Thus, being able to go to Portugal and actually be there at the place where our Lady appeared to the three children is unbelievable. Even knowing that Lucia, one of the youngsters, had lived long and left this world just recently, in 2005, is a wake-up call that everything indeed happened.
In Fatima, at the Chapel of Apparitions, the people of different nationalities sang this song, Salve Regina, with much reverence. That is after reciting the Holy Rosary together wherein the decades were said in various languages every night (including Tagalog).
Above is the chapel of apparitions (the small one inside), semi-enclosed in a glass structure. The reflection of an old olive tree is seen on the glass. The original tree, little by little disappeared when the people got a portion at a time as souvenir.Source:hojarce
My aim is to learn the song by the end of the year.
