I've traveled to Fátima in 1998 and 2002. What a blessing to have visited what Blessed John Paul II once called Mary's "throne" on earth. Mary's message at Fátima is one for today as well... it was there she identified herself as the Lady of the Rosary, and its largely why I pray the rosary today, among other reasons.
Any time I think I might be faltering in my devotion to Our Lady and the rosary, something like this really lifts me up and gently reminds me to pick it up again...
I am a Catholic wife and mother of 3 young adults. I write about Catholic subject matter here and on numerous Catholic websites elsewhere. I love sharing my enthusiasm for the riches of our faith in person in parishes, at conferences, or on retreat.
I have a Masters in Theology but I remain forever a student at heart, for the more I know, the more I realize I have so much more to know!
