Come join us on Thursday, May 17th @ 7:30pm in Pedata Hall as we celebrate the month of Mary with the Warner Brothers 1952 classic, "The Miracle of Our Lady of Fatima."
Each year Christian believers from around the world throng the Portuguese village of Fatima. Here they worship God - and remember the children who first heralded The Miracle of Our Lady of Fatima.
This much-loved movie thoughtfully recreates the 1917 events that brought hope and new religious fervor to a war-ravaged world. Three peasant youths see a vision: a woman in a cloud of light offering words of faith and prophecy. They face skepticism and torture - but are soon embraced by faithful masses drawn by the promise of a miracle. Director John Brahm skillfully balances simplicity and spectacle, all powerfully supported by Max Steiner's Oscar-nominated score. As the New York Journal-American observed, the movie "lights up the screen like a ray of sunshine." Come Hungry! Lite refreshments will be served. Hope to see you there.
