

 takes place.

This will mark

 the beginning of
a new ERA 

in the history of the

 Salvation of Mankind.

At the age of 16, Joseph Lomangino

from Lindenhurst, New York

 was blinded in a freak accident 

which also severed his 

olfactory nerve in1947.

In 1961, aged 31, on the advise

 of doctors, Joey took a vacation

 to Europe and visited the Monastery
of the famed Stigmatist
St. Padre Pio 

at San Giovanni Rotondo.

Joey returned to Italy in 1963; 

on the third day of his 2nd visit 

Joey knelt for Confession. 

 Padre Pio grabbed him

 by the wrist and said,
 
 "Joey, confess yourself."  
 
    "Bless me, Father,
      for I have sinned."

...the Priest interrupted him,
 
 "Joey, you're angry, eh?"
 
"No, Father, I work hard,
   I'm tired..."
 
  "No. no, Joey,
  you're angry, eh?"

As Joey searched his soul 

for unclouded truths, Padre Pio
raised his arms and said,

 "I call Jesus and Mary
 for you."

At that moment, he understood
that Padre Pio knew his soul.
 

Joey has said,
 

 "I felt deeply sorry
   for every SIN
 I'de ever committed,
 and I understood
 that GOD knew this
 and Padre Pio knew this,
 and I  was being
 absolved of all."

The Padre touched Joey's lips,
made him kiss the stigmated
hand, caressed him and said,

 "Joey, a little patience,
 a little courage and you're 
 going to be all right."

A few days later, Joey knelt with 

50 other men outside the cloister

 in the Rotondo waiting for Padre Pio 

to pass by when Joey threw his arms up

 plunging backward

 and noticed he could smell
THE SCENT OF ROSES!

Joey had been without the faculty
of smell since the accident--
he was amazed!

Suddenly, Padre Pio was next to him 

and grabbed him by the arm saying,

  "Joey, don't be afraid."

After 16 years, 

Joey was miraculously CURED
by the Grace of GOD
through Padre Pio.

Joey asked Padre Pio:
 
 "Father, is it true that
 The Virgin Mary
 is appearing to
     4 girls in Spain?

  The answer was simply "YES."
 
"Father, should we go
   to Garabandal?"

  The answer was again
simply  "YES."

Joey proceeded to Garabandal
and met the seers and befriended them

 becoming a promoter of Garabandal, 

reaching millions of people 

around the world, 

assisted by Padre Pio's prayers!

In 1967, Conchita had been
called to Rome by Cardinal Ottavianni, 

Prefect of the
Holy Office, now called the
Sacred Congregation for

 the Doctrine of the Faith. 

It was during this time that
Conchita had a private audience
with Pope Paul VI.

Since she had to wait one day to
see the CARDINAL, she visited Padre Pio

 at San Giovanni Rotondo.

Padre Pio had told Fr. Cennamo,
a fellow Capuchin, to give Conchitahis

 burial VEIL after his death,

 which he did.

Fr. Cennamo delivering the VEIL

 to Conchita said concerning
Padre Pio:

"He saw  The MIRACLE
 before he died.
 He told me so himself."
 

On March 3, 1962, PADRE PIO

wrote a letter, in Italian, and
sent it to the 4 Visionaries of
San Sebastian de GARABANDAL,
in which he states:

 "At nine o' clock this morning 
   The Holy Virgin told me
 to say to you:
 
'O blessed young girls of San 
 Sebastian de Garabandal.

 I promise you that I will be
 with you until the end of the 
 centuries, and you will be
 with Me during the end of 
 the world and later united 
 with Me in the Glory of
 Paradise."     

Padre Pio goes on to say,

"I give you only one Counsel:  

PRAY and make others PRAY, 
 

 because the world is at the
 beginning of PERDITION  
 

 where Cardinals, Bishops
 and Priests are on the road
 to perdition and are taking 
many Catholics with them. 

People do not believe in you  
or in your  
 CONVERSATIONS with   
THE LADY IN LIGHT,

 but they will BELIEVE 
when it is  TOO  LATE !!! "

Conchita is given the translated letter 

from Italian to Spanish by her

 high school language teacher, 

and she shows the letter to
OUR LADY of GARABANDAL.

The HOLY VIRGIN
said Padre Pio sent the letter.
St. Padre Pio was privileged
with Fr. Luis Andreu to witness
The MIRACLE before death. 

Maria Dolores (Mari-Loli) Mazon, 

one of the Garabandal Visionaries,

 suffered from Lupus and Scleroderma,

 which caused fibrosis
of her lungs, of which she died, 

at age 60, April 20th, 2009,

 leaving her husband 

Francis and children to
carry on the Mission.

