7th Anniversary VTC Report

Visit to Veronica's Grave
Sunday July 28 1:30 p.m. - 2:30 p.m.

On July 28, after the Sunday Holy Hour, about 50 devotees gathered at Mount Saint Mary's Cemetery in Queens, New York, to remember the 7th Anniversary of our beloved seer, Veronica of the Cross. This holy woman--wife, mother, grandmother and latter day prophet--was called home to her well-deserved eternal reward on August 3, 1995 (see Veronica of the Cross Index for more information about this saintly woman).

Surrounding Veronica's headstone, the pilgrims prayed the Rosary; recalled her incredible capacity for suffering; beseeched her continued presence and blessing upon the Bayside Mission; and thanked her for her heroic sacrifice on behalf of mankind to whom she literally gave her life as God's voice-box in these apocalyptic times.


Veronica of the Cross in repose on August 5, 1995. The inscription below St. Theresa on the headstone reads: "Say one Hail Mary." Also buried with Veronica is her son, Raymond, who was tragically killed at age 16 in 1974 in a hunting accident, and her one-year-old granddaughter, Patricia, who died in 1976.

Our Lady of the Roses, Mary Help of Mothers made the trip for the occasion

Michael Mangan welcomes the pilgrims and gives a brief word on the
sanctity of Veronica of the Cross and her worthiness of being imitated and
invoked. Michael is the president of St Michael's World Apostolate
and also head of the lay order of St. Michael. In 1995, shortly before
Veronica's passing, Jesus and Our Lady directed Veronica to appoint
Michael as her successor in leading the Bayside Mission
(see Jesus and Mary chose Michael Mangan for the full story).

Vincent McDonnell, Vigil Coordinator, led the faithful
in the Rosary with five pilgrims selected to pray a decade.
