The three children were Lcia dos Santos and her cousins Jacinta and Francisco Marto. On May 13, 1917, ten year old Lcia dos Santos and her cousins Jacinta and Francisco Marto were herding sheep at a location in their home village of Ftima, Portugal. Lcia described seeing a woman "brighter than the sun, shedding rays of light clearer and stronger than a crystal ball filled with the most sparkling water and pierced by the burning rays of the sun." Further appearances were reported to have taken place on the thirteenth day of the month in June and July. The general Message of Fatima is not complicated. Its requests are:
1. Prayer Our Lady is calling us to pray more. Just like what God wants us to do, Mama Mary is reminding all of us to pray. Our Lady stressed the importance of praying the Rosary. We must pray, especially the Rosary. By this frequent prayer of the Rosary, we will get the graces we need to overcome sin. 2. Repentance Our Lady is calling us to repent from our sins and do good to others, both in small and big things. 3. Purity of intentions Every time we pray to God, through the intercession of Mama Mary, we must be pure in our intentions as we ask for all them. How do we know if our intentions are pure? If it is for the good of many. In this special occasion, may we always ask for the intercession of Our Lady of Fatima. Just like Lucia, Jacinta and Francisco, may we be children of God who do good things to please God.

Fifth Mystery: Losing and finding of the Child Jesus in the Temple
"Now every year his parents went to Jerusalem for the festival of the Passover. And when he was twelve years old, they went up as usual for the festival. When the festival was ended and they started to return, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem, but his parents did not know it. Assuming that he was in the group of travellers, they went a days journey. Then they started to look for him among their relatives and friends. When they did not find him, they returned to Jerusalem to search for him. After three days they found him in the temple, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions. And all who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers. When his parents saw him they were astonished; and his mother said to him, Child, why have you treated us like this? Look, your father and I have been searching for you in great anxiety. He said to them, Why were you searching for me? Did you not know that I must be in my Fathers house? 50But they did not understand what he said to them. Then he went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was obedient to them. His mother treasured all these things in her heart. And Jesus increased in wisdom and in years, and in divine and human favour." PRAYER: Mary, our beloved mother, thank you for showing us how to be a good witness by having a humble heart and spirit, always acknowledging God in everything. You were given the privilege to witness first the work of God through His Son, and yet, you all kept it in your heart. Teach us to be humble in spirit, that we may never acknowledge our talents and the things that were good at as ours, but acknowledged them as privilege from the Lord. You are our role model, and we desire to follow you. Amen.
