The following testimony is from Mary Zore
The message to which she refers in it is that of May 6, 1991

I have been blessed to be at three of Vassula’a talks during tours here in the U. S. The first time I went to hear her talk, I had been doing a novena to St. Theresa the little Flower for direction in my spiritual life. I had already heard about Vassula and had been reading her books. A friend and I heard that she was speaking at a church in western Massachusetts and decided it was close enough we could drive out to hear her speak. On the way there, I asked my friend if she knew the name of the Church where she was speaking, she didn’t know. When we arrived we discovered that the church was named for St. Theresa the Little Flower (I pray to her often under the title St. Theresa of the Holy Face ofJesus). I felt this was a confirmation for me, as it was right after my novena.

I have never been blessed with seeing Jesus Face on Vassula in the talks. But several friends attending a conference in NY saw Jesus Face while she was speaking.

On one other occasion I was going through a difficult time, and went into a church to pray in front of the tabernacle. I prayed using the words ‘Jesus, I feel like my cross in crushing me…” , and I say that knowing the crosses I have are very small compared to many others. Later that day I went home and opened a “True Life in God Book” in a random fashion, and my eyes fell on these words “and you , who came to me today, saying your cross was crushing you…” I knew it was Jesus speaking directly to me, and felt much consoled. I wish I could find this message again but haven’t been able to find it on the search. It was a private message within the messages. If you can help me find it I would be much obliged. I felt that the exact wording of my prayer and the words in the book could not be coincidence. I felt the message gave me hope of help in my journey and within a year I was doing some spiritual direction with a priest who helped me in some different areas of spiritual growth.

I don’t know if this counts as testimony. I can say that as I read the books, often or at times my own spiritual journey has been synchonized with the messages, and I have felt the Lord acting in my soul in a similiar fashion as expressed in the books. I feel the messages have a majesty and authority about them that can only come from God, Himself.
