TRAPPITELLO - TAORMINA RICEVE LA MADONNA DI FATIMA

TRAPPITELLO - TAORMINA RECEIVES OUR LADY OF FATIMA "Every baptized person should pass on what he has received" Pope Leo XIV. Following the words of the Holy Father, the Heralds of the Gospel, in their Marian missions, accompanying the pilgrim statue of Our Lady of Fatima, overflow with enthusiasm, dynamism and courage in transmitting faith in Jesus and Mary. A tangible example was the mission carried out at the parish of "Sacred Heart of Jesus" in Trappitello, in the province of Messina, which lasted from October 16th to 19th, during which there were many moments of evangelization and promotion of prayer, charity towards the most needy, and personal and community conversion. The parish priest Antonino Tricomi, vicar forane of the vicariate of Taormina – Val d'Alcantara, participated in every planned initiative, leaving the Heralds complete freedom to structure the organization of these days. There were interspersed events: meetings with students from all levels of school, processions, visits to the sick and workplaces, Eucharistic adoration, a vicarious Marian vigil, Marian catechesis for children in catechism and adults, Eucharistic celebrations, lauds, vespers, compline, moments of fellowship—in short, nothing was missing! Everyone, in their own small way, contributed to the Virgin Mary's ability to touch the hearts of her children. How many graces rained down! At the end of the four intense days of the mission, so much joy and gratitude for the moments shared could be seen on the faces of the people, so as to continue what has been done, Fr. Tonino welcomed the Heralds' initiative to entrust four icons of the Immaculate Heart of Mary of Fatima to four couples from the community to launch the permanent mission MARY QUEEN OF HEARTS. We hope that many families will join the initiative to make their homes a "domestic church."
