December 29, 2010. Pope Benedict XVI’s journey to Portugal marked the month of May. The pope travelled to the Shrine of Our Lady of Fatima to celebrate the ten year anniversary of the beatification of Jacinta and Francisco, two of the three shepherds to whom the Virgin Mary appeared.
Benedict XVI
“The Virgin Mary came down from heaven to remind us of the Gospel’s truths that are a source of hope for a human race, void of love and without hope of salvation.”
