Beauraing, Belgium

Beauraing is the site of an apparition of Mary in late 1932 and early 1933 (see also http://www.theotokos.org.uk/pages/approved/appariti/beaurain.html for more information).  Having been to Lourdes and having been somewhat dismayed by the commercialism there, I was pleasantly surprised by the simplicity and spirituality of Beauraing.

 A modern view - note the same bridge in the background.  The statue of Mary
is near where the children saw her appear.

 
Views of a chapel built on the site, as Mary had commanded them to "Pray, pray a great deal" and "Pray always"
