Signs, Wonders, and Miracles

Signs, Wonders, and Miracles: News Connected to Christianity and Catholicism with Biblical Insight

I'm happy to announce the completion of my new website at the following link: http://www.christian-miracles.com/

On September 8, 1991, through a spiritual visitation, our Lord Jesus Christ imparted me (Loci B. Lenar) with a personal revelation and a prophetic vision of our world Blessed in Peace.

The Lord's plan is to move forward during our millennium and instill His peace amongst nations, religious denominations, and people. The contents of the message are unfolding in our millennium through signs, wonders, and miracles.

The following is noted in John, Chapter 4, Verse 48: Jesus said, "Unless you people see miraculous signs and wonders, you will never believe."

The following is conveyed in Ezekiel 12: 26-28, "Thus the word of the Lord came to me: Son of man, listen to the house of Israel saying, 'The vision he sees is a long way off; he prophesies of the distant future!' Say to them therefore: Thus says the Lord God; None of my words shall be delayed any longer; whatever I speak is final, and it shall be done, says the Lord God."

However, we must pray for God's divine intervention and remain patient, in order for Jesus to set the stage and timing for signs, wonders, and miracles to unfold in our world. Fervent prayer can accomplish much and change the course of history into an era of peace!

In Matthew 18: 19-20, Jesus said: "Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything for which they are to pray, it shall be granted to them by my heavenly Father. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them."

Fatima: Rays of God's Light

On July 11, 2008 at 3:45 PM, I photographed rays of God's Light in the Blessed Sacrament Chapel, located at the World Apostolate of Fatima, Washington, (Warren County), New Jersey, USA. The Catholic chapel had subdued lighting, so I used the flash to take indoor photographs. However, sunlight appears to be shining through the stained glass window, creating beautiful rainbow colors! The rays of light appear to be flowing towards the ceiling. I cannot explain the phenomenon; however, God seems to work in mysterious ways. Our Lord Jesus sends signs and wonders when we least expect it.

Remarkably, the stained glass window is a representation of the Miracle of the Sun which was witnessed by 70,000 people on October 13, 1917 at Fatima, Portugal. In addition, NJ.com reported that on September 8, 2007, visitors to the National Blue Army Shrine of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Washington, (Warren County), New Jersey, USA, witnessed the Miracle of the Sun and saw Jesus and Mary in the sky during the solar phenomenon. For information regarding the story, please visit the following link: http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2007/10/thousands_are_expected_to_gath.html

In John, Chapter 1, Verse 5, the following is noted: "Now this is the message that we have heard from him and proclaim to you: God is light, and in him there is no darkness at all."

In Psalm 150:1-2, the following is proclaimed: "Praise God in his Holy sanctuary; give praise in the mighty dome of heaven. Give praise for his mighty deeds, praise him for his great majesty."

Miraculous Signs at National Blue Army Shrine

The famous International Pilgrim Virgin Statue of Our Lady of Fatima. The statue is known as the Weeping Madonna and is reported to have shed tears 22 times. The information is printed on the back of the photo and available through the World Apostolate of Fatima.

(The following article by Jeff Diamant is published on the website of NJ.com, and reported that visitors were seeing a visual phenomenon at the Blue Army Shrine in Warren County, NJ by looking at the sun.)

As Fatima Anniversary Nears, Thousands Flock to NJ Shrine

by Jeff Diamant
Saturday October 13, 2007, 7:20 AM

Thousands are expected to gather today at a Catholic shrine in Warren County to celebrate the 90th anniversary of what they regard as a miracle: sightings of the Virgin Mary in Fatima, Portugal, by three shepherd children in 1917.

There's some added buzz this year: Last month, late one afternoon at the shrine, known as the National Blue Army Shrine, some people in a the crowd of 1,000 reported seeing the sun change colors and dance in the sky.

Some claimed to have seen the Virgin Mary and Jesus in the sun; others, the letter M. The crowd, most of them Filipino-Americans, had come to the shrine in honor of the birth of Mary, which Catholics celebrate on Sept. 8.

So far, chatter about the Sept. 8 events has been largely limited to word-of-mouth, a Spanish-language magazine, and a radio station. People have been calling the shrine each day to ask about what happened, said Michael La Corte, executive director at the National Blue Army Shrine, located off Route 31 in Washington Township.

"We have no expectations" of similar visions occurring (today)," said Michael La Corte, executive director at the National Blue Army Shrine, located off Route 31 in Washington Township. "We have no understanding of what happened in the first place."

La Corte, who was not at the shrine on Sept. 8.

The Portuguese shepherd children - Lucia Santos and her cousins, Jacinta and Francisco Marto - had said they saw visions of Mary, and heard essential messages from her about the world, on the 13th day of each month in 1917, from May to September. On Oct. 13 of that year, a crowd of about 70,000 gathered for what the children said would be the sixth appearance. Many who were there reported seeing the sun change colors and dart around the sky.

