Walk the Sacred Path in the Mountains of Spain
On June 18, 1961, four young girls in the remote mountain village of San Sebastian de Garabandal, Spain, first encountered Saint Michael the Archangel while playing near the village. Conchita González, Mari Cruz González, Jacinta González, and Mari Loli Mazón, ages 11-12, began a series of over 2,000 apparitions that would continue until November 13, 1965. The village, located 90 kilometers from Santander in the Cantabrian Mountains, became a place of pilgrimage as word spread of these extraordinary encounters, which were preceded by the Archangel's visitations preparing the children to meet the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Received on October 18, 1961 declared: "We must make many sacrifices, perform much penance, and visit the Blessed Sacrament frequently. But first, we must be very good. If we do not, a chastisement will befall us. The cup is already filling up, and if we do not change, a very great chastisement will come upon us." This message emphasizes personal conversion and Eucharistic devotion as essential to avoiding divine punishment. Our Lady stressed that goodness must precede all spiritual practices—right living forms the foundation of authentic faith.
Of a future global Warning, described as a momentary stopping of time worldwide during which every person will see the spiritual condition of their soul and their sins as God sees them. This illumination of conscience will last several minutes and will be visible and felt internally by all people simultaneously, regardless of faith or location. It serves as God's final act of mercy before the promised Miracle, giving humanity one last chance to convert before the culmination of the Garabandal prophecies unfolds.
