From Adelaide's
diary:
"On this day I received my First Communion. Like all
the other evenings I was taken to the place of the apparitions
and the bright spot appeared again, revealing Our Lady with
the angels and two Saints at her side. The Lady told me:
Pray for the stubborn sinners
who make my Heart suffer because they do not think of death.
Pray also for the Holy Father who is living difficult moments.
He is ill treated by many and many attempt his life. I will
protect him and he will not leave the Vatican. Peace is coming
soon, but I am anxious for that world peace in which everybody
loves one another like brothers. Only this way the Pope will
suffer less.
Our Lady held two black doves in her hands. They stand for
the harmony married couples must have in order to create blessed
families in the presence of Our Lady. She teaches also that
there cannot exist a blessed family without living trustfully
in Our Lady's motherly hands.
Our Lady did not reveal the name of those two Saints she
had at her sides. Only by internal inspiration I had a clear
insight about their names: Saint Matthew and Saint Judas.
The name Judas stirs up a sad memory in my heart because I
betrayed, though unintentionally, the Blessed Virgin. In this
apparition I can see Our Lady's exquisite charitable spirit.
By showing Saint Judas She wanted to warn me about the trials
I would suffer for asserting her motherly and secure word
that unfortunately I could not bear. I feel that sense of
guilt lying heavily in my conscience, but even if I imitated
Judas the traitor, nevertheless I want to become holy and
follow the example of Saint Judas by being an apostle and
martyr for Jesus' and Our Lady's sake. Saint Matthew inspires
a sense of confidence in my salvation because he was a sinner
too but followed Jesus and became an apostle of his name.
The two Saints were dressed in violet and wore a brown cloak.
Our Lady was dressed in red and wore her green mantle; She
also wore a crown-shaped diadem studded with small bright
variously coloured pearls. Before leaving she turned her eyes
to the two Saints, then slowly disappeared".

The solar
phenomenon repeated itself; it will be seen not only at Ghiaie
but also in very distant places.
From the parish journal of Tavernola,
dated June 1944, one can read: "At 18 hours sharp, people
noticed a fading of the solar light together with a flash,
similar to a sudden lightning; the phenomenon was first distinctively
observed by some bowlers. The sun looked green, then bright
red, then gold yellow
furthermore, it whirled dizzily.
On seeing that spectacle, people poured into the streets
"
As it was known later, through the
revelations of the SS general Karl Wolf, stationed in Italy,
the Pope had run a serious risk of being transported to Germany
and Rome had risked becoming another Stalingrad.
