The Three Days Of Darkness
And the Events to Precede


       These pages are compiled after a study of variousquotations of Our Divine Lord, Our Blessed Mother, and a number of holy people such as Blessed Anna Maria Taigi (Rome),Padre Pio (Capuchin Priest, Italy), P're Lamy (Priest, France), Elizabeth Canori-Mora (Rome), Sister Rosa Colomba Asdente (Italy), Father Nectou (JesuitPriest, Belgium), Sister Palma D' Oria (Italy), Sister Marie Baourdi (Carmelite, France), Marie Julie Jahenny (France), Saint Hildegard (Germany), MarieMartel (Normandy), a Stigmatized Nun in Italy - and others. (Note: This work was slightly edited in view of new revelations).
 
       While our Holy Church gives no officialpronouncement regarding these s tatements, yet when several people of proven holiness and simplicity, widely separated, givesimilar prophecies, then the Church gives at least some credence to their sayings. As a certain priest has said, "How else is God to speak to his people,except through revelation!"
 
       What is written is not given to frighten, but onlyto warn so that we may prepare ourselves, Sanctify our lives, and offer our good works to save souls for God. In anyevent, Holy Church always urges us to be in a State of Grace at all times, to be everprepared for a happy death so that we may be found worthy to enter Heaven and behold God face to face for eternity.
 
       A number of people have requested that thiscompilation be made, therefore it is humbly offered, for the glory of God. Feast of Corpus Christi, 1966 and Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, 199 6.

nakedness of dress,countless sins and iniquities, people concerned only with the body, with eating, drinking, dancing, amusement, entertainment, and pleasures.
 
      Flaunting and abuse of Church laws, irreverenceand immodesty in church, falling attendance at church, neglect of holy conduct on Sundays, neglect of the sacraments, sacrilegesagainst the Body and Blood of Christ become rampant, sinful pride in sham-religious activities, general apostasy within t he Church, rampantheresies, many religious will fall away and take souls with them, declining religious vocation, Christian countries become lands of pagans, enemies ofreligion, persecution of the true faith, suppression of the Church will increase and there will be many martyrs.
 
      Lack of charity, heartlessness, indifference andlack of concern for our neighbor, people turning against each other, even in the bosom of the family, people proud in their ownknowledge, and turning away from God.  Just glance at the daily newspapers to see clearly the above impending signs.

II. The Immediate Signs.
      The night will be bitterly cold, the wind willhowl and roar, then will come lightning, thunderbolts, earthquakes, the stars and heavenly bodies will be disturbed and restless.There will be NO light, but TOTAL BLACKNESS, utter dark will envelop the entire earth. This will come suddenly like a flash!
 
      Not a single Demon will be left in Hell, hellwill be emptied and every evil spirit will be released to roam over the earth and do all possible harm to souls. The evil ones willappear in the most frightening forms and will fill the air with pestilence and poisonous gases, there will be terrifying apparitions. Many will diefrom fear and despair, the wicked people will behold the Divine Heart of Our Lord.
 
      "My angels, who are to be the executioners ofthis work, stand ready with pointed swords and they will take special care to annihilate all those who mock Me and would notbelieve in My revelations."
 
      Hurricanes of fires will rain forth from Heavenand spread over all the earth, fear will seize mortals at the sight of these clouds of fire, and great will be their cries oflamentation, many godless will burn in the open fields like withered grass. God's wrath will be poured out upon the whole world, the chastisement will beterrible, such as never before, and will afflict the
entire earth.
 
      Satan will triumph in these awful days, and hellwill appear to have gained possession of the world, but God will reclaim it, for even this chastisement is an act of God's mercy.He tells us not to pray against it, as it must come, but pray to save yourself and as many others as possible, and pray that these days may be shortened.

III. Between the Impending Signs and the Immediate Signs.
      There are predicted two other occurrences, asadditional and final warnings before the terror of the three-day darkness:
 
THE GREAT WARNING.
      A Prodigy during which time every soul will beshown exactly how they have offended God and to what extent. This will be a time of such intense personal suffering thatmany will wish to die, but no one will.
 
THE GREAT MIRACLE.
      A Miracle similar to that at Fatima, a greatwonder to convince many, predicted to take place on the Feast Day of a young martyr of the Eucharist but not on a holy day ofOur Lady. The miracle will last for about a quarter of an hour and will be visible from Garabandal, Spain, and the surrounding mountains. Our Holy Fatherwill see it no matter where he is at the time. This miracle will take place on a date which will be announced eight days before. Afterwards, Godwill leave a sign in memory of it. It can be shown on TV for the whole world to see.
 
