November 1
Nossa Senhora do Bom Sucesso, Cacilhas, Almada, Setúbal, Lisboa,
Portugal
 The great earthquake of November 1, 1755, which devastated Lisbon,
forced the Tejo River up the roads to Cacilhas nearby. But the waters
withdrew after people prayed before the image of Our Lady. Ever since, an
annual celebration honors the local Patroness, Our Lady of the Good Event,
with penitential rites, concerts, and a procession on All Saints Day,
November 1. (Photo from the church's blog, "Festas do 2007," Paróquia
