Some minutes into Vassula's talk, I saw the Face of Jesus. I recognised the same face as the person on the image of the Shroud of Turin. I am moved again as I remember the experience. I saw the Face of what I described to my mother afterwards as "the deepest face I have ever seen in my life". I could not look away for long without returning. His Face was there on and off for the best part of the talk. Nothing I did made the Face go away. I felt a great sense of peace after the meeting and told my family all about it. I return to the memory of that day once in a while and as I recall Jesus' Face I am once again filled with a great sense of peace.

Thanks to those books I have found Jesus to be my most best friend, guide, father, spouse that is in me all the time.
(E.de G., Mexico, August 1996).

A friend recently gave me several Volumes of True Life in God. I truly believe these are Our Lord's words, for they have touched me in a way that only His Word could.
(D. M., USA, August 1996)

I am enclosing the contribution for the TLIG Newsletters. My family and I continue to read and share these wonderful messages in the TLIG volumes; and to pray for conversions. These awesome messages have changed and inspired so many hearts, returning them to the Lord.
(S. M., USA, September 1996)

When for the first time I heard and saw the True Life in God book which contains the private life testimony of Vassula with Jesus and Mother Mary, I did not believe. But I tried to think objectively and not to judge. I tried to pray and beseech the guidance of the Holy Spirit in order that my thoughts heart and my will are not covered with antipathy or rejection, but to find God's Will by having those books published. After I read the True Life in God book, I found the messages of God were the same with the contents of the Bible. Gradually I started to like it and I felt so calm, peaceful and sometimes even feel sad / hurt. And there were also a motivation to continue regular introspection, conversion and try to be a good follower of Christ.
(Mrs H., Indonesia, October 1996)

Please know you (Vassula) are in my prayers every day and I thank Jesus often for the grace of having seen His beautiful face in yours as you sat in the chair where I say my prayers when you stayed at my home.
(P. B., November, 1996)

Vassula Ryden's books have inspired my mom and me to feel the presence of God more. We are full believers that the messages come from Jesus and the Virgin Mary. We are Catholics and go to church regularly.
(L. B., USA, November 1996)

I once suffered from loneliness not being married, and an old age pensioner 75 years that was before I started reading TLIG. After the 1st book I was not alone, now I'm very happy for I'm getting like Vassula, I'm talking to my Holy Family most of the day. My happiest time is at 2.45 p.m. on Sunday afternoon, when I got the smell of incense knowing that no incense has in fact been used. In the early days it was the smell of roses yet no roses were in the Church. How did I know this? You see I'm the church's Sacristan (unpaid) for a number of years, even the priest did not know why he wanted me as sacristan. At first I did not want this job, now I love it and know why daily communion is so important.
(J. D., UK., November, 1996)

... tive a oportunidade de tomar conhecimento através de uma amiga também J'ai rencontré une jeune fille qui était, elle aussi, enseignante et nous nous sommes mariés. Nous avons eu le grand bonheur de voir notre union bénie par la naissance d'un petit garçon. Hélas, lors d'un accident de la route Danielle et Brice ont trouvé la mort. A cette époque, ma vie a basculé ; profondément atteint dans mon équilibre, le Malin a trouvé une place pour son oeuvre de destruction. Mais Dieu n'en avait pas fini avec moi. Au printemps 1995, au plus profond de mon désarroi physique et moral, grâce à un couple ami de Vassula, j'ai eu la grâce de la rencontrer et j'ai eu le privilège de prier avec elle.
(E. R., Gex, November 1996)

A couple of weeks ago we got a new member in our Thursday Rosary prayer group. She is Swedish, but has lived in Paris for 25 years. She told me she has been an actress and photo model and lived a very worldly life. Three years ago a friend lent her a `True Life in God' volume. When reading, it was as if a sentence was lifted out of the page: `Change your life!' Since then she got a firm belief in God, left her old life, converted to Catholicism, prays 3 hours a day, also the Rosary, fasts on bread and water Wednesdays and Fridays and has come to Sweden to `give witness'.
(K. W., Sweden, November, 1996)

Eu fui seminarista durante cinco anos. Mais ou menos por dois anos após ter saído do seminário, comecei a me desligar da Igreja. Assaltava-me a amarga sensação de que o tempo que eu havia dedicado a Ele havia sido em vão. Não perdi a fé, mas durante três ou quatro anos me afastei bastante da participação na Missa. Certa vez, conheci o boletim "Atualizando Medjugorje", que li avidamente, quando tomei conhecimento de Vassula Ryden e dos livros com as mensagens. Ao ler, sentia que era o próprio Senhor que falava, pois as Suas Palavras tocavam fundo no meu coração, e queimavam como fogo, de modo a consumir a letargia, o distanciamento que me haviam dominado durante muito tempo. Senti que, apesar de tudo, Jesus se fazia presente e vinha em socorro dos seus filhos, para reafirmar a eles o Seu imenso e incomparável Amor e para salvá-los dos perigos a respeito dos quais eles próprios não estavam alertados.
(S. T. B., Brazil, December 1996)

