The
clouds of smoke from hundreds of thousands of candles fill the square
at Fátima, Portugal, obliterating from view the top
of the church. People hold vigil on the night of the anniversary of
the apparition, in the hope that history will repeat itself. On 13
May 1917 three shepherd children had a vision from the Virgin, saying
that if her requests were granted there would be peace on earth. On
the 13th of each month between May and October they had visions, culminating
in the miracle of the 13 October, when seventy thousand people witnesses
a 'dancing sun'. |
