The Tide of Vain Credulity: The Church's Role in Apparitions Most Rev. Jean Honoré, Archbishop of Tours
Catholic Apparitions of Jesus and Mary "The purpose of this website is to provide information about the Church's position on the major apparitions of Jesus and Mary. The site rates the different apparitions and designates which ones have Church approval. This site seems to be well-balanced and obedient to the Church's position and does not promote unapproved apparitions." (Petersnet)
