Celebrate the Presentation of Mary At The USA's Only Approved Marian Apparition
November 21st is the Presentation of Mary, so let us celebrate by saying a Rosary and visiting the only approved Marian apparition in the U.S.A.: Our Lady of Champion.
Our Lady of Champion refers to the Marian apparition in 1859 in Champion, Wisconsin when the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to a Belgian immigrant while walking in the woods. During the apparitions, Mary instructed Adele to teach children their faith and offer prayers for sinners' conversions. Adele faithfully carried out this mission, teaching catechism and establishing a school.
In 2010, the Diocese of Green Bay officially approved the apparitions, making it the only Church-approved Marian apparition in the United States. The site, now known as the National Shrine of Our Lady of Champion, continues to be a place of pilgrimage, where people come to pray, seek healing, and honor the message of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
