Who is therese neumann

Padre Pio and also Therese Neumann. It is wonderful to hear of the extraordinary healing that your wife received through the intercession of St Padre Pio. St Pio is certainly one of the greatest mystics of all time--as you know he is the only Priest to have borne the Stigmata except perhaps for the Apostle Paul.

What an extraordinary Saint he is-- He is greatly loved by the faithful throughout the world. God only knows how many graces he obtained for the Church that is all of us throughout his 50 years of suffering with the stigmata. Thanks once again for sharing a bit of your journey with us. May God bless you and yours, Glenn Dallaire. Thank you so very much for this amazing blog. I grew up in the Catholic faith, taught throughout my childhood by impovershed Irish nuns, and I will never grow tired of learning more and more.

I grow spiritually every day that I am alive, and reading your articles have made me so happy. I will continue to read on daily. Blessings, Deb. Hi Deb, Thanks so much for your kind comments. I am glad to hear that you are enjoying the website. I plan on adding a few new articles in the upcoming days and weeks.

May God bless you and yours! This article was great. My grandmother just gave it to me so I was interested in getting more information on her.

I am so very grateful to have had a person unexpectedly send me this website on Mystics of the Church. Only 2 days ago I had a longing to be able to read Spiritual and helpful matters, and Lo! God sent it to me. Praise and Thanks be to God. Hi Norma, I am really happy to hear that you are enjoying this blog.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions! May God bless you and your loved ones, Glenn. Thank you very much for posting articles on saints. It is really so inspiring to read how they have suffered great pains in their lives for the love of Jesus and Mary. It makes us think twice before we commit a sin and do something wrong. Please keep posting articles to bring us back closer to the LORD. Hi Steve, It is nice to meet you. About your question, well, I have the 2 books listed in the article above on Therese Neumann and I definitely don't recall reading that quoteI am pretty sure that quote would have struck me, and I would have remembered it, if it was in either of these books.

Perhaps she did say it, but I have never come across it in print to the best of my knowledge. May God bless you and your loved ones. Glenn Dallaire. My recollection is that because of America's mercy and generosity, she would not suffer a war on her own soil but but would suffer natural disasters and economic collapse due to sins of impurity. Unfortunately, I cannot recall who said this! But, it is something I have always remembered and taken some comfort in.

I would love to find out about who said this and if it was a valid source. I'm very blessed to have inherited a beautiful hand-carved wooden cross presented to my husband's great aunt by Therese Neumann in the late 50's. I cherish it more now after reading this account of her life! Thank you for posting the life St.

Therese Neumann I thank God for reading this because it gives me enough strenght in my faith and once more realized that with God all things are possible With God's Love, Theresa.

Thank you for this wonderful site. I was at her bedside at pm in She was truly suffering, but the main thing I will carry until my death is the look in her eyes of total love and total pain. She told me that day, "You will suffer much for the honor and glory of God. All of your story is true. I might add a few things that I know. They found the lovely church across from her family home filled with bathroom fixtures and other things placed there by Hitler's orders. Since many people in Konnersreuth at that time did not have such luxuries..

They cleaned up the church so that the villagers could attend Mass. They loved Therese Neumann and as a special gift one day brought her a horse. She adored that horse and was so grateful. Six years ago, my daughter Karen took me back to Konnersreuth and we were met by Therese Neumann's niece. I have become good friends with two of her nieces through the years.

We visited inside the family home and I could tell them how the backyard looked in I visited again in the same bedroom and stood where I received that long ago message. We saw the Cemetery where she is buried and also went inside the lovely church. There is a chair behind the altar where Therese sat during Mass out of the view of people.

You can still see all the blood stains from those years. And now, her "cause" is in Rome. The German people await, many elderly still living in Konnersreuth and many like me If so, and I am still on this earth, I will be there and one of the happiest to attend!!! Oh, Therese's nickname is "Resl"..

Thank you once again for sharing all this information. My email address is sylviadody aol. Hi Sylvia Smith, It is nice to meet you! Thank you so much for your very interesting and enlightening comments concerning Therese Newmann and your meeting with her on Good Friday in which by the way in that year would have been March 27, --it is really special to hear from someone who met Therese during her lifetime.

And I wholeheartedly join you in praying that Therese Neumann may be raised to the altars as a canonised Saint, if such would be God's holy will. Thanks again for your comments and may God bless you and your loved ones! Did the local bishop ever make a pronouncement on her authenticity? Disturbing and scandalous documented evidence against her. Hi Anonymous, Thanks for your comments.

Thus she is currently considered a "Servant of God" by the Catholic church. When one studies the lives of the mystics, one of the first things one will discover is the strong opposition of numerous persons from within and outside the Church. The same goes for Marian apparitions. This is simply part and parcel with mystics and visionaries. And stigmatics such as Therese Neumann, St.

Padre Pio, St Gemma Galgani etc are are especially scrutinized by skeptics, so it is really no surprise that some persons have their doubts concerning Therese.

