| Summary: | L'Île-Bouchard was a part of the mariophanies that took place in a 19th-century's France that was both "Elder Daughter of the Church" and heir to the Revolution. In December 1947 France was poor, destroyed, marked by strikes whose insurrectional character was controversial, but which were violent, fanned by the Communist Party and its union, the cgt. It was a pre-civil war atmosphere. At L'Île-Bouchard, near Tours, four little girls reported seeing the Virgin Mary, who asked them to pray for their country, "which is in great danger". At the same time, the cgt ordered the resumption of work. A supporter of the apparitions was convinced that Mary had saved France from the "red danger". A pilgrimage started, initially discreet, which has been growing in power since the end of the 20th century. The cult was authorized in 2001. L'Île-Bouchard is frequented by rather young and dynamic pilgrims, displaying their faith without any complex, practicing a conciliar Catholicism, but often close to the current of the New Evangelization, charismatic or/and "national-Catholic" traditionalism. The sanctuary is for them a point of support for firm opposition to indifference, even to the aggressiveness of the contemporary world against Catholicism. |
