4Blessed Imelda Lambertini
- Imelda was born in 1322 in Bologna, the only
child of a noble family. Her parents were devout
Christians and known for their charity and
generosity to the underprivileged of Bologna. As
a very young girl, Imelda had a burning desire to
receive Christ in the Most Holy Eucharist. On her
fifth birthday, she requested this privilege.
However, Church custom at the time was that a
person did not receive their First Holy Communion
until age 14. Imelda was sorely disappointed but
accepted the Church's position and her parents'
decision.As time went by, her desire for the
Blessed Sacrament grew. She thought that if she
joined the convent, she would get to receive
communion sooner. She joined a cloistered
Dominican community at age nine. (It was not
unusual at the time for a girl her age to enter
the convent.) However, she was still denied the
opportunity to receive Holy Communion.The
Miracle Year 1333 - When she was eleven, on the Feast of the
Ascension, she knew in her heart that it would be
the day of her First Holy Communion, but did not
speak of this inspiration to anyone. At Holy
Mass, she waited for a signal from her superior
or from the priest-celebrant, but no one
indicated their approval to her. After Mass,
Imelda was crushed at not having received
communion as she thought and remained in the
chapel weeping long after the other nuns left.
Her heart so desired to receive the Eucharist
that she could not take it any more.Miraculously
, a consecrated Host, which was reserved in the
tabernacle, left the tabernacle and hovered over
her head. She was in a state of ecstasy. After a
long time, her superior noticed she was not going
about her duties around the monastery and went
looking for her. She discovered Imelda just where
she left her, in the chapel but she was in a
state of rapture as the miraculous Host continued
to be elevated above her head. The superior ran
to get the priest, who promptly came. He got a
paten and held it under the Host. The Host
dropped onto the paten, and the priest gave
Imelda her First Holy Communion. Imelda knelt in
her spot in the chapel to pray in thanksgiving,
and her Dominican sisters joined her for a time.
Eventually, they left her alone to contemplate
this great gift.Later that day, her superior
again became concerned and looked for her only to
discover that after several hours, little Imelda
was still in the chapel. The superior wanted to
make sure she got some rest and approached with
the intention of asking her to retire. However,
Imelda had died, kneeling serenely and in prayer.
It is said she died for joy and love of the Holy
Eucharist. Miracles were immediately attributed
to her intercession, especially the restoration
of sight to one man from her town who had been
blind.Imelda was beatified by the Roman
Catholic Church in 1826. Her Feast day is on May
13th.
51792 Pope Pius IX was Born on May 13th
- I believe that this Popes prophecy is referring
to May 13th 2010 and beyond. - 'The Prophets and our Times' by Rev R. Gerald
Cullen published by Tan Books - - " We expect that the Immaculate Virgin and the
Mother of God, through her most powerful
intercession, will bring it about that our holy
mother, the Catholic Church, after the removal of
all obstacles and overcoming of all errors, will
gain in influence from day to day among nations
and all places, prosper and rule from ocean to
ocean, from the great stream to the ends of the
earth that she will enjoy peace and
liberty........that all erring souls will return
to the path of truth and justice after the
darkness of their minds has been dispelled, and
that there wil be one fold and one shepherd.""
Since the whole world is against God and his
Church, it is evident that he has reserved the
victory over His enemies over to Himself. This
will be more obvious when it is considered that
the root of our present evils is to be found in
the fact that those with talents and vigor crave
earthly pleasures, and not only desert God, but
repudiate Him altogether thus it appears they
cannot be brought back to God in any other way
except through an act that cannot be ascribed to
any secondary agency, and thus all will be forced
to look to the supernatural, and cry out 'From
the Lord is this come to pass and it is wonderful
in our eyes!'.... There will come a Great Wonder,
which will fill the world with astonishment. This
wonder will be preceded by triumph of
revolution.The Church will suffer exceedingly.
Her servants and chieftain will be mocked,
scourged and martyred."
6Fátima
- Beginning on May 13, 1917, the Blessed Virgin
Mary, the Mother of God, appeared six times on
consecutive months of the 13th day of every month
to Jacinta (age 7), Francisco (age 9) and Lucia
(age 10) in Fatima, Portugal. The Blessed Virgin
told the children to pray the Rosary every day
she showed them a vision of Hell and she made
prophecies about World War II and the expansion
of Communism (the errors of Russia), among
other things. - The message and miracle of Our Lady of Fatima in
1917 is one of the greatest events in the history
of the Catholic Church. Since the miracle at
Fatima, which occurred on Oct. 13, 1917, was
predicted to take place in advance, and was
fulfilled in the presence of almost 100,000
people. Elsewhere on the continent the great
World War 1 raged, that would cost Europe an
entire generation, over 37 million lives. The
Bolsheviks seized power in Russia during the
October Revolution phase of the Russian
Revolution of 1917, and founded the communist
state of the Soviet Union.
- "What if nothing wonderful happens on the 13th?
Aren't you afraid people will laugh at you then?"
asked the parish priest, as he looked closely at
10-year-old Lucia. - "Oh no, Father!" replied Lucia. "I know
something wonderful is going to happen on the
13th. The Lady told us so." Nine-year-old
Francisco and 7-year-old Jacinta were equally
certain.

