Before Bayside - there was Necedah.
I love this - Badg and his wife drove by the "Shrine" - but never got out of the car. I wonder if their rosaries still turned gold?
BTW, guidelines for the discernment of reported apparitions and mystical phenomena have finally been translated, published and released by the CDF. (Read more here.) The 1978 document was always available and sent to bishops, but it was in Latin. Authorities (priests/bishops) have referred to the guidelines in their various assessments of supposed miraculous occurrences, which have percolated in the later half of the 20th century. I may be mistaken, but it seems to me I read somewhere similar criteria as stated in the guidlines used to condemn both Bayside and Necedah, as well as OL of the Roses apparitions at San Damiano in Italy. I know!
