Blessed Virgin of Monte Bonicca
Italy (1595)
On September 11, 1595, the Blessed Virgin appeared to the inhabitants of Campo Ligure and Masone, two villages in the Valle Stura. The two divided communities were in a bitter struggle for 4 centuries. Two representatives of Campo went to Vico to implore peace from the Madonna del Pilone. Upon their return to Campo, during vespers some of the people fell to the ground unconscious, and a woman known to be mentally unstable, began to speak of great spiritual concepts. The next day the two villages made peace and celebrated together a Mass in Masone. After the celebration, everyone saw on Mount Bonicca a white cloud that seemed to consist of a large army of people. This soon vanished, giving way to another equally bright cloud. The appearances were preceded by 4 cases of healing.
