About The Mystics On M & R
Angela
Our Lady allegedly began appearing to a group of seers in Zaro di Ischia (an island near Naples in Italy) in 1994. The two current visionaries, Simona Patalano and Angela Fabiani, receive messages on the 8th and 26th of each month, and their spiritual director, Don Ciro Vespoli, was himself a seer before becoming a priest. In 2014, diocesan authorities established an official commission tasked, among other things, with collecting testimonies of healings and other fruits associated with the apparitions. In fact, their messages gained national press coverage in 1995 when they received a precognitive vision of the destruction of the Twin Towers, six years before the tragedy occurred.
Anne – a lay apostle
In 2003, soon after accepting Our Lady’s request that she work for Christ, Anne became a victim soul, and began experiencing mystifying illnesses as well as the gift of inner locutions. Despite exhaustion and much suffering, Anne established The Apostolate of the
Returning King — a far-reaching ‘rescue mission’ for souls centered on Our Lord’s messages.
Following a two-year commission to investigate their authenticity, Anne’s writings and messages now carry an official Church Imprimatur from the local ecclesiastical authority and, by Sacred Decree, the Apostolate received canonical recognition as a Private Association of the Faithful with Juridical Personality. Anne is a wife, a mother of six and a Third Order Franciscan.
Gisella Cardia
Gisella Cardia is a visionary who bares the stigmata. Our Lady began appearing to her in 2016 after she visited Medjugorje and a statue of the Gospa and other images began weeping blood. Many have witnessed the Miracle of the Sun during the apparitions, much like at Fatima, and indeed, one of her books of messages was recently granted a nihil obstat for its Polish translation. Her Bishop commissioned an exorcist priest to be her spiritual director, and her messages are reviewed by two priests prior to publication. Her non-profit organisation is in the process of raising funds for the establishment of a home for disadvantaged children that would provide a safe and serene atmosphere along with the warmth and affection of a large family in the Christian spirit. Donations can be made on her website at lareginadelrosario.org
Jennifer
Jennifer is an American mother and housewife with a spiritual director. At the Lord’s instruction, she sent her messages to Pope John Paul II through the Holy Pontiff’s close friend, Msgr Pawel Ptasznik, who later told her to “spread the messages to the world any way you can.”
Luz de Maria
A Third Order Augustinian, Luz is an Argentinian mother of eight children who
bears the stigmata. She began receiving Heavenly visitations from her guardian angel and Our Lady as a little girl in her native Costa Rica. Along with her prayer cenacles, Luz publishes Heaven’s messages under the guidance of her long-time confessor, two other priests and a nun, and her book of messages was granted the Imprimatur of the Church in 2017.
Marco Ferrari
Marco Ferrari is a mystic and stigmatist who has had many meetings with Pope John Paul II, Pope Benedict XVI and Pope Francis. Marco presides over the Oasis Mamma dell’ Amore ONLUS– that is, Oasis Mother of Love – an organisation that aims to meet the health and living challenges of underprivileged children and families in Italy and other European countries.
Marija Pavlovic Lunetti
Marija Pavlovic Lunetti is one of the five Medjugorje seers to whom Our Lady allegedly appears since 1981. Married with four children, Marija lives in Italy and visits Medjugorje several times a year. She receives daily messages, and a public message on the 25 th of every month. Our Lady has entrusted her with nine of the 10 secrets and, under the guidance of her spiritual advisor, the mission to pray for the souls in Purgatory as well as consecrated men and women.
Martin Gavenda
Martin Gavenda, along with his friends, began receiving messages in 1994 after experiencing the Miracle of the Sun in his village of Dechtice, Slovakia. On August 15, 1995, the female figure he saw in the white light identified herself as Mary, Queen of Help, and Her messages warn of Satan’s tricks, and the remedies of the Church, namely, the sacraments, the Rosary, fasting, and reparation for the offenses committed against the Hearts of Jesus and Mary Who are our Refuge in these times. Martin has a spiritual director, though no pronouncement has yet been made as to the authenticity of the apparitions.
Mirjana Dragicevic-Soldo
Mirjana is one of the five children to whom Our Lady appeared in Medjugorje. She had daily apparitions from June 24th, 1981 to December 25th, 1982. During the last daily apparition, Our Lady gave her the 10th “secret”, and told her that She would appear to her once a year, on the 18th of March, and it has been this way throughout the years.
Pedro Regis
Since 1987, Pedro Regis has received over 4,900 alleged messages from Our Lady
of Anguera in Brazil. Much ink and time have been spilt over these messages by various
specialist writers, journalists and researchers, and a commission has been established to evaluate them. Archbishop Zanoni of Feira de Santana, the diocese in which Anguera is located, is broadly supportive of Pedro, and has in fact appeared with him publicly to bless the pilgrims.
Simona
The Virgin Mary allegedly began appearing to a group of seers in Zaro di Ischia (an
island near Naples in Italy) in 1994. The two current visionaries, Simona Patalano and Angela Fabiani, receive messages on the 8th and 26th of each month, and their spiritual director, Don Ciro Vespoli, was himself a seer before becoming a priest. In 2014, diocesan authorities established an official commission tasked, among other things, with collecting testimonies of healings and other fruits associated with the apparitions. Simona and Angela’s messages gained national press coverage in 1995 when they received a precognitive vision of the destruction of the Twin Towers, six years before the tragedy occurred.
Valeria Copponi
Valeria allegedly began receiving locutions from Heaven in Lourdes, and they
continue to this day at her weekly prayer cenacle in Rome, Italy. Fr Gabriele Amorth, the renowned exorcist from Rome, was the one who encouraged her to make these messages known.
Fr. Michel Rodrigue

Ivanka has already received all ten secrets, and now receives messages only once a year.
