The reason I write this is I do not see the apparition as purely a Marian Shrine which is the way it is being promoted unfortunately - a serious mistake. Obviously the purpose of the apparition is to put before us the four positive and unchanging essentials for living a Christian life which are:
1. St Joseph representing humility or faith and trust in God which is the indispensable foundation of a true relationship with God.
2. Our Lady - representing communication with God through prayer and self-denial.
3. St John - representing observance of the law which is written in Scripture and in the hearts of those who love the truth.
4. The sacrificial lamb on the altar - representing the sacrifice of the Mass by which we are physically joined to Christ our King.
Note: the apparition took place only nine years after the declaration of papal infallibility. Maybe it is saying something about papal infallibility??
Your feedback would be appreciated.
