We need pro-life doulas even more - become a doula and learn about what a doula does....
Hi, I know a lot of writers have already talked about this subject, but I wanted to make some comments about this "Consecration of Russia" to Mary.
First of all, it wasn't just one thing being consecrated. That is what disturbs me the most. So, I wanted to quote from the Fatima Center about Sr. Lucia's full vision of 1929 below....Sister Lucia speaking here...
"(June 13, 1929). I had requested and obtained permission from my superiors and my confessor to make a holy hour from 11:00 p.m. to midnight, from Thursday to Friday of each week.
Finding myself alone one night, I knelt down near the Communion rail, in the middle of the chapel, to recite the prayers of the Angel, lying prostrate… Feeling tired, I got up and continued to recite them with my arms in the form of a cross. The only light was that of the [sanctuary] lamp.
Suddenly, the whole chapel lit up with a supernatural light and on the altar appeared a cross of light which reached the ceiling. In a clearer light, on the upper part of the cross, could be seen the face of a man with His body to the waist, on His chest a dove, equally luminous; and nailed to the cross, the body of another man. A little below the waist [of Christ on the cross], suspended in the air, could be seen a Chalice and a large Host, onto which some drops of Blood were falling, which flowed from the face of the Crucified One and from the wound in His breast. Running down over the Host, these drops fell into the Chalice.
Under the right arm of the cross was Our Lady with Her Immaculate Heart in Her hand… (She appeared as Our Lady of Fatima, with Her Immaculate Heart in Her left hand, without sword or roses, but with a crown of thorns and flames) under the left arm [of the cross], in large letters, like crystalline water which flowed over the altar, forming these words: “Grace and Mercy”. I understood that the mystery of the Most Holy Trinity was shown to me, and I received lights about this mystery which I am not permitted to reveal.
Then Our Lady said to me: ‘The moment has come in which God asks the Holy Father to make, in union with all the bishops of the world, the consecration of Russia to My Immaculate Heart, promising to save it by this means. So numerous are the souls which the justice of God condemns for sins committed against Me, that I come to ask for reparation. Sacrifice yourself for this intention and pray.’
I rendered an account of this to my confessor, who ordered me to write down what Our Lord willed to be done. " (unquote). https://fatima.org/the-apparition-at-tuy-1929/
So, my question is why consecrate other things along with Russia? Our Lady wanted "Russia" alone from my understanding after viewing this vision again.
2. It looks like war is continuing for Ukraine and Russia - Where's the period of peace? Wait above vision doesn't even mention that!!
However, I believe it was mentioned to the 3 children at Fatima - I'll have to go find any quotes - see further down in this article.
3. My husband said, "I was kind of hoping for an instant period of peace." Well, I have thoughts on that one - Maybe it is "too late" and whatever is going to happen has already been put in place and we are not going to see a period of peace YET.
Or We have not done the Consecration the way Mary wanted it to be - Russia alone with the Bishops of the world. (Though Bishops did participate this time - but I am not sure all did).
4. One Fatima Expert thinks this Consecration was not done properly -Fr. Isaac Relyea - his YouTube video - see link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xd1cpBb8SDY&t=1s
He talks about this is not done right and we have all been duped! (Well, maybe we have maybe not - time will tell?)
5. Whether this Consecration that was done on March 25, 2022 by our Pope Francis was a true one or not - have we been doing our part?
Have we been praying the Rosary everyday?
Have we been doing our Five First Saturdays?
Or even First Fridays? (This second devotion has lots of graces attached as well).
Have we been making any reparation...
perhaps, the Consecration is done (not sure) - but we have NOT been doing our part - and war (Russia) will continue. Let us continue to fight the good fight and pray - whether we know this Consecration has been done right or not.
Anyway, I tend personally to lean to what Father says above in his video - that we may have more to suffer first. Perhaps, even 3 days of darkness (maybe I'll write about that one another day). Maybe, God wants his own "reset" to be done first before peace can happen.
So, join me in doing our part - pray!! Pray the Rosary! Amen!
