Our Lady’s Apparition at Fatima, Portugal 1917-2017
Fatima is the most prominent approved apparition of the 20th century.
It became famous the world over, particularly for its three-part message or "secret."
We have events each month to help us increase our devotion to Our Lady; to encourage
the recitation of the Rosary; to adore our Lord in the Eucharist; to better understand the
importance of evangelization; and to grow closer with one another.
