Pilgrimage to Fatima Shrine in Holliston, MA

Pilgrimage to Fatima Shrine in Holliston, MA

To commemorate the Centennial  Anniversary of Our Lady of Fatima, the Maronite Servants of Christ the Light facilitated and led a pilgrimage to the Shrine of Our Lady of Fatima in Holliston, MA on Sunday, May 21st. The Shrine is maintained by the Xaverian Missionaries in the U.S.A. We were joined by families from St. Anthony of the Desert parish as we prayed the rosary at a beautiful outdoor shrine. This Shrine has an enormous rosary made of very large stones, held together by a chain donated by the U.S. Navy. On each of the large stones, appears the “Hail Mary” prayer written in different languages. Following the rosary, we gathered together in the  Church where Fr. Rocco offered Exposition and Benediction of the Holy Mysteries, and we offered Maronite Evening Prayer (Ramsho).
