Kinda skeptic, at first








"Our Lord and our Lady, please forgive me for being cynical to the stories of Emma."
I was kinda skeptical the first time I heard of her. But, my group of friends in Manila talked so much of her that I caught myself listening intently. More so, when we went to Mt. Of Salvation in Caleruega, Batulao, Batangas last August 11, 2009. Been in the area in 2006,in fact my friend told me to go there but I didn't.

Anyway, who is Emma de Guzman? She's a simple woman and who hardly know much about the faith. With the demands of her family needs, she went to Singapore and Canada for work. It's in Canada that she became a visionary, but has already an inkling while in Singapore. Our Lady appeared and taught her how to pray the three mysteries, also taught her the catechism. She also saw St. John, she said he's very young and handsome (TRUE! my idol, my saint!). Then, in Canada, together with Sol Gaviola, they founded La Pieta International Prayer Group. I hope one day, I'll see her for my healing in both body and soul.

Mt. of Salvation is what our Lady asked Emma to look for in the Philippines, a place for pilgrimage to pray for peace. Our Lady appeared here to affirm that this is the right place. After that, the water sprang up which I took advantage to drink on. Not just drinking, but I almost take a bath. Well, the water tastes so well that my companions also did.

See in the pictures, there's the stone saying that our Lady appeared together with Pope John Paul II and Blessed Faustina last April 9, 2005. It means saints are alive and at their prime life. How, I wish to see Pope John Paul II also. Hopefully, I see them in heaven. So, help me God. Amen.

I will stop here first, I still have to watch the June Keithly Report about Emma. More, next time. Thanks
