First Apparition — Good Success I am Mary of Good Success, Queen of Heaven and Earth. It is my wish that you command a statue of me to be made, just as you see me, to be placed above the abbess’s chair in the upper choir, so that from there I may govern my monastery.
In the times to come, when the faith will be nearly lost among peoples, I wish to sustain the faithful under this title of Good Success.

The statue and hidden name With the making of my statue, I will favor not only you and my convent, but also the people in general throughout the centuries. How many conversions it will bring about!
As for your request that your name be hidden, this pleases me. Tell the Bishop that it is my will and the will of my Most Holy Son that your name be hidden at all costs. This knowledge will become known to the general public in the twentieth century.

Prophecy of a future crisis Shortly after the middle of the twentieth century, the passions will erupt and there will be a total corruption of customs. Satan will reign through the Masonic sect, using them to destroy sacramental marriage.
The sacrament of Matrimony, which symbolizes the union of Christ with the Church, will be attacked and profaned. Freemasonry, which will then be in power, will enact iniquitous laws with the aim of extinguishing this sacrament.
The spirit of impurity will saturate the atmosphere. There will be almost no virgin souls. Priests will neglect their sacred duties. The precious light of Faith will be extinguished in souls by the almost total corruption of customs.
In those times, a simple, humble faith in the truth of my apparitions will be reserved for humble and fervent souls, docile to the inspirations of grace.

Dogmas and restoration The dogma of the Immaculate Conception will be proclaimed, and papal infallibility will be declared a dogma of the Faith by the same Pope chosen to proclaim that mystery.
Moments will come when everything will seem lost and paralyzed. That will be the happy beginning of the complete restoration. My hour will arrive when I, in an amazing manner, will overthrow proud Satan, crushing him under my feet.
