She came to the little village of Fatima which had remained faithful to the Catholic Church during the recent persecutions by the government. Our Lady came with a message from God to every man, woman, and child of our century. Our Lady of Fatima promised that the whole world would be in peace, and that many souls would go to Heaven if Her requests were listened to and obeyed. She told us that war is a punishment for sin; that God would punish the world for its sins in our time by means of war, hunger, persecution of the Church and persecution of the Holy Father, the Pope, unless we listened to and obeyed the commands of God. The message is an anguished appeal of our Heavenly Mother, Who sees us in great danger and Who comes to offer Her help and advice. Her message is also a prophesy, a clear indication of what was about to transpire in the 20th century, and what is still going to happen infallibly in the near future, depending on our response to Her requests. In all Her appearances at Fatima, the Blessed Mother repeatedly emphasized the necessity of praying the Rosary daily, of wearing the Brown Scapular of Mount Carmel and of performing acts of reparation and sacrifice. She also asked that the Faithful practice a new devotion of reparation on the first Saturday of five consecutive months ("The Five First Saturdays")
As a great sign of the whole message truly coming from God, a marvelous miracle was worked in the sky above Fatima before 70,000 witnesses on October 13, 1917, the time, date and place that Lucy and the other two children had prophesized in the name of Our Lady of Fatima. The children were told by Our Lady that God would perform a miracle so that people would believe in the apparitions. The date the children was October 13, 1917, in Fatima. On that date, 70,000 people came to see the phenomenon. The miracle occurred with the sun. All could stare perfectly at the sun without blinking, or even hurting their eyes. While all were watching the sun, it rotated, got large and small, got close to the people, and got far away from them. The sun "danced ". Every single person who was there testified to seeing the sun dance, even non-believers who immediately dropped onto their knees and begged for forgiveness.
Our Lady of Fatima continues to work miracles today through Fatima water which is sent from Fatima, Portugal around the world. This Fatima water sprang up in Fatima at the spot the Bishop told people to dig, very near where Our Lady appeared at the Cova de Iria (the Cove of Peace) in Fatima. The water is known to cure people with sickness and poor health. Still, other people are cured when they go on pilgrimage to Fatima, which is about 90 miles north of Lisbon, Portugal.
Today is also Mother’s Day! It is said that the heart that is closest to God’s heart is that of a mother. Only God knows the untold sacrifices, pain, labor, and love of mothers! Thank you, dear mothers!
Happy Mother’s Day! Z Biurka Ojca Jerzego 100 - lecie Objawień Matki Bożej Fatimskiej
W chwili objawień Najświętszej Maryi Panny, Łucja de Jesus, Franciszek i Hiacynta Marto mieli po dziesięć, dziewięć i siedem lat. Cała trójka mieszkała w Aljustrel, w miejscu należącym do parafii fatimskiej. Objawienia miały miejsce na małym skrawku ziemi należącym do rodziców Łucji, nazywanym Cova da Iria, i znajdującym się dwa i pół kilometra od Fatimy na drodze do Leirii. Matka Boża ukazała się im na krzewie zwanym ilex, będącym karłowatą odmianą dębu, mierzącym nieco ponad metr wysokości. Franciszek widział Maryję, lecz Jej nie słyszał. Hiacynta Ją widziała i słyszała. Łucja natomiast widziała, słyszała i rozmawiała z Nią. Objawienia miały miejsce około południa. Tak wyglądało pierwsze z sześciu objawień: 13 maja 1917 roku W momencie, gdy uwaga trójki wizjonerów została przyciągnięta przez podwójny blask, podobny do błyskawic, bawili się w Cova da Iria. Później zobaczyli oni Matkę Boską na zielonym dębie. Była to, zgodnie z opisem siostry Łucji, Pani ubrana