By Father Raymond J. de Souza, EWTN News - Lúcia, the eldest of the visionaries, reported this about the apparition that day in relation to St. Joseph, who had not been part of the earlier apparitions: "Then opening her hands, she (Our Lady) made them reflect on the sun, and as she ascended, the reflection of her light continued to be projected on the sun itself. ... When a little later, this apparition disappeared I saw Our Lord and Our Lady. ... Our Lord appeared to bless the world in the same manner as St. Joseph had done."
