about the La Salette Apparitions | James | Tuesday, December 28, 2004 |
Question: Dear brother, I just want to ask if Melanie Calvat of La Salette has already been beatified because I read some article in the internet calling her "Blessed." Another thing is, are the faithful allowed to read the article "Secret of La Salette" because I read that it has been included on the Index of Forbidden Books. I hope that you can enlighten me on this matter. Thanks! God bless! James |

Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM
Dear James: I believe La Salette has been officially approved by the Church. Here is a webpage for Our Lady of La Salette. Melanie Calvat has be beatified. See her bio I do not know what the article is that you refer to. Since the La Salette has been approved, I presume that it is okay to read the messages from our Lady. I understand thare are some controversies over La Salette, but I am really not familiar with them. One note of caution. There are some wackos out there who have done with La Salette what they have done with Fatima -- claiming that the "secrets" have not been fully revealed. I always find this amuzing -- if it is a secret, how would THEY know if it has been fully revealed unless they were privy to the secrets themselves - they are SECRETS, afterall? :) God Bless,
