Ruth and The Girls' Road Trip to Rome City!!



Ruth Kafader developed cancer and was given a scary prognosis by the doctors. Her family asked her if there was anywhere in the world she wanted to travel to before she got too sick.

Ruth, who had recently come to know of Our Lady of America said "I want to go to Rome City."

Well, daughter Laura got busy and organized the girls into a formative road force. She rented a local lake house for a few days as well as one of those large passenger vans and they were off like a herd of turtles to Rome City.

Once there, they toured the property and learned all about how the nuns lived there and what the place was like when Sr. Mildred experienced the Our Lady of America apparitions in 1956.
The girls were able to collect lots of reference info from the tables in the back of the chapel and Nick was able to provide a very helpful historical timeline for school reports they were eager to work on.

Rosaries were prayed and intercessions from Our Blessed Mother were sought by the ladies on behalf of their mother. Ruth and the girls were prayed over and anointed in the same area where the first OLA apparitions occurred. It was a very moving moment for them.

When it was time to leave, they took whatever it was Our Lady had given them.

After two weeks, Laura writes to inform us:
"I would like to share with you that my mother's cancer has stopped "growing". The doctors have stopped her chemo and she will go for a cat scan in three weeks to determine exactly what is going on."

We're rooting for you Ruth!! Keep doing what you're doing. We hope to see you back here again real soon.
