FATIMA:
What
Our
Lady Wants Is the Consecration of "Russia"
Time and again sister Lucy explained,
"Our Lady of Fatima did NOT ask for the
consecration of the world,
but the Consecration of RUSSIA."
Following are testimonies of various personal interviews with Sister
Lucy over many years where she repeats the same point again and again:
- In Our Lady of Fatima (1947), pg.
226; Professor William Thomas Walsh reports: "Lucy made it plain that Our
Lady did not ask for
the consecration of the world to Her Immaculate Heart. What She
demanded specifically was the consecration of Russia."
- In the book, Vision of Fatima,
1949, page 80; Father Thomas McGlynn reports that Sister Lucy was
emphatic at correcting consecration of the world to read consecration
of Russia. "No!,"
Sister Lucy said. "Not the world! Russia, Russia!"
- In the book Il Pellegrinaggio Della Meraviglie,
published under the auspices of the Italian Episcopate (Rome 1960, page
440) a little-known revelation of Our Lady of Fatima to Sister Lucy is
recounted. The Virgin Mary appeared to Sister Lucy in May, 1952 and
said: "Make it known to the Holy Father that I am always awaiting the
Consecration of Russia to My Immaculate Heart. Without the
Consecration, Russia will not be able to convert, nor will the world
have peace."
- Father Umberto Maria
Pasquale, S.D.B., had known Sister Lucy since 1939. Up to 1982, he had
received 157 letters from her. On May 12, 1982, Father Umberto wrote in
L'Osservatore Romano
(the Pope's own newspaper) that Our Lady of Fatima never asked for the
consecration of the world but only
of Russia.
On August 5, 1978, he asked
her in person, "Has Our Lady ever spoken to you about the consecration
of the world to Her Immaculate Heart? And Sister Lucy replied, "NO,
Father Umberto, NEVER! At the Cova da Iria in 1917, Our Lady promised:
'I shall come to ask for the Consecration of Russia . . .' "
Father Umberto, wanting a written reply to his question, then wrote
Sister Lucy a letter. On April 13, 1980, Sister Lucy wrote back: "In
replying to your question, I will clarify: Our Lady of Fatima, in Her
request, only
referred to the Consecration of Russia . . ."
- Father Manuel Rocha, a
native of Portugal, was the assigned translator for Professor Walsh for
the interview noted above. He reports a detail that makes it even more
clear that all of us are at risk if the Consecration of Russia is not
done in time. To continue what Mr. Walsh reported above, we quote:
"But she (Sister Lucy) said
more than once, and with deliberate emphasis: 'What Our Lady wants is
that the Pope and all the bishops in the world shall Consecrate Russia
to Her Immaculate Heart on one special day. If this is done, She will
convert Russia and there will be peace. If it is not done, the errors
of Russia will spread through every country in the world.'" (Professor
Walsh) "Does this mean, in your opinion, that every country, without
exception, will be overcome by Communism?" (Sister Lucy) "YES!" (Our Lady of Fatima, 1947, page 226)
Father Rocha testified that Mr. Walsh wanted to be positive about the
answer of Sister Lucy and repeated the question adding, "and does that
mean the United States of American too?" Sister Lucy again answered,
"YES!" (This is reported in the book The
Wonders She Performs, 1986, page 160.)
Why Jesus Wants the Consecration
of RUSSIA
Sister Lucy asked Jesus why He would not convert Russia
except through the specific Consecration of Russia. Jesus replied:
"Because I want My whole Church to recognize that Consecration as a
triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, so that later on My Church
will extend the devotion to the Immaculate Heart and place this
devotion beside devotion to My Sacred Heart."
The only way to convert Russia is for the Pope and the bishops, on the
same day, at the same time, to solemnly and publicly, together
pronounce the act of Consecration of specifically Russia to the
Immaculate Heart of Mary.
Only then, will the world have Peace. The alternative of not obeying
the command of the Queen of Heaven is "various nations will be
annihilated" and the enslavement of the surviving nations.
"Without the Consecration,
Russia will not be able to convert,
nor will the world have peace."
