The St. Paul Center's daily scripture reflections from the Mass for the Memorial of the Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary by Mr. Clement Harrold. Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary Obligatory Memorial First Reading: First Kings 19: 19-21 Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 16: 1b-2a and 5, 7-8, 9-10 Alleluia: Luke 2: 19 Gospel: Luke 2: 41-51   Learn more about the Mass at www.stpaulcenter.com To encounter Christ in Scripture and share Him with others.

The homily reflects on the Immaculate Heart of Mary and its role as a perfect model of spiritual order and devotion. The biblical account of finding the child Jesus in the temple illustrates how the Holy Family prioritized divine duties over earthly anxieties. The source emphasizes that while human hearts are often filled with fears and distractions, they should ultimately be patterned after the Sacred Heart of Jesus. This reflection suggests that all human searching, even when misguided, is fundamentally a quest for God and lasting fulfillment. Ultimately, the narrative encourages listeners to align their daily responsibilities and inner concerns with the life and mystery of Christ.

The sermon preached on Sunday, June 7, 2026 in Stella Maris Parish at the church of the Immaculate Heart of Mary in Monona, WI at the 10:30 AM Mass.

Scripture warns of a Great Apostasy. Our Lady of Fatima promised that her Immaculate Heart would triumph, but not before a period of suffering, confusion, and persecution. Father James Altman joins John-Henry Westen to argue that the signs are all around us: a Church in crisis, a hierarchy lost in ambiguity, and a world preparing to welcome a false savior.The conversation spans Fatima's delayed consecration of Russia, the ignored request to consecrate France to the Sacred Heart, and the prophecies of saints like Hildegard, Padre Pio, and Archbishop Fulton Sheen. Sheen, in particular, foresaw that the laity would one day restore the Church while clergy and bishops abandoned their posts.Altman is blunt: this is not the time for complacency. The synodal church, the replacement of confession with "listening centers," the normalization of sin, the silence of cardinals, all of it points to a spiritual collapse foretold centuries ago. But prophecy is not meant to inspire fear. It is meant to prepare.The end is not the end of the world. It is the end of the world. And for those who remain faithful, the triumph of the Immaculate Heart is already certain. The question is whether Catholics will be ready when the Antichrist makes his entrance.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

Read Online“Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be handed over to the chief priests and the scribes, and they will condemn him to death and hand him over to the Gentiles who will mock him, spit upon him, scourge him, and put him to death, but after three days he will rise.” Mark 10:33–34How often do we fail to grasp the suffering of others, consumed instead by our own concerns? This was the struggle of the Twelve as Jesus prepared to endure His Passion. Today's Gospel presents the third time Jesus clearly told them about His Passion and Death, yet they still didn't get it.After Jesus revealed His Passion for the first time, “Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him.” In the presence of the other disciples, Jesus responded, “Get behind me, Satan. You are thinking not as God does, but as human beings do” (cf. Mark 8:31–33). The second time Jesus revealed His Passion they “did not understand the saying, and they were afraid to question him.” Instead, they engaged in a childish conversation, “discussing among themselves on the way who was the greatest” (cf. Mark 9:30–37).Today's Gospel, presenting the third time Jesus revealed His Passion, depicts a similar scenario. Jesus is very explicit: In Jerusalem, He “will be handed over to the chief priests and the scribes, and they will condemn him to death and hand him over to the Gentiles who will mock him, spit upon him, scourge him, and put him to death, but after three days he will rise.” Once again, despite the seriousness of Jesus' revelation, James and John immediately ask Jesus, “Grant that in your glory we may sit one at your right and the other at your left” (Mark 10:37). The Apostles were so consumed with their own ambitions that they failed to grasp the gravity of Jesus' words and were unable to offer Him the charity of empathy.Fortunately for them—and for us—Jesus had perfect patience. He understood their weaknesses and showed mercy. Humanly speaking, the disciples could have offered Him the charity of human empathy and compassion, walking more firmly with Jesus toward His agony and death, but they were unprepared and unable to do so.While the Apostles failed to console Jesus, His mother consoled His Sacred Heart. With her Immaculate Heart in perfect union with His, the Blessed Mother modeled perfect empathy as she pondered her Son's life in her heart and stood faithfully at the foot of the Cross. She walked with Jesus every step of the way. Her love consoled Him even as the Twelve failed to do so. The Blessed Mother teaches us how to accompany, with love and presence, those who suffer.We must see ourselves in the Apostles, listening to Jesus share news of His Passion. As we consider their apathy and lack of understanding, we should seek the grace of a loving and empathetic heart by seeing our Lord present in those around us, especially family, who carry heavy burdens. This grace will enable us to be attentive to those burdens and better imitate our Blessed Mother who consoled the heart of her Son. Though the Apostles initially failed in this mission, they were learning and growing. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, they would later console others by sharing Christ's love and proclaiming His Passion with courage, especially as they lived it. Reflect today on Jesus' interaction with His Apostles. Learn from their shortcomings and be grateful for Jesus' patience. Pray for the grace of an empathetic heart, for this virtue enables us to console the Heart of Christ by sharing in His Passion with attentiveness and compassion. In doing so, we imitate the perfect love of the Blessed Mother, who teaches us how to truly love. My patient Lord, though You desire to fully share Your life and Passion with me, I often fail to be attentive and to see You in those around me. Grant me the grace to meet You in Your sufferings, and fill my heart with the charity of human empathy, especially for those I am called to love. May I learn from the weakness of the Apostles and the perfect love of Your Blessed Mother, imitating her unwavering love for You and for all.

