3 Marian Apparitions You Should Know About
You’ve most likely heard about the Marian apparitions at Lourdes, Knock, and Fatima, but did you know that Mary has been known to appear many times throughout the world? The Blessed Mother has made herself present to people young and old and each time she has reiterated a similar message to pray the rosary.
3 Times Mary Appeared And Asked Us To Pray The Rosary
These apparitions have all been approved by the Catholic Church.
Our Lady of Akita (Japan) These apparitions began on July 6th, 1973, when Sr. Agnes Sasagawa heard a voice coming from the statue of Mary in the chapel where she was praying. Over the course of two years, Sr. Agnes heard three messages from the Blessed Mother and had several visions. On January 4, 1975, the statue of the Blessed Virgin began to weep and continued at various intervals for the next 6 years for a total of 101 times.
-Mary’s Message: “The only arms which will remain for you will be the Rosary and the Sign left by My Son. Each day recite the prayers of the Rosary. With the Rosary, pray for the Pope, the bishops and priests."
Our Lady of Kibeho (Rwanda) The encounters with Our Blessed Mother in this small African village began on November 28, 1981, when 16-year-old Alphonsine Mumureke heard a voice call out to her and saw a great cloud of light while in her school cafeteria. Visions and messages continued for two years for Alphonsine and her classmates Nathalie Mukamazimpaka and Marie Claire Mukangango.
Mary’s Message: “Repent, repent, repent! When I tell you this, I speak also to all the others. Men of our times have emptied each thing of its true meaning. They commit a fault don’t recognize that he did wrong. Meditate about the Passion of Jesus, and on the deep Sorrows of His Mother. Recite the Rosary every day, and also the Rosary of the Seven Sorrows of Mary, to obtain the favor of repentance.”
Our Lady of the Rosary (San Nicolas, Argentina) A humble housewife and mother, Gladys Herminia Quiroga de Motta first noticed that her rosary beads were glowing on September 25, 1983. The visions that began on that day continued until February 11, 1990, the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes. Gladys received more than 1,800 messages from the Virgin Mary, as well as 68 from Jesus, and bore the stigmata.
Mary’s Message: “Prayer, my daughter, prayer; how many mouths still remain closed, without saying at least a prayer that draws them nearer to the Lord. The Holy Rosary is the weapon to which the enemy fears the most; it is also the refuge of those who look for lightening their grief and it is the door to enter to My Heart. Glory to the Lord for the Light that He gives to the world."
