Mary asked them to learn to read and write and to pray the rosary 147 to obtain peace for the world and the end of the war. 148 They were to pray for sinners and for the conversion of Russia. Jacinta and Francisco were beatified in 2000. Recommended in Seton Home Study Grade 4Author: Anne HeffernanPages: 103, Paperback Publisher: Pauline Books and Media ISBN: 0-8198-1155-6
