Marian devotion
Jacinta, the little martyr of love
Fatima, Portugal
Jacinta Marto was the smallest of the three seers of Fatima and died at the age of 9 offering her suffering for sinners.
Main data
Jacinta was a happy girl who loved to dance and play. But after the apparitions, it changed completely. He made sacrifices constantly: he did not eat flesh, he prayed the Rosary until late, and offered his headaches for sinners. When she got flu, she was taken to the hospital. The doctor said he had to operate without anesthesia because he was too weak.
Jacinta died on 20 February 1920, at the age of 9. It was canonized by Pope Francis in 2017, along with his brother Francis.
