ROCKY RIVER – Fred Sokol, [former] Guardian – Our Lady of Guadalupe [Protectress of the Unborn Baby] Miraculous Missionary Image thanks Fr. Brown, Pastor and Fr. Bona, Assistant of Mary Queen of Peace Roman Catholic Church, Cleveland, Ohio for inviting Our Lady of Guadalupe Missionary Image and I, to Mary Queen of Peace Roman Catholic Church – and to allow us to meet the Parishioners on Saturday July 23, 2011 as well.

A SCENT OF ROSES, A WHITE BALL OF LIGHT ON MARY'S IMAGE -AND A MARIAN MIRACLE TAKES PLACE AT MARY QUEEN OF PEACE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH

• It was quite an interesting visit of Our Lady of Guadalupe Miraculous Missionary Image on Saturday, July 23, 2011 to Mary Queen of Peace Roman Catholic Church [and Mary’s Image last visit in Northeast Ohio.]For as Mary’s Image was Venerated by Parishioners that evening.  The people throughout the church smelled roses and so did I as well.  Also a ‘Miracle Picture’ of a ‘white ball of light’ upon Our Lady of Guadalupe Missionary Image was photographed as well [see above.]  

• All this took place at the time I was explaining to the parishioners about Our Lady of Guadalupe Miraculous Missionary Image – and while a Rain Storm raged outside the Church.   Surely Our Lord and His Blessed Mother were present and imparted their Blessings and Grace equally upon all present, upon Mary Queen of Peace Catholic Church, Parishioners, Pastor Fr. Brown, and Assistant Fr. Bona as well.

• For at about 6:30 pm after Holy Mass and Holy Hour was over at Mary Queen of Peace Roman Catholic Church.  While I, as Mary’s Guardian, was explaining to about 25 people who venerated Our Lady’s Image how Mary converted 8 million Pagan Aztecs to Catholicism through Her Miraculous Image [see picture below].

• A wild storm started raging outside Mary Queen of Peace Catholic Church.  Some of the people scurried about the Church in response to the storm.  Some people went directly to the open doors at the back of the Church to look out at the rainstorm.  Another person went to try to close some of the open windows from inside of the Church.

• Again, all the while I stood next to Our Lady of Guadalupe’s Miraculous Missionary Image - continuing to explain to about twenty [20] people what in Mary’s Image [How Mary spoke to the Pagan Aztecs through Her Image] caused eight [8] million Pagan Aztec Indians to convert to Catholicism in seven [7] years. 

THE SCENT OF ROSES IS ANNOUNCED

• Then, the many people that were originally scurrying through the Church because of the storm started to came back to the front of the Church.  They told us who stayed in front of the Church with Our Lady’s Image, that they smelled roses as they walked throughout the Church.

THE 'WHITE BALL OF LIGHT' IS PHOTOGRAPHED UPON OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE MIRACULOUS MISSIONARY IMAGE - A MARIAN MIRACLE IS REALIZED

• Because the people smelled roses, I knew that Mary and Her Son Jesus were now present in the Church extolling Blessings and Grace upon us and upon Mary Queen of Peace Roman Catholic Church.

• Immediately I asked my team member Kathleen to take two pictures of me standing next to Our Lady of Guadalupe Miraculous Missionary Image [see photos below.]  To at least “timeline” the moment that I found out “the scent of roses” was permeating Mary Queen of Peace Catholic Church and those in attendance smelled them. 

• However at this time I did not yet smell the Roses others smelled.  I wanted the pictures taken [below] because I was just happy others smelled the roses and I knew that Jesus and Mary were then present at the Church.

[Fred Sokol and Our Lady’s Image [above] after Fred Sokol found out people, were smelling Roses throughout Mary Queen of Peace Roman Catholic Church and that Jesus and Mary were present during his presentation of Mary’s Image at the Church – note the two white globes [above] in the photo]

Fred Sokol and Our Lady’s Image [above] two minutes after the picture directly above this photo was taken.  Note the white globe in the above photo that is not present in this photo – again, taken two minutes later.  Yet the white globe was in this scene just two minutes previous.  Where did the white globe go? 

NOW FRED SOKOL SMELLS ROSES

·         Then as I talked to two people who lived in the area just moments after these photos above were taken.   I then smelled the roses as well as the two people I was talking to did.  The scent of roses seemed to drop down on me from above and right at me and very poignant [like smelling ‘aftershave’ straight out of a bottle].  It seemed to me, that Whoever wanted me to smell the scent of roses - made sure I clearly smelled them.  

IN CLOSING

·         I knew a Miracle would take place when Our Lady of Guadalupe Miraculous Missionary Image came to visit us in Northeast Ohio.  But I didn’t know when, where or how.

·         Yet at Mary Queen of Peace Roman Catholic Church in Cleveland, Ohio, Mary and Her Son Jesus came to us, and blessed us with Grace and telling us that, through the scent of Roses and the “white globe” on a picture my friend took of Our Lady of Guadalupe Miraculous Missionary Image and I, on Saturday, July 23, 2011 - on the last stop of her Northeast Ohio visit.  Was that miracle.

LASTLY

·         Again, I thank all who made Her Visits in Northeast Ohio possible and I thank all who visited Her Image as well.  God Bless You All. 

·         I will seek to be Our Lady of Guadalupe Miraculous Missionary Image, Guardian again next year in 2012, and to be a Jesus and Mary Missionary from now on as well Lord willing.

Your Servant, Your Friend, Fred Sokol [former] Guardian, Our Lady of Guadalupe Miraculous Missionary Image
