Candlelight procession at Fatima
Posted: Sat August 30, 2008 05:16 PM UTC

We will be in Lisbon from October 11 thru the 15th. We would like to visit Fatima for the day on October 12 or 13. Is there a candlelight procession every day? If so, what time. The last bus leaves Fatima at 20:30. If we that does not work, then we would like to go on October 13 for the closing procession. Any help would be appreciated.

The candlelight procession is at 2200 of October 12.
On October 13, the celebrations start at 0700, but the final mass, with the ill blessing and goodbye procession begins at 1000.
Many people stay overnight in the grounds, praying, as there is a vigil.
As for transportation, there is a train (www.cp.pt) at 2152 and Tamega (a bus company: www.avtamega.pt) has one at 03:30, but it is better confirm this, as the timetables can change.

Greetings,
Helio
