No, he will be going to Moscow to meet Vladimir Mikhailovich Gundyayev the head of the Russian Orthodox Church.
I am in doubt whether President Putin would risk compromising his solid relationship with the Orthodox Church with this possible invitation (considering that the more conservative Orthodox would find the Pope's presence offensive)
So it begins...of course Putin will welcome his visit and bring Francis. It validates the Orthodox Church. I’ll take an educated guess (educated by that little voice that never fails) the visit occurs just before or during Lent 2022
RETURNING WEDDING RINGS The girls would have their fingers full of wedding rings, and while in ecstasy they would raise up their hands and ask the Virgin to kiss them. After this they would return the rings to their owners without making any mistakes and without seeing who they were giving them to as their heads were always tilted backwards and their eyes fixed on the apparition above them. One day in front of me at Conchita’s house, Loli put on the right hand of a woman the wedding ring that at the request of the woman herself, as was the custom, she had first presented to the lips of the Virgin. Then advised by the Virgin, I saw her remove the ring from that finger and put it on the ring finger of the other hand. The spectators thought the child had made a mistake. Not so. Filled with wonder and all in tears of joy, the person involved stated, “The Virgin knows well that in the region of Valencia where I came from, the wedding ring is worn on the left hand, contrary to the Spanish custom.” From : “Memoirs of a Spanish Country Priest” by Father José Ramon Garcia de la Riva , Page 17
The pope gave an interview where he evokes being disposed to go meet the Patriarch in Moscow: "meeting Patriarch Kirill is close on the horizon"! I'm sorry, but I posted a video with French subtitles, but you can activate English subtitles in the settings.
Conchita: "The pope will go to Russia, to Moscow. As soon as he returns to the Vatican, hostilities will break out in different parts of Europe." And if the time comes that the Pope visits Moscow and returns and nothing happens, then we will know that Garabandal was not authentic. Otherwise it will be very clear.
As much as I hope that this Papal visit to Moscow is the one preceding the beginning of hostilities and the Warning, let's not get too excited. We also know from Conchita that something is to happen that will cause many people to stop believing in Garabandal. Interesting enough she said this on December 6th 1962...the information that the Pope is willing to go to Moscow came out on December 6th. I believe it's just a coincidence but we can never know... Maybe the Pope will go to Moscow and when he returns, nothing happens, causing many people (who were waiting this papal visit as a sign for the events to start unfolding) to stop believing in Garabandal...and then he goes back to Moscow again a couple months later and this is the one Anyway, I believe that the Warning and the Miracle will happen before 2030. Because Conchita was thinking that Joey Lomangino would still be alive when it happens. "Most definitely at midnight (eight days before the Miracle) I will call Joey, radio, television, and anyone else in the world that I feel can help to spread the word rapidly." Joey Lomangino was born in 1930, he would have been in his 90s today. Were the Warning and the Miracle to happen anytime after 2030 (Joey would have been 100+years old), Conchita wouldn't have been so sure about him being alive at the time.
And I am bloody scared... I must admit, mostly for my daughters and family. I don't think that was ever the problem.
Perhaps you should consider allowing God be the judge of your family and not yourself. His love for us is greater than or sins. He is our Redeemer. Never forget that the first step to death is condemnation. Jesus demonstrated this when he faced Pilate. Will you stand before Jesus and witness to the love you have experienced in your family? Not that he doesn’t know this already. Leave the kids alone. God has a loving plan for them as he does for you and I. Pray for them, that they will come to know the love of God in their hearts, the love they receive from a loving parent, a loving and caring father and mother. And if they claim not to believe in God, then understand that God believes in them. Why else would he create them. My experience tells me that when kids say they don’t believe in God, what they are really saying is that they don’t understand. After all, God and his ways are mystery. “A man’s steps are from the Lord, so how can anyone understand his own way?” (Proverbs 20:24) Don’t let satan worry and hassle you to death over your family’s journey to Heaven.
Thank's brother, but it is not so much in that sense that I am afraid... The warning and the miracle of Garabandal are awaited with joy and hope. What scares me the most, especially for my children, is the whole context in which everything will happen, maybe war, lack of food and other basic things, diseases (and this has already started) and especially the time that all this tribulation will last .
So do not worry about tomorrow, tomorrow will take care of itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. (Matthew 6:34 Trust in Providence)
Does there exist a convenient search engine on this discussion forum? Once again, I am trying to locate any one of the posts where Glenn has listed many well-known Catholic personages who have espoused the happenings of Garabandal. Thanks!
NOTABLE BELIEVERS OF GARABANDAL Yes, there are many known and unknown, Popes, Saints & Blessed's, and Church leaders who believed. I can’t think of another apparition with this resume of believers. Saint ( Padre ) Pio Saint (Pope) John Paul II Saint (Pope ) Paul VI Saint (Mother) Teresa of Calcutta Saint (Fr. ) Jose Maria Escriva Saint (Madre) Maravillas Pope Benedict XVI Sr. Lucia of Fatima Venerable Marthe Robin, Venerable Fr. Ciszek , Venerable Padre Nieto, Cardinal Ottaviani (Vatican Prefect of the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith) , Archbishop of Madrid, Casimiro Morcillo Gonzalez Arch Bishop Carlos Sierra of Madrid, Spain, Arch Bishop Manuel Lopez of Mexico, Bishop of Fatima Joao Venancio, Fr. Constant Luis Pel Madre Esperanza of Jesus, Fr. Aloysius Ellacuria Mother Angelica You’re in good company !
At least since Gorbachev, the main obstacles of that trip were never the Russian political authorities but the Russian Orthodox Church. To visit Russia was a wish of last two popes as well, especially John Paul II. However, this trip was never possible because last two popes did not compromise on the main points of disagreement between the Holy See and the Russian Orthodox Church. Popes Benedict and John Paul had standing invitations from the Russian government but could not go because they received no matching invitation from the Orthodox Church. Francis would need the same to go to Russia. (Reuters, November 7, 2013) Things are quite different under Francis' pontificate and everyone believes that such trip will now be possible, and this is a bad sign because this conviction essentially results from the recognition of a change that has taken place not in Russia but in the Catholic Church.
Many thanks, Glenn. Please consider reposting this list of names from time to time - perhaps even monthly. It's remarkably compelling. There's several credible heavyweights in this impressive "résumé of believers." Finally, for any silent viewers of this discussion thread who might be dubious of St. (Mother) Teresa of Calcutta's favourable opinion of Garabandal, attached below are five photos depicting her standing alongside Conchita, one of the principal visionaries. More details here: www.garabandalthemovie.com/en/garabandal/witnesses/861-mother-teresa-of-calcutta Saint (Mother) Teresa was also the godparent (aka 'sponsor') of Conchita's third daughter, Anna Maria Josefa, who was baptized on August 31, 1976. During her many flights to New York, Mother Teresa generally made an effort to visit with Conchita, a resident of Long Island since 1972.
