Constant Procession

The “Queen of Heaven" apperated three times to Adele Brice in Green Bay, Wisconsin in October, 1859. During the early times at the mission, they would receive amazing and continuous answers to prayers (large and small) in support of the work this seer was tasked to do. The "least" being an answer to urgent and intense prayers of the Rosary to the Madonna to protect the orphans as a raging fire that had encircled the beleagured orphanage and grounds were answered and the entire compound was spared. This is the first approved apparition of the Virgin Mary that happened within the USA. There are links, photos and more about this on my website. Pray for this war in the Middle East to end.

The realities of getting around an apparition site in a different country is explored in this week’s podcast. I visited the “Our Lady of Guadalupe” apparition site in Mexico City a number of years ago now. Recalling my experience in today’s podcast, specifically getting there and also walking up “Tepeyac Hill” becomes more vivid as the years go by. The actual experience is a paradox of inspiration, research, detailed planning, speculation, unexpected challenges, insecurity, confidence, blind faith and timing melded together, in an amalgamation of reward and relief, tension and finally peace. My desire to see and walk the grounds where the Virgin Mary appeared to St Juan Diego over 500 years ago just came to my attention out of the blue (as have all my other tours to various apparition sites in the world.)  And sharing those travels with my lovely wife who has now transitioned to Heaven makes all those investments of time during life more meaningful with each passing day… My take away for this one is the rewar

Part 18- This is the epilogue and final installment from a weekly reading of my first book “The Constant Procession.”  It includes reflections I gleaned during the writing of the book and the feelings I experienced while visiting apparition sites where the Madonna has appeared. At her encouragement during these apparitions, people have experienced feelings of Faith and Hope and Comfort and Encouragement that is so lacking in the world today.  Also while working on publishing these weekly podcast over the three months it entailed, I found that the global challenges of the day found solutions from the Holy Mother’s apparition guidance to seers in times past. And it is my hope that you have found inspiration in the words she shared across the vastness of time and space while visiting humanity. Pray for this war in the Middle East to end.

Part 17- This is the seventeenth and final installment of my first book “The Constant Procession.” Listen from the beginning- Episode 409- Part 1 NOTE: These final chapters were written before the current war between the Ukraine and Russia broke out. The time period I wrote about began in 1922 when the Ukraine was totally controlled by the USSR. In 1991, the USSR broke into the numerous independent countries that included the Ukraine. Russia became the most powerful country in the region and this distinction continues today.   Chapter 28 continues to describe this earlier time period when Ukrainian churches were under siege during the times of the USSR’s religious suppression. However, it was Ukrainian Immigrants to North America who kept them going during this suppression. The final chapter is about apparition sites where the Virgin Mary has appeared. They offer hope for a timeless mode of being for those in the constant procession... There are links, photos and more about this on my website. Pra

Part 16- This is the sixteenth installment of a free reading of my 1st book entitled “The Constant Procession.” You'll hear it for free from cover to cover in 15-minute podcast segments! Medjugorje, does not come to mind as a vacation spot. But it has inspired visiting pilgrims to spread the Madonna's words. For young people, who have not lived more than thirty years, this area of the world is typically not on their radar. For those who have lived a bit longer, there remains a dark mental imprint. A remembrance that recalls brutality inflicted on people within this region as they experienced civil war in the 1990’s. Fighting caused by the breaking up of Yugoslavia. For me, the news reporting during that period of the civil war did little to help explain the confusing jumble of puzzling information that ominously included atrocities, genocide and war crimes. Yet this area is where the Madonna appeared. She offered to the world a surprising counterpoint to humanities deeds. It’s amazing to me that even during t

The Virgin Mary appears at Medjugorje in Yugoslavia (now Bosnia and Herzegovina) in June 1981.

By the end of WWI, among those who died on the battlefields were the best and brightest of that generation. This suddenly created a vacuum of natural leaders across the world.  Nihilism followed and brought on the attitude that “anything goes.”  The “Roaring Twenties” became the “Great Depression” that became WWII. But then, a Marian apparition from long ago brought hope through a phenomenon known as "Our Lady of the Great Return" in France during that horrific war.  It brought people hope and became an 'endless procession' as people marched behind a very special statue of the Virgin Mary across France.  There are links, photos and more about this on my website.
