REPARATION
"Let the world know I am the same Jesus, total,
complete, living before you, giving Myself
to you totally in the Eucharist."
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
"BEHOLD MY LIVING PRESENCE."
May 22, 1998
Nancy and friends were in the apparition room at her
home when Jesus appeared on the crucifix. Nancy also saw
a vision of a large mystical heart and asked if anyone in
the room had said anything to Jesus. One of the friends
said, "I prayed to the Blessed Mother to teach me how to
love Jesus."
Jesus then said, "Love My Eucharistic heart and live
by My word.
"Be refreshed, be renewed, be alive through the
sacramental life that I have given you."
Nancy saw the monstrance on the small desk burst in
mystical light as a vision of a Host all in light appeared
in the monstrance. [A priest had left the empty monstrance
with her for safe-keeping in the apparition room while
traveling for a couple of months before his new
assignment.]
Jesus continued speaking, "Adore Me, praise Me, thank
Me, worship Me in the Eucharist. My living presence is in
the Eucharist. Believe and know that I am total, complete
in the Eucharist."
Nancy now saw the monstrance disappear as a Host again
appeared in mystical light.
Jesus said, "Behold My living presence. Behold My
living presence. Behold My living presence."
Nancy saw Jesus turn His head to the left and downward
like He had just died. Moments later Jesus appeared alive
again. He turned His head and began to speak:
"Stand with My Mother. Stand with Me.
"Stand with Me. Stand with My Mother."
Nancy again saw a mystical Host appear in the
monstrance as the entire monstrance appeared in bright
mystical light. She then saw Jesus alive on the crucifix.
and said, "Praise Jesus. Praise Jesus."
Nancy asked Jesus about an earlier message from the
Blessed Mother who had said that, "The Church is dividing."
[This April 2, 1998 message follows this message.]
Thinking that she may not have heard correctly, Nancy
asked Jesus why the Blessed Mother had used the word
"dividing". Jesus explained that the word "dividing" was
used "because it continues to divide."
Then Nancy saw the mystical Host again appear in the
monstrance and again burst in bright, mystical light.
Jesus said, "The Holy Father, he suffers."
Nancy saw tears fall onto Jesus' shoulder.
Jesus said, "I want devotion to My Sacred Heart and to
the Immaculate Heart of My Mother.
"On the First Friday and the First Saturday you are to
make special prayers. Father will guide you." [Jesus was
referring to a specific priest.]
"Our Hearts are united.
"My children, be not afraid to be My witnesses. As I
bear witness for you, I ask you to bear witness for Me. I
tell you, unceasingly I pray for you before My Father. I
am the living Jesus Who speaks to you, Who suffers for you,
Who loves you, Who desires all of you. Give Me all of your
heart."
Nancy saw a side profile of the face of Jesus become
one with the face of an old man, like an image in a picture
that Nancy had seen of God the Father. A mystical Host
again appeared in the monstrance as Jesus continued
speaking:
"Let the world know I am the same Jesus, total,
complete, living before you, giving Myself to you totally
in the Eucharist."
The suffering face of Jesus appeared.
"Please go to Confession. Receive Me in the state of
grace, please."
Nancy saw the corpus of Jesus on the crucifix and a
vision of a Host bursting in bright mystical light at the
same time. Nancy said "He is one; I can't tell the
difference." It was as if Jesus and the Host were of one
light.
Then Nancy saw the wall behind the crucifix become a
scarlet color and an image of the world appeared in a pink
or red color. The image of the world grew darker yet Jesus
remained alive in light on the crucifix along with the
light forming the mystical Host. The monstrance then
turned into a large, mystical heart.
Jesus said, "There is darkness over the world. The
darkness grows.
"Again I say, I love you." Then the image of Jesus on
the crucifix became still and the visions ended.

"THE CHURCH IS DIVIDING."
April 21, 1998
The Blessed Mother appeared to Nancy in her home. Many
saints accompanied her. She could hardly speak as she
repeated these words three times to Nancy in a soft gentle
voice: "The Church is dividing."

