3 Children of Fatima

On this day in 1917, Our Lady told the 3 children, Lucia, Jacinta, and Francisco: "Recite the rosary every day to obtain peace for the world and the end of the war." When the children asked if they would go to Heaven, Our Lady said yes for the 2 girls, and for Francisco specifically she said, "Him too, but he will have to say many rosaries." Francisco died at age 10 of influenza, in the year 1919.
