Introduction
This booklet contains a wonderful testimony of a young lady from Vienna about her personal testimony of the apparition of the Virgin Mary in Zeitoun Church on the night of April 27, 1968. She recorded her audio testimony first then it was transcribed into this booklet later on. Below is an excerpt of her own words that testify to her profound emotion at this blessed Apparition:
“I couldn’t say a single bad word. I remember it all vividly, and I couldn’t say anything wrong about it. I have far too much responsibility and far too strong a feeling that one isn’t allowed to say anything else. One can only honor the truth. That’s why, whenever I’m asked, which has been very often lately, I say yes. I do it and don’t ask for a penny for it, because I’m naturally happy that the Mother of God has given me the honor of being there, undeservedly, as a witness, and being able to experience these impressions. It was truly indescribable; before her apparition, large clouds of incense had risen.” (Quote from the Book)
