Marian apparition · Pellevoisin, France
Our Lady of Mercy
Dying of an incurable illness, Estelle Faguette saw the Virgin Mary fifteen times in her room at Pellevoisin and was healed on 18 February 1876; the Archbishop of Bourges confirmed the healing as miraculous in 1983, with the consent of the Holy See. Leo XIII recognised the Scapular of the Sacred Heart in 1900, and in August 2024 the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith opened the way to a nihil obstat, recommending the devotion to Our Lady of Mercy.
