iday the 30th everything was the same. Saturday the 1st arrived. That day many people came since it was the Virgin’s day. Perhaps she would appear to us. We went to the Calleja as always to pray the Rosary and the people accompanied us. At the end of the Holy Rosary, the Angel appeared to us, smiling, and said: ─ “I come to announce to you a visit by the Virgin under the title of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, who will appear to you tomorrow, Sunday.” We were very happy and we said to him: ─ Let her come right away! He smiled, and then we said to him: ─ What does this sign you brought mean? ─ The Virgin will tell you about it. This day, he spoke to us about many things. He told Jacinta, Loli, and Mari Cruz how the first day they were going to call Conchita’s mother because they thought she was having an attack [The angel commented to the girls about the events that took place during the first apparition on June 18th]. They laughed... ─ Because they were ─ I don’t know what that day. He was there two hours, but it felt like two seconds to us. After he said to us: ─ I will come tomorrow with the Virgin. And he left. How sad for us! The people were very happy and they asked us: ─ What has he said to you? And we told them what he had said. The people from other places believed and were very happy and wanted to tell those who hadn’t seen. The Angel was dressed in a long, flowing blue tunic without a belt. His wings are somewhat long, very beautiful, and pink in color. His face was neither long nor round; his nose was handsome; his eyes dark; and his face tan. His hands were fine with short nails; his feet weren’t seen. [In this portrait, we can admire the coloring, the precision and the rich literary shading that is shown through the simple style in which this is written].