After I read the book, I knew this is the best mystical and spiritual book from so many books I have ever read before! Because of this book, I know how perfect the love of God is. He is so sensitive and Almighty, the God who really misses the response of Love from us. The book truly totally changed my opinion about the Lord and certainly about Jesus. After that I firmly and courageously admitted that Jesus is God and Savior. For me Jesus is the Lord who is really humane and at the same time a person who is really Divine. The messages of Jesus through Vassula has changed my faith to Christ. I started to follow Him. And a few months later I ever made my confession for the first time since around fifteen years ago, and with the new spirit started to participate in Mass regularly. Through Vassula, Jesus taught me that He Himself wanted the relationship and not based on needs or duties only, but based on Love. It was a lesson which to me the mystical truth, and the peak of all of my spiritual search.
(A. P. E., Indonesia, December 1996)

Because you cared to encourage her to go forward for the blessing of the Holy Cross through Vassula, Clare was drenched (cleansed) in tears for nearly 40 minutes. She just could not stop crying because of the Holy Spirit working within her. When we were driving away, Clare who is 13 said, "Mom, I'm not crying just because of my own sins (becoming intensely aware), but I'm crying because of everyone's sins in this whole world." I said, "This is a very great grace you have received.
(D. P., USA, December 1996)

I photocopied sample pages from the diary in which Vassula wrote, guided by the hand of Jesus himself. I was immediately impressed with the stately elegance, the very majesty of the handwriting, the constancy of formation of each letter throughout the pages. Just viewing the guided handwriting leaves me in awe. I can readily attest that handwriting such as is exhibited throughout Vassula's books of instruction would be humanly impossible to duplicate or imitate! Clearly a loving God, the Father, a concerned Savior, is writing to his children…
(L. S., USA, December 1996)

... tive a oportunidade de tomar conhecimento através de uma amiga também brasileira, igualmente convertida, dos livros de Vassula. Fui à minha primeira reunião com Vassula. Que surpresa vê-la tão jovem, bela e tão semelhante a nós. Uma escolhida do Senhor. Uma mensageira do Senhor. Ali na minha frente alguém que já tinha visto nosso Jesus com os seus próprios olhos. Alguém que já tinha ouvido a Sua voz e sentido Sua divina energia. Inacreditavelmente real. Oramos, Vassula deu seu testemunho, falou longamente sobre as mensagens e orientações do Senhor, logo depois recebíamos a benção do Espírito Santo. Senti imediatamente a mudança de energia. Senti a presença do Espírito Santo. Minhas lágrimas desciam espontaneamente.
(T. B., Brazil, 1997)

I first saw and obtained TLIG books, on the Feast of The Sacred Heart of Jesus, on the Christian Calender in 97'. Since reading TLIG, at that time, I had a conversion as to the deepness of Gods love. Afterwards many signs have been given to me, bringing me closer to God with prayer and by choosing a holy life dedicated to Jesus and Mary. So now through Vassula's messages, I'm more consistent in saying the rosary every day. I know Jesus is real through Vassula's writings, in which they acknowledge Him the Lord.
(M. B., Australia, 1997)

Dieu soit glorifié. Et à vous un très grand merci et ma reconnaissance pour votre aide avec vos prières, c'est un vrai miracle. Mon mari est complètement guéri de son cancer de la gorge. Après 3 mois de radiothérapie, nous avons appris que tous les symptômes ont disparu ; il est complètement guéri. Pour moi c'est un cadeau du ciel (nous fêtons 25 ans de mariage le 11.7.97). Le temps d'épreuves pendant la maladie était très difficile, mais nous avons tout abandonné dans la volonté du Seigneur. Nous rendons grâce à notre Père au Ciel et à notre Sainte Mère pour cette guérison ! Que le Seigneur vous garde et vous bénisse ainsi que votre mission, la Vraie Vie en Dieu.
(A. E-K., July 1997)

I would like to testify and witness what happened to me when I went to see Vassula with my friend in London on 18th November 1995, during the talk Vassula was giving I witnessed the following: Vassula's head was transformed into the Head of the crucified Jesus. Going home in the car later my friend shared with me her experience of seeing the Head of the crucified Jesus. I then shared with her my own experience. Prior to this date I knew very little about Vassula.
(A. F., UK, 1997)

