Shrine of Our Lady of La Salette

THE APPARITION OF
OUR LADY OF LA SALETTE
On September 19, 1846, a
“Beautiful Lady” appeared to two
shepherd children in the French Alps,
near a village called La Salette.
She was seated, her face buried in
her hands, weeping. She rose, calming
the children’s fears with her maternal
voice. She told them the cause of her
tears: disobedience to the laws of God
and of the Church, blasphemy, failure
to keep the Lord’s Day and lack of
prayer. She wept also at the very
grave consequences of these offenses
for her people, but promised blessings
to those who would return to God.
The La Salette Missionaries were
founded in 1852.
Built on the site of a Shaker colony
on the shores of Lake Mascoma, the
Enfield Shrine features a facsimile
(replica) of the Apparition site of La
Salette in France. It is a place of
prayer and meditation in a unique
natural setting of peace and beauty.
There is no charge for visiting the
Shrine, but freewill contributions help
maintain its programs and facilities.
Travel Directions: La Salette Shrine is best
reached from Exit 17 off of 1-89 in New
Hampshire. From either direction turn right
onto route 4. At the junction of Route 4-A (a
little over 1 mile) bear right, follow route 4A
for 3 miles to La Salette Shrine, on the right.
