Our Lady of Guadalupe helped me to understand the Catholic devotion to the Blessed Virgin, and helped to foster a great love for my earthly mother.


Our Lady of Fatima is my favorite apparition picture

Our Lady of Mount Carmel is my favorite religious (monastic) apparition.

my favorite statue is one of Fatima where she has her hands out and is much younger than the others. she has wavy/curly hair and is usually an unpainted grey. haven't located her online but have seen her at only two local places.


i haven't been able to find one of her in army boots..

Saint Therese

[quote name='tinytherese' post='1660349' date='Sep 20 2008, 11:02 PM']My favorite is Guadalupe, how Our Lady brought peace, unity, conversion, hope, and even became the patron saint of protecting the unborn. :bigclap:[/quote]

My favorite is Lourdes, but there's a cool one in Africa, Ngome.

Lourdes!
The Archbishop of Canterbury recently authenticated the Lourdes apparitions after a visit. This is extremely significant because he is in a backhanded way approving the doctrine of the Imaculate Conception, which Anglicans are free to accept or reject according to their own reason. However, most Anglo-catholics, including Mr. Williams, already accept the doctrine. The implications are huge, however, as IC and Papal infallibility often get lumped together in objections to Catholic (big C) doctrine.
Exciting times!
