Our Lady of Beauraing (also known as the Virgin of the Golden Heart) is the title of 33 Marian apparitions reported in Beauraing, Belgium, between November 1932 and January 1933 by five children whose ages ranged between 9 and 15. For several years after the apparitions, pilgrims flocked to the small town of Beauraing, province of Namur (Belgium), and many cures were claimed. ==The Apparitions== The young people who claimed to have seen the apparitions were Fernande (15), Gilberte (13), and Albert (11), children of Hector and Marie-Louise Perpete Voisin. Hector Voisin was a railway clerk. With them were Andree (14) and Gilberte (9) Degeimbre, daughters of Germaine Degeimbre, a farmer's widow.〔(Gillett, H.M., "75 years younger than Lourdes", ''Catholic Herald'', 22 November 1957 )〕 On the evening of 29 November 1932, four of the children walked to a school conducted by the Sisters of Christian Doctrine to meet Gilberte Voisin and walk home with her. When they reached the school, Albert pointed out a lady dressed in a long white robe, near a railroad viaduct just past the school. The other children reported seeing her as well. Over the next several weeks, they saw the lady thirty-two more times, generally in garden of the convent-school. The final apparition was on 3 January 1933.〔 The children reported that the lady requested that a chapel be built at the site and stated that ''I am the Immaculate Virgin''. She also desired for pilgrims to come to the site and asked the children (and everyone) to ''pray, pray, pray'', and in one of the last visions revealed her ''Golden Heart''.〔("Reported Cure at Beauraing", ''Catholic Herald'', 27 August 1948 )〕 In the final vision, the Lady reportedly asked one of the children called Fernande: "''Do you love My Son''?" and she replied "Yes". She then asked her "''Do you love Me?''" and she again answered "Yes". The Lady then stated: "''Then sacrifice yourself for me''." and bade them farewell before the child could reply. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Our Lady of Beauraing」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