Back in 1994, I went with some friends of mine from my Church to Birmingham on a day pilgrimage. We went to a Church called St Francis. Father Michael was there and he introduced Vassula to us and spoke about her. After he finished speaking, Vassula got up at the altar and started to speak. At first I did not believe her, but then something strange happened. Her face did not change but I saw a beard and a moustache appear on her face. I thought what on earth was going on, I thought the devil was playing tricks on me, so I said a prayer inside me. I kept turning my face away, but each time I would look it was still the same. Anyway, after I prayed, I knew this was the work of God, and I prayed that God would forgive me for having doubted. I know Vassula is genuine person and I have grown very found of her.
(K. H., UK, 1997)

I have just read My Angel Daniel, and what a beautiful book! I saw Vassula speak in Lund, Sweden, 11 October 1996. The speech itself was deeply moving - the way she did it even more. Never before have I seen a genuine humility combined with such a tremendous strength, a soft beauty together with immense power. Was it the Power of the Holy Spirit?
(Jannik, Denmark, 1997)

Acho a Vassula um instrumento de Cristo, e através daquilo que transmite, com convicção, fé e firmeza, o seu testemunho e mensagens, nos coloca a disposição de Jesus, como Seus instrumentos. Que bom se fôssemos um milésimo do que Vassula o é em relação a Cristo. Que seu despreendimento em favor de Jesus nos sirva de exemplo a ser seguido. Tive um fortalecimento da base da minha fé.
(R. F. T. L., Brazil, 1997)

We had been at a meeting for Peace and Unity at which the Greek Orthodox mystic Vassula Ryden had been speaking and where there had been a session for healing. A little lady, who had walked up behind me, pointed down the road and said one word "look". I looked through the leaves at the sun from the corner of my eyes, and then after a couple of seconds found myself moving forward and looking straight into the sun! I was surprised that I could now do this as I am very light sensitive due to blocked glands in my eyes; it would not normally have been possible for this to happen, but I was now able to look directly into the sun without it hurting my eyes at all - it had changed from being normal bright red and had taken on the appearance of a huge white host in the sky. Above the "Host" was a bright red mist that sat above and slightly around the top of the sun - between the "Host" and the red mist - there was a bright blue band of colour in a semicircle actually attached to the rim of the "Host".
(D. McC., Ireland, 1997)

I have three books of Vassula's now. They are like a prayer. I feel cleansed both inside and outwardly since Vassula's messages through the Hand of Jesus touched my life. I am house-bound through an inoperable heart complaint. I am trying to do all I can to spread the Word through Vassula.
(Mary, Warwickshire, UK, 1997)

Na palestra de Vassula em Brasília, em 1997, no momento em que ela iniciou a rezar e invocou o Espirito Santo, senti forte perfume, ao meu redor. Como estava com os olhos fechados, os abri na tentativa de ver quem poderia naquele momento esta colocando perfume, entretanto não vi ninguém ao redor de mim se movimentar, todos estavam concentrados na oração. Ao término perguntei a minha esposa que estava ao meu lado, se tinha sentido algum perfume, tendo ela respondido negativamente. Após este fato, minha vida religiosa e particular mudou muito. Senti uma necessidade muito grande de me aproximar cada vez mais da igreja. Passei a assistir missa diária, a ler os livros A VERDADEIRA VIDA EM DEUS, que foram muito úteis para o crescimento da minha espiritualidade.
(E.L.M. M., Brazil, 1997)

Thanks to Vassula for the Cardiff experience. I wanted very much to receive the healing blessing with the relic of the True Cross but admit I looked askance at those who "rested in the Spirit" - Later, finding myself prostrate and such a well of peace, I can only say "Thank You, My God". Also, I would just like to tell you that my companion and I both had the same experience (unknown to each at the time) of Vassula's face disappearing to be replaced by a shimmering of gold surrounded by light brown curly hair.
(Pat, Gwent, UK, 1997)

Vassula is so unique because she is, empty, purified and says only what Jesus teaches her. I jumped with joy (internally) when I heard her once say in answer to a question "I don't know, Jesus had not told me anything about this" (Franciscans audio tape USA, I think). In this day and age of ego/intellect - defence of this kind was a true gem. Humility through Him.
(Richard, UK, 1997)

Je suis sourde de l'oreille gauche et il ne me reste que 35% d'écoute à l'oreille droite. Après votre témoignage à la réunion du 25 janvier 1997 à '-sHertogenbosch, en Hollande, vous m'avez imposé la Croix sur le front en priant l'Esprit Saint. A ce moment, votre regard et le mien se sont croisés et c'est comme si le temps s'était suspendu. J'étais très émue d'être tout près de la statue de la Sainte Vierge et devant l'Image de Jésus. Je leur disais : ‘si vous m'aimiez vraiment, vous me guéririez’. J'ai honte maintenant d'avoir pensé cela, car après l'expérience du Saint Esprit, j'ai compris à quel point souffrir comme Jésus a souffert est un privilège. J'ai reçu une grâce spéciale car lorsque je suis tombée dans le repos de l'Esprit, j'ai senti Jésus et Marie. De tout mon coeur, merci, car j'ai obtenu la guérison de mon âme, en attendant ma guérison physique.
(C. B-F., Holland, February 1997)

