The logo of the World Apostolate of Fatima is used all over the world. It is the symbol of peace through prayer as prophesied by Our Lady of Fatima.

Two doves form praying hands. They hold the Rosary which World Apostolate of Fatima members pray daily. They are surrounded by the scapular, which is the sign of consecration to the Immaculate Heart and which Our Lady held from the sky at the climax of the miracle of the sun at Fatima in October, 13 th, 1917. That great miracle was performed so that everyone may believe.

   
 


The Latin words which accompany the symbol mean “One world praying”. This is to say that a world that prays together will be a world united. If we fulfil the requests of Our Lady for prayer and penance, we will experience the fulfilment of her great promise: “An era of peace to humankind”.

The doves forming hands in prayer have a twofold significance. Doves are the symbol of peace. But they have a special significance with relation to Fatima.

On many occasions, white doves have flown from the sky to the base of the statues of Our Lady of Fatima and remained there for hours on end, even when the statues were being carried in pilgrimage.
The World Apostolate of Fatima’s symbol of the doves emphasizes therefore the intervention of God in the human history.
