The "Virgin of the Smile"



All of a sudden the Blessed Virgin appeared beautiful to me, so beautiful that never
had I seen anything so attractive; her face was suffused with an ineffable benevolence and tenderness, but what penetrated to the very depths of my soul was the “ravishing smile of the Blessed Virgin.”

Therese's cure from a mysterious illness took place on May 13, 1883.
It was Pentecost Sunday.
