The second apparition took place on July 13, 1947. The white rose represented the spirit of prayer, the red one represented the spirit of sacrifice, and the yellow rose the spirit of penance and conversion. Our Lord sends me to bring you a new Marian devotion to all religious orders and institutes, male and female, and to the priests of the world. I promise to protect those religious orders and institutes who will venerate me in this special way, increase their vocations, and achieve a greater striving for saintliness among the servants of God. Our Lady also requested that the 13th of each month be celebrated as a Marian day.
Special prayers are to be said during the proceeding twelve days.
Our Lady started appearing at the Basilica of Montichiari to Pierina, and one time to some priests as well. The Blessed Mother requested that this shall be a place for sinners and the sick. All can go and find peace there. Pierina had many visitations and messages from the Virgin Mary, and now there is a Shrine at Montichiari and Fontalle. After the revelations of Our Lady, Pierina withdrew once more into a life of peaceful retirement.
