My Friends,
Some pictures and tid-bits of our most recent visit to one of our most favorite places... In the past when we lived in Niagara Falls, New York, 6 miles from here -I use to spend an infinite amount of hours in prayer here: Praying, working, serving Mass (Eucharistic Minister), writing, taking pictures... I love this place beyond any explanation of how wonderful it feels to be here in prayer: Our priests: (Barnabite Brothers) -Fr. Julio Ciavaglia, CRSP –a blessed most insightful priest (who is dearly loved by many, including me) and Fr. Peter Calabrese CRSP –his wisdom and biblical knowledge is incredible (I admire him a great deal)… Check out his bible study.

“Since 1954, Our Lady of Fatima Shrine has become a place of natural
beauty, art, communal prayer, and renewal to thousands who visit the unique
buildings and grounds each year. The magnificence and natural beauty of the
Shrine is highlighted by an awe-inspiring Dome Basilica covered with two layers
of glass and Plexiglas, with a contour of the Northern Hemisphere of the globe.
The impressive approach to the Basilica is down the Avenue of the Saints (over
one hundred life-size marble statues represent Saints from every race and walk
of life) and around the serenity of the Rosary Pool. Two flights of stairs,
with 63 steps, lead to the top of the Dome, where, in graceful majesty, stands
a huge statue of Our Lady of Fatima. The statue, carved from Vermont granite,
is 13 feet high and weighs ten tons. From the top of the Dome, visitors can
view the entire Shrine grounds and surrounding countryside.” ~straight from the website: http://www.fatimashrine.com/index1.html
