Dear Friends of Dory Tan,
This letter is in
response to the video on youtube put out by Yaphet Kotto, a coloured actor
that visited the Greenside's Farm in Marmora several years ago.
While Mr. Kotto was at the farm he brought with him a person to film
the events of September 8th, Our Blessed Mother's Birthday.
I am a member of
the Ave Maria Padre Pio Prayer Group with Dory
Tan. I have been going to Marmora on First Saturdays and Special Feast
Days now for twelve years and I was also present at the Greenside's Farm on
September 8th, when Yaphet Kotto
was making this film. I'm not sure why after all these years he has
decided to put this out on youtube.
It was very
disturbing to me when I watched the vignette of small videos that Mr. Kotto put together as he narrated each one with many lies
about Dory.
In one video it
shows Dory praying with a woman. While Dory was praying for this woman
she fell over. Yaphet Kotto
then suggests that Dory has staged this by praying over a member of her group.
I can tell you
that this woman is not, nor ever was a member of our prayer group. When
Dory prays for someone she has no idea if that person will become slain in the
spirit. That is a personal thing that happens within an individual.
Another thing that
Mr. Kotto plays up is that Mrs. Greenside had asked
Dory not to light candles at the Tenth Station. She was afraid of a fire
breaking out because of the dry conditions that summer. He said that Shelagh and Dory were fighting about this. It is
true, Dory was very hurt and disappointed that day that she could not follow
the request from Our Blessed Mother to light candles, but she honoured what
Mrs. Greenside had asked of her and she did not light the candles.
Dory has been
going to the farm in Marmora since 1992 until present time and she has the
utmost love and respect for Shelagh and all the
Greenside Family.
He also makes
reference to the book that Dory was selling back then at the farm. This
book tells the story of how Dory and members of the group began coming to
Marmora. It also contains the early messages given to Dory at the farm
from Our Blessed Mother. Mr. Kotto said that
Dory was making a profit off this book. What he doesn't know is that any
proceeds made from selling this book went to the
Yaphet Kotto also suggests that because Dory was crying when Our
Blessed Mother was speaking to her, that Our Blessed Mother has a warning for
us that the world is ending. He has even titled his video; Marmora
2012, The Last Warning. Dory has never given us this kind of message from
Our Blessed Mother.
He also said that
Dory has so many body guards that people can not get near her, yet in his video
it clearly shows people coming up to Dory and Dory hugging them. There
are no body guards.
I have talked to
Dory about these videos and she said she is not hurt by this because Jesus and
Our Blessed Mother know the truth. Her only concern is that she does not want
people to be confused. She would like people to know that what Yaphet Kotto is saying about her
is not true. Dory said she will continue to pray for him.
I hope this letter
will help clear up any confusion that these videos have caused.
God bless,
Janice Schill
