International Pilgrim Virgin Statue of Our Lady of Fatima


Realizing that most of the world's people were not hearing about the Fatima Message, it was decided to send a statue on a teaching mission. Since 1947 the Pilgrim Statue has been traveling across the world bringing the presence of Mary and Her message, Miracles of conversion and cures have occurred along the way.

Pope Pius XII, in his radio message to the Pilgrims at Fatima, May 13, 1951, reflected on Mary as Queen of the World and remarked that the Pilgrim Statue goes forth traveling as though to claim her dominion, "and the favors She performs along the way are such that we can hardly believe what we are seeing with our eyes."

An official documentation of Fatima said: "Never in the history of the Church have charismas descended in such abundance on the people of God as through the Pilgrim Virgin."

What is astonishing is the fact that, even in countries with a minority of Catholics, millions of people gathered for visits of this Holy Statue.