Five Saturdays of Reparation This conference explores the rich history, theology, and spiritual meaning behind the Five First Saturdays Devotion . . . . . . associated with Sister Lucia and Our Lady of Fatima. The conference explains that devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary on Saturdays long predates Fatima, arising from the Church's meditation on Holy Saturday, when Mary alone remained steadfast in faith while Christ lay in the tomb. Over centuries, Christians began dedicating Saturdays . . . and especially First Saturdays . . . to honoring Mary's role in salvation history, meditating on the mysteries of the Rosary, and growing spiritually through communal prayer. The conference highlights how the Five First Saturdays requested at Fatima are not a completely new devotion, but a focused renewal of older Marian traditions, emphasizing fervor over routine and intentional prayer over empty habit. Why Five First Saturdays? The conference further explains the spiritual practices requested for the Five First Saturdays: Holy Communion, Confession, praying the Rosary, fifteen minutes of meditation on the mysteries, and offering these acts in reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The conference also explores the five types of Reparation. The devotion is presented as both deeply personal and profoundly catechetical, inviting believers to understand and defend Marian doctrines such as the Immaculate Conception, perpetual virginity, and Mary's motherhood of God and the Church. The reflection also stresses the importance of reverence, beauty, and intentionality in Catholic devotion, warning against mediocrity and neglect in honoring sacred things. Ultimately, the Five First Saturdays are portrayed as an act of love, reparation, and perseverance, with the promise that the Blessed Mother will assist the faithful with the graces needed at the hour of death. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Two Views of the Official New York State Fatima Pilgrim Image

Childlike Trust and the Path to Holiness Today's homily reflects on the message of Our Lady of Fátima apparitions and its enduring relevance for the modern world. The homily emphasizes that in the midst of the turmoil of 1917, during the First World War, Heaven chose not worldly leaders but three humble shepherd children to receive Mary's message. We are reminded that childlike trust and openness to God are essential for entering the Kingdom of Heaven. The central themes of the homily include praying the Rosary daily for peace, offering penance and repentance for sinners, and cultivating devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. True Devotion to Mary Must Come from the Heart, and … Drawing heavily from the teachings of Saint Louis de Montfort, the homily explains that true devotion to Mary must come from the heart, be rooted in trust, strive toward holiness, remain consistent through hardships, and move beyond self-interest into a genuine relationship with Mary that leads souls to Jesus Christ. The Gospel passage from Gospel of Luke is presented as confirmation that Mary's greatness lies in her perfect obedience to the Word of God, making her the model disciple for all Christians. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Art Work Song of the Angels: French Painter: William Adolphe Bouguereau: 1881

