Our Lady: "My children, I have come to prepare you. All who hear My voice must make ready, for there will be great chastisements upon your country."

Veronica: Our Lady is dressed in a deep red gown. Her mantle is draped close over Her head. The mantle is trimmed in deep purple. She is being joined by a man who is dressed in a deep brown cape. He looks like a monk.

ST. THOMAS AQUINAS

St. Thomas: "I have not come to add to the words of the Queen of Heaven. I, Thomas, say unto you that you will listen to the words of your God in Heaven. The golden rule of the prophets of old must be followed. Satan has entered into the holy House of God. You will open your eyes to the truth now and stop him.

"I see that the high priests of the House of God have become soft in their ways. They cater to their bodies and do not wish to sacrifice and make penance. There will be no easy road to the Kingdom. They will get down on their knees, and they will starve their worldly bodies until they rid themselves of the demons within them.

"Unless you listen now to my words of caution, you will fall into the trap that is being set for you. The enemy is within the House of God. He will seek to remove your Vicar from among you, and when he does he will place a man of dark secrets upon the Seat of Peter! (He means the third demon loosed in 1972 for special mission—to enter the Mystical Body of Christ.)

"I, Thomas, send my word to you that you will listen to the Fathers of the House now, or you will answer to your God.

"You will all make penance and restitution to your God by turning from the world and getting down on your knees and making sacrifice for your offenses against your God in the holy House of God—now! There is no time to feed your worldly lusts and passions. You must turn back now!

CONSPIRACY OF EVIL

"The conspiracy of evil within the holy House of God has assumed great proportion. It will not be long, without your aid, that your Vicar will be removed from among you.

"The forces of evil are accelerating in the world. There is no time to sit back and let the others take the lead. You must now save your Vicar. How will you do this? You will make sacrifices and prayers of atonement. Your sacrifices and your prayers will turn the evil that has entered into the holy men of the House of God away from them.

"Do not expect man to save himself. It is too late for man to use men of science. He must now return to the methods given by his God, of prayers and atonement.

"The judgment of your God is not akin to the judgment of man. The Eternal Father will only judge by the heart. Your rank, your accumulation of worldly goods does not set you up before another. Many have sold their souls within the holy House of God. Better that you strip yourself and remove all worldly interests now while you have the time to make amends to your God, for many mitres will fall into hell."

Veronica: Our Lady has now come down to the right side of the flagpole. She is wiping Her eyes. She is now being joined by beautiful little figures; they are angels. They are dressed in all pastel colors—beautiful! They have crowns of roses on their heads. Some are yellow, some are pink, some are white. They are standing about Our Lady now, and She has reached out and placed Her hands gently upon their heads.

Our Lady now is extending Her hand, and in Her hand is a large Rosary. The beads are very large. They are made of a white, glistening material, like pearl. The crucifix is very large and golden. Now Our Lady is extending the crucifix very high, and She is blessing everyone now with the crucifix.

Now Our Lady has gone over to the left side of the flagpole. She is raising Her hand again, and She is blessing everyone with the Rosary and the large crucifix.

Saint Thomas has stepped back, and he is holding in his hand a large Bible. He is pointing to the Bible, and he says:

BIBLE NOT TO BE DISTORTED

St. Thomas: "Receive ye the word of truth, and do not distort it in the Book."

Veronica: . . . Jesus says He wants to give the honor to His Mother . . . [words not clear. He evidently requested that a recording of the Ave Maria be played to honor His Mother.]

Oh, Jesus is standing there. He is dressed in a white gown. He has a beautiful red velvet cape on Him, and He is smiling. His hair is parted in the center and it's quite long. He's smiling. He is blessing the flag, like this, with His hand in the sign of the Trinity. And now there are angels all about Him and Our Lady, and Our Lady is coming forward again.

Oh, She's over here. Oh, She's beautiful! Oh, She has on the most beautiful gown. It's all red, with a white stole. [Veronica's words are now lost in the strains of the Ave Maria being played at Jesus' request.]

