  • Maria Valtorta Was Born in Caserta, Italy on March 14, 1897
    In Response to Various Questions Regarding “The Poem of the Man-God" Published on April 15, 2006 by Dr. Mark Miravalle, Professor of theology and Mariology at Franciscan University of Steubenville. [Note: The Poem of the Man God has since been published under the title The Gospel as Revealed to Me, but they are the same book.] Maria Valtorta was born in Caserta, Italy on March 14, 1897. Deeply pious, Maria was strongly attracted to God from early childhood, but it was as a young woman that she started reporting mystical experiences. In 1920 she was randomly attacked by a young man who hit her in the back with an iron bar. Badly injured, she was bedridden for three months and her health began its gradual decline. In the years to follow she made a personal offering of her sufferings to the two Divine attributes of Love and Justice, and by April, 1934, she was permanently confined to her bed. It was in 1943 that Valtorta began to write down in her notebooks the “dictations,” the mystical visions and messages she reported receiving from Jesus and Mary, and the years between 1943 and 1947 were the period of her greatest output. She wrote almost 15000 pages of dictation, a little less than two-thirds of which comprised The Poem of the Man-God, a substantial work on the life of Jesus Christ beginning from the birth of Our Lady and ending at her Assumption. Maria Valtorta died on October 12, 1961. In 1973 her remains were moved to Florence and entombed in the Capitular Chapel in the Grand Cloister of the Basilica of the Most Holy Annunciation in Florence.

  • Refutation of Horvat's Anti-Valtorta Article Refutes His Main Out- Of-Context Arguments
    How the Orthodoxy of Maria Valtorta’s Work Shines Even More Brightly and Exposing the Methodological and Theological Errors of Marian Horvat: A Complete Refutation of Horvat’s Flawed Anti-Valtorta Article Theological Errors and Incompetency, Methodological Flaws, Distortions and Misrepresentations, Lack of Objectivity, and Ignorance on the Subject She is Writing About: How Horvat’s Anti-Valtorta Article Lacks Substance and Credibility and Stands Completely Refuted By Stephen Austin, January 2016 (Updated May 2017) Tradition in Action (www.TraditioninAction.org) is a traditional Catholic website which is associated with a group that broke away from the SSPX. They have posted several anti-Valtorta articles on their website, one of which is an anti-Valtorta article by Marian Horvat. The most widely-read anti-Valtorta articles in English-speaking countries are those published on EWTN or by those who work for them. I don’t feel the need to discuss concerns about this particular organization here because others have already done thorough investigation and studies of EWTN (such as Christopher Ferrara’s book EWTN: A Network Gone Wrong) and the refutations their anti-Valtorta articles speak for themselves and are readily available here: An Analysis and Refutation of All the Top Anti-Valtorta Articles. However, I do feel the need to address traditioninaction.com because, since they are a traditional Catholic media outlet, they are considered by some traditional and conservative Catholics to ordinarily be more trustworthy than many organizations of the mainstream Catholic media. On some topics and in certain cases, this is true. Unfortunately, on this particular topic, they have proven not to be trustworthy or reliable as my refutations of their anti-Valtorta articles and this article demonstrate.

  • Kolbe Center Seminar Recommendations the Culture and Mind-Set of the So Called Modern Times Is Mainly Characterized by a Turning
    Kolbe Center Seminar Recommendations The culture and mind-set of the so called modern times is mainly characterized by a turning away from God. God is denied to be God the Creator and instead of Him the creature and ultimately man is declared to be god and creator. This kind of atheism or anti-theism found its most widespread and seductive expression in the so-called evolution theory of Charles Darwin. It is time to show to the world the scientific inconsistency of such a theory and to unmask the myth of evolutionism. The unmasking of the atheistic and even of the theistic evolution myth, will set free a lot of people from the intellectual slavery of evolutionism. The myth of the so- called evolution brought the man of modern times to a life-style independent from his Creator with all the horrible cultural, social, moral and spiritual consequences. May the work of the Kolbe Center be wide spread and help to free the people of our days from the greatest myth of modern times and help them at the same time to direct their intellectual and spiritual glance to God their Creator. In admiring the power and beauty of His work of creation, may man glorify Him through a life according to His wise will. When man lives according to the will of His Creator, he achieves the very meaning and end of creation, as Saint Irenaeus said: “The glory of God is the living man and the life of a man is the vision of God” (Adversus haereses IV, 20, 7).

    Lists of Bishops, Doctors of Theology/Divinity/Canon Law, Saints/Blesseds/Venerables/Servants of God, University Professors, and Noteworthy Lay Faithful Who Have Approved and Endorsed Valtorta's Work The information below has been taken from A Summa and Encyclopedia to Maria Valtorta’s Extraordinary Work by Stephen Austin. To download this free e-book, click here. In this document, I present to you lists of various groups of clerics, saints, and noteworthy lay faithful who have approved, endorsed, or praised The Gospel as Revealed to Me / The Poem of the Man-God, and I organize them according to different criteria. As a result of the findings of my research, I can provide you with the following facts: At Least 28 Bishops Have Approved, Endorsed, or Praised the Poem (Bishops Representing 11 Different Countries) Those who have approved/endorsed/praised the Poem of the Man-God include: 24 Extremely Learned Clerics or Pope Pius XII Doctors of Theology/Divinity/Canon Law 7 Members or Consultants of the Holy 4 Cardinals Office/Congregation for the Causes of Saints 14 Archbishops 7 Saints/Blesseds/Venerables/Servants of God 10 Regular Bishops 28 University Professors In addition to the bishops and theologians listed above, two famous television show hosts/media personalities have publicly endorsed Maria Valtorta's work.

  • Father Louis Campbell; and Saint Jude Shrine in Stafford Texas
    At the website (https://sites.google.com/view/st-jude-shrine/about-us) for Saint Jude Shrine in Stafford, Texas I found the following information: “Father Louis Campbell was ordained a priest for the Augustinian Order in 1961 in the old rite of Holy Orders. Soon afterwards, he was sent to New York, where he received priestly jurisdiction from Francis Joseph Cardinal Spellman, who was consecrated bishop in 1932 with a papal mandate from Pope Pius XI and was later appointed Archbishop of New York in 1939 by Pope Pius XII. Father Campbell was sent to Wisconsin, where he was given priestly jurisdiction from Archbishop William Edward Cousins, who was consecrated bishop in 1948 with a papal mandate from Pope Pius XII. Father Campbell was then transferred to Ottawa, where he received priestly faculties from Archbishop Marie-Joseph Lemieux, who was consecrated bishop in 1936 with a papal mandate from Pope Pius XI and was appointed Archbishop of Ottawa in 1953 by Pope Pius XII. In 2001, Fr. Campbell requested and received a renewal of his priestly faculties from one of the last functioning Pius XII-era Catholic Bishops in North America, Archbishop Isadore Borecky, who was appointed bishop in 1948 by Pope Pius XII. As Archbishop of the Ukrainian Catholic Eparchy of Toronto, Borecky was responsible for a huge area over North America that overlapped multiple Roman-rite dioceses and reached down into Texas. As the Roman-rite bishops one by one all abandoned legitimate Catholic worship, Borecky became by default perhaps the last Catholic bishop with authority over North America, and was the only bishop in Canada that Father Campbell could approach for a renewal of his faculties.
