Pilgrimage and Picnic - Friday, June 13

All are invited to Our Lady of Fatima on Friday, June 13, for an evening of faith, fellowship, and food.


The evening will begin with a Eucharistic Procession at 5:00 PM, starting in the main church, continuing around the church grounds, and concluding with Benediction at the church. The Annual Parish Picnic will follow at 6:15 PM under the Fatima Pavilion.


All are encouraged to bring a dish to share:
A–F:
 Salads
G–O:
 Side Dishes
P–Z:
 Desserts


For those unable to attend the procession in person, a personal pilgrimage is encouraged. Consider walking the Maryville-Alcoa Greenway, a 21.2-mile paved trail connecting parks and neighborhoods in Alcoa and Maryville. This scenic trail offers a peaceful setting for reflection and prayer. Parking is available at various points along the trail, including Bicentennial Park and Sandy Springs Park in Maryville.


Passports for the pilgrimage will be available, and a stamping station will be set up at the picnic for participants to get their passports stamped.


Come enjoy this joyful summer gathering with the parish community.


As part of the 75th Anniversary celebration, pilgrims are invited to join each month on the 13th for special events honoring the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima. Fatima Pilgrimage Passports will be available, and a stamping station will be set up at the picnic. Those who collect all six stamps will receive a special recognition at the November 22 celebration.


Todos están invitados a Nuestra Señora de Fátima el viernes 13 de junio para una tarde de fe, comunidad y comida.

La celebración comenzará con una Procesión Eucarística a las 5:00 PM, iniciando en la iglesia principal, recorriendo los alrededores de la parroquia y concluyendo con la Bendición en la iglesia. El Picnic Parroquial Anual comenzará a las 6:15 PM bajo el Pabellón de Fátima.


Se anima a todos a traer un platillo para compartir:

A–F: Ensaladas
G–O:
 Acompañamientos
P–Z:
 Postres


Para quienes no puedan asistir en persona a la procesión, se anima a realizar una peregrinación personal. Se sugiere caminar por el Maryville-Alcoa Greenway, una ruta pavimentada de 21.2 millas que conecta parques y vecindarios en Alcoa y Maryville. Este sendero escénico ofrece un espacio tranquilo para la oración y la reflexión. Hay estacionamiento disponible en varios puntos del recorrido, incluidos el Bicentennial Park y el Sandy Springs Park en Maryville.


Los pasaportes de peregrinación estarán disponibles, y habrá una estación de sellado durante el picnic para que los participantes puedan marcar su participación.


Ven a disfrutar de esta alegre reunión de verano con la comunidad parroquial.


Como parte de la celebración del 75° aniversario, se invita a los peregrinos a participar cada día 13 del mes en eventos especiales en honor a las apariciones de Nuestra Señora de Fátima. Los Pasaportes de Peregrinación de Fátima estarán disponibles y se ofrecerá una estación de sellado durante el picnic. Quienes completen los seis sellos recibirán un reconocimiento especial en la celebración del 22 de noviembre.