Un jour de novembre 1993, une amie m'a invitée à écouter une cassette : ‘Vassula, Réunion à la Mutualité’. Ce qui m'a frappée le plus, c'est l'AUTORITE et l'AMOUR des Paroles de Jésus transmises par sa messagère, son Prophète comme Il l'appelle. J'ai décidé d'acheter tous les livres de la Vraie Vie en Dieu, étant le titre choisi par Jésus lui-même. Depuis ce jour de novembre, la Bonne Nouvelle est devenue pour moi, un éblouissement quotidien. Je retourne à la messe, je me nourris chaque jour de la Parole de Dieu dans les fascicules: ‘Prions en Eglise’ ; toute la journée et même la nuit, si je me réveille, je prie ou plutôt je le laisse prier car je suis incapable de prier sans cesse tout en travaillant.J'ai l'impression d'être réveillée de ma léthargie. Je suis profondément heureuse malgré les gros soucis.
(F. B., France, February 1997)

These books have transformed my life and saved me, in the sense that I believe, I have now changed my priorities, --my view of what is important in life, and have thrown away unnecessary baggage. I am seeking more of God's words and messages in time for my readings and reflections this coming Lenten season.
(B. O., USA, February 1997)

Meeting Vassula in person was a wonderful experience especially what happened during the healing session. ... During the healing session, we were told to fall in line side by side. I was staring at the floor praying while waiting for my turn to be healed. All the time, I was anticipating to see the face clearly. Then it was my turn to be healed I looked up to see her and to my great surprise, I saw the face of our Lord Jesus Christ. We were looking eyeball to eyeball.
(V. C. V., Philippines, February, 1997)

Dès que l'on m'a montré les livres de la Vraie Vie en Dieu, j'ai protesté, je ne voulais pas les lire. Cela a duré plusieurs mois. Finalement, je les ai tous lus et c'est à 18 ans que j'ai eu une conversion totale. Personne ne me reconnaissait.
(U. L., Belgium, April 1997)

I have to honestly say that "True Life in God" has increased my love and faith in Jesus at 100% more than I had before. I used to take the Lord's name in vain ... Now when I do it, I feel sad and cry because I know that I hurt Jesus. "True Life in God" has started me on a daily reading of prayers - half to one hour, at least (1) Rosary, and a Chaplet of the Divine Mercy prayer on my Rosary.
(B. J. R., USA, May, 1996)

I have received two graces through the intercession of the servant of God (Vassula Ryden). I am very thankful and grateful they came true. I was almost on the street and God helped me and saved me through your prayers, also my daughter would not talk to me for a year and she called. I tried other intercessions but to no avail.
(M. S., USA, May, 1996)

A la réunion du 3 mai 1997 à Bâle en Suisse, lors de la bénédiction par Vassula, je suis tombée dans le repos de l'Esprit (on me l'a expliqué après car je n'avais pas notion de ce phénomène, et je ne l'avais jamais expérimenté moi-même). J'ai senti que quelqu'un m'allongeait les bras le long du corps. Presque aussitôt, mes bras se sont écartés, sans que je puisse m'y opposer. Je me disais : me voilà dans la même position que Jésus sur la croix, et je le remerciais de m'accorder la grâce de partager sa Croix. J'étais allongée en face de l'image du Pantocrator ; j'étais consciente de ce qui se passait autour de moi mais je ne pouvais pas bouger, plaquée au sol. Je sentais que ma main droite seulement était en position de bénédiction (j'ai pensé à ce moment que Jésus portait la Croix sur l'épaule gauche et qu'avec sa main droite, il bénissait son peuple). Ce que j'ai vécu et senti physiquement ressemble aux douleurs de l'enfantement, douleurs sans interruption que je sentais jusqu'au coeur. J'avais l'impression que ma tête avait triplé de volume, j'avais très soif, et du mal à respirer. Cette passion a duré deux heures et demie. Durant ce repos dans l'Esprit, j'ai découvert le Coeur de Jésus. Mon coeur endurci s'est ouvert à la grâce ; j'ai découvert le Christ. Sa croix s'est imprégnée dans mon coeur. J'ai compris que la Croix, c'est l'Amour. Cette expérience est pour moi la manifestation de la présence du Seigneur par l'intermédiaire de sa messagère, Vassula.
(E. B., France, June 1997)

