APPARITIONS OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
The information pages in the links here are just summaries of some of the popular apparitions. For more detailed information, see the Catholic Apparitions of Jesus and Mary web site.

St. Maximilian Kolbe
When St. Max was a young man, he was praying before a statue of Mary when she appeared to him handing him two crowns. A red crown represented martyrdom, a white crown represented purity. She asked him which he would take, he replied that he would take both and so it happened.

Fatima
In Fatima, Portugal, Mary appeared to three little children: Francisco, Jacinta, and Lucia.

Lourdes
Mary appeared to a 14-year-old girl in France, Bernadette Soubirous. In this apparation, Mary revealed herself to Bernadette as the "Immaculado Conceptiou," the Immaculate Conception. [link]

Guadalupe
In Guadalupe, Mexico, the Blessed Mother appeared to Juan Diego, an Aztec Indian who had converted to Christianity. She left to us the beautiful tilma with Her image on it. [link]

LaSalette
In LaSalette, France, the Blessed Mother appeared to two children on a mountain, telling them to pray, return to Mass, and observe the Sabbath day. The missionaries of Our Lady of LaSalette continue to announce this message to the world today. [link]

Medjugorje
The Blessed Mother is reported as appearing in Medjugorje currently. These alleged apparitions have been investigated by the Church and the Church currently holds a neutral position on these apparitions. As with any apparition that is pending approval or disapproval, this apparition is very controversial. The Church maintains its neutral but cautious approach while dealing with this apparition. KolbeNet presents the information so that you will have continuing and updated information on the Church's position and the events that are taking place in Medjugorje. Keep in mind that these apparitions are not yet approved or disapproved by the Church, and making a decision either way would be a misrepresentation of the Catholic Church.
