International Pilgrim Virgin Statue US Tour for Peace

In honor of the 100th anniversary of the Marian Apparitions at Fatima, the world-famous International Pilgrim Virgin Statue of Fatima has embarked on a 21 month pilgrimage called the “US Tour for Peace” across the United States.  The statue will be traveling east of the Mississippi in 2016 and west of the Mississippi in 2017 “in a nationwide call to prayer and penance for peace in our nation and conversion of hearts.”    You can request the statue make a stop at your parish by contacting Patrick Sabat at 219-218-8991 or at psabat@bluearmy.com  Please note that permission from your Bishop is required for the statue to visit your diocese.  The schedule is subject to frequent change without notice so please make sure you are checking with the church directly before finalizing your plans.

PRAYER FOR THE U.S. TOUR
O Queen of the Rosary, Sweet Virgin of Fatima,
who has deigned to appear in the land of
Portugal, we beg you to watch over our dear
homeland and assure its moral and spiritual revival.
Bring back peace to all the nations of the world
so that all, our own nation in particular, may be
happy to call you their Queen and the Queen of peace. Amen.
Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for our country.
Our Lady of Fatima, obtain for all humanity a lasting peace.