Une amie m'emmena à une réunion de Vassula à Lausanne. A la fin de la réunion, elle pria sur les personnes qui le désiraient. Inutile de vous dire que lorsque je vis certaines personnes tomber ‘raides’, tout mon esprit cartésien ressortit. Pourtant, je ne pus m'empêcher de me lever et d'aller vers Vassula, afin de recevoir également l'Esprit Saint. Plus j'avançais, plus mon coeur battait. La présence du Saint Esprit et du Christ était telle que j'en avais le souffle coupé.
(P. L., Switzerland, June 1997)

Après avoir eu une guérison spontanée à Hertoyenbosch (Hollande), je voudrais remercier Jésus. Il me pousse de plus en plus à aider à faire connaître Son Hymne d'Amour. Alors, j'ai inventé un petit truc... Je laisse toujours une des vidéocassettes de Vassula dans le magnétoscope. Si quelqu'un vient chez moi, je le branche et cela marche ; ma propriétaire était encore chez moi à une heure du matin. Alors que son mari a téléphoné à une voisine, celle-ci monta frapper chez moi. Comme elle avait aperçu un peu de la vidéocassette, elle revint le matin pour regarder et écouter les merveilles de Dieu. Ainsi, je fais de mon mieux.
(J. R., Belgium, June 1997)

Dieu soit glorifié. Et à vous un très grand merci et ma reconnaissance pour votre aide avec vos prières, c'est un vrai miracle. Mon mari est complètement guéri de son cancer de la gorge. Après 3 mois de radiothérapie, nous avons appris que tous les symptômes ont disparu ; il est complètement guéri. Pour moi c'est un cadeau du ciel (nous fêtons 25 ans de mariage le 11.7.97). Le temps d'épreuves pendant la maladie était très difficile, mais nous avons tout abandonné dans la volonté du Seigneur. Nous rendons grâce à notre Père au Ciel et à notre Sainte Mère pour cette guérison ! Que le Seigneur vous garde et vous bénisse ainsi que votre mission, la Vraie Vie en Dieu.
(A., E-K., July 1997)

I was a very bad sinner, deep into mortal sin, fallen away from the Church since a little girl, and struggling since 1992 to fully convert and become holy, but kept falling after every attempt. On October, 30th, looking at that picture of Jesus on the cover of the TLIG books, I noticed Jesus present in it in a supernatural way, . . . I returned to the USA the next day, and continued to read her book, and continued to pray thru her prayer booklet, begging Jesus to please not leave me after the Christmas season! In January I started receiving signal graces from Jesus, teaching me how to amend my ways, and now 8 months later, I am fully converted, going to Mass, adoration & praying the Rosary 3 times EVERY day.
(D. B., USA, August 1997)

You were standing at the entrance to the room you were to speak in. Then I had three more beautiful experiences: While you were speaking, the strands of your hair became golden and turned into what can only be described as a magnificent facial frame of gold. I did everything to check my eyesight. I have yearned for what the saints describe as the feeling of the Presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. I have never experienced it, though, until that day.
(F. M., USA, August 1997)

Nothing that I heard from Vassula last night was "new" to me. The messages are the same that I heard in my Pentecostal church more than 20 years ago…not that I was affected by the messages 20 years ago…but last night I found them extremely powerful. I was emotionally affected by her speaking. I tried to describe it to M. today and the only way I could explain it was that Vassula's delivery was so filled with love and peace, no one hearing it could think of doubting her words. I'm obviously still affected by her words, or I couldn't write a note like this! Only one other time in my life have I ever felt the power of God like I did last night, and that was when I was baptized (complete immersion in water) at the age of 16.
(T. S., USA, August 1997)

We had been at a meeting for Peace and Unity at which the Greek Orthodox mystic Vassula Ryden had been speaking and where there had been a session for healing. As I was waiting for my friends to return with their car a little lady, who had walked up behind me, pointed down the road and said one word - "look". I looked down the road to where she was pointing but was blinded by the sun and had to move into the shade of a tree in order to look at where she was pointing. I looked through the leaves at the sun from the corner of my eyes, and then after a couple of seconds found myself moving forward and looking straight into the sun! I was surprised that I could now do this as I am very light sensitive due to blocked glands in my eyes. It would not normally have been possible for this to happen, but I was now able to look directly into the sun without it hurting my eyes at all - it had changed from being normal bright red and had taken on the appearance of a huge white host in the sky.
(D. McC., Ireland, September 1997)

... estava passando por um longo período da doença que parecia não ter mais fim, estava com depressão profunda, com forte tendência suicida e bastante debilitada. Estava no fundo do poço... Conheci então os livros da Verdadeira Vida em Deus, especialmente o Volume IV, comecei a ler abrindo, por acaso, na página 94 - com a mensagem de 27/11/90 - e era justamente o dia 26/11/97, e isso me tocou muito. Senti Jesus me resgatando, senti que era amada por Ele. Não queria mais parar de ler. Olhava a capa do livro, a Sagrada Face, e a enamorava..., quando tinha momentos de tristeza pegava o livro abria numa página qualquer e lia. Isso foi me fortalecendo a cada dia. Fui lendo todos os Volumes o mais rápido que podia, pois a leitura me alimentava. Hoje, para honra e glória de Jesus e de Maria Santíssima estou curada, ...
(M. L. L. C., Brazil, October 1997)

