NINTH DAY Intention

The Spiritual Welfare of our Children

          Oh Immaculate Heart of Mary, Mother of the Infant, Babe of Bethlehem, and Our Mother, en kindle in our hearts the spark of thy great love for little children. It was no innocent children that you deigned to appear, revealing the Message of Fatima, and charging them with its propagation. We know no better way to show our regard for them, dear Mother, than to offer our prayers for all children everywhere.
          Therefore, O Mother dear, we ask thee to watch over all children in all parts of the world, to guard and protect their homes, to preserve the schools wherein they learn, and to keep them from being tained with godless education. Direct them in their play and in all their works, that they may grow in age, wisdom, and the love of God. Grant too, Blessed Mother, that the prayers of our children may hasten the end of all wars of carnage and devastation and grant unto the world an era of just and lasting peace. We pray that the world may return to Jesus, thy Son through Reparation to thy Immaculate Heart.

EIGHTH DAY Intention

Conversion of Russia

          Oh Immaculate of Mary, refuge of the human race, you have given unto us the means of destroying the menace for atheism and godless communism. Your promise of conversion for those unfortunate victims of those false beliefs, has instilled joy and hope into the nations of the earth. We grieve for those war-torn, homeless and persecuted people who are victims of such mundane ideology. Grant we beseech thee, Oh, Mother, that peace may come to those separated from thy Son by error and discord. We fail, if we heed not thy Message of Fatima. We know thy wishes, and therefore we promise to make reparation to thy Immaculate Heart though the Rosary and the Five First Saturdays, that Russia again may hear the work of God and keep it.
          Our Lady of Fatima, refuge of the human race, inflame our hearts with the love of Reparation.

SEVENTH DAY Intention

Forgiveness of Sin

From whom shall we find comfort and consolation in the shame of our sins, except from thee? Lead us back, dear Mother of Love, to the path of righteousness that leads to the Sacred Heart of thy Divine Son.
          We have sinned often, oh dear Mother, and the remembrance of Mother, and the remembrance of the errors of our ways troubles us. It shall be no more. We know that thy protecting care will find peace and hope for us, and the remission of our sins. We know too that as with Mary Magdalene of old, thy Son shall welcome us with a loving smile, because you have always pleaded for us, Amen.

THE APOSTLE' CREED


I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven
and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord.
He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born
of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was
crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come
to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Holy Catholic Church, the Communion of Saints, the
forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the
life everlasting. Amen

ACT OF CONSECRATION

O Immaculate Heart of Mary, Queen of heaven and earth, and tender mother of men, in accordance with your ardent wish made known at Fatima, I consecrate to you myself, my brethren, my country, and the whole human race. Reign over us and teach us to make the Heart of Jesus reign and triumph in us and around us, as it has reigned and triumphed in you. Reign over us, dearest Mother, that we may be yours in prosperity and in adversity, in joy and in sorrow, in health and in sickness, in life and in death. O most compassionate Heart of Mary, Queen of Virgins, watch over our minds and hearts, and preserve them from the deluge of impurity which you lamented over so sorrowfully at fatima. We want to be pure like you. We want to atone for the many crimes commited against Jesus and you. We want to call down upon our country and the whole world the peace of God in justice and charity. Therefore, we now promise to imitate your virtues by the practice of a Christian life without regard to human respect. We resolve to receive Communion on the first Saturday of every month and to offer one Rosary each day, together with our sacrifices, in the spirit of reparation and penance. Amen.

Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us!
Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us!

Special Prayer

O Immaculate Heart of Mary, Mother of Jesus, Our Lady of Fatima, inspire me to grieve sincerely for the sins that weight heavily upon the souls of men. Sorrowfully I recall the bitter and harsh punishments heaped upon your Divine Son when He was cruelly scourged at the pillar, unmercifully crowned with thorns. I recall His sad journey to Calvary, His crucifixion and ignominious death on the cross. Yet, the were but the instruments of pain. It was my sins that really caused His precious blood to be shed. His excessive love willed that He should suffer for my salvation. Thus, I will give my little love to make amends and atone for a thoughtless and unappreciative world. Our lady of Fatima, pray for us. Pray three Hail Mary individual, social and world peace.)
