The Prophecies

          The relatively few messages of Garabandal contain prophecies of supernatural events that will affect the entire world.  In addition, the visionaries claimed that they were given a series of frightening warnings about the future.  Each of the girls stated that Mary told them about the series of four extraordinary events which would reflect God’s concern for the state to which humanity had fallen.  These events were reported to be:

A worldwide warning to be experienced by everyone on earth.  It’s purpose will be to call humanity to amend it’s behavior and return to God.

A great miracle that will occur in the late winter or early spring within one year after the warning.

Permanent signs that will remain for all time at a pine grove near Garabandal and other selected locations of Marian apparitions.

A terrible chastisement during which many will die.  Other prophecies indicate that this chastisement will eliminate up to two-thirds of humanity.  The chastisement depends upon the response of humanity to the warning and the miracle.