The Readings for Today's Homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/051326.cfmOn the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima, Fr. Chris Alar reflects on Our Lady's urgent call to prayer, penance, reparation, and consecration for world peace. He explains Sister Lucia's clarification to Pope St. John Paul II about the true way Russia was to be consecrated: Solemnly, universally, and in union with the bishops of the world. Father Chris highlights the significance of the March 25, 1984 consecration, and connects it to March 25, 2022, when Pope Francis consecrated Russia and Ukraine to the Immaculate Heart of Mary with the bishops of the world. Fatima is not just a message from the past — It is a call for our time._______________________________The Seven Fatima PrayersDuring the course of the apparitions at Fatima, the three child seers were taught five unique andpowerful prayers, two by the Angel of Peace and three by the Mother of God. Later, appearing toSister Lucy at Rianjo, Spain, Our Lord Jesus Christ dictated two further prayers. For millions ofpeople, these prayers are today a living embodiment of the Message of hope and peace whichOur Lady gave the world at Fatima.Recently a practice has developed of reciting one or more of these prayers on a daily basis. Feelfree to recite them in any order which you find most comforting and appropriate.MondayMy God, I believe, I adore, I hope and I love You! I ask pardon of You for those who do notbelieve, do not adore, do not hope and do not love You!TuesdayO Jesus, it is for love of You, for the conversion of sinners, and in reparation for the sinscommitted against the Immaculate Heart of Mary.WednesdayO my Jesus, forgive us, save us from the fire of hell.

Friends of the Rosary,Today, May 13, is the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima, commemorating the first apparition of the Virgin Mary to three shepherd children—Lúcia dos Santos, Francisco Marto, and Jacinta Marto—in Fátima, Portugal, on this day in 1917.Mary appeared six times to the children between May and October 1917, calling for prayer, repentance, daily recitation of the Rosary, and sacrifices for the conversion of sinners.The Miracle of the Sun, on October 13, 1917, was witnessed by 70,000 people: the sun appeared to dance and plunge toward the earth, fulfilling a promise made by the Lady.The Fatima apparitions and miracles were officially declared "worthy of belief" by the Church in 1930.The shrine at Fátima is one of the most visited Marian shrines in the world, with millions of pilgrims attending, particularly on May 13 and October 13.This Feast Day is marked by Mass, processions, and devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.The message of Fatima is seen as a call to peace and a reminder of the power of prayer in a world often marked by conflict.[embed]https://www.youtube.com/live/CTXjoLA1wN0?si=bG9BtRcl5TTFNP6k[/embed]Alleluia!

Full Text of Readings Wednesday of the Sixth Week of Easter Lectionary: 293 The Saint of the day is Our Lady of Fatima The Story of Our Lady of Fatima Between May 13 and October 13, 1917, three Portuguese children–Francisco and Jacinta Marto and their cousin Lucia dos Santos–received apparitions of Our Lady at Cova da Iria near Fatima, a city 110 miles north of Lisbon. Mary asked the children to pray the rosary for world peace, for the end of World War I, for sinners, and for the conversion of Russia. Mary gave the children three secrets. Following the deaths of Francisco and Jacinta in 1919 and 1920 respectively, Lucia revealed the first secret in 1927. It concerned devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The second secret was a vision of hell. When Lucia grew up she became a Carmelite nun and died in 2005 at the age of 97. Pope John Paul II directed the Holy See's Secretary of State to reveal the third secret in 2000; it spoke of a “bishop in white” who was shot by a group of soldiers who fired bullets and arrows into him. Many people linked this vision to the assassination attempt against Pope John Paul II in St. Peter's Square on May 13, 1981. The feast of Our Lady of Fatima was approved by the local bishop in 1930; it was added to the Church's worldwide calendar in 2002. Reflection The message of Fatima is simple: Pray. Unfortunately, some people—not Sister Lucia—have distorted these revelations, making them into an apocalyptic event for which they are now the only reliable interpreters. They have, for example, claimed that Mary's request that the world be consecrated to her has been ignored. Sister Lucia agreed that Pope John Paul II's public consecration in St. Peter's Square on March 25, 1984, fulfilled Mary's request. The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith prepared a June 26, 2000, document explaining the “third secret.” Mary is perfectly honored when people generously imitate her response “Let it be done to me as you say” (Luke 1:38). Mary can never be seen as a rival to Jesus or to the Church's teaching authority, as exercised by the college of bishops united with the bishop of Rome.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

*Click HERE to watch the interview on WCAT TVShownotesWe might often find ourselves going to the rote prayers of the Rosary or even the Divine Mercy Chaplet. While we may think they are separate, are they really so separate in terms of how we think of them? Or is there a way that God can bring us together through both of these prayers? Is there a way that they can, no pun intended, marry each other? In this week's episode, Jennifer has a conversation with guest, Shane Kapler, to discuss the fact that there is a relationship between the Rosary and the Divine Mercy Chaplet.Our GuestFor the past 30 years Shane has been involved in evangelism and catechesis within the Archdiocese of St. Louis. He holds an M.A. in Theology with a Specialization in Sacred Scripture. Shane currently serves on the board of the Image of God Institute, an apostolate dedicated to unpacking God's plan for the human person in the teachings of Popes St. John Paul II and Benedict XVI.He is also the author of several books, including the one we will be discussing today, Marrying the Rosary to the Divine Mercy Chaplet (2016).

