Andrea convocou a diocese para “uma luta sem quartel, concertada e eficaz contra o mal e as suas artes” (p. 16).

O bispo promoveu orações públicas que congregavam multidões vindas de muito longe. O Maligno se externava visivelmente, e aqueles que sofriam alguma ação diabólica eram levados à sacristia para serem objeto de exorcismos específicos.”

TRANSLATION

“In the pastoral, Msgr. Andrea called upon his diocesis for “a fight without headquarters, focused and efficient against the evil and its arts.
The bishop promoted public prayers that gathered crowds that came from very far. The evil one manifested visiblely and that persons who suffered some kind of diabolical influence were lead to the sacristy and were object of specif exorcisms.”

Off course, I’m not say there is a crowd of possessed that should be exorcized, but our society is a society where the evil, the violence, all kind of evils are extolled as good and that’s a tipical sign of diabolical influence or action.

Perhaps it will seem off topic, but when I fineshed to read this article on Our Lady of Knock, I reminded the story of The Canterville Ghost, because I had finished to read it today morning. Sometimes a good literature helps us thinking about the spiritual things.

On the importance of the prayers for the souls of Purgatory, I had read something of a Charismatic priest (His name is Padre Jorge Tadeu Hermes). He said many social problems are consequence of the sins of our deads. So the prayer for then can obtain of God the pardon for their sins and consequently the solution for the social problems that are rooted in their sins.

However I recognize that is a truth, I think for our social problems today it would be more eficient exorcist prayers, cause nowadays the paganism and the ocultist practises are growing more and more. A italian bisphop has said intersting things about it. His name is Andrea Gemma.

Some time ago I have read an little article of the Vatican Radio about that apparition and I wanted to know more. Now I could it!

By the way, august 15th last, the clergy of Ireland consecrated the island to the Immaculate Heart of Mary in that shrine.
