I happened to reminisce on some of the highlights of my Apostolate 50 plus years service in the Lord.

Many of you should be aware that I publicly announced the second coming of Christ in March 1970 by having it published in a traditional Catholic newsletter called, Veritas.

Our Lady clothed with the Sun, standing on the Moon. Only I used a Red Full Moon and put Our Lady of Fatima and Our Lady of Guadalupe in the center of the moon with twelve crosses around the edges of the Moon as on or like the back of the miraculous medal. St Catherine’s visions helped me with the design. This passage of the Apocalypse alludes to the Church going into the wilderness which I found appropriate inline with what was transpiring as a result of the Vatican II council.
