Talk:Our Lady of America
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] History
This is a quote from the letter by Archbishop Burke which gives the background of Sister Mary Ephrem (baptized Mildred) Neuzil who received the apparition. If you have a suggestion for improving the section, please offer one. I wish to avoid WP:OR, so a better WP:RS than the one I have used would be such an improvement. patsw (talk) 02:55, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
- While "The devotion to Our Lady of America has its source in private revelations to Sister Mary Ephrem (baptized Mildred) Neuzil," is clearly related to the topic and arguments could be made about "who was born in 1916 and was professed, in 1933, in the Congregation of the Sisters of the Most Precious Blood of Jesus," there is nothing in the remainder of the section "which has its generalate in Dayton, Ohio. She later became part of a contemplative branch of the same congregation. The contemplative branch was located at Our Lady of the Nativity Convent at New Riegel, Ohio. After the suppression of the contemplative branch in 1979, the Sisters who were members took up residence in Seneca County, Ohio. From the time of the suppression, Sister Mary Ephrem used her baptismal name, Sister Mary Mildred Neuzil. Sister Mary Ephrem (Mary Mildred) died in 2000. One of the Sisters survives and continues to live in Seneca County, Ohio." which would seem even remotely applicable to the purported subject of this article (Our Lady of America), and therefore {off topic}. If Mary Ephram claims visions began in response to the suppression of the Order or something similar, you need to find reliable sources that make that claim. But currently nothing about the order ties it to OLoA and it needs to go.TheRedPenOfDoom (talk) 03:14, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
