Describe the term 'marian apparition' and explain its relationship to visiting pilgrimage sites

The word “apparition” comes from the late Latin word apparitio which means “appearance” or “presence.”An apparition is named when a sudden appearance of a supernatural entity manifests itself to a human person or group. Once the apparition as occurred, they often name the town where the event took place. I read more about marian apparition and truth be told, marian apparitions sometimes are reported to happen again, over an extended period of time. In the majority of Marian apparitions only a few peoplea report having witnessed the apparition. On 18^th July 1830, Mary appeared twice like I mentioned in the last entry. A child went up to Catherine Laboure’s bed and told her “The Blessed Virgin is waiting for you.” Once Mary disappeared, the relationship between Christians and the pilgrimage reinforced. People from all over Europe will travel to this Rue De Bac, just like what I am planning on doing. Once the apparition was approved, Christians travelled to Rue De Bac praying to Catherine Labour body, because they realised Mary our Mother came and gave this pilgrimage a mission. It was the mission of making and distributing the medal of the Immaculate Conception, now known as the Miraculous Medal.
