“On Sept. 12, Sunday, Feast of the Holy Name of Mary, at about 5 p.m., a sister who was taking a walk in the garden suddenly remarked that a vine shook (attracting) her attention. She... heard a woman’s gentle voice that said, ‘Fear not, my child. Kiss the ground. Whatever I shall tell you to do, you must do. For 15 consecutive days come to visit me here in this spot. Eat some grass, my child.’ The sister did not see anyone, she only heard the voice.

“Next day... the sister returned to the place... knelt and recited the Hail Mary. She had reached the words ‘full of Grace’ when (the vine moved again) and... she saw a beautiful lady with her hands clasped on her breast, a golden rosary hanging on her right hand. She was stooping slightly, her dress was pure white, simple, held at the waist by a narrow cloth belt. Her feet were bare and resting on clouds, which were about two feet high from the ground. Her face of indescribable beauty was radiant. She was smiling. ‘Be faithful to come here, be it rain or sunshine,’ she said... Then the sister asked... ‘Beautiful lady, who are you?’ ‘I am thy mother, my little one.’ And having said this she vanished.”

On Sept. 16, 1948, she told Teresita she wanted her statue placed where she appeared. At the end of the 15 days, Our Lady said: “I am Mary, Mediatrix of all Grace.”

"Pray, my child. The people do not heed my words. Tell my daughters that there will be persecutions, unrest, and bloodshed in your country. Theenemy of the Church will try to destroy the faith which Jesus established and died for. The Church will suffer much. Pray for the conversion of sinners throughout the world. Pray for those who rejected me and those who do no believe and trust me. Spread the meaning of the Rosary,
because this will be the instrument for peace throughout the world. Tell the people that the Rosary must be said with devotion. Propagate the devotion of my Immaculate Heart. Do penance for priests and nuns. But be not afraid, for the love of my Son will soften the hardest of hearts and my motherly love will be their strength to crush the enemies of God. What I ask here is the same I asked at Fatima."