A EUCHARISTIC MIRACLE?
A MANIFESTATION OF THE STIGMATA?
May 13, 1998 - Conyers
On the evening of May 13, 1998, a number of people
including Nancy and Catalina, the Bolivian stigmatist and
visionary who is a fruit of Conyers [see the April '98
Conyers Journal], attended Mass.
During the Liturgy of the Eucharist of the Mass, the
priest gave everyone receiving Holy Communion the Eucharist
in the same manner, by intinction. He first partially
dipped the consecrated Communion Host into the chalice of
consecrated wine that was held by Dr. Ricardo Castañón, who
was assisting him, and then he placed the Host on the
tongue of each communicant.
When Catalina received Holy Communion, she was kneel-
ing in front of the altar and Nancy was kneeling at her
left. Dr. Castañón was next to the priest and he could see
what occurred as Catalina received Holy Communion. Ron
Tesoriero, the Australian lawyer and documentary producer,
was at Catalina's right and was discreetly video taping
parts of the Mass.
Dr. Castañón later described seeing what appeared to
be a drop of blood coming out of the Host on Catalina's
tongue and then spreading throughout the Host. He
indicated that he had seen this happen on 5 or 6 other
occasions. He said that although Catalina can not see what
is occurring, she can sense when it is happening.
When Dr. Castañón saw what was happening, he whispered
to get Nancy's attention. Nancy looked toward Catalina and
saw the Host on Catalina's tongue. On the top of the Host
Nancy saw what appeared to be a drop of blood. She then
lowered her head in reverence to what she had just seen.
Ron Tesoriero was in a position to record on video
tape this unusual event. Along with Dr. Castañón, Ron had
been present on other occasions when this phenomenon had
occurred. Based upon his study of the video tape, he later
described what happened:
"Father Renzo takes a Host from the chalice and dips
the tip of it into the chalice that Dr Castañón continues
to hold. The Host is white but that part that has been
dipped into the wine is seen to be off white verging to a
pinkish colour. Father Renzo places the Host on Nancy's
tongue. He then moves in front of Catalina and repeats the
same process to distribute Communion to her. From the
angle the camera is at and because of the imprecise focus
of the camera at that instant, I could not get a clear view
of what was on Catalina's tongue before the Host touched
her tongue. After Catalina received Communion she closed
her mouth. Dr Castañón then gestured to Catalina to open
her mouth so that Nancy and the others next to her could
see her tongue. Catalina's face at this stage is turned
away from the camera but the camera recorded the sound of
the sighs of those reacting to what they were seeing on
Catalina's tongue. I then moved over with the camera and
Catalina again opened her mouth. What I recorded on film
at that moment shows up close in clear focus part of the
Host soaked with a dark reddish blood-like coloured
substance. The Host seemed to be resting on the front of
her tongue which was more elevated than the back section.
That part of the Host which was in more contact with the
tongue is where the blood-like soaked area appeared to be."
On their journey to Conyers, Catalina, Fr. Renzo, Dr.
Castañón and Ron Tesoriero first visited Miami, Florida.
Ron Tesoriero later described what he saw and recorded on
video tape during Masses on May 9th and 10th, 1998:
May 9, 1998 - Miami
"Father Renzo then said the Mass. At Communion time
I filmed Catalina as she received Communion. Father Renzo
had first dipped the Communion Host into the chalice of
clear coloured wine then placed it on Catalina's tongue.
I was able to focus the camera close on the tongue at this
moment. The Host appeared to have blood on the part of it
that rested on the forward edge of her tongue.
"Dr Castañón, who was beside Catalina, points into
Catalina's open mouth and began to explain so that it could
be recorded on camera and said, "Catalina received the
Communion some seconds ago and it begins to bleed. Look at
this." As Dr. Castañón says this, Catalina's tongue moves
and the Communion Host on her tongue becomes coloured and
moistened over about half its area with what appears to be
blood."
May 10, 1998 - Miami
"The following day Father Renzo said Mass for a
private group in the garden area of the residence of . . .
in Miami.
