December 29, 1973
Eve of the Feast of the Holy Family
Veronica announced to the pilgrims attending the
vigil that night that the Warning from the Father planned to be set upon
the world on December 28, 1973, had been delayed. Man had been granted an
extension of time due to the number of victim souls, and the major instrument
for the reprieve was the sending of Vers Demain (a lay group in Canada
that promoted the Bayside Message from 1973 to 1977) by Our Lady to help
reach as many souls as possible.
Veronica--Our Lady is coming down by the right
side of the flagpole. Oh, She's very beautiful. Oh, the light is so bright!
Our Lady looks almost like a little girl. She's dressed in a white robe,
but it has gold-entwined, and embroidered type of ornamental gold trim about
Her robe. And now Our Lady is smiling,and She's extending Her Rosary and
She's saying:
Our Lady--"You spoke well, My child...of
My children from the House of St. Michael. You see, we do have a plan for
saving your country. This surprises you, My child, much. As I have told
you in the past, the Father has a plan for everything. You will not concern
yourself of the future but live each day now to the fullest, consecrating
yourself and your family to the Sacred Heart of My Son.
"Yes, your country and the world must go through
great trial. However, I do not wish to fill you with fear, but to prepare
you for what is to come.
(Pause)
THE SECOND COMING
"All who remain of well spirit will have no
fear but will go through these days of trial with great hope and rejoice
in the Second Coming of My Son.
"I must caution you once more, My child, to
be most careful of who enters upon your home. The enemies of My Son will
try to stop you. You must not travel without your cross.
"I, My child, am doing My utmost to lessen
the punishment upon your country and the world.
(pause)
"However, My children, you must understand
that I cannot do this alone, but you must follow My direction. I have given
you the plan for your salvation. You will wear your sacramentals and remain
close to My Son in the tabernacles of the world.
"The road before you and all who are destined
for the Kingdom will be one of trial. Prepare yourself to be scorned, to
be mocked, and to be cast aside by your own. No, My child, I cannot take
this cross from the world. The world must go through a heavy Chastisement.
The time can only be counted with the balancing of the scale. When the weight
of iniquity has reached its heaviest, you will know that the wrath of the
Father will fall heavy upon mankind.
"My child, there is a simple tale of love:
that which you cherish you keep near you. Why have you all discarded the
objects of your God? Why have you cast aside the blessed images?"
Veronica--Our Lady means the statues and the pictures.
Our Lady is much displeased by many of the pictures of Her Son. They are,
Our Lady says, a mockery to His Blessed Heart.
THE WARNING DELAYED
Our Lady--"The Warning which is yet to
come upon your city and the world has been delayed. However, the murders
in your city have not ceased. The murders of the unborn must cease now or
your city will fall. All who have even a small measure of participation
in the slaughter of the holy innocents shall be burned in the abyss.
"Your country has lost the knowledge of the
Father. Sin within your country is truly an abominable way of life. Your
children are walking the road to perdition. Woe to those who have the responsibility
of nourishing the souls and set them onto the road to perdition. Better
that they had died in their mother's womb!
"You will keep, My child, My children, a constant
vigilance of prayer. The danger has not passed by you as yet.
"Prayer, atonement and sacrifice--is this
too much to ask of you? Were you to view your days of the future, you would
find prayer, atonement and sacrifice very little to save yourselves and
your children.
"My graced children, you must all unite now
and fight the common enemy of My Son. Go forth as disciples of the Father,
knowing that the ultimate victory is with the Father in the Kingdom.
"Better, My children, that you have a small
circle of blessed friends than to socialize among the wicked. Make your
home a fortress of godliness. Remove your children from a world that has
become...and given to Satan. The greatest responsibility for the young soul
will be given to the parents. Keep the Faith in the heart of those you love."
Veronica--Now Our Lady is extending Her Rosary
out like this. And now Our Lady is extending out...
Our Lady--"I bless you, My children: In
the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost."
Veronica--Our Lady is now smiling, and She's looking
over to Her right, our left, and She's going like this. Our Lady's Rosary
is very large; the beads are very large. They're white, and the Our Father
is golden and the crucifix has--now I notice the crucifix has a large globe
on the top. Yes, a large globe over the crucifix. Our Lady is saying:
Our Lady--"Yes, My child, My Son is carrying
the burdens of the world's sins upon His shoulders again."
Michael, the Warrior of Heaven
Veronica--Now all who are able, please kneel, because
Jesus is coming down to bless sacramentals. Oh, Our Lady is with Jesus,
and also Michael. Now Michael--oh, he has now--I never saw Michael with
a cape on. Now he has a cape; it's very large. The cape is a green color,
bordered in, in gold trim. It's like a gold braid. Now Michael, though,
is taking the cape off. I see that he has on a strange-looking sort of--oh,
I don't know, it looks like a warrior's outfit. No, I couldn't call it short
sleeves because it's like woven--fine woven type of braid on his arms down
to his elbows. And on his chest there is a, it appears to be a silver, metal--metallic-like
vest.
And he has now--oh, dear, a short skirt. Oh. Oh,
but he has on his legs like a braided, corded type of sandal. But I notice
on the back of the heels, it looks like wings, like--like one section of
a wing on the back of his heels. He's turning sideways. Now the corded braiding
of his leg also matches the gold braid on his cloak, that he just took off.
