I found the remains of the wallpaper for the guestroom. Now I can patch that spot. Does that count?

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad

I didn't find any plaques, cards, affirmations, or old wallpaper but I did find this experience unique....here goes

About 10 years ago I found this unique pendant laying (lying...omg...don't know which one to use) on the floor. I asked all my kid's friends...didn't belong to anyone. I set it aside.

About 5 years later the pendant showed up again. I can't remember where or how but I do remember finding it and setting it aside again.

Well, about 3 months ago it appeared again...sitting on my dresser. I know I didn't put it there...maybe my cleaning lady found it somewhere but I don't know. All I know is that it was there.

I decided this was a sign of some sort...so I took it to the jewelers, bought a chain, had it made into a necklace, and have been wearing it ever since.

Does anyone recognize what it is? Here I am wearing a pendant that I have no idea what it is but feel it was meant for me to wear....

Bright, Barbara and I think it is a version of the Lady of Fatima........

A beautiful medal..It is Our Lady of Fatima with the three children..

I am sure it shows up for a reason, it is good that you honor Our Lady by wearing it..

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Thank you Johnny, Barbara, and Donna....

Any idea what the back represents...looks like a church with a cross on top ??? ??? ??? ???

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Seems like all the medals I viewed had different churches or shrines on the reverse side. I can't narrow down your medal. It seems quite worn as in years. There are many different designs with the newer medals and pendants. Like Donna said, you honor Our Lady by wearing it.

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

I'm not Catholic so don't know who Our Lady of Fatima is....will you explain?

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

The Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God, appeared 6 times to 3 shepherd children; Lucy, Francisco and Jacinta; between May 13 and October 13, 1917. She came to the little village of Fatima which had remained faithful to the Catholic Church during the recent persecutions by the government.

Our Lady’s Message

She came with a message from God to every man, woman and child of our century. Our Lady of Fatima promised that the whole world would be in peace, and that many souls would go to Heaven if Her requests were listened to and obeyed.

She told us that war is a punishment for sin; that God would punish the world for its sins in our time by means of war, hunger, persecution of the Church and persecution of the Holy Father, the Pope, unless we listened to and obeyed the commands of God.
