    About this ebook

    Mary’s appearance to 5 children in Beauraing, Belgium, in November and December of 1932 has always fascinated us. There are so many aspects of the visit from Our Heavenly Lady that we don’t quite understand. But we know there was a need for Mary to come to our aid in this place at this time. Nothing is by coincidence with her. Every time she comes to us in an apparition, she has to upset the balance of nature, break through the dimension separating Heaven and earth, just to make contact with us. Then she has to condition the minds of the seers and us, the people for whom she comes to earth, to accept the supernatural, that which cannot be explained.
    She knows that a battle will ensue between the power of light and the power of darkness, which has to cause her some anguish. There are so many who won’t believe that she has actually come. The authenticity and sincerity of the visionaries is always seriously questioned. They receive no support from the Church. Actually, because the Church has to take on the role of Devil’s Advocate, it becomes the most difficult obstacle to overcome. Also, she never picks anyone whom we would expect to be the natural choice. Would we doubt an apparition by Our Lady to Mother Teresa, or Pope John Paul II? But that would be too easy. There’s no challenge to our faith in that.
    Mary appeared to five children almost every day, sometimes two and three times a day, for over a month. There were 33 apparitionsin all. The bulk of her message was very little. People constantly tried to build things into each of the messages, but the children were firm that the short two and three word messages were all that had been given to them. Her message was strong, but the words were few. We had to strain our spiritual consciousness to grasp the meaning of her words. There was nothing really to grab onto. In many claimed apparitions of Our Lady in this century, she reportedly goes on and on for volumes, talking to the allegedvisionary. Yet in this apparition, approved by the Church, she gave us little gems to ponder on.
