About Our Lady Queen of Light Silas Monday, March 23, 2015

Question:

Greetings

I am Roman Catholic and I am researching about devotions, prayers, appearances or any relevant information about Our Lady Queen of Light. Because we have a community here in Brazil with an icon and Our Lady with this title.I wonder if you guys know anything of this devotion especially. So far I have found some sites with references to "the Chaplet of Queen of Light" One of them are in Saint-mike.org's page:
https://www.saint-mike.org/library/chaplets/queen_light.html
another one is here:
http://www.rosaryandchaplets.com/chaplets/queen_of_light.html

but that's it. It would be a very great charity if anyone could give me more information . Thank you very much!

Sorry my bad English!



Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OMSM(r), LTh, DD

Dear Silas:

The only reference I can find with the specific title of Our Lady, Queen of Light is from the unapproved seer, Sebastian Pericci, an Italian teenager who reported visions of the Blessed Virgin Mary since August 4, 2004. Since this apparition is not approved by the Church it should not be used for devotion.

The Chaplet of Mary, Queen of Light predates the 2004 apparition to Sebastian Pericci. It is not the same title. However, I cannot find any source for the title Mary, Queen of Light, thus we will remove that chaplet from our website.

There is a devotion to Mary under the title, Our Lady of Light.  This apparition and devotion is officially approved by the Church. You can find information about it at Our Lady of Light.

As for the community in Brazil that uses the title of Our Lady, Queen of Light, I suggest asking about the source of this devotion under that title.

God Bless,
Bro. Ignatius Mary
