Care for the Pilgrims

OM International

Once again a small team will show love and care to pilgrims visiting Fatima in Portugal this week.  Every year thousands of people travel to the site where three shepherd children described the appearance of the Virgin Mary in the early 20th Century. Desperate for healing or forgiveness, the pilgrims hope that their visit to the shrine will bring about the answer to their prayers.

Previously, OM teams have provided hot drinks and a chance to chat and rest for many visitors during the annual Fatima pilgrimage. And thanks to the help of a local Bible College, a team will be able to do this again from May 10 - 14. Please pray that many will learn about Jesus love and grace that is offered as a free gift and that God will provide many opportunities for the team to offer new hope to the pilgrims.
