Two girls (two little sisters) were saying the Rosary very nicely and devoutly in front of their home. A beautiful Lady suddenly appeared, walked towards the younger—-who was only about six or seven—-took her by the hand, and led her away. Her elder sister was very startled and looked for the little girl everywhere.
At last still not having found her, she went home and heart-brokenly told her parents that her sister had been kidnapped. For three whole days, the poor father and mother sought the child but could not find her.
At the end of the third day, they found her at the front door looking extremely happy and pleased. Naturally, they asked her where on earth she had been, and she told them that the Lady to whom she had been saying her Rosary had taken her to a lovely place where she had given her delicious things to eat.
She said that the Lady had also given her a Baby Boy to hold, that He was very beautiful and that she had kissed Him over and over again.
The father and mother, who had been converted to the Catholic Faith only a short time before, sent at once for the Jesuit Father who had instructed them for their reception into the Church and who had also taught them devotion to the Most Holy Rosary.
They told him everything that had happened and it was this priest himself who told me this story. It all took place in Paraguay.
So, dear children imitate these little girls and say your Rosary every day as they always did. If you do this you will earn the right to go to Heaven to see Jesus and Mary.
If it is not their wish that you should see them in this life, at any rate after you die you will see them for all eternity. Amen. So be it.
Therefore let all men, the learned and the ignorant, the just and the sinners, the great and the small praise and honor Jesus and Mary, night and day, by saying the Most Holy Rosary. “Salute Mary who hath labored much among you. ” [Romans 16:6.]
