Dear Parish Family,

Wow!  We have arrived in Fatima after a long and audruous trek.  Even though the flight was very long and tiring everything went well (except for my luggage being lost).   Immediately upon our arrival at Portugal we begin the sight seeing.  We toured the city of Lisbon and then went onto the Church of the Holy Miracle of Satarorem.  This was the sight of a Eucharist Miracle.  The pilgrims were able to see the Eucharist that had change visibly to Flesh up close and personal, adoring our Eucharistic Lord truly present there. 
Then we were able to have Holy Mass right there in this beautiful and very old Church.  EVen thought the youth (and adults) were very tired from lack of sleep during the flight, it was a very moving experience.  The Eucharistic Lord is our strength!!!
Today we spend the whole day at Fatima.  THis morning we will tour the shrine.  Holy Mass will be at 3pm at the Apparition Chapel.  And then tonight the youth will participate in the beautiful candle light procession (we already have our candles purchased!). 
Everyone is doing well.  We pray for you all.  Please continue to pray for us.  God bless.  Our Lady of Fatima Pray for Us!
