Beautiful depiction of Our Lady of the Praying Heart.
"She is Our Lady of Fatima, but she represents the life of all pilgrims. When they go to Fatima and to the Chapel of Apparitions, they have the goal of asking or thanking, and they always do so through prayer. It's so interesting to realize that when we arrive at the chapel, Our Lady is already praying with us and is on her knees to take our prayers to God," Father Joo Luís Silva, parish priest of Montargil.
"It's an image filled with sweetness. When we contemplate it, it's impossible not to feel love in our hearts, because the image has it all. If we stand still looking at the image, without saying anything and without anyone talking to us, just contemplating it, we are not the same person at the end of that moment of contemplation, I can assure you."