Now he's putting it over his arm, and Michael is still holding, now, that
scale. He has the golden scale in his hand and he's standing now. Michael--oh,
my goodness! he's, oh, at least six or seven times taller than Jesus or
Our Lady. And he doesn't look out of proportion, but he's very big! Now
I can't see Michael's face because of the light; it s very bright.
But now Jesus is coming forward. Jesus wants me
to describe His garments. He has on a burgundy-colored robe and a cream-colored,
not dress, gown--He says gown, not dress. And He has these--oh, sandals.
They're like crosspieces of sandals; they look brown. Now Jesus is opening
His cloak, and I see now it's imprinted on His garment a--oh, it's a heart,
a very red heart. But it looks like there's a sword through it, a golden-looking
sword; and Jesus is now bending over, and He says:
Jesus--"It is the gold, My child, that
has put the sword into My heart."
Veronica--Oh, I guess--I--I--I believe Jesus means--and
He's shaking His head "yes". It is the love of money that has
put the sword in His heart. The world's love of money and gain.
Now Jesus is bending over, and He's closed now
the cloak; so I can't see that part of His gown that has the heart. And
Our Lady is right behind Him.
Our Lady is--looks very beautiful. Now She has
a crown on Her head. It's a golden crown, but with a velvet-type of lining
inside. And on the crown is--oh! it's--on the top it has, like a ball with
a cross on the top of it. It's a golden, round ball with a cross on the
top. Our Lady is smiling. Oh, Our Lady says:
Our Lady--"You described it very well,
My child."
Veronica--And She's bending Her head down, and
now Our Lady is raising the crucifix of Her Rosary. Our Lady carries the
Rosary now about Her waist. There's a gold cord about Her waist, and She's
taking it now from Her waist. And now Jesus is coming forward, and He's
extending His hand, like this. And now, Jesus is saying:
Jesus--"I will bless all sacramentals.
They will be instruments for the conversion of sinners. Cures and conversions
far beyond what man has ever anticipated. All this I give you if you will
believe and come to Me."
Veronica--Now Jesus is raising His hand, like this,
and He is making the sign of the Trinity: In the name of the Father and
of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Now Our Lady and Jesus are floating over
to the right side of the flagpole, and They're looking down now; and Jesus
is raising His hand again, like this. Now He's though making the sign of
the cross: In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost.
THE BALL OF FIRE
Now Jesus is pointing up to the sky. Oh, He wants
me to--oh, there's that Ball again! That! oh, it's very large. It's a ball
of fire, and it has a--oh, I can see the tail very clearly now. It's a long,
orange tail. It's really a fiery red. It's very, very hot-looking. Now that--it's
really hurtling through the sky; it's just--zing, like that.
Now Jesus is pointing now down over--oh, He's making
His way over to our left side of the flagpole. He's floating over--He just
seems to glide; Our Lady and Jesus just glide over.
Now Jesus is coming down further; He's just about
the middle of the flagpole, but over here on the left. Now Jesus is smiling.
Now He's raising His hand again in front of Him, and He's making the sign
of the cross, like this: In the name of the Father and of the Son and of
the Holy ghost.
And Our Lady now is raising Her golden crucifix,
and She is also raising it so very high above Her head, like this, and She's
making the sign of the cross: In the name of the Father and of the Son and
of the Holy Ghost. And now Our Lady is turning over in this direction: In
the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Now Our Lady
is saying very, very softly, I can barely hear Her. Oh!
Our Lady--"Many conversions and cures,
many graces shall be given. Graces in abundance, graces for the asking.
All who come to My sacred grounds shall not leave unfulfilled."
Veronica--And Our Lady now is raising the crucifix
again: In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Now
Jesus is bending forward, and He's saying:
Jesus--"Remember the words of My Mother
well, for we do trust that you have not cast Her words aside or listened
to them with deafened ears. My Mother's warnings shall be heeded or the
world shall go through a heavy crucible of suffering. This we do not wish
to send upon you, but this man shall lead himself to if he does not heed
the warnings from Heaven."
Veronica--Now Jesus is blessing us, like this--I'm
trying...He says to bring my two fingers together, fingers together like
this. Oh! In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost.
Now, there's a tremendous light and I see--oh, there's Michael. And also
next to him are two, well, they're smaller in size, but they're gigantic!
Oh, they cover the whole sky! Neither of them look out of proportion. That's
Gabriel and Raphael. And now I hear there is music in the background. Oh,
I can hear the music--beautiful! It's a choir--it's just...voices, they
sound like children. There's no way to describe it.
Now it's growing very grey-looking and Our Lady
now is coming forward; and Jesus now has gone over to the right side, our
right side, by the trees; and Our Lady now is saying:
Our Lady--"Continue, My children, with
your prayers of atonement. Many are needed. In the name of the Father and
of the Son and of the Holy Ghost, Amen."
Veronica--Now there are coming down from the sky
slivers--they look like pieces of glass. It's just beautiful! Slivers--pieces
of glass. Our Lady says they're graces, graces. But, oh, they look almost
like frozen ice. I don't know how to describe them. They're just beautiful.
They're in every direction--they're just beautiful!
