Ancient Marian Apparition: Our Lady and St. John Appear to St. Gregory Thaumaturgus (200s) | Ep. 70

CULTIVATING SAINTS, SAGES, AND STATESMEN THROUGH THE GREAT TRADITION OF CHRISTENDOMIn this episode, we cover an incredible apparition of Our Lady and St. John—the most ancient recorded in the writings of the Church Fathers—to St. Gregory Thaumaturgus, a great Church Father and bishop of the ancient Catholic Church. When he asked for wisdom to better understand the Catholic Faith and defend it against heretics, they appeared and provided him a completely orthodox confession of faith almost a century before the first Ecumenical Council of Nicaea.Yet more ancient evidence that Our Lady has offered Her motherly love and guidance to the Church since ancient times!VISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://eternalchristendom.com/BECOME A PATRON OF THE GREAT TRADITIONAs a non-profit, you can support our mission with a tax-deductible gift.
