The Apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima Part I

The following is a collection of excerpts from “Fatima in Lucia’s own Words” (2003 edition) with some minor

additions from “Fatima from the beginning” by John De Marchi, I.M.C. (1997 edition) Since the primary text

for this paper was “Fatima in Lucia’s own Words” Lucia is telling the story. Only when Lucia quotes herself do I

put what she says in quotations. The words of the Angel are in quotation and italics where as the words of Our

Lady are in quotation and bold print. Anything in ( ) is an addition or insert by me.

The purpose of this paper is to put the essential details of the apparitions together without commentary and story

telling so that the message of the Angel and Our Lady can be read for quick reference. I repeat this series each

summer because so many still remain ignorant of the message of Our Lady and its importance for our times.

Apparition of the Angel

SPRING, 1916

As it drew closer, we were able to distinguish its features. It was a young man, about fourteen or fifteen years

old, whiter than snow, transparent as crystal when the sun shines through it, and of great beauty. On reaching us

he said:

“Do not be afraid! I am the Angel of Peace. Pray with me.”

Kneeling on the ground, he bowed down until his forehead touched the ground, and made us repeat these words

three times:

“My God, I believe, I adore, I hope and I love You! I ask pardon of You for those who do not believe, do not

adore, do not hope and do not love You.” Then rising he said: “Pray thus. The Hearts of Jesus and Mary are

attentive to the voice of your supplications.”

SUMMER, 1916

Suddenly, we saw beside us the same figure, or rather Angel, as it seemed to me.

“What are you doing? Pray, pray very much! The most holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary have designs of mercy on

you. Offer prayers and sacrifices constantly to the Most High.”

“How are we to make sacrifices?” I asked.

“Make of everything you can a sacrifice, and offer it to God as an act of reparation for the sins by which He is

offended, and in supplication for the conversion of sinners. You will thus draw down peace upon your coun-

try. I am its Angel Guardian, the Angel of Portugal. Above all, accept and bear with submission, the suffer-

ing which the Lord will send you.”

SOME TIME LATER

We sprang up to see what was happening, and beheld the Angel. He was holding a chalice in his left hand, with

the Host suspended above it, from which some drops of blood fell into the Chalice. Leaving the chalice suspend-

ed in the air, the Angel knelt down beside us and made us repeat three times:

Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I adore You profoundly, and I offer You the most precious Body,

Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in all the tabernacles of the world, in reparation for the out-

rages, sacrileges, and indifference with which He Himself is offended. And, through the infinite merits of His

most Sacred Heart, and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg of You the conversion of poor sinners.”

Then, rising, he took the chalice and the Host in his hands. He gave the Sacred Host to me, and shared the Blood

from the chalice between Jacinta and Francisco, saying as he did so:

Take and drink the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, horribly outraged by ungrateful men! Make reparation for

their crimes and console your God.”

Once again, he prostrated on the ground and repeated with us three times more, the same prayer “Most Holy

Trinity…” and then disappeared.

THE GOOD SHEPHERD PROGRAM

KINDERGARTEN MONTESSORI-BASED CLASSES

Monday or Wednesday at 3:45- 4:45

The Level 1 Good Shepherd Program encourages

children to develop their relationship with God. They

encounter Jesus, the Good Shepherd who loves them,

cares for them, and knows them by name. Catechesis

includes Scripture, Mass gestures, prayers, artwork,

and music. Level 1 allows for children to learn

through a hands-on approach using materials, such as

a child-sized altar, chalice, vestments.

The Good Shepherd program is rooted in the educa-

tional principles of Maria Montessori, and was found-

ed by Sofia Cavalletti and Gianna Gobbi in Rome. It

is the joyful, peaceful response of the children them-

selves that inspired and determined the content of this

unique program.

Please keep the following in your Prayers

SEEDS Program

The SEEDS program has provided age-appropriate

lessons and activities related to the weekly Gospel

Reading for children 6 and under.

Gwen Torre is looking for a parishioner with children

in this age range to take over organizing this

ministry. The children and families benefit from this,

so please contact Gwen for information if you would

like to see this program continue.

FOOD FIRST

Hun-

ger doesn’t take a vacation

Food pantry donations reach their lowest during the

summer months when the need is the greatest.

Families with children, who rely on free or reduced-

cost breakfast and/or lunch at school, need to find a

way to replace those meals during summer break.

They turn to their local food bank or pantry for

assistance.

Please help out during this time with donations of

CEREAL

— when you buy a box for your family, pick up

an extra.
