Our Lady of Fatima: 100 Years of Stories, Prayers, and Devotions
On May 13, 1917, the Virgin Mary first revealed herself to a trio of shepherd children in Fatima, Portugal. She would appear to them five more times over the course of the year until the great miracle of the sun on October 13, 1917. She brought a message of love and peace that was heard around the world--a sorely-needed antidote to the ravages of World War I. To mark the 100th anniversary of the apparitions, Donna-Marie Cooper O'Boyle provides a one-stop guide to the tradition, history and spirituality of Our Lady of Fatima, including the testimonies of those who have made the pilgrimage and prayers for those who share this devotion.
Each chapter begins with a quote by or about the Blessed Mother before delving into a key aspect of the story of Mary's appearances to nine-year-old Lúcia Santos and her cousins, Jacinta and Francisco Marto. A prayer, a simple reflection and a doable call to action transform this book from a simple historical retelling into a practical devotional. The Blessed Mother's Fatima message is needed now more than ever. The uncertainty of global events can seep into our daily worries, creating fear and anxiety that's difficult to overcome. Our Lady of Fatima is a welcome remedy for that worry. In it, you'll find a chance to grow in faith and holiness, as well as a needed dose of inspiration, hope and peace in following its advice and suggestions, and in praying the prayers.Â