When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple there whom he loved, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son.” Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother.” And from that hour the disciple took her into his home. John 19:25–27If God invited you to be present at one moment in the Scriptures, to see it with your eyes, hear it with your ears, and experience it with your heart, what moment would that be? Certainly, Gabriel's announcement to Mary, Christ's birth, a miracle, or a sermon would be awe-inspiring. The moment, however, that perhaps best manifests pure and perfect love is the love shared between Mother and Son during Jesus' three hours on the Cross.Throughout His life, Jesus' mother was uniquely privileged to know Him like no other. She bore Him in her womb, nursed Him at her breast, bathed Him as a child, fed Him, watched Him grow, and was attentive to His every virtue. As His ministry attracted both great attention and harsh criticism, her Immaculate and motherly Heart remained perfectly attentive to Him and His mission.As tensions rose during the week of Passover, her motherly intuition filled her Immaculate Heart with an intertwining of the most holy love and sorrow imaginable. When Jesus was arrested, the pain was deeper than any human heart had ever suffered, and her resolve to be present at her Son's Passion was stronger than any earthly force could stop. No fear, threat, or sorrow could keep her from accompanying her Son to the very end. In perfect union with the will of God, Mary's love was unwavering. Her silent presence at the Cross became a testament to the boundless strength of maternal devotion. Just as she had embraced Jesus in the joy of His Nativity, she now held Him in her heart during His Passion, standing as both witness and participant in the work of redemption.As Jesus looked down at her from the Cross upon which He hung, the human consolation He received from His mother's gaze was all He needed. Her love and affection were His only remaining earthly possessions. Stripped bare, nailed to the Cross, and suffocating, His mother's love could not be taken from Him. Yet Jesus came to give all out of love—everything He possessed, including His mother. Out of love, Jesus entrusted her to John, the beloved disciple—and through him, to all of us—so that we might receive her as our own mother.As He looked at her with the deepest love ever shared between two people, He called her “Woman”—“Woman, behold your son.” By calling her “Woman,” Jesus revealed the fulfillment of her identity in salvation history. She was the woman foretold in Genesis and the woman revealed in the vision of Revelation. In that moment, when the heavens were torn open and grace poured down upon the world, Jesus' mother fulfilled her role as the New Eve and the new Mother of all the Living. She became the Mother and protector of all God's children, interceding for them with unparalleled love and participating in the mediation of God's grace. To John, who stood by her, Jesus said, “Behold, your mother.” With that, He thirsted, drank the bitter wine on a sprig of hyssop, cried out, “It is finished!,” bowed His head, and handed over His spirit.As we celebrate this Good Friday, fix your gaze upon the moment when human love, united with divine love, was revealed to the world in the most sacred way. The love between this Mother and Son, alongside the gift of His mother and the New Eve to all of us, embodies the selfless nature of divine love. Ponder the mystery. Pray that you may be spiritually drawn into that moment. Gaze upon their love and hear the Messiah, the Son of God, say to you: “Behold, your mother.” Hearing, believing, and responding to those words makes you present at that moment when love was perfected and salvation poured forth upon the world.Most glorious Lord, as You suffered upon the Cross, having nothing left in this world but Your mother, You entrusted her to us to be our mother, so that we could participate in the love that You and she shared. I do behold her as my mother, and You as my King and God. I love You and thank You with all my heart for the unfathomable gift You have given me. Jesus, I trust in You.  Image: Gent - Crucifixion paint on the wood plate by Renáta SedmákováSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc.

