Come & See Inspirations (C&SI)
C&SI - The Story of Fatima - 12 May 2024 (S04E25b) (podcast excerpt)
On this weeks podcast we are continuing our small series on different Marian devotions and shrines which we are going to be covering for the month of May - as of course in Catholic tradition May is the month of Mary!
On this weeks podcast we are delving back into the archive to an interview we did in May 2017 with Michael Keating to share the story of Our Lady of Fatima on what was the 100th anniversary year of the apparitions. The Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God, appeared six times to three shepherd children near the town of Fatima, Portugal between May 13 and October 13, 1917. Appearing to the children, the Blessed Virgin told them that She had been sent by God with a message for every man, woman and child living in our century. The message of Our Lady, though reported in much detail and still the object of much discussion, was very simple. She asked the children to be faithful to the rosary and to the devotion to her Immaculate Heart, and she asked for the consecration of Russia and the world to herself, warning of the dangers to the world of continued wars. She emphasised the need for penance and she taught the children several prayers.
