I will start from the beginning. It’s Sunday night, September, 1995 and I am in bed asleep when I am awaken for some reason known only to the vision standing in the corner of my bedroom, at first I thought I was dreaming, but it was soon very clear to me that this was not a dream, this was real, a vision of a lady dressed in a blue habit trimmed in white and wearing a blue robe and around her neck was a beautiful rosary. I closed my eyes, thinking when I opened them the vision in the corner would be gone, but she was still there, looking at me with much love and understanding. I am not afraid; I feel peace and love all around me.

This lovely vision standing before me is praying for me and when she is finished praying, she tells me I need to pray, pray for the world was her request, I asked her you want me to pray and again she said pray, you need to pray and the vision disappeared. The next morning I awaken with the request for prayer on my mind and who was this lovely vision of a lady and why did she appear to me. It wasn’t until a few months later, while looking through my book of Patron Saints given to me by a friend, that I realized my visit from the lady in the corner was Our Lady of Lourdes, the Blessed Virgin Mary.