In fact, this is understandable and is completely normal. Thanks again for your comments. May God bless you and your loved ones, Glenn Dallaire. How incredible for Therese Neumann to be without any food or drink, other than the Sacred Host, from September of ,until her death on September 18th, ; that is approximately 36 years.

I am a teacher in a Catholic High School. Each year while teaching the Sacrament of Eucharist I tell the students in my classes about a few Eucharistic miracles. The story of Therese Neumann is one of those. It is such a wonderful story of true divine love. I know it has left a few students in awe of how God touches our lives. Keep up the great work. There are many years that I know about Therese Neumman.

There you can read some statements about Therese and the Nazis. In page 15 it's stated: "While Therese Neumann was in ecstasy, in a state or the physical senses are abolished, a visitor had the idea to put her hands on a postcard representing Hitler. She rejected the photo, as if this contact was burning, and cried, horrified: "Smoke and fire of hell!

Someday the regime will be swept away, his fall will be so inevitable as spectacular. I am sure to read it in Paris-Soir and I did not believed it. I put the article on behalf of our propaganda French In the last chapter of the the book, it is stated that when Hitler realized about the defeat in the war, all the astrological predictions failed etc.. S to Konnesreuth to catch her. She must have heaven power! Hitler repected her but asked to kill two of the close friends of Therese: M.

Gerlich and Mr. Therese had a divine warning and she was hidden in a cave. The S. It was only 5 days before the end of the war. My question is: Do you know if this story is true? I cannot find it in any other reference. God bless you! Her deeds of charity and kindness were endless. It was not unusual for Therese to spend all night arranging flowers for the altars or cleaning the village church.

She received prayer requests from all over the world and served as the instrument for hundreds of miraculous cures. She was particularly sympathetic to would-be suicides and others in despair.

During the last years of her life, the Friday visions gradually decreased until they occurred only monthly, on the first Friday. On September 18, , at age 64, Therese died from cardiac arrest.

Five days after her passing the doctors declared her body to be fresh and supple with no signs of decay. God bless Master Yogananda and his wonderful insight! Suchlovestillexists prayed here Spiritsgrandjunction.

As applicable to us now as it was then — the divine inspiration — am re-reading Autobiography of a Yogi after many years and from Chapter 3 was drawn to look up Therese of Neumann. I feel blessed to have stumbled across this today — such a gift.

Thank you for this detailed article. Nakin, thanks for all this research and fine compilation. I decided to share stories on Terese for our Berkeley group and was searching online for articles. Yours was the best and most complete of all! Bless you. Your email address will not be published.

November 24, Access through your institution. Add or change institution. February 16, was a new decisive turning point in Therese's life. She fell ill again, in addition, an ear abscess developed, and at times bloody water and pus trickled out of her eyes. Often the pain gave her sleepless nights, i. Suddenly, she had a vision. She saw Jesus kneeling in the Garden of Gethsemane. At the same time, she experienced a pain on the left side of her breast, of such intensity that she thought she would die.

Then blood started to run down from this place. The trickling of blood lasted until the next midday. The other signs of illness remained. The ear abscess broke open on Holy Saturday, but she was bedridden until On the night of Thursday she had a second vision - substantially the same, yet extended by the scene of the scourging of Jesus.

On the following Friday, March 19, , she saw also the crown of thorns put on, and on Friday, March 26, , the carrying of the Cross and the fall under the Cross.

The visions were accompanied by blood-wounds, which appeared not only in the heart area, but by the end of the year, in all places of the wounds of Christ, the Stigmata.

Therese had this vision of the Passion again and again until her death, during 36 years each time in over 30 separate visions every Friday, except on those Fridays from Christmas to Lent, Easter to the Feast of the Sacred Heart and on any Fridays which coincided with a high feast or an octave of a feast.

During her visions, her eyes, heart and head bled; during Lent, her hands, feet, knees and right shoulder also bled The Stigmata on her heart, hands and feet stayed visible, but never became inflamed or festering All these occurrences around Therese could not be kept in a private sphere.

The interest of the public was aroused. Especially on Fridays, large crowds of visitors would come. The Bishop of Regensburg, Antonius von Henle, had been very cautious concerning the occurrences in Konnersreuth.

Public discussions got stormier all the time, so the Bavarian Conference of Bishops decided to get a scientific basis for the philosophical-theological examination of the phenomenon. By order of the Diocesan Authorities, Therese had to undergo medical observation from July 14 - 28, , headed by Dr. Seidl from Waldsassen and Prof. Ewald from Erlangen. Especially the phenomenon of living without taking any food should be watched and scrutinized by checking her weight, temperature, pulse frequency, and laboratory examinations of her secretions and blood.

Four sworn in nurses watched over Therese around the clock, following strict orders of the two Doctors. To check the process, the Doctors themselves came in from time to time, without prior notice.
