November 09, 2015 Dear Stjepan, Our Lady of Good Success appeared to Mother Mariana of Jesus, a nun of the Conceptionist Order in Quito, Ecuador during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Her prophecies correspond with the sad state of affairs the world is in today. However, she gives us the assurance that, “when [evil] seems triumphant and when authority abuses its power, committing all manner of injustice and oppressing the weak, their ruin shall be near. They will fall and crash to the ground.” I trust you will find her words very meaningful and will find hope, assurances and consolation in this article:    • Prophecies of Our Lady of Good Success About Our Times Until next time, I remain Sincerely yours, John Horvat Tradition Family Property  www.tfp.org  P.S. - If you are happy with the work of the American TFP, please consider giving a small tax deductible gift today so we can expand our spiritual crusades.
