The Conyers Story Part II

By Judith Child

In 1983, Nancy Fowler, a housewife now living in Conyers, Georgia began having mystical experiences. This is the second volume in a series to be published that concern these Heavenly visitations. The first volume contains detailed information about the apparitions and messages of Jesus, the Living Son of God from 1987 through May of 1991. Volume One is now in the fourth printing and has helped thousands of people change their spiritual lives.

Ten years ago, Nancy Fowler was an ordinary housewife with a husband and a three year old son. She had a responsible job as a Registered Nurse, and was respected member of the community. However, she did not think much about God although she attended Sunday Mass regularly. Then Nancy accepted a nursing job with increased professional recognition and pay. Her new schedule was 7 a.m. through 7 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday. This meant she was unable to fulfil her obligation of Sunday Mass. "I tell people of these experiences," Nancy says, "because I want them to understand how easy it is to slip from the Kingdom of Light into the Kingdom of Darkness." Shortly after starting her weekend job, the Lord allowed her to be harassed by demons. This was the beginning of the Lord's teachings on the importance of the Ten Commandments in the life of ordinary men and women. The Ten Commandments now form the basis of the Conyers' message. The Lord has given Nancy teachings on all the Commandments and they are available in a small booklet. (see page 122)

One of her earlier experiences with demons caused her to doubt her sanity. They took place late one night when she had put out the light to go to sleep. She saw thousands upon thousands of menacing eyes, shining in the darkness, looking down at her from the ceiling. Greatly disturbed, she shook her husband and asked if he could see them. He couldn't.

Thus began months of sleepless nights and fear-filled days. She would see the spirit forms like dark shadows in half-animal and half-human shapes floating past her. At other times they would appear as silhouettes on walls. Struggling to deal with her affliction, Nancy searched for help. She talked to a priest of the Roman Catholic Church who told her that what she was seeing was not reality. Yet, while he was speaking to her, she could see the demon forms silhouetted on the wall. She then sought information and aid outside the Church but to no avail. Finally, she went to Confession and gave up the weekend job and resumed attending Mass on Sundays. It was then that she found relief. However, the harassment did continue to some extent. Eventually she found a priest who told her to send the demons away in the Name of Jesus. "His Name was the only thing that worked," she says. Then she also began praying.

"Although I went to Sunday Mass, I didn't really pray. I didn't spend time with God. We all need to be still and quiet with Him and reflect upon Him. The evil one wants us to forget Him and keep us too busy to have time for God. I was only praying out of fear, not out of love."

Then one night Nancy was awakened by a cross of white light on the ceiling. "I was not terrorized by this light. I had peace. A voice spoke to me and said, 'You are a prophet. Open the Bible.' I randomly opened it to Jeremiah 1:5 and immediately light illumined the words, 'The Lord said to me, I chose you before I gave you life, and before you were born I selected you to be a prophet to the nations.'" Nancy doubted the validity of this but three times the passage in the Bible was illuminated. When it dawned on her that the message was true and all doubt left her, the Cross of Light vanished.

Nancy pondered these events for some time. Then one Saturday, as she went to her bedroom to put away laundry, she was brought to her knees. She saw three crosses of white light against the far wall. Nancy was pushed to her knees by an invisible force. A voice told her to get the Bible. While still on her knees she reached for her Bible. She randomly opened it and read. The words filled her with fear. They described a punishment.

All day she went around doing her chores, but her mind kept thinking of the words she had been shown. She began to think that perhaps they were meant for her and the Lord had not forgiven her for breaking the Third Commandment, Remember that thou keep holy the sabbath day.

Later that evening, still feeling heavy with guilt, she went to her bedroom. There were the three crosses again. This time the middle one was larger than the others. She was told that the punishment was not for her but for the world. And she knew it was a Secret.

From then on, Nancy heard a voice talking to her, sometimes words were implanted in her mind. "I now know it was the Lord speaking to me. He has shown me how the Holy Spirit can inspire one and He has told me 'Your thoughts are Mine', but at that time, I didn't understand and I thought I was going crazy."

"One day, I was driving past a church and was told to go to Mass. But I was too casually dressed so I ignored the suggestion. When I returned for the five o'clock Mass, the church was locked and the parking lot empty. I said to the Lord, 'Why didn't you tell me?' He replied, 'My way is perfect, yours is not.' I knew then that it was indeed the Lord who had been telling me to go to church earlier in the day.

