Apparitions of Our Blessed Mother Mary

Painting of Mary

Our Blessed Mother Mary. The chosen mother of God. Known by more than 40 names to which her most common include: "The Virgin Mary," "The Lady of the Rosary," "The Immaculate Conception," "The Mother of God," and "The Queen of Peace." She is the woman who was summoned by the Archangel Gabriel for the purpose of obtaining her approval to accept God's chosen plan for her: To conceive and give birth to a boy named, Jesus, or "Yeshua", as he would have been called in his native Aramaic language. This meeting between Gabriel and Mary is referred to as "the annunciation." The decision to give her approval represents the beginning of the events leading up to the start of the new covenant between God and his people. Following the annunciation, Jesus was conceived by immaculate conception through the Holy Spirit, directly into her womb. A difficult concept for some to believe is that Jesus, then, is an entity that is both divine (the Son of God) and human (the son of Mary), simultaneously.

Taking a closer look at the annunciation as written in the Gospel of Luke (1:26-38): 26 In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, 27 to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. 28 The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.” 29 Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. 30 But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. 31 You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus. 32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, 33 and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.” 34 “How will this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?” 35 The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called[a] the Son of God. 36 Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her old age, and she who was said to be unable to conceive is in her sixth month. 37 For no word from God will ever fail.” 38 “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Then the angel left her.

As eluded to in the two maps above, the new convenant began following the passion of Jesus, which ended in his crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension into heaven. It is a common misconception, even among Christians, that humanity would no longer have the opportunity to interact with either Jesus or our Blessed Mother (following her eventual assumption into heaven). However, unbeknownst to many of us, this is actually not the case. There are individuals throughout history, in fact MANY individuals, who have seen and/or heard the voice ("locution") and experienced apparitions with our Blessed Mother and our Lord Jesus Christ. For the purpose of this webpage, the focus will be Marian apparitions. If you would like to learn more about interactions with Jesus, see my UPCOMING WEBPAGE.

In fact, daily apparitions of Our Blessed Mother continue to this day in a small town in Bosnia-Herzegovina called Medjugorje. I know what you are wondering...why, if this is happening, have I not heard of it?! Something of such importance, involving the very reason for our being, surely should be attentively broadcast around the world! At least, that is what one might expect.

This is where the reason for this webpage comes in. My name is Victor and I intend to reach as many people as I am able, to spread the news. To begin, it might be best to provide you with an understanding of the frequency of apparitions which have occurred over the past millennia. Take a look at the maps above to give you a better picture of how many claims of interactions there are.

After studying these maps, I am guessing that many readers might be tempted to click to the next website because you are thinking "this can't be true!" Or, "Where's the proof?!" Well, for you readers of little faith, this website is presented just for you. Please click on the link below to move to the next webpage.