St. Padre Pio died in 1968.
Most of his life he carried in
his body the STIGMATA--
Wounds of CHRIST--
which never 'healed'--
always remaining
bleeding open wounds.

Yet, MIRACULOUSLY,
upon his death,
his WOUNDS
immediately
closed  and  healed!  

 St. Pio (Francis) Pray for us. 

Interestingly, he was named
Francis, 

after the great Founder
St. Francis of Assisi--
who also had the Stigmata--

WOUNDS of  Our LORD 

JESUS CHRIST in his body.  

St. Padre Pio died 

on September 23rd, 1968.  

He repeated the words:

'Gesu, Maria...finally 'Maria!' 

Born on May 25th, 1887,
he received the Stigmata
(WOUNDS of CHRIST)
in 1910 and asked Our Lord
to hide the visible marks
yet keep the pain. 

These bloody WOUNDS

reappeared in 1918.

His baptismal name was
Francesco Forgione--
named after the Founder
St. Francis of Assisi
who also suffered the Stigmata

(WOUNDS OF CHRIST).

He suffered the Bloody WOUNDS

for 50 years after they reappeared
in 1918, and the wounds never healed 

(studied by numerous doctors)

yet, MIRACULOUSLY,
several days just before his death,  

the WOUNDS  covered over

  and healed!  

The awesome, AMAZING, 

wondrous WORKS of GOD
be PRAISED!
Now & Forever.   Amen.

Garabandal Seer 

Mari-Lolidescribes  Messages
of June 19th-23rd, 1962

"Although we continued to see

 The BLESSED VIRGINwe

 saw a great multitude

 of people who suffered greatly

 and SCREAMED in ANGUISH. 

The VIRGIN explained to us
how this great PUNISHMENT
would come, 

because there would come

 a MOMENT in time 

in which The CHURCH 

would seem to PERISH, 

 as if it were finished 

 or  disappearing.
 

The CHURCH would suffer 

a great TRIAL ! 

 We asked
The VIRGIN how this 

GREAT PUNISHMENT

 would be called 

and She said it

 was called 

 COMMUNISM.    

Also, She made us see how
the GREAT CHASTISEMENT
for all humanity 

would come

 and how it comes
directly from GOD.

In a certain moment
not a single motor or
machine will function. 

A terrible HEAT WAVE
will come,

 and men will
suffer 

a BURNING THIRST.

Desperately they will 

look for WATER

 but with the 

INTENSE HEAT

 it will  EVAPORATE.

With this there will enter into 

the people a DESPERATION
and they will attempt to
KILL each other,

but in those moments 

their strength will fail and they
will FALL to the ground.

GOD will then make them
see  that  IT IS HE  Who
has directly permitted all this.

Finally we saw a multitude
of people enveloped
in FLAMES

--desperately they 

threw themselves 

into the SEAS and LAKES but upon
entering the WATER
far from putting out the FLAMES
the WATER was BOILING

and seemed to help 

the FLAMES BURN more.

I asked The BLESSED VIRGIN

 to take all our children with Her. 

 But She said  that when this happens  

they will all be adults."

Regarding
 'The WARNING'

Conchita commented:

"...to me,
 it's like 2 STARS...
 

 that CRASH and
  make a lot of NOISE
 and a lot of LIGHT
 but they don't fall...
 
  it's something that's not 
 going to hurt us but
 we're going to see it.

 In that moment,
 we're going to
  see our conscience.
 
 You're going to see 
 everything wrong
 that you're doing...
 
 and you're going
  to see the good
 that you're not doing." 

Mari-Loli stated:

"...The WARNING

and The MIRACLE
are within the same year."

"To do much PENANCE,
 
 make SACRIFICES,
 
 visit  The BLESSED
 SACRAMENT  
 every day that
           we are able to,
 

  and  to PRAY
 The HOLY ROSARY
 daily."

The 'WARNING':

"It is going to be something
  like an interior feeling of
 SORROW and PAIN for 
 having OFFENDED GOD.

GOD will help us

 to see clearly the HARM
we are causing  HIM
and the EVIL things we do. 

He will help us to sense this

 interior PAIN because often 

when we do something wrong

 we just ask The Lord's forgiveness 

with our lips,

but now  (through The Warning)
 

HE will  help us
to sense physically
that deep sorrow."

"It would look like

 the COMMUNISTS 

would have taken over 

the whole world 

and it would be very hard

 to practice the religion,

for priests to say MASS 

or for people to open

 the doors of the churches...

whoever practices it will

 have to go into HIDING."

The MIRACLE:

"Yes, I know when the EVENT is. 

