Arg\u00fcelles of Lipa in the Philippines formally approved apparitions to a nun that allegedly occurred during the 1940s. The approval came after decades of rejection by a national committee, which quashed the positive declarations of the local ordinary. In 2010, astonishingly, the Vatican itself &#8220;affirmed&#8221; that the apparitions were &#8220;not supernatural.&#8221; That directive came under Pope Benedict XVI, who himself, as prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, was strict about apparitions (more so than his predecessor, Saint John Paul II) and convened the current committee on Medjugorje. The official declaration that the apparitions at Lipa<i> <\/i>are<i> &#8220;worthy of belief&#8221; &#8212; <\/i>by Archbishop Aguelles &#8212; stated that the events were indeed supernatural and strongly encourages devotion to &#8220;Our Lady, Mediatrix of Grace,&#8221; as she called herself there. As we reported at the time, &#8220;Unless overturned by Rome, the apparition is thus &#8220;Church-approved.&#8221;<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.spiritdaily.com\/decree1.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"gsp_post_data\" \r\n\t            data-post_type=\"post\" \r\n\t            data-cat=\"apparitions\" \r\n\t            data-modified=\"120\"\r\n\t            data-created=\"1464782313\"\r\n\t            data-title=\"Cardinal M\u00fcller Nullifies Approval Of Lipa\" \r\n\t            data-home=\"https:\/\/spiritdaily.org\/blog\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Last autumn, on September 12, 2015, Archbishop Ram\u00f3n C.
