Sanctuary of the Virgin of the Poor
(Banneux, Belgium)
The shrine of Our Lady of Banneux also had its beginning in the 20th century with the 8 appearances of Our Lady to 11-year old Mariette Becco between January 15 and March 2, 1933. A small shrine was built there in response to Our Lady’s request and documented healings have occurred at the Spring where Our Lady instructed Mariette Becco to immerse her hands. Official Ecclesiastical approbation of devotion to the ‘Virgin of the Poor’ and of the reality of the apparitions was affirmed by the Pastoral Letter of His Excellency, Bishop Kerkhofs dated August 22, 1949.
