Shop for Our Lady of Fatima gifts, jewelry, statues, books, movies, and more. May 13th, 2017 marked the 100th anniversary of the appearance of Our Lady of Fatima, and the devotion continues growing in the world. With a special devotion to Our Lady, Catholic Shop stocks many Our Lady of Fatima items.
The Fatima devotion began in 1917 when the Virgin Mary appeared to three shepherd children in Fatima, Portugal, and delivered a message of peace and repentance. The apparition led to the establishment of the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Fatima, which has become a major pilgrimage site for Catholics around the world.
"Let us all willingly endeavor to follow faithfully the path that He has mapped out for us. Yes, because it was out of love that God sent us this pressing call from his mercy, in order to help us along the way of our salvation" - Sister Lucia, one of the three Fatima visionaries
3/4 x 1/2-inch Gold-Filled (14K) Our Lady of Fatima Medal. |
Though the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima took place almost a hundred years ago, Our Lady's call to prayer and penance for the salvation of souls and peace in the world is as relevant now as when first delivered to three Portuguese peasant children in 1917. At the peak of the First World War, Our Lady warned of another worldwide conflict, the rise and spread of Communism, and a terrible persecution of the Church unless people repented of their sins and returned to God. She also requested devotion to her Immaculate Heart and a special consecration of Russia. Much of what Our Lady of Fatima said was revealed soon after her appearances, but the third and final "secret", which was not a message but a prophetic vision seen by the children, was not unveiled by the Vatican until 2000. Pope John Paul II, who read the third secret while recovering from the attempt upon his life in 1981, believed the vision signified the sufferings the Church had endured in the twentieth century. Because of the prophetic nature of her messages, Our Lady of Fatima has been the subject of much controversy and speculation. In this book, Father Andrew Apostoli carefully analyzes the events that took place in Fatima and clears up lingering questions and doubts about their meaning. He also challenges the reader to hear anew the call of Our Lady to prayer and sacrifice, for the world is ever in need of generous hearts willing to make reparation for those in danger of losing their way to God. 310 pages.

Loved the book. Bought one for a friend, now mine is lent out. Easy read. My only issue is with the statement that Russia has been consecrated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Some websites claim \"NO!\" It makes sense: Russia IS now spreading her EVIL throughout the world. And too many Americans are trusting Russia. They will be the downfall of...
