Those who recite this prayer can never be damned

Our Lady appeared in October 1992 to a twelve year old girl named Christiana Agbo in the small village of Aokpe located in a remote part of Nigeria.

The first appearance occurred in the morning while Christiana was at work in the fields. At around 10, while pausing, he looked up and suddenly saw flashes of light. Christiana asked the sisters if they too saw those strange flashes but they said they didn't see them and that it was probably an effect due to the sun's rays.

Later the mother sent Christiana to the nearby farm to collect herbs. While intent on gathering the girl looked up and to her surprise she saw a beautiful woman suspended in the sky, it was the Madonna. The Virgin looked at her and smiled at her without saying a word. Christiana ran away frightened.

The second apparition also occurred in the same month of October. At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, while she was in her room, angels appeared to her singing; the girl frightened by that vision ran away from home. The angels stayed there for a few hours and before disappearing one of them said to her: "I am the Angel of Peace". Soon the Mother of God appeared. When Christiana saw the Madonna she collapsed to the ground; relatives believed her dead: she was stiff as stone, they said. The girl remained unconscious for about three hours and when she came to, she described her vision to her parents, saying that she saw a beautiful woman: “She is too beautiful to be able to describe her. The Lady was standing on the clouds, she had a shining robe with a veil of a sky blue color that covered her head and dropped her shoulders down to her back. She looked at me intensely, radiant in her smiles and beauty. In her folded hands she held the Rosary ... She said to me: 'I am the Mediatrix of all Graces' ".

The apparitions, which according to experts seem to have much in common with most Marian apparitions of the past and present, over time became more and more frequent, especially between 1994 and 1995.

The public appearances attracted a large number of people to Aokpe. Many of those who went there were attracted above all by solar miracles that occurred with a certain frequency during the period of public appearances. Private appearances were numerous, during 1994 in certain periods they took place almost daily. After the last public apparition, which took place at the end of May 1996, the apparitions continue in private form still today even if with less frequency.

In the first message received from Christiana, Our Lady said to her: “I come from Heaven. They are the refuge of sinners. I come from Heaven to obtain souls for Christ and to give refuge to my children in my Immaculate Heart. What I want from you is that you pray for the souls of Purgatory, for the world and to console Jesus. Do you want to accept? " - Christiana answered without hesitation: "Yes".

"... Offer all the little sufferings you will encounter to console Jesus. I come from Heaven to purify my children and through penance there will be purification".

In a message dated March 1, 1995, Our Lady said: “Those of my children who pray the Rosary with frequency and commitment will receive many graces, so much so that Satan will not be able to approach them. My children, when you are assailed by great temptations and problems take your Rosary and come to me and your problems will be solved. Every time you say "Ave Maria full of Grace" you will receive many graces from me. Those who recite the Rosary can never be damned ”.

In an apparition of July 21, 1993, Our Lady said to Christiana: “Pray with fervor for the world. The world is corrupted by sin. "

Christiana says without hesitation that the most important message of Our Lady is that which asks us to convert to God. Instead the most important prophecies are those that speak of the punishment that God is about to send to the world. In his messages there have been several references to the three days of darkness and it would seem that this event will occur when God sends His retribution to earth.

For now, Our Lady wants Christiana to continue her studies to prepare herself for the task she will have to carry out after the three days of darkness.

The Madonna sometimes appeared to Christiana with tears in her eyes, told her that she was crying because of the many souls who go to hell and asked her to pray for them.

The visionary, after having had a vision of Saint Teresa of Lisieux, decided to become a Carmelite nun. Our Lady consented to the girl's decision to take the name of "Christiana di Maria Bambina", chosen in honor of Saint Teresa of the Child Jesus.

The local Church has proved to be quite favorable from the outset even if, as Archbishop John Onaiyekan kept pointing out during a visit to the site of the apparitions, the Church in these cases is rather cautious: it is very rare that she approves of apparitions while these are still ongoing. An important sign of the good propensity of the diocesan authorities towards the apparitions is the positive opinion on the construction of the sanctuary requested by the Madonna. In addition, Bishop Orgah gave his permission for pilgrimages.
