Humanity is threatened with an atomic war, with its accompany- ing suffering, misery, death and destruc- tion such as has never been seen in the entire history of mankind. The only hope for averting these dis- asters lies in the fulfillment, by a suffi- cient number of people, of the requests made by the Blessed Virgin at Fatima, Portugal, in 1917. If these simple re- quests are heeded in time, World War III will be averted, the mental and spiritual ills of mankind cured, and a lasting PEACE secured. FATIMA IS THE ONLY HOPE FOR TRUE PEACE IN THE WORLD TODAY. This booklet is offered as a guide to those who wish to fulfill Our Lady's wishes.
