Through a wooden statue of the Virgin Mary that miraculously wept human tears 101 times and bled from a wound on its hand, Mary delivered messages calling the world to urgent prayer, Eucharistic devotion, and penance. Sister Agnes was subsequently cured of her deafness, establishing Our Lady of Akita as a powerful patroness for those suffering from hearing impairments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Mother of Divine Consolation and Refuge in Times of Trial\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Lady of Akita is a compassionate intercessor for those carrying heavy physical or spiritual crosses.
