Fatima Fact:   On June 17, 1917 (the second apparition of Our Lady), the children with a small group of people had just finished the Rosary.  They saw once more the flash reflecting the light which was approaching.  The next moment, Our Lady was above the holmoak, excatly the same as in May.  Lucia asked, "What do you want of me?"  The Lady answered, "I wish you to come here on the 13th of next month, to pray the Rosary every day, and to learn to read.  Later I will tell you what I want."  Lucia asked for the cure of a sick person.  The Lady replied, "If he is converted, he will be cured during the year."  Then Lucia asked the Lady to take them to heaven.  "Yes, I will take Jacinta and Francisco soon.  But you are to stay here some time longer.  Jesus wishes to make use of you to make me known and loved.  He wants to establish in the world devotion ot my Immaculate Heart." This Fatima message is brought to you by
the Legion of Mary.