na biało, bardziej błyszcząca niż słońce, promieniejąca światłem czystszym i intensywniejszym od kryształowego pucharu z wodą, prześwietlonego promieniami słonecznymi. Jej nieopisanie piękna twarz nie była ani smutna, ani radosna, lecz poważna i malował się na niej wyraz łagodnego napomnienia. Miała dłonie złączone jakby w geście modlitwy, które opierały się na piersiach i które były zwrócone ku górze. Z jej prawej dłoni opadał różaniec. Jej szaty wydawały się całe utkane ze światła. Jej tunika była biała, tak jak i płaszcz ze złotym rąbkiem, który okrywał głowę Maryi, opadając aż do jej stóp. Wizjonerzy byli tak blisko Matki Bożej – w odległości około półtora metra – że znajdowali się w poświacie, która Ją otaczała lub którą roztaczała wokół. Rozmowa ich potoczyła się następująco:
MATKA BOŻA: Nie bójcie się, nie zrobię wam nic złego. ŁUCJA: Skąd Pani jest? MATKA BOŻA: Jestem z nieba (i wzniosła rękę wskazując na niebo). ŁUCJA: A czego Pani ode mnie chce? MATKA BOŻA: Przyszłam was prosić, abyście przychodzili tu przez sześć kolejnych miesięcy, trzynastego dnia, o tej samej godzinie. Potem powiem wam, kim jestem i czego chcę. Następnie powrócę tu jeszcze siódmy raz. ŁUCJA: A ja też pójdę do nieba? MATKA BOŻA: Tak, pójdziesz. ŁUCJA: A Hiacynta? MATKA BOŻA: Także. ŁUCJA: A Franciszek? MATKA BOŻA: Również, ale musi jeszcze odmówić wiele różańców. ŁUCJA: Czy Maria das Neves jest już w niebie? MATKA BOŻA: Tak, jest. Polskie Wiadomości ŁUCJA: A Amelia? MATKA BOŻA: Będzie w czyśćcu do końca świata. Czy chcecie ofiarować się Bogu, aby znosić wszystkie cierpienia, które On zechce na was zesłać, jako zadośćuczynienie za grzechy, którymi jest obrażany, oraz jako wyproszenie nawrócenia grzeszników? ŁUCJA: Tak, chcemy. MATKA BOŻA: A więc będziecie musieli wiele wycierpieć. Ale łaska Boża będzie waszą pociechą. Wymawiając te ostatnie słowa (łaska Boża etc.), rozchyliła po raz pierwszy dłonie przekazując nam światło – bardzo intensywne, jakby odblask wychodzący z Jej dłoni, które przenikając przez nasze piersi do najgłębszych zakątków duszy, spowodowało, że widzieliśmy siebie w Bogu, który był tym światłem, wyraźniej niż w najlepszym z luster. Wtedy pod wpływem jakiegoś wewnętrznego impulsu również nam przekazanego, padliśmy na kolana i powtarzaliśmy z głębi duszy: O Przenajświętsza Trójco, uwielbiam Cię! Boże mój, Boże mój, kocham Cię w Przenajświętszym Sakramencie! W chwilę później Matka Boża dodała: – Odmawiajcie różaniec codziennie, abyście uprosili pokój dla świata i koniec wojny. Następnie zaczęła się spokojnie unosić w kierunku wschodnim, aż zniknęła w nieskończonej dali. Światło, które Ją otaczało, jak gdyby torowało Jej drogę w gęstwinie gwiazd.
Modlitwa do Matki Bożej Fatimskiej Pani Aniołów, Potężna Niebios Królowo, Matko Boża i Matko nasza Fatimska; Tobie Bóg powierzył posłannictwo i władzę, abyś starła głowę szatana, i osłaniała swoje ziemskie dzieci przed jego złowrogim wpływem. Ciebie Syn Twój a Pan Nasz Jezus Chrystus dał nam jako Przedziwną Pomoc i Obronę, Ty zaś, Pełna Ducha Świętego, uzdrawiasz nas lekarstwem pokuty i orężem modlitwy różańcowej umacniasz do walki z mocami ciemności. Prosimy Cię pokornie, rozkaż hufcom anielskim, aby ścigały złe duchy, stłumiły ich zuchwałość, a zwalczając je wszędzie, strąciły na dno piekła. Święci Archaniołowie i Aniołowie, brońcie nas i strzeżcie nas. Amen www.fatima.pl Del escritorio de Padre Krzysztof (Kristof)
E l día de la madre, no es solamente para ofrecer, como muchos lo suelen hacer, un detalle de cariño una flor; sino primordialmente reconocer la importancia de la madre.
Antiguamente se decía: “madre sólo hay una”, y es verdad. Recordemos a la madre ejemplar de todos nosotros, la Virgen María, quien llevó en su vientre purísimo durante nueve meses al Hijo de Dios. En ese tiempo surge en Ella un amor sin límite a ese Niño, Jesús, que será infante, joven, y finalmente Hijo suyo en la cruz. Por eso, mamás, todas ustedes deben ser el ejemplo y el recuerdo de esa Madre de Dios.