Eu venho testemunhar que na palestra de Vassula Ryden, em Porto Alegre, em Outubro de 1997, enxerguei com meus olhos a transfiguração do rosto de Vassula no Rosto de Jesus Cristo, o que durou aproximadamente cinco minutos, e de um modo muito natural, se é que pode-se assim chamar.
(S. A. C., Brazil, October 1997)

Eu testemunho que, ao assistir Vassula Ryden em Porto Alegre, no estádio da Brigada Militar em 1997, tive a graça de, em dado momento, ver aos poucos seu rosto se transformando e surgir nele o Rosto de Jesus Cristo. O mais surpreendente foi a naturalidade da maneira como eu presenciei e senti.
(I. B. L., Brazil, October 1997)

Eu testemunho que, na palestra de Vassula Ryden em Outubro de 1997, em Porto Alegre, senti um odor de rosas dentro do ginásio, juntamente com um sentimento de paz, fraternidade e concórdia, que ora reinava e reina em sua pessoa, visto que a mesma é iluminada pela Santíssima Trindade e pela Virgem Maria.
(R. S. Jr., Brazil, October 1997)

Je soussigné Gaby Braquet certifie que le 12 novembre 1997, suite à la conférence du même jour de Vassula à Paris, je me suis réveillée la nuit, constatant que des prières à Notre Dame se disaient en moi, et que ma bouche les articulait. Merci à Notre Seigneur de nous envoyer Vassula pour laquelle j'ai une profonde admiration. Merci à Notre Saint Abba pour ce trésor des Messages de Paix et d'Amour. Depuis que je les lis (1993), je me sens beaucoup mieux participer aux Messes dominicales de notre paroisse et mon intimité envers Dieu semble être établie.
(G. B., Paris, France, November 1997)

Vassula, quand vous avez invoqué l'Esprit Saint pour qu'Il descende sur nous, j'aurais voulu pleurer comme cette dame derrière moi. Non, au contraire, c'est une grande force qui m'a envahie soudain, comme renouvelant mon sang, et quand vous avez prononcé dans la prière le mot ‘intégrité’, j'ai ressenti cela en moi dans le sens d'une unification. Cinq jours après, je sens encore cette force qui me rassemble de l'intérieur. Avant, je disais : ‘Seigneur, viens !’ ; maintenant, je dis : ‘Seigneur, ne me retire pas Ton Esprit Saint !’ On peut vous témoigner amour, reconnaissance, profonde émotion de vous avoir vue et entendue si simple, si forte, si complètement offerte au service de la Trinité Divine. Les mots ‘sacrifice’, ‘don de soi’ prennent enfin une nouvelle signification.
(C. E., Forges-Les-Bains, France, Novembre 1997)

Je peux affirmer que le l4 novembre 1997, lors de la réunion de Vassula à Nice, j'ai vu le Christ en Vassula. C'est merveilleux, la plus belle chose de ma vie et un grand bonheur. Vive Jésus, Il nous veut que du bien, il faut que le monde entier se réveille !
(P. T., France, Novembre 1997)

Pendant la réunion à Nice, le 14 novembre 1997, nous avons eu la grâce de constater la modification du visage de Vassula en celui du Christ. Les traits de Vassula sont devenus masculins et nous avons ressenti très fortement la Présence de Jésus et nous étions tous émus jusqu'aux larmes. Ceci est valable pour une amie, ainsi que toute la rangée derrière nous qui voyait le même phénomène. Je peux ajouter que, pendant deux mois environ, mon coeur brûlait d'amour et de charité pour mon prochain. [non daté, texte conforme à l'original]
(M. G., France, November 1997)

Ce chemin passait par Toulouse avec Vassula car, au cours d'un repos dans l'Esprit, j'ai vraiment vécu l'extase et le ravissement dont parlent certains mystiques et c'est extraordinaire. J'ai reçu une grande Force dans le coeur, j'avais tellement la sensation d'être visitée, ‘comblée’ à ce niveau-là, et je pensais que mon coeur allait exploser et que je ne pourrais plus le supporter. Le bonheur en Dieu, la Vie en Dieu, quelques instants. J'avais déjà vécu cela lors d'une retraite, devant le Saint Sacrement exposé.
(S. R., Limoges, November 1997)

