About this holiday

Our Lady of Akita is a title for the Blessed Virgin Mary related to apparitions reported in Akita, Japan, by Sister Agnes Katsuko Sasagawa in 1973. The apparitions focused on prayer, penance, and prophecies regarding persecution and heresy within the Catholic Church. A statue associated with these apparitions is a site of veneration for Catholics.
