The International Pilgrim Virgin Statue of Our Lady of Fatima will be touring the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Oklahoma City through August.
The statue will arrive in Oklahoma on Saturday, Aug. 2 at St. Peter Catholic Church in Guymon.
The mission of the tour is to spread Our Lady of Fatima’s message that was given to the children of Fatima and to bring the presence of Mary to people, according to the Sooner Catholic, the official archdiocese newspaper.
During the presentation at Oklahoma parishes, a tour spokesman will discuss the statue and the message of Fatima. Each parish has its own schedule of events that will occur when the statue arrives.
