John, here are a couple of links. You may have to enter manually. I'm not sure the links will work automatically.

This site is about a lady in Conyers, GA who has been having visions since the late 80's. I've been there. Everyone has a very good peace and spirit about them. These people love Jesus Christ with all their heart. Someone earlier shared some concerns with the Catholic Church and their history. I understand their comments, yet I have met Catholics who love the Lord and read their Bible everyday, as well as attend Mass everyday. There are many people from diverse backgrounds who seek to know and love the Lord. I am not to judge from where they come from, but to point them towards Christ - the only way.

This site is about a movement of Priest devoted to Mary. It was started by a Priest named Father Stefano Gobbi. His writings started in 1972. They describe beforehand many events spiritually, politically, as well as in nature, that have taken place over the past 25 years. Primarily though it's about being in prayer for the church, and preparing ourselves spiritually for the "days ahead".

I am somewhat beginning to understand the devotion to Mary by many Catholics, and I try to be respectful of what I don't understand. I do not wish to have a discussion about Mary on this thread. I don't believe that is what the original author intended. If needed we can start another thread for that.

As I mentioned before, I'm a Protestant. Yet these writings are very powerful and I personally take them very seriously. Like all matters, test the spirit of what you read, hear, and see. I don't offer this material to offend anyone or make them angry, but to add another perspective to this thread and insight to the "days in which we live".

Again, if the majority believes this is not suitable for this thread, I understand, and will refrain from discussing this type of material here.

Scott

John, have I seen you on the Oil Drilling and Services Thread?
