She was here in 1859

She being the Virgin Mary and here being Champion, Wisconsin.


The church has validated that the Virgin Mary appeared to Adele Brise three times. The church did not validate the appearance willy-nilly. They investigated for two years. This validation is only one of 386 appearances claimed in the 20th century. The church investigated 75 and validated twelve. That's not very many, about 3%. Still, one has to wonder whether the recent scandals in the church had any effect on the investigation.

You sound skeptical. Why is that? It makes Perfect sense to me that the Virgin Mary would appear in Wisconsin in 1859; what else did she have to do?
