Our Lady of Fatima Anniversary

In celebration of the centennial anniversary of the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima, a statue of Our Lady of

Fatima will be placed in the Adoration Chapel on the 13th of each month from May 2017 to October 2017.

Pope Francis is granting an opportunity to receive a special plenary indulgence. One way of receiving this

indulgence is to "visit with devotion an image of Our Lady of Fatima solemnly displayed for public veneration

in any church, oratory, or adequate place, during the days of the anniversary of the apparitions (the 13th of

each month, from May to October 2017)."

Fourth - Seventh grade students attend Eucharistic Adoration this week.

Fr. Bryan met with 4th and 7th

grade students today. He shared his

thoughts on Eucharistic Adoration

and encouraged them to attend. He

gave them some ideas of what to

read or pray about during this spe-

cial time.