THE CROSS IN THE SKY.
      As late as 1965, the three days of darkness wasspoken of again in a holy person in Europe: "The Divine fire and the fire of hell will arrive and last during the days of darknessindicated by all the saints. My luminous cross will appear in the sky, it will be the sign that the final events are close, and will remind all of Myterrible passion, so that they will have time to reflect, for I shall not punish the world without previous announcement. All will have time tocomprehend the significance of that cross in the sky, and everyone shall see it. All will know, even those who reject it, that this My cross will be the sign thata Redeemer came once to bring salvation and pardon. My cross will be honored as never before."

IV. What to Do For Protection During the Three Days.
      As soon as you perceive the disturbed signs ofthe very cold night: Go inside, shut and lock all doors and windows, pull down the shades, keep the doors and windows well covered, goand stay away from doors and windows. Do not look out, do not go outside for any reason, and do not talk to anyone outside. Demons will imitate yourloved ones' voice to entice to go outside and kill you. ANYONE WHO LOOKS OUT OR GOES OUT WILL DIE IMMEDIATELY! The wrath of God is holy and He does not want us to see it.

LIGHT YOUR BLESSED CANDLES.
      All will be black, and the only thing which willgive light will be blessed wax candles; even these will not burn in the houses of the godless and scoffers. Once lit, nothingwill put them out in the houses of the believers. Be sure to keep a supply of blessed wax believers. Be sure to keep a supply of blessedwax candles in your homes - also - Holy Water to be sprinkled freely around the house, especially at doors and windows. Bless yourself and others withit. Drink it and anoint your senses with it (eyes, ears, nose, mouth) and hands, feet, and forehead.

STORAGE OF FOOD.
      Keep on hand a sufficient supply of food, waterand blankets for those of your household and any visitors. Do not count on any utilities.

DO NOT TAKE ANIMALS INTO YOUR HOME.
      Taking care of your animals by leaving enough food and water outside for them to last these days. God will preserve the property of the elect, including their animals. It is assumed that house pets may be kept inside. Animals which have been petted or cared for by a blessed person receive a certain protection.

KNEEL DOWN BEFORE A CRUCIFIX AND PRAY INCESSANTLY.
      Pray with outstretched arms, or prostrate on thefloor, pleading for many souls to be saved. Make acts of contrition of faith, hope and love. Make acts of SpiritualCommunion. Read spiritual books.

PRAY THE ROSARY.
      Meditate on its mysteries. You must think more ofthe Passion of Christ.

CALL UPON GOD'S MERCY.
      And call upon Our Blessed Mother for He has giventhese times into the care of the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary (under that title). "No harm will come to those who arein the state of grace and seek My Mother's
protection."

INVOKE THE INTERCESSION OF SAINTS.
      Call upon the Holy Trinity, Holy Mary, SaintJoseph, Saints Peter and Paul, Saint Therese (the Little Flower), Saint Francis of Assisi, Saint Elizabeth of Hungary, Saint Conrad ofParzham, The Holy Angels, your own Guardian Angels, and Saint Michael the Archangel. The cry: "Who is like unto God?" (the motto of SaintMichael) will serve as a protection to many.
 
      Those who are caught traveling on the road andunable to get to shelter will die as martyrs and be taken to Heaven, if they are good. Some children and others will be taken toHeaven beforehand, to spare them the horror of these days. "THOSE WHO DISREGARD THIS ADVICE WILL BE KILLED INSTANTLY"
 
      The three days of darkness have already beenpostponed several times by the increased prayers and the sacrifices of good people and through the intercession of Our Blessed Mother. Now they will no longer be delayed because sins have multiplied beyondmeasure. THEY WILL COME SOON, for in the merciful plan of God, this world must be purified of its sin. It is predicted that these Three Days ofDarkness will come and no one will escape the terror of these days!"
 
      "I will find them all."

V. The Aftemath.
      After the three days of chastisement are over,there will be no ungodly persons left, the godless will be annihilated. Seventy-five percent of humanity will be destroyed,more men than women. Everyone left on earth will believe in God with all their hearts. The devastation will be astonishingly great, but the earth willbe urified. The spiritual fervor of the early Christians will return, but there will be so few men left on earth. When all seems lost, then in atwinkling all will be saved, the sun will shine again and it will be as springtime, all fair and beautiful. The Holy Angels will descend from Heaven andspread the spirit of peace over the earth, and the just will be able to start life anew.
 
      Some nations will disappear entirely, and theface of the earth will be changed. There will be no more big business, huge factories and assembly lines which will sap men's soulsand moralities. People will return to the land. Our Holy Church will rise again, and religious communities will flower. A feeling of immeasurablegratitude will possess the hearts of those who survive this terrible ordeal and, upon the return of light, all should kneel down immediately and give thanksto the Holy Trinity for their protection, and Bless God. Then will follow the era of peace as promised by the Blessed Virgin at Fatima.
