Beloved Friend of Our Lady,
Veronica suffered much in 1995. In the first part of the
year, she had a cyst on her spine removed. It was a painful
ordeal. Then followed a heart attack.
On Friday, June 2, Veronica had her right kidney removed which
had a cancerous tumor on it. She was in surgery for about 2
hours. A week or so later she got an infection in her other
kidney. A couple of weeks later, she was back in the hospital
with a bladder infection.
On June 19, 1995, Veronica said, "They say I'm going to
die." Our Lady had previously told Veronica that she would
not see the Chastisement. On Monday, July 31, 1995, Veronica was
rushed to the hospital with infected blood, pneumonia, 105 degree
fever, and no blood pressure.
She passed away in the hospital on Thursday, August 3, 1995, at
4:45 am. A Memorial Prayer Vigil was held on Saturday night,
August 5, at the Vatican Pavilion Site in Flushing Meadows Park.
A private funeral Mass for Veronica was held on Monday, August 7.
Veronica wants us to continue...
On May 7, 1975, Veronica said, "Our Lady and Jesus do
want all of the Mary workers to know that the day will come when
I, Veronica, will no longer be among you and you must all carry
the work forward in great haste and with great love and devotion,
that you may work together to fulfill the will of God the Father
that the Immaculate Hearts of Mary and Jesus will triumph over
the present evil."
We are now entering a new phase of disseminating the Message of
Bayside--Our Lady's greatest apparition ever. Twice recently,
Veronica asked Michael Mangan to promise to continue the mission
and spread Our Lady's Messages after she died. The events
prophesied at Bayside will probably now accelerate. Heaven and
Veronica want us to continue spreading the Messages as quickly as
possible--time is running out--until the Second Coming of Our
Lord.
Veronica of the Cross...
Our Lady said, on June 18, 1990, "My child, do not be
concerned of your disability. Remember, Theresa did not give you
the knowledge of Our name for you, as We rightly called you
'Veronica of the Cross.'"
It is just incredible how much Veronica suffered for the Pope,
the clergy, and poor sinners. She has probably has saved many
thousands of souls who would have gone to hell.
Please continue to pray for the Lueken family.
Veronica suffered the stigmata
(the wounds of Christ)...
It is not widely known that Veronica suffered the stigmata, which
is the wounds of Our Crucified Savior. It tells in Directive #67
on Monday afternoon, March 8, 1971, during the season of Lent,
Veronica saw in vision for the first time the Passion, the
sufferings of Jesus from the agony in the garden to the
crucifixion.
The vision alone was emotionally torturous and frightful enough
as each scene unfolded leading to the slaughter of the Divine
Lamb.
But even more, when it came to the crucifixion, Veronica
physically felt what she saw: the spikes and blows from the
mallet and the excruciating pain and desolation on the cross as
she joined in the indescribable sufferings of Our Savior.
Veronica literally lived her own crucifixion.
It all began when Veronica (and four others) at the request of
Our Lord were praying the sorrowful mysteries of the holy Rosary
in her home. When the Passion had ended and her ecstasy had
ceased, Veronica was left with a bitter remembrance: the stigmata
or wounds of Christ on her hands, feet and brow.
The sores had the appearance of a healing wound, black and blue
in color, and for the first few days blood from the hands and
feet would ooze out. The wounds were in the shape of a cross on
her insteps.
The stinging pain and soreness would persist for months on her
hands and a couple of years on her feet before they would
suddenly and totally disappear. It was very difficult for her to
walk and for the longest time she couldn’t wear shoes or
stockings, resorting to thongs instead.
The painful mark in the middle of her forehead felt like a deep
cut, representing the terrible wounds afflicted by the crown of
thorns. It was about the size of a penny and lasted three days.
Veronica explained that the intensity of the pain diminished with
the passage of time, adding that the wounds were hardly something
frivolous or decorative, but in fact, a cause of great pain and
anguish that the memory of it afflicts her even to this day.
