Jacinta Marto
Saint Jacinta Marto was one of the three children who witnessed the apparitions of the Virgin Mary at Fátima, Portugal, in 1917. She showed profound faith and a deep love for Jesus and Mary, offering many sacrifices for sinners. Jacinta died at just nine years old, succumbing to the Spanish flu in 1920. She was canonized by Pope Francis in 2017 alongside her brother, Francisco.
