Later, Mary asked Gladys to go look for a statue that had been blessed by <a href="/wiki/Pope_Leo_XIII" title="Pope Leo XIII">Pope Leo XIII</a> but was hidden away, forgotten, in a church.

Subsequent attempts by the Catholics to regain the property through legal proceedings against the Calvinists were hindered by the fact that the exact location of the documents pertaining to the church were unknown. In 1608, Mary appeared to miraculously intervene in the matter by appearing at the church and holding the baby Jesus in her arms and weeping bitterly. The apparition was on the site of the buried valuables and documents, leading to the recovery of the deed, the reclaiming of the church land by the Catholics, and the conversion of many Calvinists. Devotion to Our Lady of Šiluva was temporarily suppressed during the period that Lithuania was part of the Soviet Union. She remains a significant symbol of Lithuanian cultural heritage. </td></tr> <tr id="La_Vang"> <td style="background-color:#beb;padding:0" title="Approved public veneration"> </td> <th data-sort-value="La Vang" scope="row"><b><a href="/wiki/Our_Lady_of_La_Vang" title="Our Lady of La Vang">Our Lady of La Vang</a></b> </th> <td>1798 </td> <td data-sort-value="Vietnam"><span class="flagicon"><span class="mw-image-border" typeof="mw:File"><span><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/21/Flag_of_Vietnam.svg/23px-Flag_of_Vietnam.svg.png" decoding="async" width="23" height="15" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/21/Flag_of_Vietnam.svg/35px-Flag_of_Vietnam.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/21/Flag_of_Vietnam.svg/45px-Flag_of_Vietnam.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="900" data-file-height="600" /></span></span></span> <a href="/wiki/H%E1%BA%A3i_L%C4%83ng_District" class="mw-redirect" title="Hải Lăng District">Hải Lăng</a>, Vietnam (Tây Sơn dynasty) </td> <td data-sort-value="999">Vietnamese villagers </td> <td data-sort-value="1961-08-22">Shrine elevated to Minor Basilica<sup id="cite_ref-lavang_lor_105-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-lavang_lor-105"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>104<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><br />August<span class="nowrap">&#160;</span>22,<span class="nowrap">&#160;</span>1961<br /><a href="/wiki/Pope_John_XXIII" title="Pope John XXIII">Pope John XXIII</a> </td></tr> <tr class="expand-child"> <td class="description" colspan="6" style="background: white;">A group of Vietnamese had been fleeing anti-Catholic persecution by hiding in the jungle, and many had become very ill.