"There were about 20 or so people present including
Catalina, Dr. Castañón and myself. I filmed part of the
Mass and especially Catalina at Communion time. I was in
a position where I was able to film Catalina's open mouth
before the receipt of Communion. On examination of the
tape it is clear that Catalina's tongue had what appeared
to be blood on it just before the communion was placed in
her mouth. Catalina then received Communion, closed her
mouth, knelt down and closed her eyes with her hands
joined. After about 20 or 30 seconds, Dr. Castañón comes
up to Catalina and asks her to open her mouth so that I can
film inside. Catalina opens her mouth and the camera is
able to focus up close. What is seen is her tongue which
is partially covered with what seems to be blood and the
Communion Host on her tongue which seems saturated with a
mixture of saliva and blood..
"The Mass ended about four or five minutes later. I
then asked Catalina to open her mouth so that I could film
inside it again. When she did there was no sign of any
blood on her tongue.
"Dr Castañón then says, "What surprises me is, before
she received Communion, you can see on her tongue already
blood but you cannot see from where it comes."
Ultimately it will be for the Church to decide whether
any Eucharistic miracle and/or any authentic manifestation
of the stigmata may have occur when Catalina received Holy
Communion. The events described above are recorded in this
Journal so that people will have the benefit of first hand
accounts from eye witnesses who were in the best position
to describe what occurred.

A REFLECTION
ON EUCHARISTIC LOVE
Three years ago Jesus asked Nancy to open the Bible
and turn to John 6, John 15 and St. Luke's account of the
Last Supper, Luke 22. George assisted Nancy and did as
Jesus asked. After George read the verses, he excitedly
said, "All three are connected! That's beautiful and
awesome!"
Nancy and George waited for Jesus to say more, hoping
that He would teach about the connection but Jesus said, "I
have just made the connections. Put them together and
write about them." [4/12/95]
George began by writing this first reflection which is
based upon the Gospel of John, Chapter 6 :
JOHN 6: THE BREAD OF LIFE - SELF-SACRIFICING LOVE
When we see spiritually, we will see Jesus' great,
self-sacrificing Love before we see His suffering on the
cross.
At the beginning of John 6, Phillip asked Jesus, "How
are we to buy bread, so that these people may eat?" Out of
love for the people, Jesus multiplied five loaves of bread
and two fishes to feed the multitude of 5000 men.
The next day the people searched for Jesus to make Him
a worldly king because He had fed them. They found Him on
the other side of the Sea of Galilee. Jesus said to them,
"Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you
saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves. Do
not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food
which endures to eternal life, which the Son of man will
give you; for on Him has God the Father set His seal."
[John 6:26-27 RSV]
Jesus was teaching us that hunger in our hearts for
worldly things that perish, such as success, money,
recognition, status, comfort and worldly security, can
enslave us and take the place of our desire and hunger for
Him, the source of true Peace and Love.
At Calvary and in each Mass, Jesus gives us His Love -
His Body and Blood - sacrificed for us in the most Holy
Eucharist. Jesus said to His disciples, "I am the bread of
life; he who comes to Me shall not hunger, and he who
believes in Me shall never thirst." [John 6:35 RSV]
Jesus once told Nancy, "Love is Life. Life is Love."
[undated] Therefore the Bread of Life is the Bread of
Love. Speaking from the tabernacle Jesus told Nancy, "I am
a living sacrifice of Love." [7/17/93] He also said, "Did
I not show the world there is love in the cross? I showed
the world Myself completely in the cross." St. John has
written, "... for God is love." [1 John 4:8]
As we stop and meditate more on Jesus' Passion, we see
more and more spiritually through the eyes of love. We see
how much love He had for us to sacrifice Himself on the
cross completely for love of us. We see that His sacrifice
of love was to show us the way and to save us from our
selfishness, hunger and attachment for worldly things which
leads us away from Him and from His love and peace.
He tells us to be like Him - full of love and peace -
and He gives us His very self to feed on so that we may
grow in Him and in His life. He tells us to become little
children and feed on His love and, in this way, we can grow
in His love.
