Join us for a Rosary to Our Lady of Fatima // August 13th

/

Who is Our Lady of Fatima?

Our Lady of Fatima is the title given to the Blessed Virgin Mary in connection with her apparitions to three shepherd children in Fatima, Portugal. Our Lady of Fatima told the shepherd children to pray the rosary daily for the end of the war (World War I). Mary continued to appear once a month for 6 months to the three children, Lucia, Jacinta and Francisco. In October of 1930, the Bishop of Leiria-Fátima approved the visions as “worthy of belief.” Our Lady of Fatima urgently desired for all of faithful to pray daily for the salvation of poor sinners, and for the whole world. That message from Our Mother Mary is a challenge – no matter where you are in your own personal prayer life – to go deeper, to pray often, and with greater fervor.

Join us for a Rosary to Our Lady of Fatima

Saturday, August 13th following the 8:30am Mass 

We will pray a rosary with the 5 prayers to Our Lady of Fatima. Prayers for Hope, Healing and an end to abortion in our country.
