Dear Brothers and Sisters,

My pastoral visit to Portugal this past week enabled me to honor Our Lady of Fatima and to pay homage to the distinguished history of Christian faith and evangelizing zeal of the Portuguese people.

The visit began with a Mass celebrated in the Terreiro do Paço in Lisbon, where I urged Portugal's Christians to carry on this great work of evangelization in our own day. The heart of my journey was my pilgrimage to Fatima for the 10th anniversary of the beatification of the shepherd children Francisco and Jacinta.