 It is a singular event in The Church

 that happens very rarely, 

and has never happened

 in my lifetime.  

It is not new or stupendous,

 only rare,

 like a definition of a DOGMA--

something like that in that

 it will affect the entire Church. 

It will happen
on the same day
as The MIRACLE,

only coincidentally
...March  to  May"

The REVELATIONS  given by
 Our Lady of The Roses 
at Bayside, New York, U.S.A.
which  confirm  the Apparitions
at GARABANDAL, Spain

Messages given to Veronica Lueken:

"The WARNING  
 which will be sent upon man

  must be effective;
 
 and in the MERCY
 of  The FATHER,

a GREAT SPECTACLE
    will then be placed
 in the SKY
 for  ALL  TO  SEE...
 
You must  cleanse
 your souls  of  all  SIN,  

MORTAL and VENIAL."

  Our Lady  December 24th, 1973

 
"My child,  many will SEE  
  and still not believe, 
 so great is the DARKNESS
  of the spirit. 
 
BELIEVE  what you SEE  
 at  GARABANDAL !"

"No, My child,
 it will not be 
 removed by mankind.

It has been 4 long years,
 but I promised you that 
 you would see this,
My child."

"The Forces,
 the EVIL FORCES,
 My child,  of 666
 will lead a band of fools  
against Garabandal."

"The MAJESTY
  of  GOD
 will be much evident
 at this time.

Should this great
 Miracle
 be cast aside
 and rationalized by
 atheistic, scientific man,

I assure you,
 My children,
 
 the Chastisement
  will come upon you
  with great FORCE!"

 

 Our Lady  July 15, 1974

"The HILL
  on the Meadow
 is a Holy Place.

 'C' will be there
 with the Holy Light,
 

a Flaming CROSS
 in Sword-like  
  formation."

Our Lady  March 24, 1972

4 girl seers in 1961-65 

witnessed Apparitions of
Our Lady of Mount Carmel 

in San Sebastian 

de Garabandal, Spain 

where Our Blessed Mother 

revealed

 that a world-wide

' WARNING ', ' MIRACLE '
and  CHASTISEMENT 

are being sent from GOD soon!   
 

It was The Blessed Virgin's
desire that this Message
be made known universally.  

Toward the end of the
Apparitions, Our Lady told
the visionaries that She was

displeased because Her First Message 

went unheeded,

therefore announced that
She would give a Second
and Final Message,

through the
intercession of
Saint Michael
The Archangel
on June 18th, 1965.

As the day arrived,
thousands from Spain
and many foreign countries
swelled the little mountain
village to hear this further

communication from
Our Blessed Mother Mary:

"As My MESSAGE
 of October 18th
 has not been
  complied with
 and has not
  been made known
 to the world,

I am advising you
 that this is
 the last one. 

Before,  the CUP
 was filling up, 
 now it is
 FLOWING OVER. 

Many Cardinals,
many Bishops  
and many Priests
are on the road
to PERDITION

and are taking
many souls
with them. 

Less and less
importance is
being given to
The EUCHARIST.

You should turn
the WRATH of GOD
away from yourselves
by your efforts.

If you ask for
His forgiveness
with sincere hearts, 
He will PARDON you. 

I,  your MOTHER,
through the
Intercession
of  St. Michael
The Archangel,

ASK you to
AMMEND your lives. 

You are now receiving
the Last  WARNINGS. 

I LOVE you very much
and do not want 

your CONDEMNATION.

PRAY to US
with sincerity

and We will
grant your requests. 

You should
make more
SACRIFICES.

Think about
 The PASSION
 of  JESUS."

 On January 1,
(Feast of The Mother of GOD)
1965, Conchita had an Apparition
of Our Lady Who told her that on
June 18th--the 4th Anniversary--
she would be given another
Message.

On that date, more than 2,000 people

 gathered in Garabandal--

French, Germans, English, Italians, 

Americans, Polish and others were 

among those who joined the Spanish

including Journalists & TV cameras 

from Italy and Spain.

Leaving her house at 11:30 p.m. 

Conchita walked to the road leading
to the Pines to the place called

 the Cuadro.  

There she was rapt in ecstasy 

which lasted
16 minutes. 

 Saint MICHAEL  appeared
to her and delivered some words.

The only other person to see
Our Blessed Mother at
Garabandal was a 38-year old 

Spanish Jesuit Priest,
Fr. Luis Marie Andreu.

On Aug. 8th, 1961, Fr. Luis,
at The PINES,  saw
Our Blessed Mother
and was shown
the forthcoming
'Great MIRACLE'.

