Praying Lumena. Unbelievable that there was an earthquake on top of everything else. Thank goodness both you and your daughter made it through the storm.
The crisis in New Zealand buried your question, Prayslie! The Garabandal timetable (if it is to occur next year), might preclude your suggestion unless the India trip is very early in the year. The series of events is as follows: The 3rd session of the 4-yr. Synod is completed in Rome at the end of October, 2023. The Pope visits Moscow; Russian aggression expands deeper into Europe; the Warning then occurs. On April 3rd Conchita announces the Miracle which then occurs on Thursday, April 11th.
A fair question, Byron. I'm not sure that anyone can claim having an answer to that question for any of the first 14 days of the month of April (except Conchita). I do agree that the issue of the Eucharistic martyr is a sticking point which no one has resolved. But I would say that if the Ukraine war spills over into countries beyond Ukraine itself, and if the Warning occurs during the period of say Dec-February, then the answer to that question would be the least of my worries. I would hate to see more war, but if the Warning is true I must rejoice in seeing maybe many millions turning back to God. This is my heartfelt desire. If the fact that Conchita relayed a falsehood concerning said saint is proven true, but the other more decisive predictions come true, then that issue will prove mute. But it is worth mentioning. We have other sticking points, too. The question surrounding Joey Lamangino's eyes has been seen as another stumbling block; many reject Garabandal for that reason.
Of course...but the incidents at Sodom and Gomorrah and the dual destructions of Jerusalem and her Temples indicate that we should not completely discount such readings either.
I wonder if there is a square inch on this earth where the sins of our fathers have not been committed on the land we occupy? Syria was also badly hit by that same quake and they have suffered so much with the war and sanctions preventing aid from getting in. The problem with pointing out this sort of thing is that it can be used against anyone including the Church for sins it has allegedly committed in various nations as justification for catastrophes or other acts of violence.
Very true, and who among us isn't guilty of something? However, it's hard to ignore or forget something so monstrous as the Armenian genocide. It is also compounded by Turkey's continual denial. If this thread is anything to go by, the whole world is suffering from God's Wrath and it looks only to be getting worse. He takes us all in His own time and when or how He dies it does not necessarily reflect a Judgement upon whom He takes, but circumstances might still be sending us a message.
"The wheel of God grinds slowly but it grinds exceedingly small"---old adage. It may seem that God is doing nothing but His wheel keeps grinding and as the psalmist says about the evil man--"I looked and lo--he was gone." I see Ms Sturgeon has resigned. First Ms Ardern and now Ms Sturgeon. Hmmm. I can only hope and pray Mr Biden will be next.
Is this Polish Bishop a possible candidate? St. Stanislaus the Martyr; Feast day: April 11 On April 11, the Catholic Church honors the memory of the 11th-century bishop and martyr St. Stanislaus of Krakow, who died for the faith at the hands of King Boleslaus II. Canonized in 1253, St. Stanislaus is a beloved patron of Poland and one of the earliest native Polish bishops. In his own country he is commemorated on May 8. (The exact date of his death is uncertain. According to different sources, it was either April 11 or May 8, 1079.) St. John Paul II – who was Kraków’s archbishop in the “See of St. Stanislaus” before becoming pope – paid tribute to him often during his pontificate. In a 2003 letter to the Polish Church, he recalled how St. Stanislaus “proclaimed faith in God to our ancestors and started in them...the saving power of the Passion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ.” “He taught the moral order in the family based on sacramental marriage. He taught the moral order within the State, reminding even the king that in his actions he should keep in mind the unchanging Law of God.” Through St. Stanislaus, God taught the Polish pope’s homeland to respect “the Law of God and the just rights of every person.” Born near Kraków in July of 1030, Stanislaus Szczepanowski was the son of Belislaus and Bogna. His parents, members of the nobility, showed great zeal and charity in their practice of the Catholic faith. Their son studied for a time in his own country, and went on to learn theology and canon law in Paris. The death of his parents left him with a large inheritance, which he gave away to the poor. After his ordination to the priesthood, Stanislaus served the Church in Kraków in different pastoral and administrative posts. Following the death of the diocese’s leader, Bishop Lambert Zula, Stanislaus was chosen as his successor in 1071. He did not want the position, but obeyed Pope Alexander II’s direct order to accept it. Having done so, he proved to be a bold preacher of the Gospel. This boldness brought him into conflict with Poland’s ruler, King Boleslaus II, who was becoming notorious for his violent and depraved lifestyle. After a series of disputes over his scandalous behavior and other matters, Stanislaus found no success in his efforts to reform the king. He excommunicated the sovereign – who responded with furious anger, sending henchmen to kill the bishop while he was offering Mass in the Chapel of St. Michael, located in a suburb of Kraków. But the soldiers all came out, saying they had been frightened by a light from heaven. Boleslaus then took matters into his own hands, ambushing Stanislaus and striking him down with a sword at the altar. St. Stanislaus was soon acclaimed as a martyr, while Boleslaus II was deposed and fled to Hungary. In later years the fallen monarch is said to have lived in a monastery, repenting of the murder. — Catholic News Agency https://catholicnewsherald.com/fait...0-st-stanislaus-the-martyr-feast-day-april-11 Edited: king to bishop ~
This is dismissed due to the fact that St. Stanislaus was not young at the time of his martyrdom (49 yrs. old). Conchita claimed it was a young martyr. St. Stanislaus, pray for us!
However, it’s very interesting that St Stanislaus defended marriage and the family. An issue that is so important today.
I thought that as well. And while I understand that 49 yrs of age is not really "young", it's kind of considered "young" in our day. (shrugs)
When I first heard about that prophecy from Garabandal this is the guy who jumped to mind, but it is difficult to think of him as 'young'. Supposedly JPII was going to use Stanislaus as his regnal name but didn't because it might seem too foreign to a lot of people. Also, he was a bishop, not a king. The only king that's been canonized, to my knowledge, is St. Louis.
Quite a few people saying that a lot of the Scots objected very strongly to her pro-trans stance. If this was a factor, it would seem incredible that such a miniscule minority could wield such influence.
How wonderful and hopeful if true. Sometimes I wonder if the hidden power brokers " pull the plug" on leaders who are no longer useful. Wish Mr Trudeau would be next.
