Streams of living water .. a story from Italy


Sr Briege McKenna, relates a wonderful prophecy in her book Miracles Do Happen (Veritas, Dublin). In a chapter titled the Queen of Peace, she writes: In May of 1981 I was ministering in Rome and had the privilege of praying with Fr Tomislav Vlasic, a priest from Yugoslavia.

He had asked me to pray for his parish back home. I received one of the images I often get. I saw a white church with twin steeples. 

Fr Tomislav was sitting in the main celebrant's chair in the sanctuary of this church and streams of living water were flowing from the altar. Many people were coming and cupping their hands to drink of this water. 

Fr Tomislav was very consoled by this image because his parish was going through hard times. The church was experiencing great difficulties and the government was less than sympathetic towards the Church. And it was about a month later on June 24 that Our Lady made her first appearance to five youths of Medjugorje. 

She has been appearing daily since then and there have been many conversions and miracles in that rural village. Thousands of people come from all over the world. Mary is asking people to return to her Son and telling them that if they would pray, fast and go to confession, there would be many conversions and conversion would lead to peace. And she calls herself the Queen of Peace. 

Fr Tomislav found himself in the very church I had described to him in the image in Rome
