Sister Palma Maria Addolorata Matarelli d’Oria 1863 on The 3 Days of Darkness
An
Italian born visionary widowed at the age of 28 and who later received the
stigmata in her hands, feet and side on May 3rd 1865. Like the German mystic Ven. Catherine
Emmerich she lived on the Blessed Eucharist alone for the last 10 years of her
life. She made several prophecies about Italy’s domestic affairs, the rise of
Anti-Catholic Republican governments in Europe and the coming chastisement.
“There
will be an attempt by the sectaries to establish a republican government in
France, Spain and Italy; a civil war will, in consequence, break out in those
countries, accompanied by other dreadful punishments, as pestilence and famine,
the massacre of priests, and also of some dignitaries of the Church. Rome shall
have to endure severe trials from the malice of wicked men. But at the critical
moment, when the rebellious Republicans shall attempt to take possession of the
Holy City, they shall be suddenly arrested at the gates and forced to fly away
in terror... crushed under thee deadly blows of the exterminating angel, who in
behalf of the Israelites destroyed 185,000 men of Sennacherib’s army…” 1
“There
shall be three days of darkness, during which the atmosphere will be infected
by innumerable devils, who shall cause the death of large multitudes of
unbelievers and wicked men. Not one demon shall be left in hell. They shall
come out to excite the wicked murderers or to dishearten the just. This will be
frightful. Frightful! But a grand cross shall appear and the triumphs of
the church will make people quickly forget all evils…” 2
TradCatKnight Exclusive: "The Sign of the Son of Man"
“Blessed
candles alone shall be able to give light and preserve the faithful Catholics
from this impending scourge. Supernatural prodigies shall appear in the
heavens. There is to be a short but furious war, during which the enemies of
religion and of mankind shall be universally destroyed. A general purification
of the world, and the universal triumph of the Church are to follow….” 3