The readings for this homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/033026.cfmHoly Week is not merely a historical commemoration; it is a sacred invitation to enter the deepest regions of intimacy with Jesus and Mary. As Fr. Daniel Klimek, PhD, powerfully reminds us, this is the week when Jesus gives Himself for the life of the world in total vulnerability. It is the week He institutes the Holy Eucharist and the priesthood, and ultimately, the week He dies to open the gates of Heaven. Yet, amidst the hatred, blasphemy, and violence of the Passion, there were moments of profound mercy. Jesus encountered His Mother, St. Veronica, and St. Simon of Cyrene. These encounters remind us that even in the darkest valley, the Lord allows the light of compassion to shine.The central challenge of this week is a question posed by the homily: Will Jesus see your face on the path of Calvary? Will He receive your embrace? We are called to offer “retroactive consolation.” This profound spiritual truth means that our prayers, sacrifices, and Holy Hours offered today can transcend time and space. They can reach Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane or Mary at the foot of the Cross, offering them comfort in their moments of greatest agony. When the Angel appeared to strengthen Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, part of that consolation was the foreknowledge of your love and your prayers from the 21st century. You can tell Him, “Lord, You do not have to be alone.”Father Daniel urges us to strip away the distractions of the modern age. We must turn off the shining screens, turn away from the false idols of technology, and enter into silence and solitude. This is the time to read the mystical writings in the Church's heritage, such as the works of St. Bridget of Sweden or of Ven. Mary of Agreda, which provide a vivid window into the sufferings of Christ. These texts are not mere stories; they are spiritual maps leading us into the abyss of divine love. While it is easy to be a friend in good times, true intimacy is forged in the fire of suffering. It is in our participation in and commemoration of the abandonment of Gethsemane and the silence of Calvary that we prove our love.If Lent has felt like a failure, treat Holy Week as a clean slate. Do not let the past weigh you down. Instead, stand in spirit with St. John the Apostle, St. Mary Magdalene, and Our Lady at the foot of the Cross. Offer your presence at Mass, at the foot of the altar (which is the foot of the Cross) as a gift. Let your silence speak louder than words. Jesus waits for you in the Garden; Mary waits for you at the Cross. Do not leave them alone. Your presence is the greatest consolation you can offer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. ★ Support this podcast ★

The readings for this homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/031926.cfmHappy St. Joseph's Day! Five years ago marked a historic milestone — the Church's first year ever dedicated to St. Joseph. This is no accident. Though St. Joseph was humbly hidden, he played the most significant role after the Blessed Virgin Mary in assisting Christ's plan of redemption. After Mary, he remains the most significant figure in Christ's plan of salvation for all people.Father Matthew Tomeny, MIC, reflects on this profound truth, exploring how devotion to St. Joseph has grown organically over time, rather like the Church has grown in her devotion to and understanding of the Eucharist. In the last 150 years, the Holy Spirit has moved the Church to develop her teaching about and devotion to St. Joseph. Since the Holy Father's declaration of St, Joseph as universal patron of the Church in 1870, we have seen encyclicals, religious orders, and shrines dedicated to him. Pope Leo XIII dedicated March to Saint Joseph. In 1955, the Feast of St. Joseph the Worker was added to the calendar. In the 1962 revision of the Roman Missal, St. Joseph was inserted into the Roman Canon. In 2013, Pope Francis added St. Joseph to the rest of the Eucharistic Prayers, as well.Pope Francis also declared a Year of Saint Joseph from Dec. 8, 2020 through Dec. 8, 2021, and consecration to him has grown rapidly. As our Lord tells us in the “Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska,” God is preparing us for His second coming, giving us the Day of Mercy before the Day of Judgment. With this will come the triumph of the Immaculate Heart, joined to the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.We are living in a time of moral and spiritual famine. The Church must go to St. Joseph, just as Israel went to Joseph in times of famine. Saint Joseph protects the Church from real attacks threatening destruction. During the Holy Family's exile in Egypt, it must have been tempting to think Jesus was not the Messiah. Similarly, when attacks on the Church grow and teachings seem shrouded in darkness, St. Joseph will be there to protect, nourish, and guide us.Saint Joseph is the father of the Mystical Body of Christ. He spiritually feeds, shelters, clothes, educates, protects, and corrects us. Where the St. Joseph Oratory in Montreal, in Canada, stands today, St. Br. Andre attributed countless miracles to St. Joseph's intercession. In our day, Jesus wants the Church to know, love, honor, and seek refuge in St. Joseph.With such poor examples of fatherhood in the world, we desperately need him as a perfect model of paternal love — an earthly icon of God the Father. Saint Joseph is higher than all the patriarchs, higher than all the saints of the New Testament. Unlike St. Peter and St. Paul, he never denied or persecuted Jesus. He is the only one who can say he saved Jesus — the savior of his Savior.May St. Joseph continue to protect the Church and intercede for us to have purity of mind and heart so that, through Mary, Jesus may dwell in the home of our hearts. ★ Support this podcast ★