"We need to listen to the promptings of the Holy Spirit. We need to invite Him into our lives and become close to Him. He is the Third Person of the Holy Trinity. He is there to guide us. He manifests Himself to us in so many ways - through tears, through gentle inspirations such as prompting us to call someone to ask how they are, through heat, through chills like goose bumps. I always experience love, profound overwhelming love, and this makes me aware of the immense, almighty Presence of God."

In the mid-eighties, the Lord caught Nancy in a white lie. She was pressured by a gossipy neighbor who was wanting to know intimate details of Nancy's life. "Instead of telling her the truth that I didn't want to answer her, I stretched the truth. Later, in prayer, I told Jesus how much I loved Him. And He said, 'If you love Me, keep My commandments.' I was hurting the Lord. He was talking to me and I didn't know it. I was too concerned about myself."

Finally one day in prayer, Nancy said to the Lord, "You don't tell anyone about this (her mystical experiences) and I won't either and I'll see You later." With that, Nancy quit praying, hoping that the mystical experiences would not resume. She was running from the Lord. She was afraid to speak about things that other people didn't see. At that time she was getting ready to move out of state and she thought the Lord would forget all about it. But the Lord was still calling. In February of 1987, full of despair and not wanting to live, feeling like there was no hope, He appeared to her in a full length but silent apparition which heralded the beginning of the Conyers experiences.

In October of 1987, Nancy went on a pilgrimage to Medjugorje, Yugoslavia. While there, Nancy climbed Mt. Krizevac with other pilgrims in her group. She was still exhausted by the climb when the time came for her to descend with the group. As Nancy sat on a rock, she heard a deep voice, like the whole heavens speaking, which said, "I have not dismissed you from the mountain top". Nancy thought everyone heard the voice but she was the only one. Shaken, she excused herself from the group and remained, kneeling in prayer. The voice continued, "You are a prophet. I have chosen you before you were born. My prophets speak the words that I give them. It is necessary that you be completely obedient to Me. I have called you to holiness. Be a good wife and mother and pray devoutly. I will show My people that holiness is for everyone in all walks of life. Now say the Our Father and Hail Mary in honor of My Mother."

Since those early days, Nancy's mission has become public. In 1990, the Blessed Mother told her She would begin appearing monthly to give a message to her children of America. By early in 1991, about sixty people were gathering each month at Nancy's home for the apparitions on the 13th. During August of 1991, the numbers of pilgrims had grown to the point where the County was not going to allow the pilgrims to continue to gather on Nancy's property because of zoning rules. Four months earlier, Jesus expressed His desire to Nancy that a small farm nearby be purchased. In an act of faith confirmed by mystical signs, a pilgrim couple purchased the property in the early summer for the Blessed Mother and Jesus. During the Summer, many volunteers helped repair and cleanup the property. In September 1991, the Blessed Mother began to appear at The Farm on the 13th of each month. Now many thousands gather each month at The Farm which is around the corner from Nancy's home.

Hotel accommodations in Conyers are booked up months in advance. And, once a month on the 13th, hundreds and now in June 1992, thousands of cars, numerous busses, and over twelve thousand people throng the narrow country roads at the apparition site.

Many, many people have experienced real spiritual conversions through the apparitions, the messages and the graces given by Our Lord and the Blessed Virgin at Conyers. When they read the Words of her Son, Jesus, the Living Son of God, they realize that God loves them and cares for them and they begin amending their lives. The Blessed Virgin Mary is the Mother of God and is our Mother who is a messenger sent to us to deliver the Words of her Son. Perhaps as encouragement, many people also experience miraculous events at Conyers and many healings have been reported with some in process of being medically validated.

Nancy, and the volunteers who help her, work hard to make the Conyers experience as rewarding as possible. Nurses donate their time to help with any emergencies, young people stroll around giving out the prayer sheets to be used, others help with the setting up of the PA system, yet others with the parking and still others give out the books concerning the messages and teachings of Our Lord and Our Loving Mother.

All God's children are invited to visit Conyers and to pray any day on the Holy Hill behind Nancy's house where there is a stone altar in the shape of a cross. Jesus has said to Nancy, "I solemnly tell you, who comes to the altar with faith, I will pour forth My graces. Oh, what gifts they will walk away with." Jesus is waiting for all of us. He calls us and tells Nancy that, "I do not appear like this anywhere else on earth... I am giving the greatest graces here outside of My Mass. Nowhere are My graces being poured forth like they are here." Jesus is appearing everyday to Nancy and the graces given there are abundant. He and His Mother are calling everyone to listen to His Commandments and keep them. Jesus asks us to grow in love, to love Him and each other. Only in this way, we can be happy with God forever.
