The world-famous International Pilgrim Virgin Statue, which has been traveling for over 75 years, will be at Holy Trinity Church Tuesday, May 7th, 2024. (see schedule below) After being blessed by the Bishop of Leiria-Fatima, on October 13, 1947, the statue left Fatima and was flown to America to begin its tours. The bishop prayed that Our Lady’s presence would travel with it wherever she went. It was blessed again in 1952 by Pope Pius XII, who had crowned the original statue in Fatima as Queen of the World just a few years earlier.
On this 77th anniversary year, the mission of the Pilgrim Virgin Statue of Fatima continues the same, to bring the message of Fatima—the Peace Plan from Heaven—to a world in need. Our Lord told Sister Lucia, the oldest of the three seers at Fatima, that he had entrusted the peace of the world to the Immaculate Heart. The International Pilgrim Virgin Statue has visited more than 100 countries, including Russia and China, bringing Mary's powerful message of salvation and hope to millions of people. Countless favors and graces have been reported wherever the Virgin Statue has traveled. We hope you will come and experience the blessings of Our Lady during this special statue visitation, sponsored by the World Apostolate of Fatima, USA – Our Lady’s Blue Army. (www.bluearmy.com)
