Madone de Sesule 

 

In 1885 she appeared to Teresa Dush, an illiterate child. Bishop establishing a commission, which will study the truth of the apparitions. Discovered a letter on the construction of the chapel. In the heart of Benecia, in a charming place, with views across the plains of Friuli, the September 8, 1855 the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared, just before Lourdes, a little girl, Therese Dush, and conversed with her in the Slovenian place , "little naše", as well as later did with Bernadette dialect French Pyrenees. Just like a mother with her child. It was a surprise to all Porzus / Porčinj. After nearly two centuries, when around the Friuli no more remembered those appearances - but he remembered the families of the place, handing down the memory from generation to generation, and gathering together daily in the "sinkhole "to pray the Rosary in the open air until the good Grimaz together with the villagers and expense not built it on their heads that chapel -, here is a group of priests, headed mons.Vito Ferini, resumed pilgrimages. Now, as in support of their efforts, it is checked from oblivion a letter, the one that had Grimaz then addressed the priests asking for forgiveness (!) for having built without their permission that chapel. It is a manuscript of 64 pages, in which on testimony also the brother of Teresina, then seventeen, recounts details that are fully in line with what was passed down orally. This has occurred to me on Sunday 1st May when, arriving in the "sinkhole", I found myself in the midst of a multitude of faithful gathered, and with Brazilian Sisters of Providence, the celebration of the new year of pilgrimages and the procession with the statue of the "Madone de Sesule" and the little Teresa at her feet. Starting from the Chapel of the Apparitions, the march is directed to the church where the Madonna had imprinted on the hand of the seer that all gold cross, which accompanied him until his death, a visible sign of the authenticity of the apparitions. With great joy we hear the voice of Don Vittorino Ghenda, you spend so much for the sanctuary , the good news of the diocesan commission, established by Archbishop Andrea Track Mazzocato for the study of the truth of the apparitions, sure that it will give new impetus to what Heaven wanted to start, repeating to us the recommendation made by the Virgin in Teresina: "Dí his mother and all to sanctify Sundays and holidays, but especially not to blaspheme, which gravely offends God, and observe the fasts prescribed by the Church." It is right to think. Who knows what Madonna would not do well here, as already in Lourdes, when finally we wake ourselves in all the surrounding countries, near and far, in imitation of the good people of Porzus / Porčinj, appreciating the great gift that the Virgin still there It offers to present and eternal salvation.