He was heard
to repeat 4 times:

'Miracle!'  'Miracle!'
 
The children in ecstasy
understood Our Lady
to say to him:

"You will soon be with Me."

Although he had no history
of serious illness,
he died that same night
of complete JOY !
 

His final words were:

"Oh!  What a sweet
  and lovely Mother
 we have in Heaven...

how happy I am...
 what a favor
 The Blessed Virgin
 has bestowed on me.

How fortunate we are
 to have a Mother
 like Her in Heaven! " 
 

"There is no reason to fear
 the Supernatural Life.
 The girls have given us
 an example of how
 we must act with
The Blessed Virgin.

There is no doubt
in my mind that
the things involving
the girls are true.

Why should
The Blessed Virgin
have chosen us? 

This is the happiest
day of my life!"

With these words,
Father Luis
bowed his head
and died. 

 Our Lady has said:

"that on the day
 AFTER the
'Miracle'
 his body
  would be found
 to be incorrupt."
 

Our Blessed Mother
showed special attention
and concern for all priests,
repeatedly asking that they
come to  Garabandal.

She gave the girls the ability
to recognize them even when
they came dressed as laymen, 

revealing the state of their souls. 

She taught the children
that priests were more
important even than angels
because by means of their
Ordination they have the
power to change bread
and wine into The
BODY and BLOOD
of Christ during
The Holy Sacrifice
of the Mass." 

   
On Saturday, Nov. 13th, 1965

Conchita seen her last
Apparition of
Our Lady of Mt. Carmel
at Garabandal.

Here is the literal
translation from her letter:

"One day in church
 Our Lady told me
 in a locution that I
 would see Her
 on Saturday, Nov. 13th,
 at 'The Pines';

it would be a
special Apparition
to kiss the religious objects
so that I could give them
away afterwards.

I was anxious for this day
to arrive so that I could
see again
The Blessed Virgin
and The Child Jesus
Who have implanted
in my life the seed
of  GOD's  happiness.

It was raining but it
did not matter to me.
I went up to 'The Pines'
carrying with me
the many rosaries
which people had
given me to
distribute them... 

 As I was going up
I was talking to myself,
being sorry for my
defects, desiring not
to fall into them again,
for it gave me much
worry to appear before
The Mother of GOD
without wiping them out.

When I arrived at
'The Pines',
I began to take the
rosaries out and
heard a sweet Voice,
that of  The Virgin,

which you always 
distinguish among others,
calling me by my name.
I answered Her  'what?'
 
At that very moment
I saw Her with
The Child
in Her Arms.

She was  dressed as
usual and smiling.  
I told Her,

'I have come to
 bring You the rosaries
so that You can Kiss them.'

She said to me,
 'I can see it.' 

 I had been chewing gum,
but as I was seeing Her
I did not chew it;
I placed the gum
on a tooth.

She must have noticed
for She said,

 'Conchita why don't you
get rid of the chewing gum
 and offer it up as a
sacrifice for the
 Glory of  My Son?'

I, a bit ashamed
of myself, took it out
and threw it on
the ground.

She said afterwards,

  'Do you remember
   what I told you
   on your Saint's Day--
 that you would
 suffer much on earth?'

...now I repeat it to you.

Have confidence in Us."

Then I added,
 

'How unworthy I am. 
O Mother of us,
 of so many Graces 
 received through You,
 and now You have
come to me to help me
carry the little cross I have.' 

She said:

'Conchita, I am not
 coming only for you
 but I am coming for 
all My children,

with a desire to get them
closer to Our Hearts.'

She asked for the things
I was carrying.

'Give them to Me
so that I can kiss
 all you are carrying
 with you.'

And I gave Her
everything.
I was bringing with me
also a small Crucifix
which I gave Her to kiss. 

 
She kissed it and said,

 'Put it in the Hands of
 The Child Jesus.'

And I did that and
He said nothing.

I said:
 'This cross I intend
 to take with me
 when I go to
  the convent.'

But He did not reply.

After kissing everything
She commented,
 
'My Son,
 through this Kiss,
will work wonders!
 
Distribute them
 to the others.'
 

'Of course I will do it.'

After all this She requested
that I tell Her all the petitions
for others which I had received.
 
She said,
 
     'Conchita, tell Me,
       tell Me things about
      My children.

I have all of them
  under My Cloak.'

And I commented,

 'It is too small
  and there is no room
  for all of us.' 
 

She smiled at this.

'Do you know, Conchita,
  why I did not come
  personally on June 18th
 to give you the Message
 for the world?
 

 Because it pained Me
to say it Myself,
 but I had to say it to you 
for your own good and,
if you fulfill it,
for GOD's Glory. 

