Our Lady of Fatima
Where: Fatima, Portugal
When: May 13, 1917
History:
The Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to three children, Lucia Santos and her cousins Francisco and Jacinta Marto (ages 9,10 & 11) at Fatima, Portugal. The children described her as,
"brighter than the sun, shedding rays of light clearer and stronger than a crystal goblet filled with the most sparkling water and pierced by the burning rays of the sun". Mother Mary asked them to pray the rosary every day. She also warned them about the consequences of the World War II, a result of the sins of people. She requested them to pray for sinners and wrong doing souls as many souls perish in hell.