Le 14 novembre 1997 à Nice, j'étais placée au quatrième rang dans la salle. J'étais très recueillie pour écouter Vassula et je fermais les yeux. A un moment, j'ai levé mon regard et j'ai aperçu distinctement le visage de Jésus superposé sur celui de Vassula. Mon étonnement a vite fait place à la confusion de regarder Jésus avec tant d'insistance mais je me sentais malgré tout si proche de Lui. J'ai pris mon visage entre mes mains en pleurant d'émotion et quand de nouveau, j'ai levé mon regard, le visage de Jésus avait disparu et Vassula parlait toujours. Merci Seigneur de cette grande grâce!
(A. M. J., France, November 1997)

Lors de la réunion à Toulouse, nous étions comme dans un autre monde, très léger, comme si nous étions sans pesanteur. Je dois dire aussi que parmi nous, beaucoup ont senti des odeurs d'encens, mais aussi des parfums beaucoup plus fleuris. J'ai beaucoup aimé voir le Souffle de l'Esprit sur toutes ces personnes et chacun a reçu individuellement ce dont il avait besoin, et tout cela avec le discours unique de Vassula.
(M. L., France, November 1997)

After the introductory speakers, Vassula took the stage. It was then that He entered the room in a most majestic manner. I could see with the eyes of my heart and feel clearly and distinctly with all of my being, Jesus, sitting on a throne above Vassula, although I could not see him with my eyes open. I felt his Eucharistic Presence flowing out and down as He was anointing Vassula and every word she spoke was reinforced by Jesus' spirit and immediate presence. I felt truly blessed and comforted. I felt peace, love and desire to grow in holiness, a strengthening, you know, all the things you feel when Jesus is near.
(P. H., USA, November 1997)

Entre Dezembro de 1996 e Junho de 1997 li todos os livros disponíveis de Vassula. Daí em diante, sempre que preciso tomar decisões importantes e difíceis, rezo, me concentro e abro aleatoriamente algum dos livros lidos: a resposta sempre está lá.
(M. C., Brazil, December 1997)

Nos esprits et nos coeurs ne sont pas prêts d'oublier ces quelques heures passées avec cette grande messagère du Seigneur. C'est vraiment Jésus qui parle à travers Vassula. Quelle grâce d'être ainsi enseignés par notre Seigneur.
(M. G., France, December 1997)

A votre conférence à Laval, nous étions suspendus à vos lèvres devant l'intérêt de vos paroles. Vivant nous aussi de la Lettre d'Amour du Seigneur, nous avions vraiment l'impression que vos paroles venaient confirmer ce que nous avions dans le coeur. L'Oeuvre de l'Esprit Saint est tellement grandiose autour de vous et en vous, qu'on se trouvait comme projeté en Lui ! Avec vous, on peut voir un Evangile vivant, surtout lorsque vous imposez votre Croix sur chacun. En tout cas, je vous rassure, ce n'est pas votre force qui ressort de vous, mais bien celle de l'Esprit Saint, que vous avez le bonheur de rencontrer dès ici-bas. Merci des efforts que vous vous donnez afin que le Merveilleux Message d'Amour du Bon Dieu parvienne à un grand nombre d'entre nous.
(C. P., I France, December 1997)

J'étais dépendante du tabac depuis 40 ans. J'ai tout essayé avec des moyens humains, sans succès. En venant vous écouter à Nice, j'ai dit au Seigneur que je souhaitais la guérison de ce tabagisme. Vous m'avez imposé les mains et j'ai prié très fort. Je suis rentrée calme et sans manque. Cela fait 15 jours maintenant et je ne fume plus, sans m'en rendre compte, sans le moindre rattrapage nutritionnel, sans la moindre nervosité. Le Seigneur est le meilleur des médecins !
(D. R., France, December 1997)

Lors de la réunion de Vassula à Toulouse le 15 novembre 1997, j'ai reçu une très forte conversion qui s'est prolongée pendant un peu près une quinzaine de jours. Une vision pendant la conférence puis une autre pendant cette conversion. Vassula m'a permis de trouver ce que je recherchais depuis de longues années (ce que j'appelle un renouvellement de la foi) et de pouvoir répondre à de nombreuses questions que je me posais sur la religion. Un grand merci à Dieu à travers elle.
(E. W., France, December 1997)

Tomei conhecimento de Vassula por intermédio de minha mãe e de uma amiga sua. Pude ler até o sexto volume e, como católico, de famílias católicas, me senti muito tocado pelas suas mensagens e acredito serem de Jesus. Parabéns pela 'home page', e que as mensagens de Vassula possam ser cada vez mais difundidas, pois são alimento do mais puro e precioso para nossas almas neste deserto que habitamos.
(C. M. G. Guerra, Brazil, 1998)

