Make Plans Today!
Parents and teachers are encouraged to gather their children and students and unite them with other children from all over the world in praying for peace in our families, in our nation, and in our world.
Father Chris Alar, M.I.C., of the Marians of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, will preside over the 15th Annual Worldwide Children's Eucharistic Holy Hour.
Children of the Eucharist and Young Missionaries of the Immaculate Heart of Mary work in spiritual partnership with the World Apostolate of Fatima International, a Public Association of the Faithful and Member of the Council of Laity. Their mission is to spread and promote the message of Our Lady of Fatima, along with Holy Hours of Adoration for children in imitation of Saint Francisco Marto, one of the three shepherd children of Fatima.
Children of the Eucharist Programs
Children of the Eucharist offers spiritual and evangelistic programs to guide children and youth of the world into responding to and living the messages given by the Angel of Peace and Our Blessed Mother at Fatima, Portugal.
These programs provide a simple framework to ignite the "flame of faith" in the hearts of children, as they are spiritually formed in the School of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, by following the way of the Little Shepherds of Fatima: Saint Francisco, Saint Jacinta, and Servant of God Lucia.
