Friends of the Rosary,
On September 13, 1917, the Virgin Mary appeared in Fatima for the fifth time. Over 30,000 people gathered in Cova da Iria, Portugal.
“The crowd prays all the time… Suddenly, cries of surprise and joy are heard. Thousands of arms are raised towards a point in the sky… I raise my eyes, and to my surprise, I see clearly and distinctly a globe of light advancing from east to west, gliding slowly and majestically through the air. I was convinced it was the Blessed Virgin,” wrote Sor Lucia, one of the three shepherds.
She asked to the Blessed Mother:
– “What do you want of me?”
You must pray! Continue the Rosary, my children. Say it every day that the war may end. In October, Our Lord will come, as will Our Lady of Sorrows and Our Lady of Mt. Carmel. Saint Joseph will appear with the Child Jesus to bless the world.
God is pleased with your sacrifices, but He does not want you to wear the cords to bed. Keep them on during the day.
– “I have the petitions of many for your help. Will you assist a little girl who is deaf and dumb?”
She will improve within the year.
– “And what conversions have some asked to bring about? The cures of the sick ones?”
Some I will cure, and some I will not. In October I will perform a miracle so that all may believe.
With these last words to the three visionaries, Our Lady rose and disappeared into the heavens.
- Ave Maria!
- Jesus, I Trust In You!
Come, Holy Spirit, come!
To Jesus through Mary!
