Our Lady's Alleged Apparitions in Ukraine: Her Forgotten 20th-C. Prophesies
Did you know Our Lady allegedly appeared in Ukraine?
In 1914 and again in 1987, Our Lady allegedly appeared in the village of Hrushiv, Ukraine. The first alleged apparition occurred on May 12, 1914, just before World War I broke out.
Our Lady appeared to 22 people working the fields near the church of the Holy Trinity in Hrushiv, Ukraine.
This was Our Lady's first alleged message in 1914:
“There will be a war. Russia will become a godless country. Ukraine, as a nation, will suffer terribly for 80 years – and will have to live through the world wars, but will be free afterwards.”
Ukraine suffered under the KGB terror for almost 80 years. They became independent on Aug. 24, 1991.
The second alleged apparition occurred in 1987 to 12-year-old Maria Kyzin, also in Hrushiv.
Because the 1914 prophesy was fulfilled, Canadian priest Father Mark Goring explained that the Catholic Church takes the alleged 1987 apparitions seriously.
Our Lady appeared on April 27, 1987 – exactly one year after the Chernobyl disaster. Approximately 500,000 people supposedly witnessed these apparitions, including the KGB soldiers!
Here are some quotes from the alleged 1987 apparitions of Our Lady in Ukraine:
“I have come on purpose to thank the Ukrainian people because you have suffered most for the church of Christ in the last 70 years,” Our Lady said.
“I have come to comfort you and to tell you that your suffering will soon come to an end. Ukraine will become an independent state.”
“Do not forget those who have died in the Chernobyl disaster. Chernobyl is a reminder and a sign for the whole world.”
“Forgive your enemies. Through you and the blood of martyrs will come the conversion of Russia. Repent and love one another. The times are coming which have been foretold as being those in the end times.
“See the desolation which surrounds the world…the sin, the sloth, the genocide. Pray for Russia. Oppression and wars continue to occupy the minds and hearts of many people. Russia, despite everything, continues to deny my Son. Russia rejects real life and continues to live in darkness. If there is not a return to Christianity in Russia, there will be a Third World War; the whole world will face ruin.”
“Teach the children to pray. Teach them to live in truth and live yourselves in truth. Say the Rosary. It is the weapon against Satan. He fears the Rosary. Recite the Rosary at any gathering of people.”

Father Goring also posted this video about the Madonna of Kiev, which connects to the apparitions in Ukraine. Catholics understand this famous image as Our Lady of Tenderness.
