FEAST of
Our Lady of
Fatima and
Our Lady of the
Most Blessed Sacrament
May 13
The Fatima
apparitions are a call to reparation through
Mass,
Eucharistic Adoration and praying the Rosary
for the conversion of
sinners.
Again and again, Our
Lady reminds us: this is Heaven’s Peace
Plan!
Dec 25, 2012 - Nuns pray
during Catholic Mass ~ Church of St Catherine, Bethlehem ~
Israel
"A great crisis today around the Eucharist is not just a crisis of
faith, but a crisis of love - of a love rooted in obedience to the love revealed to us by our God.
Some people want to have the Eucharist without conversion; yet that is not the
way of the Lord.
Some
people may miss Mass on Sunday, they may be taking money illegitimately, they
may be engaging in sexual relations outside of marriage, they may vocally
support abortion, euthanasia, homosexual activity and homosexual unions, they
may fail in the just treatment of their neighbor by gossip or prejudice, or they
may commit some other serious sin and go to Communion. ... Others perceive that
they "do not
get anything out of Mass" and simply view it as one more event
in a busy weekend, sometimes leaving it as the last thing to fit into a full
schedule of activities. Others complain that Mass is too long or simply do not
come. ...
This is a tragedy because the Eucharist is
about Jesus Christ and His saving works on
our behalf. In the Mass we share in the feast that the Lord Himself has
prepared for us." ~ Bishop Samuel
Aquila - 10.14.05
"The message of Fatima is
an appeal to conversion. In her motherly solicitude, the Blessed
Virgin came here, to Fatima , to ask men not to
offend God any more. It was a mother's sorrow that obliged her to
speak." ~ St John Paul
II
"To her, consequently,
it belongs to make Jesus in the Sacrament known and loved; to her it belongs to
spread the Eucharist throughout the world, to multiply churches, to raise them
in infidel lands, and to defend faith in the Eucharist against heretics and the
impious; to her it belongs to prepare souls for Communion, to rouse them to make
frequent visits to Jesus, and to assist zealously at the Holy Sacrifice of the
Mass." ~ St. Peter Julian Eymard
“This
title, Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament,
is perhaps the most
meaningful of all.” ~ St Pius X
Our Lady of
Fatima,
Our Lady of
the Most Blessed Sacrament,
pray for
us!
