Our Lady of the Oak 1
Maisières, France (1803)
On the morning of April 3, 1803, in the Valley of the Loue near Omans, about 20 km from Besancon, 23 year old Cecile Mille, saw a beautiful, tall lady dressed in white, accompanied by four little girls also wearing white clothes, each carrying a lit candle. This beautiful lady continued walking all the way to the ‘Oak of Our Lady”.
On August 15, 1803 Cecile and a few others saw two “lights” that were coming out of the Oak of Our Lady near the lower branches. A closer inspection led to the discovery of a 19 cm clay statue of the Virgin with child.
