Our Lady of Fatima Novena

Day Eight

On the horizon of our modern age
hangs the threat of Russia.

Atheistic communism, despising God and enslaving men,
is the peril,
half known, always watched with terror.
Russia, mysterious, brutal in philosophy,
gigantic in power.

A thousand vain schemes are being
tried to safeguard Christian
democracy against the rise of anti-God
and anti-human power.  Leagues,
paper treaties, conciliations, bribes, all
are tried--but with a disbelief
that makers them failures even before they are tried.

All the while the solution  had been offered by Mary.

"If my requests are heard,
Russia will be converted and there will be peace."

How complicated are the ways of men!
How simple are the ways of God!

If we will consecrate the world
to Mary's immaculate heart........

If we will say her rosary..............

If we will be sorry for sin
and keep our hearts sinless..............

If we will love purity and truth.................

Russia will find its way back into the arms of the Father
of the prodigal,
and the threat that lies behind the Iron Curtain
will be removed from the world.

In the hope of all that
Our Lady of Fatima promised 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.
