Meeting the Downings

I wanted to meet these people who owned all of these businesses, beautiful property and built this lovely chapel. The ole' newspaper reporter came out in me and I was very curious. Jean happened to be at the Chapel one morning and met the Downings she told them of our angel sighting and our story they invited us over that evening to show them the photo. Jean and I proceeded to the Downings home which was below her father's land. A lovely yellow house with a welcoming front porch (photo),not ostentatious at all, a place that was homey. We met these two wonderful people, he had red hair and a stout build with a cheery Irish face. Joan was short and sweet.They pushed aside there papers on their kitchen table and we started chatting while sipping our coffee with real cow's milk from their farm.We showed them the photo of the angel and although awed they were not surprised. They had a night photo of the glorious cross with a figure of Mary on the side of it.

I asked Mr. Downing why he built the chapel he said he owned a business and it wasn't doing well, he had had it with the business world and consecrated his business to Mary. In return he told her he would build a chapel for her in honor of her and leave it open for all people to enjoy. He said without any effort on his part his business started to flourish year after year, as a result he kept his promise to Mary. They both said they have received many blessings from the intervention of the Blessed Mother.
They are enjoying the semiretirement years and all of their adopted, foster and grandchildren they had help raise. Joan asked us to come to a prayer meeting the next day and we went to met them to pray the Rosary and learn about a new series of books from Anne the lay apostle, called Direction for our times. to see the website of the chapel it is https://www.chapel of the holy family.com. The story of Anne the lay apostle is very popular in Ireland and Europe. Anne's website is https://direction for our times. It is a wonderful series. She has written these books with the intention of all of us to share them. Her journey is unusual starting at Medjugore and proceeding from there with messages from Heaven. I am reading them now and will keep you updated.

In addition to the angel we saw a beautiful rainbow which went right down on the top of the Blessed mother's head in the rosary garden.
I was surprised on this vacation , not expecting all of this spiritual insight I had just intended to camp and enjoy nature and family and friends. What a surprise!!
