The Miracle and the Message: 100 Years of Fatima
A century old eternally new.
2017 marks the 100th anniversary of the apparitions of the Virgin Mary to three shepherd children at Fatima, Portugal.
The message of Fatima reflects all the teachings of the Catholic faith. It s a message so simple that children could understand it yet one so rich that theologians are still mining its depths.
In The Miracle and the 100 Years of Fatima , author John C. Preiss describes in clear detail the Blessed Mother s appearances to Lucia dos Santos and Francisco and Jacinta Marto (now the Church s youngest canonized saints) and shares the background, sights, and sounds that draw you into the events as they unfolded over the course of the twentieth century.
More than just a history lesson about the apparitions, The Miracle and the Message shows us how to claim the message in our own lives and fully embrace what Mary offers the Church and the World.
Whether you know little about what happened in Fatima and want to learn more, or you already have a devotion to Our Lady of the Rosary, you will love The Miracle and the Message .
Includes eight pages of photos.

A beautiful account of the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima, and the lives of the trusting and faithful visionaries that saw her.
This book is a reminder of the love Our Lady has for us and that her only desire is to point us to her son Jesus that sinners might be saved. Pray the Rosary daily
