Our Lady of Fatima Novena

 

Day Two

The first sweeping rush of World War I
and then the dreary siege of the
trenches had sickened Europe.

To win the war, the best brains available had been summoned
and the man power of the nations had been exhausted.

Science invented as it had never before invented.  The war
drew on all the resources of laboratory and factory.

So the war dragged on,
and peace became prelude to worse war.

In the midst of the chaos worse confused, the beautiful Lady
singled out, not the wise, but the simple, not the statesmen, but
the children, not the generals, but three little shepherds.

For them and through them for the world she laid down a
simple platform for the ending of all wars
and the permanence of peace.
The only trouble with it is that it is simple and right;
the "wise" want something complicated and wrong.

War will end and peace will endure,
said Our Lady of Fatima,
if we pray:
My Jesus forgive us our sins.
Save us from the fire of hell.
Relieve the holy souls in purgatory,
especially the most abandoned.

If we dedicate ourselves to sinless lives..........

If we say the rosary.........

In honor of Our Lady of Fatima we say:

The Prayer of the Queen of the Rosary

O God, whose only-begotten Son by His life, death and Resurrection
hath purchased for us the reward of eternal salvation, grant,
we beseech thee, that meditating on these mysteries in the most holy
rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we may both imitate what they contain,
and obtain what they promise.  Through Our Lord Jesus Christ, who
livest and reignest with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Ghost,
God, world without end.  Amen.
