Catholic devotion dedicated the month of May in a special way to Mary, the Blessed Virgin Mother of God. It was on the 13th day of May of the year 1917 that Our Blessed Lady began her appearances to the three shepherd children of Fatima. All of those faithful to Jesus Christ should rededicate themselves to the Immaculate Heart of His blessed and beloved Mother during this month. O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee!
