Miracle of the Doves | A Peace of Heaven | Home

First Friday

Dear Friend of Our Lady,

We are just elated about the public miracle performed by the Eternal Father with the heart-stopping display of doves, probably the most spectacular ever on the sacred grounds. Witnessed by over 100 pilgrims, it occurred on Friday, February 2, the Feast of the Purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Not coincidentally, this feast recalls Mary’s sacrificial offering in the temple of a pair of doves in fulfillment of the Law of Moses for women after childbirth.

It all began at the end of the blessing of Jesus (about 9 p.m.) when hundreds of pure white doves shot out like arrows from the high rolling clouds and glided across the cold dark sky until they disappeared into the horizon. This happened in waves with one flock diving towards the Vatican Pavilion and Our Lady’s statue. It all lasted about 20 minutes with a show of, at least, 1000 doves. Some pilgrims estimate much more.

Nonetheless, it electrified the crowd and moved many to tears. For the live report and much more, and to capture the emotion and intensity of this gift from God, order show No. 162 of St. Michael’s Radio Program (see box below).

We’re looking forward to seeing you on the sacred grounds.

May God bless you through Our Lady and the greatest Warrior of Heaven,

P.S. We urge you to make a strong effort to disseminate the new Heaven Speaks Today on the Middle East. This topic is daily news and on the minds of everyone. A lot of people have heard Dan Rather and others speak about this hot spot, but we think a lot of people might want to hear what Heaven has to say, too.
