Five years ago when I was in a terrible, painful situation after a chemotherapy, I held my Holy Rosary and prayed. I was emotional and called our Lady to please pray for me, help me during my ordeal. With my eyes closed, I saw the Blessed Virgin Mary right in front of me, then I opened my eyes but She wasn’t there anymore. I then continued my prayers … Everyday and always a believer of the Holy Rosary. Blessed Virgin Mary pray for us. Amen. 🙏🏼❤️

Amen! Please pray for me and my children. I know Jesus is coming soon. I will keep faith. I will lay my fears upon the Lord! As a single mother I’m overwhelmed at times because both of my children are autistic. I’m desperately struggling trying to support them my husband passed years ago. Since covid I’ve been struggling. I lost my job as a social worker at Forsyth hospital because I declined the vaccine. I declined because of my pre existing health condition lupus and heart disease. I was denied my medical/religious exemption. I’m waitressing and I’m so THANKFUL to be working again, but I’m not making nearly enough to make ends meet. I also started homeschooling my boys due to them having many issues including bullying so my hours to work are limited. But even as I struggle every month to pay rent and to buy groceries and even though I’m ashamed because of my situation. I have faith that God will provide. He has this far. Faith is truly the key. Please pray for me and my children. GOD BLESS!😊❤

I have a Statue of Our Blessed Mother in my Garden and I planted roses all around her, so she is surrounded by white roses.

my daughter always goes in our backyard and picks a rose and puts it in the arms of Mary and Joseph (our Holy Family ) statue

The other night, after I prayed the rosary (it had been a while since I'd prayed it), I got up and went down the hall, and I could swear Mother Mary came down the hall with me. Not visibly, but in spirit. There is something I entrusted to her that's going to come to pass or not within the next week or two. She wanted me to know she didn't forget about it, I guess.
