Our lady of all Nations
On the 25th of march 1945, the day of Mary's message, the Holy Virgin appeared to a simple woman, named Ida Peerdeman, who lived in Amsterdam.(Holland) This was the beginning of a serial of 60 apparitions. The apparitions took place between 1945 and 1959. They are known by the name: "the messages of Our Lady of all Nations".
At first the messages and visions where often not comprehended. Later on, it became clear.......Our Lady said: "In the future it will all come true".
The messages 1945 -1950
With a lot of words, Our Lady gives her opinion about the church and the world. She also showed things that will happens in the future. Here are some fragments of the first messages received by Ida Peerdeman:
I see the Vatican surounded by all the churches. A black Pigeon flies above it, "This is an ancient spirit that has to leave", suddenly the colour of the pigeon is turning white. This is the new spirit. The pigeon is surrounded by a light that shines in all directions.
The world is staggering, it seems that the Apocalyps is near! He will come to rule the world. We must obey him.
The Holy Virgin with a Rosery in her hand asks: "Pray for the World", then she showed a globe and the Holy Virgin puts her foot on it and says: " I'll put my foot on the world. I will help but people must listen!".
The Holy Virgin warns mankind for struggle inside the church and in the world. Within a very short time some serious events will take place. It will be all about justice and preceded by chaos, disorder, doubt and despair.
Dark clouds will contract above the Vatican. It will be a hard struggle to clear the sky and solve the problems. All Christians must unite. All this will be involved by pain, sorrow and misery. Gather before the struggle begins.
People from the middle-east(living in Jerusalem) keep their hands before their eyes. Waling about their city is heared. But as long as my words will not be in their hearts, there will be no peace. I see the following words in writing: "justice, love and righteouness".
My hand hurts and I see America and Europe next to eachother. I see the following words in writing: Economic war, Boycot, Exchange and Disasters.
I see the Balcans, there is war. It will be a hard struggle, the Holy Virgin says. Economic catastrophes will take place all over the world. The United Kingdom totters.
Opinion by the Church
At first the apparitions and messages of the Holy Virgin offered a lot of resistance. Though, almost unnoticed, the prayers, visions and messages have found their way to people all over the world. The prayer has been translated into 50 languages together with the image of Our Lady, millions of specimen have been distributed all over the world.
In may 1966, a new move forward was made. The Bishop of Haarlem(Mgr Bomers) declared there was no objection against the worship of Our Lady of all Nations. He also declared that anyone is free to have his own opinion about the messages.
On the 17th of june 1996, Ida Peerdeman died at the age of 90 years. She was burried at the Cemetery of St.Barbara in Amsterdam.
Amsterdam and the church of Our Lady of all Nations
The Holy Virgin very often speaks about the church as a common property. Amsterdam must become the center of a global movement which must unite all people in faith, because of this a church has been build in Amsterdam.
The Chapel is situated at the Diepenbrockstreet 3 in Amsterdam.
