In addition to this many modern Marian apparitions included prophecies in them about the world and about the local areas . The Fátima apparition in 1917 included a prophecy given by Mary to three children , that on October 13 , 1917 there would be a great miracle for all to see at Fátima , Portugal , and on that day tens of thousands of people headed to Fátima to see what would happen including newspaper journalists . Many witnesses , including journalists , claimed to see the sun " dance " in the sky in the afternoon of that day , exactly as the visionaries had predicted several months before . The Kibeho apparition in Rwanda in the 1980s included many prophecies about great violence and destruction that was coming , and the Rwandan genocide only ten years later was interpreted by the visionaries as the fulfilment of these prophecies Several miracles and a vision of the identity of the last 112 Popes were attributed to Saint Malachy , the Archbishop of Armagh ( 1095 – 1148 )
