The Time Is Now

This letter was submitted by one of the regular Rome City pilgrimage organizers. Through her work and the power of the Holy Spirit, countlesss numbers of lives have been changed by simply making a one-day pilgrimage to the birthplace of Our Lady of America.


Over the past two years I have been bringing groups of people to Sylvan Springs. Each and every person that came left with a gift. Some were blessed with orbs in their pictures, some received spiritual healing and some were even healed physically. All who were able to have returned multiple times, bringing along family members and friends. Sylvan Springs is holy ground. There is no doubt about it. The miracles that I received there include many orbs in my photos including one the shape of a fetus as a direct result of a prayer....miracle. Mother Mary also appeared in one of my pictures.......miracle. It was she that requested me to bring her children to her. I have done so without reservation and without hesitation. There is an undeniable presence that is felt there by everyone. I believe it is a little taste of what it feels like to be in heaven. No matter what you are going through in your own life, while you are at Sylvan Springs, you feel peace.

The owner of the property purchased it in the year 2000, with hopes of making it into a sports camp for kids. Mary quickly showed him that that plan was not to be. There was another purpose. Through the years it has been a struggle to keep the doors open and the heat on, yet Larry has done so without reservation and without hesitation. Because of his determination, many, many people have had their lives changed drastically. Because of his faith, many have come to know God in a deeper way. While donations have been accepted to help defray the cost of utilities, no money has ever been accepted for access to the building, tours and lectures. There is no monetary profit to be gained.

We are holding to great hope that Mary will help preserve this place and that someone or a group of people will come forward with monetary assistance. There is so much to be lost if the doors of this holy place are closed. There is so much to be gained if it is preserved. The loss and gain is spiritual, eternal, everlasting. If you have the means or know someone who does, please make it known to them that the time is now. I ask that you prayerfully consider being a part of preserving the grounds of Sylvan Springs. Please follow God's call without reservation and without hesitation. If you feel led to help, please contact the moderator of this blog.

We will be having a day of prayer and healing on Friday, September 25 beginning at 12 Noon which will run through the regular Friday Night Rosary which normally begins at 6:30 pm. PLEASE JOIN US ON THIS SPECIAL 53RD ANNIVERSARY DATE OF THE BEGINNING OF OUR LADY OF AMERICA'S APPEARANCES.

Thank you,

Patti