1920. Elevated to the College of Cardinals,
December 16, 1929. Secretary of State of Vatican

Outspoken in his condemnation of Communism
8Garabandal Prophecies 1961-1965
- The Warning Three great supernatural events
were prophesied at Garabandal. The first is a
worldwide Warning from God to be seen and then
felt interiorly by everyone on earth. At that
moment, we will see the wrong we've done and the
good we failed to do. The Warning will be sent to
correct the conscience of the world and prepare
it for the great Miracle. - The Miracle The Miracle will take place at
the grove of pine trees on a bluff overlooking
the village of Garabandal. It will occur on a
Thursday evening at 830 on or between the eighth
and the sixteenth of March, April or May.
(Visionary Conchita Gonzalez-Keena knows the date
and will announce it eight days in advance.) It
will be on the Feastday of a martyr of the
Eucharist AND coincide with an event in the
Church. All those either in the village or
surrounding mountains will see it. The sick who
are present will be cured, sinners converted and
the incredulous will believe. As a result of the
Miracle, Russia will be converted. - The "Sign" After the Miracle, a permanent
visible supernatural sign will remain at the
pines in Garabandal until the end of time. - The Chastisement If the world still does not
change after the Miracle, then God will send the
Chastisement. - Source http//www.garabandal.com/message.htm
9Pope John Paul II May 13th 1981
- Saint Anselm, Bishop of Sunium (13th century)
- "You will be ruined, city of seven hills (Rome),
when the letter K will be praised in your walls
(Karol Woytilla, Pope John Paul II). Then, your
fall will be near. (...) And you, man of big
beard, you will lose it and you will lose your
value in the whole world, for having presided the
death of the Pontiff called John Obi ". (John
Paul is the only Pope that adopted two names. Bis
is two in Latin). - This prophecy, could be about the bearded Turkish
gunman Mehmet Ali Agca, attempted almost
succeeded in assassinating Pope John Paul II on
May 13, 1981), that could of changed the course
of history, except for the miraculous
intervention by Our Lady which saved him. - "After the assassination attempt of 13 May, 1981,
it appeared evident to His Holiness that it was a
"motherly hand which guided the bullet's path,"
enabling the "dying Pope" to halt "at the
threshold of death."

Christianity is the truest of all religions,
since the Permanent Signs are located only at
site of Catholic apparitions of Jesus and/or
Mary.The Day of Healing also proves that God is
all-powerful, since so many persons are healed
from every kind of illness, injury, and defect. - Zechariah 1210 And I will pour out a spirit
of compassion and supplication on the house of
David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that
they will look on the on whom they have pierced,
and they will mourn for him, as one mourns for an
only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one
weeps over a first born. - Zechariah 131 on that day a fountain shall
be opened for the house of David and the
inhabitants of Jerusalem, to cleanse them from
sin and impurity

waiting stand-down period.

13Why are we locked into 2010?
- Firstly Joey Lomangino Born 27th June 1931
will be 79 years old, almost 80 when the Great
Miracle happens. -
- Dear Joey Today at the pines in a locution the
Blessed Virgin told me to tell you will receive
new eyes on the day of the Great Miracle - Joey Lomangino, who has dedicated his life to
spreading the Message of Garabandal, is totally
an incurably blind. But, through the above quote
from a letter from the Garabandal visionary
Conchita Gonzalez, Joey has the assurance that he
will one day see. Conchita also quoted the Virgin
as saying The first thing he (Joey) shall see
will be the miracle which my Son will perform
through my intercession, and from that time on he
will see permanently. - Source http//www.garabandal.us/joey_story.html
- Secondly, The older adult visionaries of
Garabandal and Medjugorje have to make an
announcement about the Secrets, just days before
they occur. - See http//youtube.com/watch?v5-FvMvsnttc
- Thirdly, The Miracle has to coincide with a Great
Event of the Church which has never happened
within the lifetime of the visionaries They were
born in the 1950s . This Great Event is making
a Pope into a Saint i.e. John Paul II and also
on the Feast day of a young Eucharistic Martyr. - Lastly it has to align itself perfectly with past
prophecies and events as mentioned earlier within
the presentation. - Source BBC Pope John Paul II Beatification

14Events leading up to The Miracle
- Conchita , Born in 1949 a Garabandal visionary
was quoted as saying this- - There would only be three popes after Pope John
XXIII? - Conchita said three popes, and then the End of
Times...We are now in the End of Times! - Conchita was with her mother Aniceta and Mrs.
Ortiz on the way to the Church. The following
conversation arose --...The Pope has died," her
mother said. Conchita Answered "Ah, yes the Pope
died. Then there are THREE Popes left." Up to
this point, so far so good. Nevertheless, once
they returned home, Aniceta felt uneasy and
wanted to more deeply know the thoughts of her
daughter who seemed to act with reservation in
the presence of Mrs. Ortiz. At home, alone,
fearing a possible error of her daughter, her
mother asked her "How do you know that there are
only THREE Popes left?" Conchita answered "By
the Holy Virgin. In fact she told me that FOUR
Popes would still come but that She did not count
one of them." Aniceta Said "But why not then,
count ONE?" Conchita answered "She did not say
why, She only said to me that she did not count
ONE. Nevertheless she told me that he would rule
the Church by just a very short time." Answering
the question, Aniceta asked "Perhaps for that
reason she does not count him?" Conchita said "I
do not know why. Her mother asked "And what
comes later?" Conchita said "She did not say"
In retrospect we know the other Pope to be Pope
Paul I who only lasted 33 days in his
pontificate. Translated from http//personales.mun
divia.es/rjm/lospapas.htm and http//www.heiliggei
st-seminar.de/Garabandal6.htm - Pope Benedict XVI will see the Miracle from
wherever he happens to be.
The Miracle is three-fold (a.) There will be
very many miraculous healings all over the
earth. Miraculous Permanent Signs will be left in
the places where the Virgin Mary has appeared,
including Medjugorje, Garabandal, and several
other places. (c.) A vast number of unbelievers
will be converted to Catholicism.
