ble 017

New from YouCat Series

“The tragedies foretold in Fatima did not come 1917 2017 to an end with the demise of Communism.

The crisis has not been resolved. From a certain point of view it is still as serious as it ever was, as it is primarily a crisis of faith, hence a moral and social crisis.” – Pope Benedict XVI The apparitions in 1917 of the Blessed Virgin Mary to three children in Fatima are perhaps the most important private revelations in the history of the Church. To celebrate the 100th anniversary of these important apparitions and messages for the modern world, the renowned author-photographer team Grzegorz Górny and Janusz Rosikon travelled throughout Europe to tell the story of Fatima and its impact on the destiny of

both individuals and nations. With stunningly beautiful colour photographs on every page, and in-depth detail and insights on all aspects of the story and message of Fatima, they probe the mysteries of Fatima and their continued relevance for our modern age.

“A very special book on the whole story, messages and meaning of Fatima.”

Fr. Andrew Apostoli, C.F.R.
