Our Lady of Fatima
The Five First
Saturdays'
Devotion
MARY'S
GREAT PROMISE AT FATIMA
THE
observance of the First Saturday in
honor
of the Immaculate Heart of Mary is intended to console her Immaculate
Heart,
and to make, reparation to it for all the blasphemies and ingratitude
of
men. This devotion and the wonderful promises connected with it were
revealed
by the Blessed Virgin with these words recorded by Lucy, one of the
three
children to whom the Blessed Virgin appeared at Fatima, Potugal, in
1917:
I
promise to help at the hour of death,
with
the graces needed for salvation, whoever on the First Saturday of five
consecutive months shall:
1. Confess and receive
Holy Commtmion.
2. Recite five decades
of the Rosary.
3. And
keep me company
for fifteen minutes
while meditating on one or more of the fifteen mysteries of the Rosary,
with the intention of making reparation to me.
