Set against the backdrop of the charming town of Fatima, this is the story of how Jacinta overcame persecution and suffering at the hands of strangers and family, as well as her own selfishness, to become one of the most selfless saints of our day. Written shortly after the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima, this account is assembled from the living memories of eyewitnesses and on the words of Lucia, who was interviewed for this book.
Jacinta Marto, newly canonized in March 2017, bore a childlike enthusiasm to fulfill Mary's request to the seers of Fatima, that they love God and offer reparation for sin. The atoning love consumed her life. Cardinal Humberto S. Medeiros beautifully captures and shares the beautiful character of this littlest, most innocent and fiercely loving saint and the power of her intercession.
