Marian Apparitions take a long time to
be approved by the Church, e.g. Fatima 13 years.
This presentation does not attempt to justify any apparition but rather to show the facts.
Our faith must depend on the teachings of the Church.
The decree of the Congregation for the Propagation of the
Faith A.A.S.58,1186 (approved by Pope Paul VI on October 14, 1966) states that the Nihili
Obstat and Imprimatur are no longer required on Catholic publications that deal with
private revelations, provided they contain nothing contrary to faith and morals. The final
authority regarding some of these apparitions rests with the Holy See of Rome, to whose
judgement we willingly submit.