  I  LOVE you very much
 and I desire your salvation;
to gather you all around
GOD The FATHER,
The SON and
The HOLY SPIRIT.

Conchita, won't you respond
to this?'
 
I said,
 'If I could be always seeing You,
 yes, but otherwise I can't
  because I am very bad...'

Our Lady added,

'You do ALL you can and
We will  HELP  you, 
as well as My daughters
Loli, Jacinta and Maricruz...'

She did not stay long with me.

She also said:

'This will be the last time
   you see Me here,
   but I will always be
   with all My children.'  

Afterwards She added,

'Conchita, why don't you
 go often
 to visit  My Son in
The Most  
 Blessed Sacrament?  
 
Why do you let yourself be
carried away by laziness
and not go to visit Him
Who is waiting for you
day and night?'

As I have written above,
it was raining hard.

Our Lady and The Child
did not get wet.  

I was not aware it was raining 

while seeing Them,
but when I stopped seeing Them
I was soaked.  I also told Her,
 

 'Oh how happy I am when I
 see You.  Why don't You
 take me with You right now?
 She answered,
 

'Remember what I told you
 on your Saint's Day.
 

 When you go before GOD
 you must show Him

 your hands  
filled with GOOD WORKS
 done by you for your brothers
 and for the Glory of GOD;
 now your hands are
empty.'   

That's all.
I spent a happy moment with
my Mother from Heaven,
my best friend,
and with The Child Jesus.

I have stopped seeing Them
but not feeling Them close.

Again They have sown
in my soul
great  PEACE,  JOY and a
desire to conquer my defects
so that I will be able to love,

with all my strength,

The Hearts of
Jesus and Mary
Who LOVE us so much.'

Conchita ends with this:

"The Blessed Virgin Mary
 told me before that Jesus  
 does not want to send the 
 PUNISHMENT
  in order to distress us
 but in order to HELP us
  and reproach us
 because we pay
 no attention to Him.

And The WARNING
will be sent
in order to
PURIFY us
for The MIRACLE
in which He will show us
His Great LOVE,

and in order that
we may fulfill
the Message." 

 With this Apparition
of Our Lady,

 the cycle of Apparitions 

in Garabandal
 closed.

It will definitely be confirmed 

on a Thursday 

at 8:30 p.m. when
The 'MIRACLE'

 takes place.

This will mark the beginning of
a new ERA in the history

 of the Salvation of Mankind.

At the age of 16, 

Joseph Lomanginof

rom Lindenhurst, New York 

was blinded

 in a freak accident which also 

severed his olfactory nerve in1947.

In 1961, aged 31, 

on the advise of doctors,

 Joey took a vacation to Europe

 and visited the Monastery
of the famed Stigmatist
St. Padre Pio at

 San Giovanni Rotondo.

Joey returned to Italy in 1963; 

on the third day of his 2nd visit

 Joey knelt for Confession. 

 Padre Pio grabbed him 

by the wrist and said,
 
 "Joey, confess yourself."  
 
    "Bless me, Father,
      for I have sinned."

...the Priest interrupted him,
 
 "Joey, you're angry, eh?"
 
"No, Father, I work hard,
   I'm tired..."
 
  "No. no, Joey,
  you're angry, eh?"

As Joey searched his soul 

for unclouded truths, 

Padre Pio
raised his arms and said,

 "I call Jesus and Mary
            for you."

At that moment, he understood
that Padre Pio knew his soul.
 

Joey has said,
 

 "I felt deeply sorry
   for every SIN
 I'de ever committed,
 and I understood
 that GOD knew this
 and Padre Pio knew this,
 and I  was being
 absolved of all." 

The Padre touched Joey's lips,
made him kiss the stigmated
hand, caressed him and said,

 "Joey, a little patience,
 a little courage and you're 
 going to be all right."

A few days later, Joey knelt with 50

 other men outside the cloister in

 the Rotondo waiting for Padre Pio

 to pass by when 

Joey threw his arms up

 plunging backward and 

noticed he could smell
THE SCENT OF ROSES!

Joey had been without the faculty
of smell since the accident--
he was amazed!

Suddenly, Padre Pio 

was next to him 

and grabbed him by 

the arm saying,

  "Joey, don't be afraid."

After 16 years, Joey was

 miraculously CURED
by the Grace of GOD
through Padre Pio.

Joey asked Padre Pio:
 
 "Father, is it true that
 The Virgin Mary
 is appearing to
     4 girls in Spain?
 The answer was simply "YES."
 
"Father, should we go
   to Garabandal?"
 The answer was again
simply  "YES."
