There’s a crisp hint of Autumn in the air when a young Adele Brise first catches sight of the mysterious figure. It’s October 1859. Adele carries her bag of wheat toward the grist mill, in a wooded patch of Northern Wisconsin, when she freezes, frightened. There, between a hemlock and maple tree stands a beautiful woman clothed in dazzling white, wearing a yellow sash and crown of stars atop her flowing golden hair, until...she’s gone. The vision of the woman fades, and Adele all alone, continues on her way. A second encounter with the mystery woman a few days later is just as startling, compounded by the fact this figure doesn’t say a word. On counsel from a priest, Adele is prepared for her next encounter and says to the figure: In God’s name who are you and what do you want from me? I am the Queen of Heaven, who prays for the conversion of sinners, the woman says, and I wish you to do the same. The Queen of Heaven—the Blessed Virgin Mary—proceeds to explain to Adele what she’s being called to do: teach the children of this wild country what they should know for their salvation, while also encouraging Adele, that she’s not going to have to do it alone. #Catholic #OurLadyofGoodHelp #MarianApparitionSite #FaithFullPodcast
