It is day 2 of our Marian pilgrimage. We spent most of the day touring the city of Lisbon. We had the chance to see the very house where Jacinta stayed while very sick and prior to being brought to the Lisbon hospital where she died. We were truly blessed as we had the opportunity to be in the same room where Mother Mary appeared to her. The whole trip was already worth it just being there as we could almost feel the sanctity of the place.
The afternoon was also awesome as we visited and heard mass at the Church of the Holy Miracle in Santarem. We were able to almost touch the very relic of the Most Holy Miracle. Again, Father Ho mentioned in his homily the relevance of our site visits as one message of Fatima is also about Eucharistic preparation and that by taking the Holy communion, we are also doing reparation of our sins. We are now on the way to Fatima and tomorrow will be a great day as we will be actually at the shrine.
