About the book: "These are my times," Our Blessed Mother said to her priests in the Marian Movement of Priests on 3 July 1987. She is especially chosen to play a key role in these latter days of the world. She shows great concern for the salvation of all her children throughout the five continents of the world. She identified herself as the "Woman Clothed With the Sun", chosen to do battle with the "Red Dragon" and his cohorts. The Blessed Virgin Mary once again clarified her role as Co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix of all graces.
The apparitions of Our Blessed Mother under the title of "Rosa Mystica" (Mystical Rose) at Montichiari in Northern Italy to a humble Italian woman, Pierina Gilli, have great significance for our times. The original purpose of these appearances of Our Blessed Mother was the reform of the clergy and religious houses. By appearing with the two children of Fatima, Francisco and Jacinta, on 7 December 1947 (the sixth apparition) in the parish church, she showed that her appearance under the title of "Rosa Mystica" was a continuation of the message of Fatima. She once again urged us to pray the Rosary and to do penance.
May this little book help to clarify the role of our Blessed Mother in these modern times and foster true charity and devotion to her Immaculate Heart. Her triumph over atheism and every other evil will be a great blessing to all her devoted children. The last chapter of this book tells of the happenings at St John of God Church in Chicago, Illinois, from 29-31 May 1984.
May this book, Mary The Mystical Rose (1974, 1988), which is based on the apparitions of Montichiari and dedicated to the Mother of the Church, contribute powerfully to a genuine renewal of Christian life and of society. However, renewal must, as throughout the Church's history, start from the shepherd and then spread to the flock. The shepherds must first be renewed, then the flock. Today, it is more necessary than ever.
