I visited Fatima on October 12 and 13th, 1988. The first morning I decided to walk to
Aljustral to see the home of Lucia and also Francisco and Jacinta. On my way I noticed
children re=enacting the events of the visitation of 1917. I stopped a moment and
marvelled at their dedication.
I later found myself in the sanctuary where I met many English Speaking residents of
Fatima. I recounted the childrens re=enactment scene in the field bordering the
plaza. They were astonished! They questioned me closely. Yes they had sheep.
Yes they wore shawls and the description of Francisco*s Hat astounded them.
They were convinced I was in a state of imagination or euphoria. Does anyone know
\whether children do the re-enactment?
Thank you
