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