Moreover, as a sacred reminder of her intimate participation in
this inestimable act of love, it has been an unbroken Lenten
custom since 1971 for Veronica to relive this identical
experience of the Passion and to bear the stigmata that follows.
It’s a copy of her first stigmata but without the brow mark,
bloodless and of far shorter duration. She suffers the throbbing
pain in her hands and feet that lasts at least 3 or 4 days.
As we discovered about Veronica’s annual Lenten ordeal, this
was something extremely stressful and taxing for her to even
think about, much less discuss. Nevertheless, Veronica summed up
neatly what she so often emphasized to us during the course of
this grueling project on the Passion: "Believe me! This is
not something to be wished or prayed for."
Background story...
Veronica Lueken, the seer of Bayside, was a wife and mother
of five children, and lived on Long Island, New York. She died
recently on August 3, 1995.
The story of her heavenly visitations goes back to the year 1968,
when St. Theresa started appearing to her and giving her poems
and sacred writings by dictation. Before this, Veronica had not
received any manifestations from Heaven.
Our Lady Herself appeared to Veronica in her home on April 7,
1970, informing her that She would appear on the grounds of the
old St. Robert Bellarmine Church in Bayside on June 18, 1970;
that vigils of prayer be held there (now temporarily held at the
Vatican Pavilion site in Flushing), and that full directions be
given to the clergy of the parish to prepare for Our Lady's first
visit there. Our Lady also requested that a Shrine and Basilica
be erected on this Her chosen Sacred Site, which is to be named
"Our Lady of the Roses, Mary Help of Mothers." It will
be the Lourdes of America. She promised to come on the eve of the
great feast days of the Church, which dates would be given to
Veronica beforehand. The Blessed Mother also instructed Veronica
to disseminate the messages given to her throughout the whole
world.
Introduction to Gangs 101...
(Getting past denial! What our kids already know!)
Street gangs provide things for the teenager that many homes in
today's morally decrepit society do not provide. They build
self-worth, provide attention and protection, give a sense of
home, and provide a sense of acceptance. Many American families
are no longer providing these basic needs, and so teenagers turn
elsewhere. Christian teens are no exception.
How can you tell if your child is in a gang? Look for changes in
behavior and attitudes, displaying a macho image, new words in
vocabulary, staying out all night, tattoos, truancy and a decline
in grades, refusing to wear certain colors or wearing the same
color patterns everyday, and unfamiliar nicknames.
What is a gang?
A gang is an organized group with a recognized leader whose
activities are either criminal or, at the very least, threatening
to the community. Gangs display their identity and unity in
obvious ways such as the use of jewelry, selected colored
clothing, jargon and signals. Members remain together in quiet
times as well as in conflict. In response to this twisted
loyalty, the reward is being accepted and recognized as a gang
member.
The main source of income for most gangs is narcotics. Members of
all ages are used by the gang in the illegal sale of narcotics
and other unlawful activities. Gangs have been known to run
protection and prostitution rings. It is a mistaken belief that
gangs only operate in less affluent neighborhoods. Gangs exist in
virtually every community.
New members are recruited wherever teenagers hang out, but mainly
at schools (with an increasing tide of recruitment at the
elementary age level.) Street gangs use graffiti to communicate,
mark territory, challenge other gangs, and to build their own
egos. Essentially, graffiti is the newspaper of the gangs.
It is important that communities try to keep the graffiti from
collecting on buildings, to show the gangs that they do not own
the town. Also, since gang involvement provides the sense of
belonging that many teens do not experience at home, Christian
teens can play an important role in reaching out to accept those
who have often been rejected the most significant people in their
lives.
The organization of a gang...
Gang organizations have hierarchies like military or
corporate structures, which adjust to changes caused by such
circumstances as death, imprisonment, fights, or drug activity.
Gangs are organized on three levels, national, regional (state or
city), and local (neighborhood).
