Between May 13 and October 13, 1917, during World War I and the fomenting of the Bolshevik revolution, the [[Blessed Mother]] appeared six times to three shepherd children—Lucia, Francisco, and Jacinta—near Fátima, Portugal. She delivered her warning of the spread of [[Communism]] and outlined her plan to “bring peace to the world and an end to war” through daily recitation of the rosary, worldwide devotion to her Immaculate Heart and penance.
