Professed as a religious nun in 1933, Sister Mildred Mary Neuzil engaged in many humble practices before she began to receive the revelations of Our Lady of America.
Her mystical experiences began in 1938 when she began to experience interior locutions, mystical flights and other phenomena. It wasn't until 1948 that these experiences were brought to the attention of her confessor.
The Message of Our Lady of America
Our Lady of America gave messages to Sister Mildred from 1954 to 1981, but unlike other apparitions, the messages cover many subjects: The Indwelling Trinity, The Sacred Humanity, The Holy Family, Our Lady, St. Joseph, The Angels and Torchbearers of the Queen.
Although she covered many subjects in her apparitions and interior locutions, the actual revelations are contained in a very small diary of only 48 pages containing messages much like this: "Beloved daughter, there is so much untruth in the truth that is saught. Truth comes from Him who has been sent by my Son, the Spirit who is Truth. Pray continuously to be guided by this Spirit who is the true enlightenment." Our Lady of America, By Sister Mildred Mary Neuzil
The Blessed Virgin Mary also gave Sister Mildred two prayers; a prayer to the Immaculate Conception and to the Indwelling Most Holy Trinity.
The Manifestations of Our Lady of America
Paintings of Our Lady of America were done by Donna Mae Halsted, a humble woman in Dove Creek, Colorado, USA, who also struck the large statue which was eventually brought to the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C.
Medals have been struck which bear the image of Our Lady of America on one side and a Coat of Arms of the Christian Family on the other. It states "By your Holy and Immaculate Conception, O Mary, deliver us from evil.”
Sister Mildred Mary Neuzil resided in Fostoria, Ohio, USA, where a center has been established to honor her and the apparitions which occurred to her during her life.
Other manifestations of the Blessed Virgin Mary occurred in the apparitions of Our Lady of Akita, Our Lady of Banneux, and Our Lady of Garabandal.
