+ RDND: NATURAL DISASTERS SERIES - FIRE the Peshtigo (WI) Fire was the largests fire disaster in our country. Did Our Lady warn us 12 years earlier to the day? FIRE + AIR + EARTH + WATER + AN ALMOST FORGOTTEN FIRE WAS IT REALLY MRS O'LEARY'S COW? We all remember reading about Mrs. O'Leary's cow and the great fire of Chicago in 1871 but there was another fire about 220 miles to the north that took thousands of lives on the same day, at the same hour, on October 8 1871. + CONTROLLED CAMPFIRE PESHTIGO WISCONSIN in 2011
+ FOR MORE INFORMATION Read below the events that took this fire to such tragic heights over such a large area and how praying the rosary helped open the gate to two miracles of hope for today. So many remarkable signs that lead us to understand more about the visitation of 'Our Lady of Good Help, Queen of Heaven' in Champion Wisconsin 12 years before the fire. See history links at bottom of page. MORE INFO see the beautiful

*THE LINE of FIRE II* |
Antique Ave beads (late 1800s, time of fire) rosary inspired by the fence of protection, where the fire line mysteriously stopped protecting all inside the fence
AVE BEADS: These
rare, old antique faceted beads have been dated by our vender as being
from the late 19c, about the time of the apparition. They are from
our private collection, just waiting for that perfect rosary and we believe
this is the perfect place. Note under some light, there is a faint, green
cast to the creamy white beads. Green symbolizes growth which is a beautiful
reminder of how the line of fire stopped at the fence. PATER BEADS:
Antiqued filigree caps give a richness to the golden faceted Swarovski
Crystal. Again, the choice of color symbolizes Our Lady's golden sash on
a white garment with a hint of the glowing fiery, orange sky that was to
come 12 years later.

Mary identified herself as, "I am the Lady of the Rosary", and continued, " I have come to warn the faithful to amend their lives and to ask pardon for their sins. They must not offend our Lord any more, for he is already to grievously offended by the sins of men. People must say the rosary. Let them continue saying it every day." + FOR MORE INFORMATION Read below the events that took this fire to such tragic heights over such a large area and how praying the rosary helped open the gate to two miracles of hope for today. So many remarkable signs that lead us to understand more about the visitation of 'Our Lady of Good Help, Queen of Heaven' in Champion Wisconsin 12 years before the fire. See history links at bottom of page. + OUR LADY OF THE IMMACULATE COMCEPTION
+ CONVERSION OF SINNERS HOW IS FR MARQUETTE INVOLVED IN 1673? On finding the Mis-sipi, June 17 1673, Father Marquette dedicated it to Our Lady and named it the 'River of the Immaculate Conception'. Later in the fall, he traveled north along the coast of the Door Peninsula (named for 'Porte des Mortes' (Deaths Door) and portaged over at Sturgeon (Bay) a shorter route to Lake Michigan. Like a precursor, Father Marquette, who loved our Lady Immaculate, dedicated the area at the lower end of the Door Peninsula now called Champion WI. (Robinsonville) at the base of Green Bay, where 186 years later our Lady would appear to Sister Adele Brise in 1859. The apparition would become the first approved apparition of the US by the Vatican (Dec. 8, 2010, the feast day of Our Lady) + ISAIAH 56:1-2
NEW STATE OF WISCONSIN 1848 Mary silently appeared to a very frightened Sister Brise on October 8, 1859 - exactly 12 years to the day before the tragic Peshtigo (WI) Fire - October 8 1871 - which also burned down the village of Champion Wisconsin, then called Robinsonville. (And of course the same day as the Great Chicago Fire). + Mary wore a white garment with a golden yellow band around her waist. She introduced herself as "Our Lady of Good Help, Queen of Heaven" She warned we must pray for the conversion of sinners. 'If they do not convert and do penance, My son will be obliged to punish them' (This would be similar to the message given at Lourdes). + THE FIRST APPROVED MARIAN APPARITION IN THE US Bishop Ricken of the Diocese of Green Bay WI Issues a Formal Decree finding them 'worthy of belief'. Marian Apparitions at the Shrine of Our Lady of Good Help become the first and only in the U.S. to be approved by the Church! + The First Approved Marian Apparition of the U.S. was confirmed this past Dec 8, 2010 by Bishop David Ricken backed by the Vatican. Our Lady of Good Help shrine is in Champion Wisconsin in the diocese of Green Bay, right down the road from where we make rosaries. (And with a smile, we might add, the same year the Packers won the Title) + FOR MORE ON THE VISITATION For actual eyewitness accounts of the fire, and more on the Visitation of Our Lady, please scroll to the bottom of this page for links. For an excellent overview read Father Pernin's eye witness of the Peshtigo fire on line. (from the Wisconsin Magazine of History 1971.) +
PRAY YOUR ROSARY FOR ALL FIRE VICTIMS We dedicate these rosaries to fire victims, as a part of our series on environmental / weather related tragedies. We hope to encourage people to remember, not only to pray your rosary for protection today but for those who have suffered in the past, for those who suffered sudden death with no time to convert. And for protection against future events. + Uncontrolled fires bring a horrible loss of life and land, scarring people beyond reach. We see this in war every day. And recently there has been an overwhelming occurrence of forest fires in Texas, California and throughout our nation. A terrible loss of life and land. + TRUSTING IN ALL NATURAL DISASTERS - THE NAME OF JESUS
