This May 13 is celebrated on the day of the Virgin of Fatima Internationally, one of the most significant Marian advocations for various Christian and foreigners.
Its history begins when three pastor children appear six times – Lucía, Jacinta and Francisco – as well as other people, in the Cova da Iria, Fatima, Portugal. The devotion to Our Lady of the Rosary of Fatima originated from the revelations of the Mother of God to the three little shepherds:
“I ask you to come to this place every day 13, at noon, for six months and I will tell you who I am”, Announced the Virgin of Fatima to the three children.
According to the Catholic site Ewtnthis first meeting occurred on May 13, 1917, which is why this invocation is celebrated on that date.
