Interesting Discovery About the Latitude of Marian Apparitions
by Michael K. Jones

In one of my articles I pointed out the similarities of Garabandal and Medjugorje. Someone who read that article pointed  out something interesting . He noticed that Medjugorje and Garabandal were very close in latitude so he checked out each apparition site on Google's latitude map and found out they were only a few tenths of a degree from each other. In his curiosity he checked other Marian apparitions sites and found that Lourdes is also on the same latitude as Medjugorje and Garabandal. He also found out that the apparition sites of Fatima and Akita Japan are on the same latitude as each other. Akita Japan was quickly approved based on the fact it was similar to Fatima's message. Further research showed not only were these apparitions sites on the same latitude but others not as well known were as well. (Here you could mention the others after further research).   Some are closer than others and some don't have another even remotely close. For the many that do however one could ask  is there something to these sites lining up on the same latitude? Is it a signature mark of Mary? Is it a way of Mary telling us that all her messages are in some way connected to one another? Or could it be a way to show that we are all on equal plane when it comes to a Mothers Love. Perhaps there is no way to know if this is something that was intentional on the part of God or Mary herself. It does however leave one wondering. I would be interested in hearing from people if someone had any ideas on this coincidence. 
 

Thanks to David Hahn for sending his discovery to Medjugorje USA
