5^ APPARITION
Date: Wednesday 17th May 1944
Time: 18:00
Attendance: About 3000 people
Vision: the Blessed Virgin Mary with eight angels |
That day was
the last time that Adelaide attended the primary school of Ghiaie
di Bonate. She was questioned by her teacher about the apparitions
and her story sounded convincing. When back home, Adelaide was
taken to her room by her mother who asked her weeping about
the truth on the apparitions. Adelaide confirmed once again. |
From Adelaide's diary:
"When the usual time came, I went to the place of the
apparitions. The two doves preceded the bright spot and Our
Lady showed herself dressed in red; she also wore a green
mantle with a long trail. Around the three light circles there
were eight angels alternatively dressed in blue and pink,
all below Our Lady's elbows, arranged in a semicircle. As
soon as I saw Our Lady she spoke to me right away and confided
a secret reserved to the Bishop and the Pope using these words:
Tell
the Bishop and the Pope the secret I am confiding to you
I advise you to do what you are told, but do not tell this
to anyone else. Then She slowly
disappeared.".

Three days
later, on the 20th May, Adelaide was taken to the Bishop's for
revealing the secret. What was so important in the secret for
the Bishop to go to Gandino on purpose, towards half June 1944,
where the young girl was at the time, to have it repeated to
himself? Adelaide was also taken to Rome in 1949 and was granted
a private audience by Pope Pius XII to whom she confided the
secret Our Lady had revealed on the 17th May 1944. |
