Himala sa Fatima docu on DZMM

-

DZMM anchor and resident counselor Bro. Jun Banaag tackles the Filipinos’ devotion to the Virgin Mary as he revisits the different sites of her apparition­s in the special documentar­y Himala sa Fatima tomorrow, Oct. 13 at 9 p.m.

The documentar­y, which coincides with the 102nd anniversar­y of the Blessed Virgin’s last apparition, will air on DZMM Radyo Patrol 630 on AM radio, DZMM TeleRadyo on cable and ABS-CBN TVplus and online via iWant.

Bro. Jun joins a group of pilgrims to Fatima, Portugal where three shepherd children — Jacinta, Francisco and Lucia — witnessed six apparition­s of the Holy Mother in 1917, changing their lives forever.

The Blessed Virgin spoke to them about the importance of penance, praying the Holy Rosary, and the belief in miracles, which they relayed to tens of thousands of people who surrounded them during these apparition­s. The documentar­y reflects on the messages of the apparition­s, its secrets and impact to the world, including the Philippine­s.

The nation traces its devotion to Mama Mary after the Spaniards arrived in our shores in the 16th century. To this day, many Filipinos continue to revere Mary and believe in the power of her intercessi­on. Bro. Jun features two of them in the documentar­y, a woman who lost her husband and sister simultaneo­usly, and a Marian devotee whose faith was tested when he was diagnosed with cancer.

Join Bro. Jun as he looks back at who Mary is to the Filipino faithful and her role as the mother of Jesus in the special DZMM documentar­y Himala sa Fatima.

There will be replays on Oct. 15, 16 and 17, at 11 p.m. on the Dr. Love Radio Show timeslot and on Oct. 25, 1:30 p.m. to 3 p.m.
