Our Lady of Fatima: 100 Years of Stories, Prayers, and Devotions

A beautifully written book sure to pull heartstrings! Wonderfully written.

I have not as yet received the aforementioned books. Helen

I just finished my second reading of the book. I'm thankful that I did. On my first reading I didn't rush through it. I wanted to take in all that it offered. To my surprise, on the second reading I found things that I didn't remember from my first reading.

The book is well structured with a nice flow, is easy to read and spiritually educational. This was a treasure for the 100th anniversary of the Fatima apparitions of Our Lady.

I appreciate the in-depth description of the Apparitions and the very human experiences of the children Our Lady appeared to in Our Lady of Fatima by Donna-Marie Cooper O’Boyle*
The book describes how the children were doubted and interrogated and how they bravely continued to pray and do penance and receive the monthly apparitions.
At the end of each chapter, Donna includes A Time to Reflect, In My Own Life and Prayer. Reflecting on the experiences and responses of the children, the author prompts us to reflect and consider what God is calling each one of us to do, to reflect on the experiences in our own lives that have led us closer or further from God. The author includes prayer asking Jesus to guide us and open our hearts and follow Him.
I really like Donna’s style of writing. Her thorough accounts of the Apparitions combined with the thoughtful reflection prompts and prayer really help to relay the messages of Fatima and compel the reader to step up prayer life and devotion to the daily Rosary.
