Public Viewing – FIFA World Cup in Brazil

/in

The FIFA World Cup is after the Olympic Games the biggest sporting event of the world.

For the first time in Dumaguete will be a public viewing of the first 2 or 3 daily matches on the Rizal Boulevard. Only the 6:00 am game can’t be shown due to upcoming traffic and street-noise.

While the games are to a rather unholy time with the first always starting at midnight and the last ending around 8:00am, there might be still some guys interested or drop by while doing their nightly exercise. Of course drinks and snacks will be also available.

History of International Pilgrim Virgin Statue of Our Lady of Fatima

The world-famous International Pilgrim Virgin Statue of Our Lady of Fatima was sculpted in 1947 by Jose Thedim, based on the description of Sr. Lucia, one of the three young seers who saw Our Lady each month from May to October 1917 in Fatima, Portugal.

On October 13, 1947, in the presence of some 150,000 pilgrims, the statue was blessed by the Bishop of Leiria at Fatima, Portugal to be the pilgrim, the traveler.

Sent out to bring the Message of Fatima to the world, the International Pilgrim Virgin Statue has traveled the world many times, visiting more than 100 countries, including Russia and Red China, bringing the great message of hope, “the peace plan from heaven,” to millions of people. Many miracles and signal graces are reported wherever the statue travels including shedding tears many times.
