WYD Day 4
4 Ağustos 2023, Portekiz
This morning (following Mass), Miki and I travelled back to the aquarium to try and get into a WYD presentation.

We watched an hour presentation about the history of our ocean and how human activity is impacting it. Following the talk we explored the exhibits!

They had an incredibly large ocean tank with fish, sharks and rays. Off to the side they had other exhibits featuring penguins and my personal favourite, the otters.

In the evening we travelled to the ‘Stadium of Light’ for a concert called The Change. We were especially lucky as we got to see Matt Maher singing ‘The Lord's Prayer’, a classroom favourite.Okumaya devam et

WYD Day 5/6
5 Ağustos 2023, Portekiz ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C
Each WYD there is an evening Vigil on the Saturday night followed by a sleep-out. This year the event was held at Campo da Graça.

It was an extremely hot walk and when we arrived at 3pm, the sun would shine brightly for another 6hrs.

At 8:30pm Pope Francis (Papa Fransisco) arrived! It was an incredible experience to attended a service with that many people! Follow the vigil there was music and a movie until late.

A 7am wake up call was played by Padre Guilherme - a DJ!

Pope Francis arrived again around 8:30am and at 9am we had our final WYD Mass.

After a very hot walk back to the station and then on a loaded train, we made it back to the hotel.Okumaya devam et

Fatima
7 Ağustos 2023, Portekiz ⋅ ☀️ 33 °C
Today we arrived in Fatima. I will admit, I knew very little about this town before arriving. Upon our arrival we visited the Sanctuary which is home to 2 Basilicas and 1 incredible story.

The story of the Our Lady of Fátima miracle begins on May 13, 1917. Three peasant children, Francisco, Jacinta, and Lucia were tending to their family’s sheep. The children under 10 years old were blessed with the presence of the Virgin Mary, Mother of Jesus. In Portugal, she is also known as Fátima. The children saw this beautiful woman, dressed in white and standing above a bush. The Virgin Mary told the children that world peace would occur if they spread the godly message of prayer.

She visited the young children on the 13th for the next six months. She revealed to the children three secrets. The children were told to make sacrifices to save sinners. They were tight cords around their wrists and did not drink water on hot days. Lucia told the villagers that Mary asked them to say the Rosary every day in order to keep world peace.

News of the apparitions spread throughout the village, some believing the children and some not so much. The Blessed Virgin Mary promised the children that one day a prophecy would occur that would show the village people that they were being truthful. These events culminated in the sixth final apparition “Miracle of the Sun”.

In 2017, Pope Francis went on to officially recognize the Miracle of the Sun and even canonized two of the children, Francisco Marto and Jacinta Marto, over 100 years after their death. This means that Pope Francis made the children officially saints!
Lucia, the cousin of Jacinta and Francisco Marto passed away in 2005 and is being considered for possible beatification. This is the step right before sainthood and essentially signifies that she is blessed in heaven. However, this process could only legally start in 2010, at least five years after her death, and is not yet finished. Pope Francis has visited the shrine of Our Lady of Fatima multiple times.Okumaya devam et

The Three Secrets of Fatima
7 Ağustos 2023, Portekiz ⋅ 🌙 27 °C
Mary told the children the first secret in July of 1917.

The first secret described Hell as a horrible place where sinners’ souls burned. Mary said that to save these souls, acts of prayer and sacrifice were necessary.

The second secret prophesized the end of the First World War, but also the outbreak of the Second World War if sinning was to continue. Mary also called for the Consecration of Russia or else peace would not occur. Many say she also predicted the rise and fall of Communism.

The third secret was not revealed that easily. In 1943 Lucia was ill and asked by the Bishop to reveal it, but she said God had not authorized her to do so. The Bishop still ordered her to write it down. Lucia decided to write it in a sealed envelope that could only be opened in 1960. In 1960, the Vatican issued a press release stating that the third secret would remain sealed forever. For years, Christians around the world speculated on the content of the third secret and some even feared it could refer to worldwide nuclear annihilation.

However, the secret was released in 2000 by Pope John Paul II. The Vatican said the secret spoke of the 20th-century persecution of Christians, leading to the failed assassination attempt of Pope John Paul II in 1981.

The text revealed said that Mary spoke of a “Bishop clothed in white” who prays faithfully. In her vision, he was making his way towards the cross passing through the bodies of those who were martyred, like priests and other religious people. This speaks to the prosecution of Christians. He then falls to the ground dead after hearing gunfire. This message was allegedly confirmed by Sister Lucia.Okumaya devam et

Stations of the Cross

Our final day in Fatima started with a Mass in a small chapel beneath the Holy Trinity Basilica.

We then walked the stations of the cross that lead to the small village where Lucia, Francisco and Jacinta grew up. Finally, we visited the church where they were baptised.Okumaya devam et
