Devotion to Mary, the Lady of All Nations

In the book, "Our Blessed Mother: Mary in Catholic Tradition",
author Therese Johnson Borchard lists down eight notable Marian
apparitions with ecclesiastical approval. These eight apparitions
are:

• Guadalupe, Mexico (1531)
• Paris, France (Rue de Bac, 1830)
• La Salette, France (1846)
• Lourdes, France (1858)
• Pontmaine, France (1871)
• Fatima, Portugal (1917)
• Beauraing, Belgium (1932-33)
• Banneux, Belgium (1933)

There is also another Marian apparition (a private revelation to
a Dutch visionary, Ida Peerdeman, from 1945-1959), which in recent
years has obtained ecclesiastical permission for its promotion.
This is the devotion to Mary, the Lady of All Nations (the Mother
of All Peoples, the Mother of All Humanity). For more information
