Church approval

On September 19, 1851, Bishop Philibert de Bruillard of Grenoble declared in a pastoral letter that the apparition "bears in itself all the characteristics of truth" and that the faithful have grounds to believe it.

On September 19, 1846, two children, Maximin Giraud and Mélanie Calvat, said they met a "beautiful lady" in the high pastures above the village.
