Pilgrim Virgin Statue
Pilgrim Virgin Statue (PVS) Church to Home VisitationÂ
Our Communal First Saturdays Apostolate Chapter is offering opportunities to host the Pilgrim Virgin Statue, (PVS) of Our Lady of Fatima to families in their homes.  Â
The PVS travels from the parish church to the home following Holy Mass with the purpose of bringing about the Enthronement of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in the home. By the PVS, Our Lady leads the family to the Sacred Heart of Jesus through the enthronement of the image of the Sacred Heart of Jesus to represent that the Sacred Heart of Jesus truly reigns by love over our homes and in our hearts as King and Friend. The Image of the Sacred Heart is enthroned in a special place in the home to also encourage the daily prayer of the domestic church. By the return of the PVS to the church, our Lady leads the family to the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus in the Mass. This visitation of Our Lady by her Pilgrim Virgin statue gives a visible sign and witness that all evangelization flows forth from and returns to the Eucharistic celebration, in which we find the “source and summit “of our Christian life. An order of devotion is also provided for the home.
