LOS ANGELES, CA (California Network) - The people of San Carlos, Argentina have reported seeing the Virgin Mary in the sky and are sharing a photograph to prove it. The image shows and unusual array of light which bears a resemblance to the Virgin Mary. The people of Argentina believe it is a sign that Our Lady is looking after them during the coronavirus pandemic. Argentina has recently enacted measures to slow transmission of the virus. 

The image looks remarkably like Our Lady, with a crown and blue rays of light cast to either side. What is the message? 

For now, each person is invited to draw their own conclusions. However, Our Lady has often appeared during times of trial and tribulation, and the present moment would qualify. Pandemics in particular often spark great changes in societies. In much of the world, coronavirus is not only causing thousands of lives to be lost, but it is also driving many economies into recession. The impact of these economic troubles remains to be seen, but it could be substantial if we see political upheavals as a result. 

For us, the economics and the politics do not matter so much. We must do all we can to protect human life. And we must do all we can to protect our souls. This is accomplished through the conversion of our hearts to Mary. Every apparition calls for this act. We must turn our hearts to God and Mary and pray and work for the conversion of the world.
