FatimaForToday.com offers books, videos for all ages and interests
SAN FRANCISCO, CA (May 13, 2011) - Ninety-four years ago today, three Portuguese youngsters were contemplating the miraculous apparition they'd just experienced. From that day forward, those children - and the tiny village of Fatima - offered the world a new message of hope through the Virgin Mary's fervent call to prayer, penance and conversion.
On the 94th anniversary of Our Lady's first appearance to Francisco and Jacinta Marto and their cousin, Lucia dos Santo, Ignatius Press today launched a website, FatimaForToday.com, devoted to Our Lady of Fatima and available resources for anyone interested in exploring the mysteries and blessings of Fatima.
FatimaForToday.com provides quick access to a variety of books and videos on Our Lady of Fatima, and it enables parishes and organizations to schedule Fatima-related events - including visits by Fr. Andrew Apostoli, C.F.R., one of the world's foremost experts on Fatima.
"We are thrilled and humbled by the opportunity to bring FatimaForToday.com to life on the 94th anniversary of Our Lady's first appearance at Fatima," said Ignatius Press President Mark Brumley. "The message of Fatima is as relevant and important today as it was when Mary first presented it to the children. We hope that the new website will support that message by serving as the source for information and resources covering every aspect of Fatima."
"The message of Fatima has often been described as a brief summary of the essentials of Christian living," Fr. Apostoli writes in his new book, Fatima for Today. "Our lady of Fatima has given us a great reminder of these essentials for our difficult times."
In addition to Fr. Apostoli's book, the new website provides access to the groundbreaking film The 13th Day and the follow-up docu-drama Finding Fatima. Also available is information on a booklet What Happened at Fatima, published by Catholic Truth Society, and a variety of other books and videos that will bring Fatima to life for people of all ages. There's even a Fatima coloring book for children!
Fr. Apostoli, a founding member of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, has been teaching and preaching retreats and parish missions for several decades. He hosted the EWTN TV special "Our Lady of Fatima and First Saturday Devotion," and Catholic TV developed and aired a three-part series on Fatima for Today earlier this year.
For more information about www.FatimaForToday.com or to schedule an interview with Ignatius Press President Mark Brumley or Fr. Andrew Apostoli, C.F.R, please contact Alexis Walkenstein with The Maximus Group at 678-990-9032.
