The Friday Night Rosary begins at 6:30 pm. Free Tours are available beginning at 4:00 pm every Friday. Impromptu rosaries are started and recited by visitors all throughout the weekend on Holy Family Hill. Everyone is welcome to join in.
Our Lady the Immaculate Virgin, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) organization whose mission is to support Our Lady's request to have her likeness, as Our Lady of America, placed in the National Shrine to The Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C. and to support the preservation of the Holy Ground in Rome City, IN where the central messages of Our Lady of America were given and this special devotion began. OLTIV, Inc. claims no affiliation with any other group or website promoting this cause.
“In cases which concern private revelations, it is better to believe than not to believe, for if you believe and it is proven true, you will be happy that you believed, because our Holy Mother asked it of you. If you believed and it should be proven false, you will receive all the blessings as if it has been true, because you believed it to be true.” Pope Urban VIII
"What can be concluded canonically is that the devotion was both approved by
Archbishop Leibold and, what is more, was actively promoted by him. In addition, over
the years, other Bishops have approved the devotion and have participated in public
devotion to the Mother of God, under the title of Our Lady of America."
The Most Reverend Raymond L. Burke, Archbishop of Saint Louis

Thanks for sharing the photo of the beautiful setup for Our Lady. Is that an orb I see in the upper right hand corner?
My old church down home in Czestochowa, Texas still has it's communion rails, and they will stay in place. Times and things are always changing, who knows, we may be using them again, sooner than later and that would suit me just fine. Our Lord deserves alot more respect than what He gets now.
God's love,

THAT is definitely an orb!
Our family went to see the OLA statue in Indianapolis the other weekend. Quite impressive, to say the least.
I have to say, the only reason we actually went was because of the extremely negative comments made by the anonymous person who is so adamant that this is a hoax. All they accomplished was to bring another family to this special devotion.
If this is the devil's work, then the devil won't be in business much longer.
J. Hoffman,
Praised be Jesus Christ!
Yes,
That is an orb in the upper right hand corner. I have to go back to July 6th 2007. I had been to The Springs many times before July 6th 2007. I had taken hundreds of photos with my Sony Digital while I had visited there. I never had an orb appear in anyone of my pictures there or anywhere at anytime since I bought the camera in 2000. When I visited on July 6th 2007 I brought my Sony and I also brought my new Casio along purposely. The reason I brought both was because I have been using the Casio for about the last year and put the Sony aside since then. My thinking why I brought the Sony is because I have hundreds of pictures from Springs but not one orb. We arrived on the 6th mid-afternoon. My wife and I went up to the room we always stay in when we go there. It is the room closest to the church right outside the door off the balcony of the church on the 2nd floor. I put my things on the bed and I went directly to the balcony of the church. I took out my Sony camera the one that has shot hundreds of pictures here without ever getting one orb. The first picture I took that day was a picture you can see if you go back to the July 10th, 2007 archive. Let me tell you after I took that picture and saw that huge orb I was floored. Like Larry say’s she has a great sense of humor. For me to take hundreds of pictures there and give me just one picture with an orb by her in the church to me is very humourous. It was like she was telling me. Hey kid I’m gonna give you one shot at this and don’t screw up this picture. My camera was non stop the rest of the time there and there was not one orb to be seen again. I also took many pictures with the Casio camera I had mentioned earlier and did not get one orb. So getting back to the lastest picture of Our Lady at St. Anthony’s. That picture you see there was shot with the Casio. I took many shots that day but that was the one and only orb that day.
I have to agree with J. Hoffman: If this is the devil's work, then the devil won't be in business much longer. That’s what I have been saying all along after visiting this wonderful place that people are coming to and praying. I don’t know what Mr. Devil could be up to leading us into feeling closer in our faith and praying. What harm could come from that. I’ll take my chances in BELIEVING.
Thanks Rocco
That's a really interesting photo.
Rocco, Thanks for sharing with us.
I don't doubt Our Lady of America is using you in some way.
I am very happy to see the orb in the picture. Our Lady has an escort traveling with her. I hope to go back to Rome City soon. It is time to take some more pictures. I am so honored to have some of my earlier photos posted on this website. The orbs are definately there in Rome City. They are calling me back.

Is anything new going on?
No posts for quite some time and nothing new out of the Fostoria group.
Can anybody weigh in or is everyone still suffering turkey hangovers?

I've been wondering about new posts too. Like babygumbo, I'm feeling the need to go back to Rome City. I have heard a new post is coming. Please pray for the preservation of this Holy ground. Pulled up a picture of the chapel, circa 1950's from the archives- how Beautiful!
May the Bishop change his stance on sacramental services soon, so that Mass reconciliation etc. may be included with the Friday night rosary. May Our Lady's requests be fulfilled! Thanks to the owners for all their sacrifices to preserve Rome City!
POUND THE HILL!
May God bless us and Mary keep us,
