Loca do Cabeço – Angel of Peace
Ourém
Em 1916, as 3 crianças estavam na Loca do Cabeço a pastorear, quando apareceu um jovem de mais ou menos 14 ou 15 anos, mais branco que a neve, dizendo: “Não temais, sou o Anjo da Paz, orai comigo: Meu Deus eu creio, adoro, espero e amo-vos.
In 1916, the three children were shepherding in Loca do Cabeço when a young man, about 14 or 15 years old, appeared, whiter than snow, saying: “Do not be afraid, I am the Angel of Peace, pray with me: My God, I believe, worship, hope and love you. I ask your forgiveness for those who do not believe, do not worship, do not hope and do not love you”. The children prayed three times, with their faces to the ground. Then they heard from the angel: “Pray like this. The hearts of Jesus and Mary are attentive to the voice of your supplications”. This prayer has always accompanied the little shepherds.
