Gospel Verse, Jn 14:6:I am the way and the truth and the life, says the Lord; no one comes to the Father except through me.The Blessed Virgin Mary is venerated under this title Our Lady of Fatima following apparitions to three shepherd children — Lucia, Jacinta and Francisco — in Portugal in 1917. The message of Fatima includes a call to conversion of heart, repentance from sin and a dedication to the Blessed Virgin Mary, especially through praying the Rosary. This optional memorial is new to the USA liturgical calendar and is inscribed on May 13.
