Two Other Apparitions of Our Lady
Our Lady of Knock
Our Lady of La Salette
Two children, Maximin Giraud and Mélanie Calvat, reported seeing “a beautiful lady” weeping bitterly on the mountain of La Salette in the French Alps in 1846. Through the children, she gave her message of reconciliation to the world and insisted that this message be made known to all her people. She was crying, and around her neck was a crucifix, with a hammer and pincers on either side. The hammer symbolizes the sins of humanity that put the nails into the hands of Jesus; the pincers symbolize the good people do that remove the nails from Jesus’ hands. (See "Homily for the Feast of Our Lady of La Salette" for more.)
