  • (13:30) What was the purpose of Our Lady’s Apparition and Instructions?
  • (17:19) Leslie – The book he mentioned, Red Banners…written by Warren Carol. Daughter was in his classes at Christendom in the 90’s. Bought all his books. That book was really different than what people would imagine. Talked about world events, prayers of Pope, and what led up to Fatima. Interesting angle.