1. National Level. The "King of the Nation," a czar of
the overall operation, typically is imprisoned and directs
operations via telephone conference calls, from Los Angeles and
Chicago. (An adult about in his late 20's.)
2. Regional (State or City) Level. The "Committee of Faction
Leaders," heads of various major groups in the gang
"nation," meet to discuss general gang business and may
have titles like prince or general. There are four types of
officers: the Minister of Defense--oversees wars with other
gangs, the Minister of Justice--disciplines gang members who get
out of line, the Minister of Papers--keeps the books, bylaws, and
records, and the Minister of the Treasury--oversees the
channeling of funds (Young men in their late teens to early
20's.)
3. Local (Neighborhood) Level. Each local chapter can consist of
50 or more members and each neighborhood chapter has its own
group of local officers. The "Rank and File," general
membership, can total thousands in a city such as Chicago--(Ages
13 to early 20's.) The "Soldiers," help fight and
conduct illicit activity--(Ages 12 to early 20's.) The
"Runners," carry messages, guns, and drugs--(Ages 6 to
12.) The "Lookouts," watch out for the police--(Ages 6
to 12.) The "Wanna-bees," the lowest level of gang
involvement, includes those who are intimidated to join a gang
and those who have not made a formal commitment.
Gangs and Satanism...
Gangs use satanic or new age symbols in their graffiti: 666,
the swastika, five- or six-pointed star, a pitch fork, and a
rabbit's head. Their leaders are also called priests; a priest
(Webster's dictionary) is one who officiates in sacred offices,
especially by offering sacrifice (satanic sacrifices--animal and
human?). Even some of the gang names show their satanic
affiliation: Satan Disciples and Dragons.
Many agents in colleges...
Our Lady - "Protect your children and your families with
sacramentals. Do not go out without your sacramentals. All are
marked for death who are not in the state of grace! All are
marked for death who are not in the state of grace!
"My children, I have often counseled you to recognize the
faces of evil about you. They come as angels of light. They will
look like beautiful children. Those in your colleges, must have
fallen and capitulated to Satan. They are now his agents.
"My children, bring your children back before it is too
late. Satan has a plan to take them in. They will be his agents
in sin. They will be sent throughout the country to kill. And
they will kill within the homes. It will be mother against
father, daughter against mother, father against son. It is
because of sin. Sin is insanity.
"My child, it is not a pleasant message I bring you. But I
have warned and counseled. Much tears have been shed because of
the approach of this time. You must now study the Book of life
and love, the Apocalypse. The time is here." (8-13-77)
To promote fear by mass murder...
Veronica - A very heavy cross will be placed upon the United
States. There is rising an army, a satanic army. The ages of the
young are from twenty to thirties. They are now massing in the
thousands. Revolution and murder are their plan. The plan is to
promote fear by mass murder.
Our Lady asks that you all pray constantly that this sorrow will
not enter upon your personal lives and your family. I asked Our
Lady why, and Our Lady said it is in the plan of the Eternal
Father that man - many shall return from their suffering. Man,
Our Lady said, does not learn from his past. He continues making
the same mistakes. (12-7-77)
The Illuminati...
Our Lady - "There is a group in the United States and
the world, a group that started many years ago, calling itself
the Illuminati, coming from the word 'light bearer'. Naturally,
My children, this light that they bear stands for Lucifer, and as
such they have gone through the world secretly known as
Luciferians. They have brought into your country, the United
States, and your neighbor Canada, a group of witchcraft
practices. Well have they laid their plan to destroy your
children with drugs, using your school systems, your media's of
communication, your newspapers, your televisions, your radios:
every means of communication has been infiltrated by the member
and sub-members of the Illuminati, a conglomeration of
individuals and powers and principalities throughout the world,
and banking systems. As you well know, My children, money has
always been the root of all evil, and many have sold their souls
to get to the head." (11-25-95)