Mamás, ustedes nos han llevado en su vientre durante nueve meses en que ya su amor, nos acompañaba. Por todo ese detalle y cariño, gracias.
Mamás, vean a María, vean en Ella el ejemplo. Hoy en su casa, en su hogar, algunas lejos de sus hijos, algunas cerca de ellos, algunas en el lecho del dolor de un hospital. Siempre vean a María como su ejemplo.
El ser madre es de tal categoría, es de tal maravilla, que es también tan hermoso cuando las mujeres lo asumen con responsabilidad. Por eso Jesús escucha ese piropo que le dicen de María: «bendita la madre que te trajo al mundo».
Esos piropos de amor en la época de Jesús son los mismos que hoy también les decimos a nuestras madres, ¡benditas mamás!, que han sabido cumplir el rol a veces difícil, a veces sacrificado, de ser madres, ese rol de educar a sus hijos. Una educación que supone cariño y ternura.
Dicen los médicos que los bebés ya reconocen la voz de su madre cuando están en el vientre. Ya empieza un cariño. Por eso cuando hoy celebramos este día de la madre no queremos solamente hablar de regalos, queremos hablar de María, de la Virgen, queremos hablar de las mamás a ejemplo de María; queremos hablar de los hijos, para que sepan querer mejor a sus madres, no sólo de palabra, sino con los hechos concretos.
Qué daría una madre por ver una sonrisa de sus hijos. Cuantas veces las madres mendigan una palabra de cariño, de agradecimiento, de perdón. El encuentro de las madres y sus hijos es algo que ilumina el mundo. Busca las palabras y háblale con cariño, dale un abrazo, dale un beso, dile que le pides perdón, que la quieres más que nadie. Pero que no sean sólo palabras. Cuántas veces el marido sin querer hace sufrir a su esposa, cuántas veces los hijos no saben devolverle a su madre con cariño, con obediencia, y con oración, todo su sacrificio.
Mamás, Dios las ha hecho para ser amadas, pero no para que se queden con ese amor, sino para dárselo a los demás, y por eso tengan la fortaleza de saber levantar esos hogares, cuando el hogar se tambalee, cuando se encuentra débil, ahí está la Virgen de Guadalupe con ustedes para decirte a ti mujer y madre, ama a tus hijos.
Mamá, la mía está en el cielo, a ti joven o anciana, estés donde estés, serás cada día más alegre, mejor y más plena cuando sepas amar más. Que el Señor bendiga todos sus hogares. ¡Felicitaciones y bendiciones a todas las Madres en su día! Rincón Parroquial

Thanks in advance for your generous help. THE WAY Today we sense the apostles’ trepidation as they begin to realize that the Lord would soon be leaving them. In their fear, they ask, “Master, we do not know where you are going; how can we know the way?” (John 14:5). Jesus tells them that he is the way. The Easter season has been a time of growing in Easter faith so that we, too, may learn to know that Jesus is the way. We can take comfort in the Lord’s promise that he is going to his Father’s house to prepare a place for us, his chosen people who have been called out of darkness into God’s wonderful light. As the paschal candle continues to burn during this holy season, let us remember that in bap- tism we were given the light of Christ. With Christ our light as the beacon lighting our way, let us march to- ward the glory of Pentecost. © Copyright, J. S. Paluch Co.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION In many parish churches, more rarely in monastery churches and cathedrals, the tabernacle with the Blessed Sacrament is visible from a doorway or aisle in the church. Normally, a person is to give the proper sign of reverence, a genuflection, when passing in proximity to the tabernacle. The word “genuflect” comes from Latin roots meaning bending (or flexing) the knee. A common-sense exception to the rule is for a sacris- tan who is taking care of the church and can’t be genuflecting every thirty seconds during a vacuum run. Also excepted are persons in procession entrusted with important symbols of the Lord’s presence. So, a crossbearer or a minister carrying the Gospel book, or ministers on their way to their Communion stations do not genu- flect. For everyone else, the usual sign of reverence for the Lord’s presence in the Blessed Sacrament is to gen- uflect on the right knee. The oldest form of reverence during prayer in our tradition is standing; kneeling or genuflecting is a sign borrowed from old civic practice. The posture of kneeling, even on one knee, is a sign of submission. Servants would take this position before their masters in the ancient world. It said: I’m not running away, I’m yours, I’m here for you. This is what your genuflection says when you enter a Catholic church where the place of res- ervation of the Blessed Sacrament is visible to you: I’m yours. —Rev. James Field, © Copyright, J. S. Paluch Co.
