In their ecstasies the girls went into homes
In his book, Garabandal Message of Hope, Fr. Jose Luis Saavedra speaks about the visits the girls made to homes while they were in ecstasy. These very extraordinary events, which we will take a look at now, remind us of how Our Lord and Our Blessed Mother visit our homes, too, and wish to occupy first place in them. We ought to open our doors and let them in so that our homes may be true "domestic Churches" where love, faith, and peace may reign.

“One day, in my room, doubting if the miracle would come, I heard a voice that said, ‘Conchita, do not doubt that my Son will perform a miracle.’[…] I felt this voice interiorly, but as clear as if it were through my ears, even better than with words; it left me a profound peace and joy, greater than when I saw the Virgin.” - Conchita
