I read the story of two English school teachers that visited Versailles and experienced a time slip. An English couple and friends went on holiday to Spain & France. They stayed in a hotel/inn that completely disappeared when they backtracked. None of the pictures taken were captured. The dress of the police in the hotel/inn and inn keepers were from the 19th century. What is this phenomenon? What is its purpose? What is God saying?

Do you have a story from a reputable source? Otherwise, this goes in the “never happened” bin.
 
If it happened in 1901 then naturally everybody’s clothing would have been “from the 19th century” since the 19th century had only ended 2 years previous, and I doubt the fashion had changed much.
 
Well, The Moberly–Jourdain incident is very well documented. They were female educators with no reason to lie. It’s pretty famous.
 
You’re confusing the two incidents. The school teachers at Versailles lived in Edwardian England, but caught a glimpse of Versailles from the 18th century. They were on holiday in France.

Because it’s my topic. I find it interesting and you don’t have to read or comment! Please don’t comment!

Assume the incidents are real. What does it say about time? God is out of time. Everything happens at once.
 
I guess I just take it on faith because there is so much unexplained phenomenon. The universe is mysterious. Time links and separates us.
 
Maybe they’re slipping between parallel universes.

Sometimes I wonder: what if I died but didn’t know it? What if I were killed in a car crash yesterday and my consciousness slipped into a parallel universe where my life is continuing uninterrupted, while I’m being mourned in the universe I just left? What if this happens over and over again but none of us never knows it’s happening?

This is contrary to Catholic teaching. When you die, you will meet God and be judged. He’s not going to play a guessing game with you about this stuff. If you are somehow sent somewhere like back to Earth to serve your purgatory, you will know that’s what’s happening.

I believe in the Eucharist. Others more learned than me think that’s unreasonable. The universe is mysterious. God is more powerful and wonderful than we can imagine. Perhaps these things happen occasionally to remind us that not only things we see exist around us.

And yet, there are reasonable arguments for it. In particular, the God-man said, “this is my body.”

These are both true! And yet neither of these statements supports the claim that people have traveled through time. Saying “God can do anything” is not proof that any particular thing occurred. I could tell you right now that I am strong enough to pick up 37 elephants with my little finger and, by the logic you’ve used in this thread, you’d have to believe me. After all, the universe is mysterious, God is powerful and wonderful, and I have no reason to lie about it (or at least no more reason than the people in your stories).
 
There are people that don’t believe in God using the same arguments that you’ve used to discount another person’s belief that they briefly experienced a time slip. Personally, I think time slips are a matter of physics, yet understood.