Jesus has told Nancy, "For every soul I have humbled
Myself. In a most humble form I have given mankind My Body
and My Blood, My soul, My Divinity. My love is perfect in
every consecrated Host." At this moment Nancy saw a
mystical heart appear. [7/24/94 - previously unpublished]
At the Last Supper Jesus gave thanks, broke the bread
and gave it to His disciples saying, "This is My body which
is given for you." [Luke 22:19] And to Nancy Jesus said,
"Let the world know I am the same Jesus, total, complete,
living before you, giving Myself to you totally in the
Eucharist." [5/28/98]
A child is very dependent on and appreciative of his
father's giving love and learns to depend and feed on the
father's love and ways. He stays close to the father,
keeping his eyes on him and depending on him completely.
Jesus has said repeatedly to Nancy, "Be little" and "Keep
your eyes on Me. Stay close to Me." We need to learn to
feed on Jesus' love and love like Him.
St. Teresa the Little Flower tells us that love is
nourished on sacrifice. As we grow in loving thanksgiving
and appreciation for the sacrifice of love that Jesus made
for us, we begin to taste and see the goodness of the Lord.
We taste His sacrifice of love and, by our love and
appreciation, we begin to feed and be nourished on His
sacrifice of love.
The more we taste and feed on Jesus' Living Sacrifice
of Love - His Body and Blood sacrificed for love of us -
the more we draw closer to Him and become more like Him.
We begin to hunger for His love more and more. Over and
over Nancy has seen Jesus appear on the cross and then His
body disappears and it is replaced by a Host and then she
sees a mystical heart.
Jesus once said to Sister Josefa Menendez, "Love gives
Itself as food to Its own and this food is the substance
which gives them their life and sustains them." [3/29/23
- pg 25 of "I Wiat for You"]
As we hunger for Jesus' love, we will desire to please
Him. We will please Him most by learning and doing His
will like little children.
Jesus tells us that His words reflect His will and
that these words are life. He has said, "My food is to do
the will of Him who sent Me, and to accomplish His work,"
[John 4:34 RSV] and "For I have come down from heaven, not
to do My own will but the will of Him who sent Me." [John
6:38 RSV]
As we hunger for and are nourished on the Word of God,
Jesus grows in us. The more we become dependent, little
children, feeding on our Father's words and Love (the Body
and Blood of Jesus in the Eucharist) the more we will grow
in His ways, His will. Jesus will live, move and grow more
and more in us, transforming our lives into living
sacrifices of love for others.

"America, wake up
before it is too late."
Part 22
On October 13, 1997 the Blessed Mother gave "a serious
warning" that "A great war will come upon this world,
greater than man has ever known." The next messages in the
series "America, wake up before it is too late" that follow
underscore this "serious warning" and the critical need
today for mankind to make reparation and the serious
consequences of not making reparation:
September 11, 1993
Nancy was in church praying. An angel appeared,
kneeling and facing the tabernacle which was on the wall to
the side of the altar.
Jesus said, "There is a false peace in the world, My
dearest daughter." An angel appeared on the sheet of paper
as Nancy wrote these words.
September 13, 1993
It was the day that Israel and the PLO signed their
initial peace accord in Washington, DC at the White House.
Just before noon, Nancy was praying in a small room
adjacent to the apparition room at the Farm. An angel
appeared, kneeling and facing the crucifix.
From the crucifix Jesus said to Nancy, "Dearest
daughter, there exists a false peace in the world today.
The only true and lasting peace comes from Me. Please tell
My children. Tell them about the signs I have given you."
Nancy immediately remembered her visions of the signs
of the sickle, the large bear and the oriental looking
military men.
"THERE WILL COME FROM CHINA A GREAT WAR."
September 13, 1993
During the monthly apparition, the Blessed Mother
said, "Revelations are coming to fulfillment."
Nancy saw Padre Pio appear.
The Blessed Mother was crying tears that looked like
blood. The Blessed Mother explained to Nancy that when she
sees visions of countries in red, it symbolizes suffering.
