Jacinta Marta reported these words from Our Lady of Fatima on this day in 1917. Lucia Santos and her cousins Jacinta and Francisco Marto reported apparitions of the Virgin Mary beginning on May 13, 1917 and continuing on the 13th day for six consecutive months.
The events at Fátima gained particular fame due to their elements of prophecy and eschatology, particularly with regard to possible world war and the conversion of Soviet Russia. The reported apparitions at Fátima were officially declared “worthy of belief” by the Catholic Church. [Wikipedia]
365 Things I Believe is a revisioning of a year long web project. I initially launched the blog 365 Things I Believe because I think there are important things I have to say. There are eternal truths that are non-debatable, although I realize they’re not universally accepted.
So for a year I did a daily post of one thing I believe to be an indisputable truth. I’m relaunching here at The Write Side of My Brain and will continue through the next year to re-post (mostly) from the original project.
This time graphics and commentary are included. You can buy today’s print here.
