Day
Nine
So Fatima became a new place of pilgrimage.
Millions
have gone to see the place to which
Mary
came from heaven in order to show her
children
the ways of peace.
Men who
hated God and Mary destroyed the
oak
tree that marked the spot on which she
appeared
and bombed the little church that
had
been built to commemorate her apparition.
Pilgrims
came in ever growing numbers, and the
fame
of Our Lady of Fatima swept the
Christian
nations.
Rosary
in hand, individuals and families, nuns
and
priests, educated and unlettered did battle
for
the cause of Christ.
The image
of Mary's immaculate heart began to
appear
on thousands of walls; Mary's immaculate
heart
became the model on which Catholic youth
patterned
their hearts.
Once
more we knew that God loves us and Mary
watches
over us.
Once
more we were assured that God's ways are
the
ways of peace and that those who in their
secret
souls win the battle against sin are victors
in history's
most important battle.
"Blessed
are the peacemakers: for they shall be
called
the children of God".....
and
the faithful clients of Mary Our Lady of
Fatima.
To her 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.
