About the Pilgrim Virgin Statue of Fatima:

The world-famous International Pilgrim Virgin Statue of Fatima is recognized as the primary way in which the message of Fatima spread throughout the world and continues today.

Sculpted by Jose Thedim—“the Michelangelo of Portugal”—the statue has been traveling internationally since 1947.

On October 13, 1947, in the presence of 200,000 pilgrims at Fatima, the statue was blessed by the Bishop of Lieria-Fatima and commissioned to serve as the Pilgrim Virgin.

The bishop prayed that Mary herself accompany the statue wherever it goes. Millions of people have felt the presence of Mary through the image.

She was then flown to America, where she was crowned in Ottawa, Canada, and began a 2-year tour of Canada and the U.S.

She has since traveled to over 100 countries, claiming her dominion and carrying Fatima’s blessings and urgent message to people worldwide.
