MARIAN APPARITION On 19 September 1846 the Virgin Mary manifested herself to two French shepherd children of 15 and 11 years old: M閘anie Calvat (7 November 1831 - 14 December 1904) and Maximin Giraud (26 August 1835 - 1 March 1875); entrusting them with a message a warning for the impiety and sins of men and forgiveness for those who had converted and done penance; to bring to all humanity. "Come my children; do not be afraid. I am here to tell you the Good News". Then he communicated a secret to each of them and disappeared into Heaven. Monsignor Joseph Henry; Bishop of Grenoble; granted the faithful 40 days of indulgence for the recitation of the invocation "Our Lady of La Salette; reconciler of sinners; pray relentlessly for us who have resorted to you".