In this episode, we continue our Lenten book study on "The Way of Trust and Love" and focus on Chapter 3: Being Reconciled to Our Weakness. We talk about how our struggles with ourselves often spill over into our relationships with others and how learning to accept our own weakness can soften our hearts towards the weakness we see in those around us. We also reflect on the tension between accepting our littleness and desiring real conversion, how we become more aware of our imperfections as we draw closer to the Lord, and the gift of community in helping us clearly see our lives. This week, we invite you to receive God's love, extend that love to yourself, and then offer it freely to others.   Heather's One Thing - Attending the funeral of Francis Bergsma Sister Miriam's One Thing - Stations of the Cross with Our Sister St. Thérèse from Little Way Books Michelle's One Thing - The funness of our listeners!   Journal Questions: Where am I experiencing a lack of harmony in myself and in my relationships with others? Do I truly desire conversion? What parts of me are resistant to conversion? Where am I looking at the weaknesses of others instead of examining myself? When do I speak to myself with words of self-condemnation?   Discussion Questions: What weaknesses or defects are you wrestling with right now? How is God inviting you into deeper communion with Him in this weakness? How is the Lord inviting you to embrace littleness this Lent? Where is the Lord calling you to forgo constant management of your life and to embrace the mystery & trust of a life with Christ? How have you slowed down this Lent? How has this slower pace impacted your spiritual life?   Quotes to Ponder: "If we accept ourselves as we are, we also accept God's love for us. But if we reject ourselves, if we despise ourselves, we shut ourselves off from the love God has for us, we deny that love. If we accept ourselves in our weakness, our limitations, it will also be easier for us to accept other people. Often, quite simply, we can't get along with other people because we can't get along with ourselves." (Father Jacques Philippe, The Way of Trust and Love, Page 48-49)   "I am no longer surprised by anything, I am not sorry to see that I am weakness itself. On the contrary, I glory in it, and I expect to discover new imperfections in myself every day.

Full Text of Readings Friday after Ash Wednesday Lectionary: 221 The Saint of the day is Saints Jacinta and Francisco Marto Saints Jacinta and Francisco Marto's Story Between May 13 and October 13, 1917, three Portuguese shepherd children from Aljustrel, received apparitions of Our Lady at Cova da Iria, near Fátima, a city 110 miles north of Lisbon. At that time, Europe was involved in an extremely bloody war. Portugal itself was in political turmoil, having overthrown its monarchy in 1910; the government disbanded religious organizations soon after. At the first appearance, Mary asked the children to return to that spot on the thirteenth of each month for the next six months. She also asked them to learn to read and write and to pray the rosary “to obtain peace for the world and the end of the war.” They were to pray for sinners and for the conversion of Russia, which had recently overthrown Czar Nicholas II and was soon to fall under communism. Up to 90,000 people gathered for Mary's final apparition on October 13, 1917. Less than two years later, Francisco died of influenza in his family home. He was buried in the parish cemetery and then re-buried in the Fátima basilica in 1952. Jacinta died of influenza in Lisbon in 1920, offering her suffering for the conversion of sinners, peace in the world, and the Holy Father. She was re-buried in the Fátima basilica in 1951. Their cousin Lúcia dos Santos, became a Carmelite nun and was still living when Jacinta and Francisco were beatified in 2000; she died five years later. Pope Francis canonized the younger children on his visit to Fátima to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the first apparition–May 13, 2017. The shrine of Our Lady of Fátima is visited by up to 20 million people a year. Reflection The Church is always very cautious about endorsing alleged apparitions, but it has seen benefits from people changing their lives because of the message of Our Lady of Fátima. Prayer for sinners, devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and praying the rosary—all these reinforce the Good News Jesus came to preach.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Fatima gives context to our times and prophetic direction; Marian consecration continues to renew the Church; the Immaculate Conception is the Patroness of the United States; and the Immaculate Heart's Triumph continues to approach. But why does Our Lady have such a special place in the Catholic faith? How do we live this devotion well? Dr. Robert Stackpole explains. Are you enjoying this podcast?
