Pretty cool find. Awesome that they made sure they translated it correctly before publishing their findings.

The 255 mysterious symbols were discovered in 2018 when a tree fell and exposed a carefully carved inscription near the small town of Wawa in Ontario, just 155 miles from the US border in Michigan

Hello friends,
Thank you to all of you who joined me on my Prayer Pilgrimage in May and June. This opportunity greatly impacted my faith and I hope, through my prayers for you and your intentions, has brought you grace and peace in your own life.

I was asked to record my presentation for those who were unable to join us. I encourage you to watch the video and see how this trip played out and what wonderful graces the Lord placed upon me and our group.

Thank you again so much for your prayers! Know that I continue to pray for each and every one of you. Blessings, Nickie Wentworth

St. Francis of Assisi says: “Praise be to Jesus.”

“Always remain childlike, simple and unassuming. I have come today to speak to you about
Purgatory, since today is the day of the indulgence of Portiuncula.”

“Purgatory is different for every soul. The soul may commit the same sin as another and yet his
Purgatory may be completely different according to his propensity to serve self or God. The one
who slips into sin without remorse and does not repent until his deathbed suffers greatly in the
flames of Purgatory. The one who is weak in sin but tries to overcome his faults suffers less.”
“There are many in the world today who love their own opinions above and beyond what is
good and what is evil. They do not recognize Satan’s influence over them. These are the ones
who suffer gravely their separation from Divine Love in Purgatory.”

“Be renewed in this indulgence today so that you will be innocent in the Eyes of God. Try to avoid Purgatory at all costs in an effort to always please God first and foremost."
