Exciting update: miracle doves strike again!

Tuesday, Dec. 23, 2003, Our Lady of the Roses Shrine   On the Vigil in honor of Christmas, hundreds and hundreds of beautiful white doves graced the skies above Our Lady’s Shrine as about a hundred pilgrims offered their Rosaries on a cold winter’s night. Their spectacular presence brought gasps and cries from the pilgrims whose hearts were lifted up in joy and wonder as the waves of doves glided above them.

With just two days before Christmas and at a time when most people are shopping, partying, or just relaxing in a warm home before the Christmas tree, the love and the faith of the devotees was certainly rewarded by Our Lady and Our Lord.

Moreover, the Eternal Father was reminding all of us once again: make no mistake, Jesus and Mary are present on these sacred grounds!

 

 

The Virgin Mary appears in America

This beautiful story of grace, peace and redemption opened publicly on June 18, 1970 when the Mother of God visited Veronica Lueken on the grounds of the old St. Robert Bellarmine Church in Bayside, New York and later at the Vatican Pavilion site (blessed by Pope Paul VI) in Flushing Meadows Park, New York. Beginning in 1968, St. Theresa the Little Flower prepared Veronica for these Heavenly apparitions.

For 25 years, the Virgin Mary and Her Divine Son would appear to this mother of five children during Rosary Vigils on these sacred grounds until her passing in 1995. Our Lady asked that this Shrine be called “Our Lady of the Roses, Mary Help of Mothers” and that a Sunday Holy Hour offered for the Pope and priests be held.

Over 300 comprehensive messages packed with wisdom and guidance for these latter days were transmitted through this seer named by Heaven, Veronica of the Cross.

Our Lady of the Roses Shrine is under the stewardship of the lay Order of St. Michael (est. 1977), a vibrant community of dedicated, celibate men who have been appointed by Heaven to lead this global mission. Our Lady has prophesied that this lay Order will bring forth the full-fledged religious Order of St. Michael, an order founded on tradition, which will also include a cloistered convent.

Our Lady has also stated that curative waters will erupt and a magnificent basilica will be erected at the original site of St. Robert’s.

The Vigils and Holy Hours continue to this day at the Vatican Pavilion inspired by Our Lord’s promise: “We have made Our home upon these grounds.” Cures and conversions abound and for countless pilgrims, faith and hope have been restored. We invite you to join us.
