ALL IMPORTANT FACTS! ABOUT MARY'S WAY APOSTOLATE

Mary’s Way Worldwide Apostolate, Inc. is a dynamic Worldwide Apostolate devoted to Jesus through His Most Holy Mother Mary.  An "Apostolate" is a group of people working together to promote a Doctrine of the Catholic Church which is "Our Lady Mediatrix of All Graces"!  Mary’s Way has been operating for 19 years.  Its Founder and Director is Francis Slinsky.  Please contact us at www.marysway.net    or by phone 1-732-892-7400     or by mail at: Mary’s Way Worldwide Apostolate, 990 Cedar Bridge Avenue, Suite B7-150, Brick, New Jersey 08723 USA.

Mary’s Way to Jesus Apostolate began in Mary’s month in May 1996, when Marie Tully, a very devout woman, received three very clear inner locutions from Jesus during “Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament” IN SAINT JOHN THE BAPTIST CATHOLIC CHURCH in New York City.  Jesus asked Marie to “go to Medjugorje to go see my Mother.”  Marie quickly went to Medjugorje and to her surprise, she arrived in Medjugorje ONTHE FEAST DAY OF SAINT JOHN THE BAPTIST, June 24, 1996, which was also "The 15th Anniversary of the ongoing Apparitions in Medjugorje"

Marie met with Vicka the highly spirited Visionary of Mary that day!  That evening, during an apparition of The Blessed Virgin Mary in Medjugorje, Vicka held up Rosary Beads and Brown Scapulars including those of Marie’s friend in the United States, Francis Slinsky.  The Blessed Virgin Mary blessed Francis' Rosary and Brown Scapular in the evening of "The Feast Day of Saint John the Baptist" in Medjugorje!  

During the night, of "The Feast Day of Saint John the Baptist", Saint Louis de Montfort, the most Marian of all saints, appeared to Francis in a dream in the United States.  In the dream, Saint Louis was wearing his very distinct 17th. Century priest habit.  Saint Louis de Montfort came down the aisle from the altar after Mass in a church named in honor of Saint Dominic to whom our Lady told: "One day through the Rosary and the Scapular she would save the world".  In the dream, Saint Louis accurately foretold the creation and coming of the unique Sacred Icon “Our Lady Mediatrix of All Graces” to Francis who would surprisingly, soon become this Sacred Icon’s caretaker. 

Four weeks later on a Saturday dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary , July 26th, ONTHE FEAST DAY OF SAINT ANN AND SAINT JOACHIM, the Blessed Mother’s Mother and Father, Francis (who had been looking through dozens of picture books of Saints for a month to find out who the saint was that appeared in the dream) conclusively confirmed through pictorial comparisons that it was indeed Saint Louis de Montfort in the dream, with the same face, the same facial features, and the same stature, wearing the same very distinct 17th Century priestly habit! 

Exactly 73 days later (there are 73 Books in the Bible), on October 7th, ON "THE FEAST DAY OF OUR LADY OF THE ROSARY" the last two parts, of the 3-Part Purpose of "Our Lady Mediatrix of All Graces" Sacred Icon,  was foretold in a profound second dream to Francis which is: WHOEVER VENERATES MARY THROUGH HER MOST POWERFUL ROLE AS "MEDIATRIX OF ALL GRACES"WILL RECEIVE  (1.)VAST OUTPOURINGS OF ALL OF GOD'S GRACES(2.) PROTECTION AGAINST ALL EVIL(3.) AND COMPLETE LASTING PEACE

In retrospect, many spiritually significant events and dates are linked to the creation of “Our Lady Mediatrix of All Graces” Miraculous Icon.  For example, ON THE FEAST DAY OF THE MOTHERHOOD OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY, Mary’s Way Apostolate was established. Two days later, on October 13th, 1996, ONTHE ANNIVERSARY OF THE GREAT MIRACLE OF THE SUN IN FATIMA, Josyp Terelya from the Ukraine, one of the world’s finest Icon painters (writers), mystic, and world renowned Marian Visionary offered to paint the Icon WITH MARY'S TRUE HEAVENLY FACEmost surprisingly, DURING A SAINT LOUIS DE MONTFORT RELIGIOUS CONFERENCE! 

On November 13 and on December 13, through inspiration, vitally important additions were made to the Icon.  THE ICON WAS COMPLETED ONCHRISTMAS DAY 1996 – AS MARY'S GIFT TO THE ENTIRE WORLDGIVEN TO EVERYONE ON THE 2000th BIRTHDAY OF JESUS!  (There is a 4 year error in our calendars. It occurred when our present “Gregorian Calendar” was revised in the year 1582 from “The Julian Calendar”.) 

VITALLY IMPORTANT FACTS AND DATES ABOUT "THE MIRACULOUS ICON"  "OUR LADY MEDIATRIX OF ALL GRACES

5)  All of the 13 features in "Mary's beautiful Heavenly Face: on Our Lady Mediatrix of All Graces® Icon at Mary's Way Apostolate are identical to, and are fully corrobrated by, the independently written descriptions that were given many years earlier by all six Medjugorje Visionaries!  They each independently, twice gave their written descriptions to their spiritual director who wrote about them in his writings and about "Mary's Heavenly Face", including the most important feature, that "MARY HAS A LIGHT COLOR BROW"! 

6)  These six Visionaries had each seen "Mary's Heavenly Face" hundreds of times for many years!  MARY'S "LIGHT COLOR BROW" IS: THE DOVE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT INDELIBLY AGLOW ON MARY'S BROW IN HEAVEN, and also subtly shown on The Miraculous Icon - Our Lady Mediatrix of All Graces!   This further, definitively shows that the Sacred Miraculous Icon has the alleged "true, real Heavenly Face of Mary". 

7)  The Icon was very specially painted by Josyp Terelya, world renowned mystic and Marian visionary, chosen by Our Lady – the only person who could paint this Icon! 

8)  So many alleged Favors, Graces and Blessings, Healings and over 220 "Miracles" have been attributed to Mary, including a private audience with Pope John Paul II and Francis Slinsky, the Founder and Director of Mary's Way Apostolate through the veneration of this Icon, that it is now known as The Miraculous Icon®.  See TESTIMONIALS in our website for complete details.

The religious conference was entitled “True Devotion to Mary”, "The Twin Pillars of Victory” from the well-known Prophetic Dream of Saint John Bosco.  The two pillars to which The Catholic Church is anchored to in times of trouble are: The Eucharist, and Our Lady!

14)  Through Inspiration, on November 13, 1996 the Icon has to be completely repainted to Iconically paint "The Wedding Feast of Cana" and "The Crucifixion" in the upper left corner and the upper right corner of the Icon and the "Ichthus" on the bottom middle of the Icon.

22)  The burning candle wick on the blessed votive candle split apart, and the top half of the burning, split candle wick then slowly TURNED INTO THE SHAPE OF A PERFECT CRUCIFIX

24) Also "miraculously", when the candle burned out, the remains of the burnt, blackened candle wick – TURNED WHITE, AND THEN TURNED INTO THE OUTLINE OF A PERFECTICHTHYS” (a fish symbolizing all Christians – “a sign” that this is the Icon for all Christians throughout the world) at the bottom of the 8 inch glass container which held the candle – and is still there!  THE EXACT SAME WHITE-OUTLINED "ICHTHYS" IS PAINTED ON THE MIRACULOUS ICON®, ALSO AT THE BOTTOMAfter burning hundreds of candles this has never happened again!