The Blessed Mother kept crying tears that appeared
like blood. Nancy saw visions of many angels and saints
and the whole area around where the Blessed Mother was
appearing was now red in color. The Blessed Mother kept
crying tears that looked like blood and not talking.
The Blessed Mother then said, "There will come from
China a great war ..."
Later the Blessed Mother gave her monthly message for
the United States:
"My dear children, look. [The Blessed Mother paused.]
What do you see? Listen. [She paused again.] What do you
hear? My dear little ones, if you do not know Sacred
Scripture within your hearts, you cannot understand the
time in which you live. Do not surrender your heart to the
Evil One. You are being called to remove all hatred,
jealousy, greed, unforgiveness. [The Blessed Mother was
crying what looked like blood.] Remove all impurities of
every kind. Be little, not prideful, dear ones. As your
Loving Mother, I speak to you as a mother. Please stop
judging. Do not surrender any part of your heart to the
spirits of darkness. My Son desires all of your heart.
[The Blessed Mother was radiant.] You do not know what
awaits you and what is close at hand. I solemnly tell you
that there is a false peace in the world. Do not be
deceived by this. Remain steadfast in your faith. I bless
you. As you make the Sign of the Cross, I will depart.
Please remember to thank my Son. I love you"
September 27, 1993
During the Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, Nancy
saw in a vision the life-size face of Christ appear in
mystical light. She saw a continuous flow of tears from
His right eye. Jesus never stopped weeping.
"AMERICA WILL BE A SLAVE STATE UNLESS
YOU RETURN TO ME AND MAKE REPARATION"
October 5, 1993
Jesus said, "Men are plotting war within their hearts.
America will be a slave state unless you return to Me and
make reparation for your grievous crimes, for your sins of
enormous magnitude, for your self-seeking way, for your
lack of mercy and love, for your tentacles of pride. For
your pride has infiltrated every gift I have given to you.
You have chosen of your own free will to be a slave to sin.
Then, I will permit you to live as a slave. These words
are solemn and they are meant to wake you up. Wake up
America to My love and mercy."
"WHERE IS REPARATION BEING DONE IN THIS WORLD?"
October 13, 1993
Jesus said, "The hour is rapidly coming of greater
purification. Greater tribulations are coming.
"Mankind, return to Me.
"Mankind, return to Me.
"Mankind, return to Me.
"Worship no other gods but Me alone.
"Woe be; woe be; woe be to this sinful generation.
"Where is the reparation? Where is the reparation?
Reparation, I tell you solemnly, where is reparation being
done in this world?"
As Jesus spoke Nancy saw a vision of an old man that
looked like the image of God the Father in the picture of
the last vision of Fatima. Nancy also saw a profile of the
face of Jesus in this vision. She then saw a vision of the
continents and red was going over them. Nancy again saw
red coming up from the floor and down from the ceiling and
merging. Saints continued to appear, one after another.
Jesus said, "I say: make reparation."

THE NEWEST CONYERS VIDEO
FOR ALL HUMANITY - UN LLAMADO A LA HUMANIDAD
The newest video has just been released in both
English and Spanish versions! A series of RELATED,
scientifically inexplicable happenings in both North
America and South America are examined in this documentary.
The questions it raises for science and religion could have
important implications for all humanity.
* A statue of Christ mysteriously weeps and bleeds
in Cochabama, Bolivia
* In the same city, a theologically-uneducated woman,
who bears the wounds of Christ's Crucifixion,
writes in a continuous fashion, profound theological
teachings, which she says are dictated to her by
Christ.
* Another women, in North America, claims that Christ
and the Virgin Mary are appearing to her and giving
important messages for the world. Unusual phenomena
in the sky are seen and neurologists are astonished
by their findings.
The camera is present to record these extraordinary
happenings and follow the path of investigation. The
result, a unique documentary, which makes an important
contribution in determining whether it is just
coincidental, unexplainable phenomena, or evidence of the
hand of God reaching out to humanity.
