The only centuries-old source available on the topic Volume 1 by Fr. Pereira THE ADMIRABLE LIFE OF MOTHER MARIANA - Volume 1 Now you can know everything about Our Lady of Good Success from the 1790 original manuscript by Fr. Manuel Sousa Pereira. The story and prophecies of Our Lady of Good Success are inseparable from the person of Mother Mariana de Jesus Torres (1563-1635), a Conceptionist religious in Quito, Ecuador. Our Lady asked her to become an expiatory victim for the impurity, heresies, and blasphemies that would be unleashed on the Church in the 20th century. She agreed, thus linking herself to our times in a special way. Her extraordinary life and the revelations she received were written in 1790 by Fr. Pereira, a Franciscan priest she appeared to 150 years after her death. This is Volume I of his work, presented for the first time in English. The devotion to Our Lady of Good Success has been approved by the Bishops of Quito since 1611. Translated by Marian T. Horvat, Ph.D.     256 pp. (A-16)      $16      MORE on this book    With the prophecies pertinent to our days from the original 1790 manuscript Volume 2 by Fr. Pereira THE ADMIRABLE LIFE OF MOTHER MARIANA - Volume 2 In Volume 2, Fr. Manuel Sousa Pereira recounts many more apparitions and favors from Our Lady of Good Success to Mother Mariana de Jesus Torres during the years 1610-1635. The prophecies specific to our times describe an enormous apostasy in the Church, the general corruption of the clergy and Prelates, heresies, the abandonment of the rules in convents and monasteries, and the culpability of high ecclesiastical authorities. Our Lady predicted that at the moment when the abuse of those authorities would reach an apex and the situation would seem lost, she would intervene and restore the Catholic Church to her proper splendor. Volume 2 also includes how the statue was made and miraculously completed; the story of Fr. Pereira's conversion; Mother Mariana's last testament, her death and the first miracles; and much, much more. Translated by Marian T. Horvat, Ph.D.     360 pp. (A-18)      $20      MORE on this book    Reprint of the 1914 classic biography by Mrs. Maxwell Scott GABRIEL GARCIA MORENO The life story of the “truly Catholic president” of Ecuador who Our Lady of Good Success foretold would live in the 19th century and consecrate the country to the Sacred Heart. His intrasigent Catholic stance made him loved by the people and hated by the enemies of the Church. In 1875, he was murdered outside the Cathedral in Quito, his last words being, "I die, but God does not die!" Pius XII said he died "the death of a martyr ... a victim for his Faith and Catholic charity." This easy reading and inspiring biography of the Catholic statesman Garcia Moreno offers a role model for the present day Catholic layman. Nine photos and canonization prayer added.     183 pp. (A-16)      $10   BOOK ONE:   Read this remarkable story of Our Lady's many appearances. Pray the efficacious Novena.

Holycard with a Prayer to the Christ Child Crucified on the back Click here to enlarge HOLYCARD OF THE CHRIST CHILD CRUCIFIED In 1628 Our Lady of Good Success, carrying the Christ Child, appeared to Mother Mariana de Jesus Torres and said: “Lift your eyes now and look at Pichincha Mountain, where you will see this Divine Infant Whom I carry in my arms crucified. I deliver Him to the Cross so that He might always give good successes to this country and the world.” The Christ Child approached the Cross on the mountain, placed the crown of thorns on His Head, and then extended His arms on the Cross and spoke these words:   “I can do no more to show my love for you. Ungrateful souls repay the great love and attentions of My Heart with contempt, sacrileges and blasphemies." Our Lady of Good Success asked that pictures be made of this moving scene, for they would have the grace of winning hearts to the love of God. The statue is in the Church of the Immaculate Conception convent in Quito, Ecuador.
