The prayers he taught them are simple in structure and profound in depth. To a world poor and in needy in faith and charity, these prayers stress ancient truths of our Holy Catholic Church, especially concerning the Holy Eucharist. Recite these prayers oen to make reparation to Our dear Lord in the Most Blessed Sacrament: The Pardon Prayer My God, I believe, I adore, I hope, and I love Thee! I beg pardon for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not hope, and do not love Thee. (3 times) The Angel’s Prayer With the Blessed Sacrament suspended in the air, the angel at Fatima pros- trated himself, and recited the following prayer: O Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Ghost, I adore Thee profoundly, and I offer Thee the Most Precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in all the tabernacles of the world, in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges and indifferences by which He is offended. And by the infinite merits of His most Sacred Heart and the Im- maculate Heart of Mary, I beg the conversion of poor sinners. “The Angel of Portugal at Fátima” By Fr. William Wagner, ORC Of Opus Sanctorum Angelorum This little book retells the angel’s lessons to the three shepherd children, and how they, following his guidance, grew in a short time to heroic sanctity. Thus, well prepared for the Blessed Virgin’s coming at Fatima, they convincingly convey her message to those who have ears to hear. You, too, can enter this angelic school, gain new depths in your spiritual life and so find peace, joy and purpose by con- forming your life to God’s salvific plan.