At the age of 23 I had the grace of an inner conversion thanks to Vassula's conversations with Jesus in True Life in God. Although I had been brought up Catholic, I felt God was very distant and shouldn't be "bothered". I studied nursing. I administered and promoted Family Planning, I consulted an Astrologist, believed in reincarnation and was into New Age ideology. And then I read True Life in God. As I write this I find it incredible to believe that only 3 years have passed since I fell in love with my God. I now live for Him. My life has radically changed! I crave daily Mass and quiet moments with Our Lord. Sacred Scripture previously dry and dull, I find beautiful and profound. I pray the daily Rosary. I have come to realize and love Catholic Doctrine as the Truth. I even find myself longing for confession!
(J. H., England, 1998)

Hace un año que descubrí este gran testimonio de que Vassula nos va dando sobre Jesucristo y la Virgen Maria; desde entonces estoy muy sorprendido , mucho más con la segunda venida de Cristo en este tiempo. Yo soy un padre de familia con nueve hijos, tengo 39 años; y mi humilde testimonio es que desde entonces rezo el rosario todos los dias. También he transmitido a mis hijos el que participen de en el rezo del rosario, sobretodo cuando viajamos; la verdad es que no ofrecen resistencia a hacerlo. He distribuido con algunos amigos este libro, lo he compilado en un programa para que puedan leerlo sin la necesidad del navegador.
(F. M., Spain, 1998)

I was surprised to read in the magazine that someone had experienced Vassula's face change with moustache and beard. In fact, I have experienced that (whilst watching videos of her). I'm not so certain about the moustache but certainly the beard. When I first saw Vassula in Birmingham a few years back, her face didn't change but, looking at it, I felt that I was seeing the epitome of beauty and suffering, translucent, too deep to explain in words.
(D. M., Cardiff, UK, 1998)

In 1990 I became a lay member of the Marian Movement of Priests. At around this time I received an audio-tape, of Vassula whilst being interviewed. I loved the tape and from then on, I obtained her videos and books. Through TLIG, in 1998, I found a special Love of God, especially through Jesus and Mary. I started to understand God's great Love for us and how he wanted us to love Him in return. I wanted to know Him more and His Love is so wonderful and even though I have multiple sclerosis, and I'm mostly in a wheel chair, He makes me feel whole Because He is So real and human, being my friend.
(M. P., New Zealand, 1998)

Starting with the Rosary with Vassula leading the last mystery, she went on with her talk followed by the healing service. Many rested in the Spirit. Before that though, Vassula explained how she would be praying over people and as she got the cross and held it up, a friend sitting on my left side started crying. I asked her why and she said that she saw Jesus' Face on Vassula's.
(J. R., Bangkok, Thailand, 1998)

Before my very eyes, right across the stage I saw two small flames, as if peaks, go in her direction. I was upset, thinking it might be the start of a fire! Yet, there was no smoke nor any odour of burning!. My friend beside me nudged the friend beside her and said, "Do you see what I see?" When I could no longer contain myself I asked, "what do you see?" She replied "Look, look at the flames!" So that confirmed my own observations. It was not my imagination! After a while, I noticed it happen again. More "flames", if I may call them such - seemed to leap faster and higher, and head towards her! The phenomenon repeated itself at quick intervals, the "flames" or "peaks on fire" moving more rapidly and leaping higher! By the time Vassula was concluding her address and we all stood up to express our profound thanks what I saw seemed incredible! Indeed I was left awe - struck and speechless!. There stood Vassula framed with "tongues of fire"! It was exquisitely ethereal!
(S. S., USA, 1998)

I began to read the messages she receives and suddenly it dawned on me. Whenever I opened the photocopies (no books were available them) to read what Jesus is saying to us today, a radiance of this amazing warmth of love and joy filled my heart. These messages revealed to me who my real Father is. Our Father, Omnipotent and Divine, yet so gentle, loving, meek and humble, an abyss of compassion and mercy. These messages gave me understanding of what God is and what He wants from us in our lives. At one point they started to talk to me. I sensed suddenly, deep in my heart Jesus addressing me personally through these messages realizing, it is indeed He, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lord's speaking today!!!
(E. S., Israel, 1998)

Em 1988 comecei a ler as Mensagens de Jesus a Vassula e elas entraram profundamente na minha vida. Hoje Sinto-me inteiramente renovada, fortalecida na Fé. Leio, promovo (principalmente na minha família) e acompanho as mensagens da "A Verdadeira Vida Em Deus".
(A. T., Brazil, 1998)

Also half way through one of Vassula's books I had an experience I will not forget in a hurry. My background was Chapel up-bringing, I now go to Church of England. I stand for unity etc but I used to have a problem with Our Lady coming to people of today. I remember thinking I would love to meet whoever she is and tell her what I think of her! Well like I said half way through Vassula's book I found myself saying, "Holy Mother of Jesus forgive me". Right away came a voice inside me saying, "I forgive you, keep your eyes on my Son". Well that put me in my place.
