Fifth apparition: Thursday 24 March 1983
9:30 p.m.
“My children,
my mission is over.
Tonight the angel said to me: ‘Blessed are you among women.’ And all I could answer him was: ‘Here I am, the handmaid of the Lord.’
I am happy.
I am not worthy to tell you: ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ but my God has said it.
Found a Church; I did not say build a church.
The Church that Jesus founded is one Church, because Jesus is one.
The Church is the Kingdom of Heaven on earth. Whoever divided it has sinned, and whoever rejoiced in its division has sinned.
Jesus built it; it was small, and when it grew, it became divided. Whoever divided it has no love in him.
Gather together.
I tell you: pray, pray and pray.
How beautiful my children are, kneeling in prayer!
Do not be afraid, I am with you.
Do not be divided as the great ones were divided.
You will teach the generations the word of unity, love and faith.
Pray for those who dwell on earth and in heaven [1].”
Note: 24 March 1983 was the eve of the feast of the Annunciation (25 March), hence the reference to the angel’s greeting.
[1] At the end of this apparition, before coming back to herself, Myrna said: “Father almighty…”, and those present carried on the Creed after her. At the end of the Creed, she said: “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill among people.” When she came back to herself, she was asked why she had done and said this; she answered: “It was the Virgin who began, and I carried on after her.”
