Would you like to have the pilgrim statue in your home for a     
couple weeks?  The pilgrim statue of Our Lady of Fatima is moved from home      
 to home every two weeks to allow families  in the St. Edward, St. Joseph and
St. Bridget parishes in the Mendon, Quincy, and Liberty Illinois area a special        
opportunity to reflect on Our Lady and pray for her intercessions.  This is a
beautiful statue and is 29 inches tall.

Please call the phone number listed below or use the "Contact
