LISBON, Portugal - Sister Lucia Marto, the last of three children who claimed to have seen the Virgin Mary in a series of 1917 apparitions in the town
of Fatima, has died, Portuguese media reported. She was 97....
Lucia and two of her cousins, siblings Jacinta and Francisco, said in 1917 that the Virgin Mary had been appearing to them once a month and predicting
events, such as world wars, the reemergence of Christianity in Russia, and one that Church officials say foretold the 1981 attempted assassination of
Pope John Paul
Here's the story in its entirety.

As many of you may or may not know, the 3 visions that the girls had are considered "authenticated" prophecies but the third and most disputed and
perhaps the most interesting one was kept secret for several decades by the Roman Catholic Church. Here's an excellent link about the third secret of
Fatima.