The children saw something floating above a hill behind the house, and when Joseph recited a Hail Mary he immediately saw a young woman whom he identified as the Virgin. He heard her ask him to come back at the same hour for sixteen nights and to pray for world peace. Joseph did so, accompanied by his mother and numerous onlookers. Within a few days, the visitations were receiving worldwide attention and up to 20,000 people attended the nightly vigil. Among those who expressed interest in the events were <a href="/wiki/Frank_Sinatra" title="Frank Sinatra">Frank Sinatra</a>, <a href="/wiki/Lou_Costello" title="Lou Costello">Lou Costello</a>, and Cardinal <a href="/wiki/Francis_Spellman" title="Francis Spellman">Francis Spellman</a>. Revered as a saint by the pilgrims, Joseph was frequently asked to cure the sick and injured and would respond by praying with them. The place where Joseph allegedly saw the visions was bought by a devotee who created a shrine there, but there was never any official investigation or attempt to confirm the reported visitations as legitimate. Joseph struggled throughout his life, taking various menial jobs to support his family. He continued to visit the shrine at 7 p.m. each evening until age and poor health prevented him from climbing the hill. The alleged apparitions were never officially approved, but the nearby St. Philip Neri church holds special Masses at the shrine on the anniversaries of the first and last reported visitations.<sup id="cite_ref-129" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-129"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>126<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-130" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-130"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>127<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-131" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-131"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>128<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-132" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-132"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>129<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-133" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-133"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>130<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </td></tr> <tr id="Soufanieh"> <td style="background-color:#666;padding:0" title="No judgment"> </td> <th data-sort-value="Soufanieh" scope="row"><b><a href="/wiki/Our_Lady_of_Soufanieh" title="Our Lady of Soufanieh">Our Lady of Soufanieh</a></b> </th> <td>1982–1983 </td> <td data-sort-value="Syria"><span class="flagicon"><span class="mw-image-border" typeof="mw:File"><span><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/14/Flag_of_the_Syrian_revolution.svg/40px-Flag_of_the_Syrian_revolution.svg.png" decoding="async" width="23" height="15" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/14/Flag_of_the_Syrian_revolution.svg/60px-Flag_of_the_Syrian_revolution.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="900" data-file-height="600" /></span></span></span> Soufanieh, <a href="/wiki/Damascus" title="Damascus">Damascus</a>, Syria </td> <td>Mary Kourbet "Myrna" (Al-Akhras) Nazzour </td></tr> <tr class="expand-child"> <td class="description" colspan="5" style="background: white;">Myrna Nazzour, a <a href="/wiki/Melkite_Greek_Catholic_Church" title="Melkite Greek Catholic Church">Melkite Catholic</a> woman married to an Orthodox husband,<sup id="cite_ref-134" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-134"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>131<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> has reported experiencing various mystical phenomena over the years beginning in 1982, including olive oil oozing both from an <a href="/wiki/Icon" title="Icon">icon</a> and from her own hands, <a href="/wiki/Stigmata" title="Stigmata">stigmata</a> wounds on her body, and apparitions of Mary.

The Holy Virgin appeared in her full height in luminous robes, above the middle dome of the church, in pure white dress and a royal blue belt. She had a crown on her head, above which appeared the cross on top of the dome. The crosses on top of the church's domes and towers glowed brightly with light. The Holy Virgin moved between the domes and on to the top of the church gate between its two twin towers. The local residents all saw her. The apparition lasted from 1:00 am till 4:00 am on Friday, and was registered by cameras and cell phones. Some 3,000 people from the neighbourhood, surrounding areas, and passers-by gathered in the street in front of the church to see the apparition. Since Friday, the huge crowds gathered in the vicinity of the church have been seeing luminous white pigeons soaring above the church during various times of the night, as well as a star which emerges suddenly in the heaven, travels some 200 metres across, then disappears. The huge crowds gathered around the church do not cease singing hymns and praises for the Holy Virgin.<sup id="cite_ref-warraq_approval_150-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-warraq_approval-150"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>147<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup></p></blockquote> </td></tr></tbody></table> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="See_also">See also</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=List_of_Marian_apparitions&amp;action=edit&amp;section=12" title="Edit section: See also"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Holy_Guardian_Angel" class="mw-redirect" title="Holy Guardian Angel">Holy Guardian Angel</a></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Notes">Notes</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=List_of_Marian_apparitions&amp;action=edit&amp;section=13" title="Edit section: Notes"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1239543626">.mw-parser-output .reflist{margin-bottom:0.5em;list-style-type:decimal}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .reflist{font-size:90%}}.mw-parser-output .reflist .references{font-size:100%;margin-bottom:0;list-style-type:inherit}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-2{column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-3{column-width:25em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns{margin-top:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns ol{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns li{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-alpha{list-style-type:upper-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-roman{list-style-type:upper-roman}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-alpha{list-style-type:lower-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-greek{list-style-type:lower-greek}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-roman{list-style-type:lower-roman}</style><div class="reflist"> <div class="mw-references-wrap"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-39"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-39">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">Although news outlets widely reported the apparition as being "Vatican approved,"<sup id="cite_ref-37" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-37"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>37<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> the approval was given by the local bishop with the <a href="/wiki/Congregation_for_the_Doctrine_of_the_Faith" class="mw-redirect" title="Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith">CDF</a>'s permission, not by the CDF directly.<sup id="cite_ref-laus_approval_38-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-laus_approval-38"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>38<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-116"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-116">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">Although the public veneration of associated elements is approved, the apparition itself is not.
