Apparitions refer to supernatural appearances of heavenly persons (e.g. Jesus Christ, the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Angels, the Saints).

Some truths regarding apparitions include...

* Most alleged apparitions are false

* Apparitions may not add to the deposit of the faith, which was completed with the apostles

* Misplaced belief in false apparitions may be dangerous

* Information from apparitions is not required for salvation

* Apparitions require careful discernment

* Unexplained "phenomena" do not guarantee authenticity of an apparition

* Even saints have been wrong in interpreting visions

* Persons should not center their faith around an apparition

* The Church is unable to guarantee the authenticity of any apparition with "absolute certainty"