. . . by all who are holding up their sacramentals—cards, medals, any that will receive this special blessing that will carry you with greater armor of protection in the days that lie ahead. You will extend all Rosaries, cards, medals, any articles of godly nature, to be blessed by Jesus.

Now Jesus, with—Our Lady is standing next to Him; She's following. She's—well, She is not walking, She is floating behind Him. And Jesus also has seemed to, floated over to our right side—that's His left side, here.

Now He is raising His hand high above His head, and He is making a blessing in the sign of the Trinity, like this. Now Jesus is coming over to the center of the flagpole, and He is looking out over the crowd of people. And He is raising His hand and blessing everyone in the sign of the Trinity.

And now Our Lady is being joined by a group of nuns, the ones with those funny hats that go out like this. Like—they are all alike, like wings. And also, over on this side is Theresa. And she always has her sisters with her. There are three. And then they are going over there.

Oh, Jesus said to remove those tights from their convents. Oh! Oh!

Oh, and Jesus now—He's coming forward, and He is blessing the banner like this in the sign of the Trinity: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

Oh, Jesus said I'm to repeat His words.

FAITHFUL AND TRUE

Jesus: "I bless you, My children, and I admire your great show of heart. We are pleased with the speed in which you have brought forth the honor to Our Vicar. (The banner 'Faithful and True' was completed and unveiled.) Therefore, now you will carry for him the banner called 'Faithful and True.' In this way you will hold back the darkness that will soon engulf Our Holy City of Rome."

Veronica: And now Jesus has raised His hand high above His head, and He is making the sign of the cross now, straight forward. And He is now looking over in this direction, and He is making the sign of the cross with His hand.

Now Jesus is joining Our Lady and the group of nuns standing over here on the left side of the flagpole, and they are all looking down. And Jesus is now raising His hand again: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

Saint Thomas—Oh! Oh, Saint Thomas has come forward. He has stepped now by Jesus. He is a shorter man than Jesus. He is quite heavy. And he's got a rope around his waist, and he has a Rosary now hanging very far down his waist. And his Rosary is a very dark brown color. Now he said:

St. Thomas: "You will go forth as disciples of truth. It will be the good souls who will hold back the darkness in the days ahead. You will have behind you all the mysteries and the help of your God in these dark days. Many manifestations that cannot be understood by man will be given as your armor. Many manifestations will be given in secret. Those are just for workers and cannot be shared publicly. You will understand in due time the plan of the Father."

Veronica: Now Jesus has stepped forward, and He says:

Jesus: "I bless you all, My children. Continue with your prayers of atonement, much needed for the high priests of My House."

Veronica: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.

DIFFICULT ROAD AHEAD FOR RELIGIOUS

Our Lady wants you to know that there will be difficult days ahead for all religious. Therefore, you must stand your ground and do not leave, because to leave is also falling in with the plan of satan. You must hold the truth in your heart and have great hope, because this will all be in the Book of life that must come to pass. Therefore, the trials you must take with obedience and also faith.

And then I think that what Our Lady means for you to know is that the road ahead will not be easy. In fact, you will find that it will take fortitude and great courage to stand in your own convictions.

We don't want, Our Lady said, great disobedience or fighting within the ranks or anything like that, but prayer will turn the tide. When you find within your order that the going is rough and you are being forced into a pattern which doesn't meet with what you feel in your heart is right or in the plan of God, you will pray for guidance of the Holy Spirit and you will be led out of this trap which is being set for all religious. And that goes from the highest rank of cardinal down.

Rose Notes from Veronica:

Testimonials continue to come in for the records of holy Church.

Please remember the need for stamps in these days of spiraling costs.

In the prayer force, please take a cardinal or bishop, in your charity. Make him your "special baby;" nourish him with prayers.

Veronica would be most grateful if all will submit, for the records of holy Church, all testimonies of cures, conversions, and manifestations.

Please remember the medal fund. We would like to send the medals throughout the world in abundance.