Metuchen Bishop Paul Bootkoski, who was not at the Warren County shrine on Sept. 8, is sending the reports to the Vatican to help determine whether the diocese should further investigate, said Joanne Ward, a spokeswoman for the Roman Catholic diocese of Metuchen.

Prayer to Mitigate Natural Disasters

God the Father, we join together in prayer, and petition heaven for divine intervention to mitigate earthquakes and natural disasters throughout the world.

We invoke the powerful name of Jesus to calm the storms of time and to bring forth a millennium of peace and tranquility.

We pray to the Virgin Mary to intercede on behalf of humanity for God's hand of mercy to bless us with divine protection.

We ask this and thank thee in the name of Jesus. Amen

I wrote the prayer in 2010 as a result of the earthquake in Haiti.

Our Lord inspired my heart to compose a prayer in order to petition God to mitigate earthquakes and disasters while I was praying for the victims of Haiti.

Please join in by reciting the prayer daily. Pray for the victims and families affected by the devastating earthquake in Turkey.
Thank you very much for your thoughtful prayer support.

-Loci B. Lenar

I wish to convey my thanks to everyone for tuning into Sacred Treasures on Monday (September 27, 2010) and listening to my testimony regarding God's spiritual gifts. I also wish to thank radio host, Kathie Duggan, for inviting me on her program.

Some of the topics discussed on the radio show are the events leading to my conversion. Our conversation focused on the spiritual presence of Archangel Michael including a cross which continues to appear on my property since 2005. I also discussed my healing of several medical conditions by receiving the sacrament of the anointing of the sick.

As a witness to God's signs, my hope is that everyone that hears my account will open their heart to receive the Lord's blessings and grace. By doing so, may Jesus guide you on the pathway to salvation, healing, and peace.

I believe God's timing has arrived to move forward with a great outpouring of the Holy Spirit for an upsurge of church wide evangelization.

With that in mind, radio host, Kathie Duggan has invited me back to her show to continue my testimony. An update will be posted when the schedule becomes available.

In the meantime, if anyone was unable to tune into Radio Maria, a recording of the radio program is available here on my blog for interested parties.

Sacred Treasures is a Catholic radio show, which is broadcasted on radio stations located in Pennsylvania and south into Texas. However, listeners can also visit the website of Radio Maria at http://radiomaria.us/ to hear the broadcast live between 3:00 PM -4:00 PM (Eastern Standard Time).

While visiting the website of Radio Maria, please do consider listening to some of their other wonderful programs.

"Cross Appears in 2011 during Lent and Holy Week as a Sign of God's Love," -- Loci B. Lenar

My wife had her cousin Diane Kayal visit our home with her family on Saturday, March 26, 2011. Her cousin's daughter, Brooke stayed overnight. The miracle cross appeared Sunday morning and while standing next to the image, Brooke said in awe, "It looks like Jesus." I believe that God has opened the windows of heaven and is pouring out the Holy Spirit on our world. Joel 2:28 says, "...I will pour out my Spirit on all people..." In Psalm 84:11, it reads, “For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor; no good thing does He withhold from those whose walk is blameless.”

"Cross Appears Annually Since 2005," Loci B. Lenar

The above cross appeared on my propetry several times in 2005. Incidentally, on March 25, 2008 by coincidence or perhaps I should say by providence, the Gloucester County Times of Woodbury, NJ, reported a front page story of a similar cross which was photographed by 9 year old Gwynna Crawford on Easter Sunday.

The cross appeared on a neighbor's house in Pitman, NJ (above photo). The article indicated that Gwyanna's mother and the neighbor were unable to find the source of the sun reflection.

Since 2005 and each year following, God the Father has blest me through His divine son, Jesus Christ, with a miraculous sign of a cross which appears annually on my residence in Mine Hill, NJ. Once again, on Saturday morning, March 27, 2010, a cross surrounded by a shield appeared on my backyard fence (above photo). The spiritual presence of God and His angels coincided with the start of Holy Week. The cross started appearing at the top of the fence as a result of sunlight and then slowly moved downward until it came in contact with the ground. At that point it turned into a round circle of light and then afterward it disappeared. The most recent cross was seen by my wife, Teresa, including my son, Ryan and his friend Nicole. With that in mind, God is calling for everyone to join in prayer for His blessings and graces to mitigate and extinguish violence throughout the world in order to usher in an era of peace. Our Lord is also calling for us to return to the sacraments of the church and to celebration of the Holy Mass.

Fr. Richard Tartaglia: Spiritual Director

By Loci B. Lenar

Almost twenty years have passed since I began my initial search for a spiritual advisor. I expected the process to be straightforward and simple; however, it became rather challenging. The most important element in my mind at the time was to find someone that could understand and relate to my spiritual circumstances. As a result, Fr. Richard Tartaglia (above photo) became my spiritual advisor. However, before making my decision, it was a hit and miss process with a few other priests. In hindsight, it was the appropriate choice. Fr. Richard is not only a skillful spiritual counselor, but I also consider him a friend. To read the complete story and for other photographs, please click on the above image.
