Introduction:

Since 1968, the Virgin has appeared regularly in Egypt, Millions of people who witnessed the apparition were astonished when they discovered the mother of Christ floating above the Church of Virgin St. Mary in Zeitoun, Shubra, and Assiut. Thus, the Virgin appeared for almost three years in Zeitoun and was seen every evening by more than 100,000 believers and atheists, including the then Egyptian president, Nasser. Even more incredible, she resumed her spectacular apparitions in 2000 in Assiut. But in Europe, these apparitions were passed over in silence. Yet, for the first time in history, these Marian apparitions were photographed, and some even filmed. Father François Brune conducted research in Egypt with countless witnesses and, in this quasi-supernatural book, presents the results of his investigation. (Back cover note by author)

The Virgin of Egypt

These are certainly the most fantastic apparitions of the Virgin Mary in the entire history of the Church, throughout the world and across the centuries. Indeed, during all other apparitions, only a few privileged people could see her, if at all.

The Virgin of Zeitoun

The author reviews the various apparitions of the Virgin Mary throughout the country. In this book, you will read about the apparition of the Virgin Mary in Zeitoun in 1968, her apparition in Assiut, her apparition in Shubra, and others.
In Egypt, since 1968, entire crowds have seen the Virgin Mary for hours, several times a week and over periods of several years. Add to that the fact that the vast majority of those who saw the Virgin Mary were not even Christians, but others, and many of them nevertheless benefited from miraculous healings. These Marian apparitions have been the subject of investigations, official recognition, and countless newspaper and magazine articles in the country for years.
