Photos: Thousands pray for end to pandemic in Portugal’s Fatima shrine

About 7,500 Catholic faithful gathered at a massive outdoor venue on Wednesday evening, May 12, at the Fatima Sanctuary in Portugal to mark the 104th anniversary of the first of three reported visions of the Virgin Mary, also known as Our Lady.

The Catholic Church teaches the Virgin Mary appeared to three Portuguese children in 1917 in Fatima, which was then an impoverished farming village. Pope Francis made two of the shepherd children saints in 2017.
