The Most Holy Apostolic Father, His Holiness Rohan Lalith Aponso, who came before the Main Altar of the Sacred Sanctuary of the Apparition Church, holding the Most Sacred Cross in his Arms, granted the Blessing from this Most Sacred Cross, at the conclusion of the Feast of the Holy Cross, which was celebrated in the evening of Saturday, 9th April 2011, in the Apparition Church of Our Lady of Katunayake’s Shrine. Blessing from this Most Sacred Cross is granted only once a year. The Most Powerful uniqueness of the Blessing from this Holy Cross is the words that pronounces by the Holy Apostolic Father. When the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared before the Holy Apostolic Father, in 1975, she has taught these words to the Holy Apostolic Father, which he pronounces, at the moment when he grants the Blessing from this Most Sacred Cross.
Most Holy Apostolic Father, His Holiness Rohan Lalith Aponso, Blesses tens of thousands of people from the Most Sacred Cross, for the 36th occasion, on 9th April 2011, by pronouncing the words that were taught by Blessed Virgin Mary, 36 year’s ago, in 1975
