Miraculous statue & Pilgrim Virgin statue of Our Lady of Frechou

The Apparitions of Our Lady in Le Fréchou, France. On June 10, 1977 She said to her confidant Reverend Father Jean Marie:

I am Mary, Mother of Mercy and Mother of the Church. I desire of my children to come here on a pilgrimage. I shall come on the first and fourteenth of each month... and I shall listen to the supplications of my people. My Divine Son has chosen this piece of land for me, so that I make my Mercy burst forth here. May this blessed forest, which is from now on consecrated to me, be a place of prayer, penance and mercy.

While tears were running down Our Lady's face, Father Jean Marie asked her interiorly the reason for her tears. She answered him: I am weeping over the Church, over France and over the World.

Today, the Most Blessed Virgin Mary has been appearing for over 30 years to Father Jean Marie. 30 years of signal graces, miracles, varied as well as numerous; 30 years which witnessed thousands and thousands of pilgrims, flocking in from around the world, coming and kneeling at the foot of the Immaculate One, in this little Forest, to present their supplications to Her. For they have put their trust in the words from this Good Mother: "(…) I shall listen to the supplications of my people."

And She, the Faithful Virgin, kept her word. How many can testify to her motherly goodness, how many can attest to most astounding miracles, of which they have been the fortunate beneficiaries. And who has not shed tears of emotion during
the Holy Mass of the Apparition?

When Heaven bends over the earth and opens up to let her benefit from its most precious treasure: the Admirable and Most Humble Virgin Mary, Queen of Angels of men: how moving it is for he, who has been chosen to be Her Confidant, Father Jean Marie. It is like a moment of Eternity, which envelops the earth in a very specific time.

And the humble people just cannot be wrong about it. They recognize and feel, within their innermost, that Mary Immaculate visits the earth. But there are unspeakable emotions, inner feelings. You have to experience them, be part of them to comprehend. You have to be there in person, at the feet of this Good Mother to touch that something so difficult to catch, to taste this rest of the heart, in this humble haven of peace.

It is little Elodie, age 6, who comes and thanks Our Lady of Frechou for having healed her legs. Indeed, her knees were so close to each other that she could hardly walk. Now, as soon as she arrived at the blessed Forest's entrance, she, her mother and grandmother realized that her legs were quite straight, with no longer any abnormality!

Didier, Bridget and many others, as for them, had the grace to contemplate the Holy Face in the host during the Holy Mass of the Apparition. A completely disabled pilgrim, who could move but on a wheel chair, suddenly recovered full usage of her legs on a 14th, during Holy Mass.

Another pilgrim, affected with breast cancer, after having applied the medal of mercy (given by Our Lady of Frechou) to the sick area on her body, learnt with the next medical visit that her disease has completely disappeared, and she noticed at the same time that the medal had left an imprint on her flesh. So many and many other miracles have happened over 30 years, and each new 14th of the month is a source of graces for all the pilgrims, and each one leaves for home again with peace of heart: and this is already a miracle!

Note from the webmater: Whoever interested may request by email (found on there website) the Pilgrim Virgin statue to be brought to his or her place. They are small replicas of Our Lady of Frechou, circulating around the world, and going from family to family, reviving fervor and bringing peace.

To cite but a few examples, a family in New York recovered peace after receiving the Pilgrim Virgin for a novena of prayers; the mother testified that all arguments had come to an end after her passage. A lady in New Jersey was healed from cancer after having received Our Lady in her home, while another family secured the sale of their house during the novena, a thing they had tried to do for a long time.

Learn more about these events at fraternitenotredame.com which has explanatory text about Most Reverend Bishop Jean Marie, the Apparitions and the many miracles worked by Her and also through our many Pilgrim Virgin Statues, which are small reproductions of the original; they bring them to people's homes and she stays there for prayers and novenas, the rosary. They have many of these small statues around the world.
