  • Locutions to the World (4/2/2011 – 11/7/2012)
    LOCUTIONS TO THE WORLD (4/2/2011 – 11/7/2012) Note: These locutions have ended on July 11, 2012 with a clear message from Mary. Instead, without explanation locutions instead continued, and are still available in books or in internet. But these subsequent locutions have been proved to be false, especially taking into account a very specific prediction of an economic collapse during the Papal visit in USA during September 2015. Then the main site was closed without any discernment. Prudentially these subsequent locutions are not part of this publication. Anyway, time will tell also about the predictions in the locutions contained in this book, in particular about a Marian priest that will become the Pope of Fatima, strictly linked to the future of Jerusalem and the whole world. Locutions to the World From http://www.locutions.org now closed 2 Locutions to the World LOCUTIONS TO THE WORLD (as formerly on locutions.org website) December 10, 2010 I will soon begin to speak to you for the whole world. You will receive these words as you have received all the other words. You will write the words down and record the proper dates. You will take these words to [your spiritual director] for his discernment. If his heart discerns that these messages should be released to the whole world, they will go forth. He will correctly say that these are being given to one of his directees. The time is short and that is why I have moved you so quickly. Introduction The beginning locutions are very special; focusing on the Fatima Vision (released by the Vatican (June 2000).

    Reflection Rev. John Woolley “Only a true child of Mine can know the loneliness of following Me. At times, My calling seems to isolate you even from those dearest to you, and who want only your happiness.” “Seeking My will will provoke frequent misunderstandings; there will be painful choices between following My way and another way (harmless on the surface) which is pleasing to those near you.” “Only a true child of Mine can enter into My loneliness when seen upon earth. But that is not all. Loneliness and misunderstanding served only to enhance My consciousness of the Father’s presence. In loneliness, I will be radiating, in your life, the quiet hope, which speaks clearly of My presence with you, I will be glorified in your life, increasingly”.48 It is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom.

  • Russia and the Leonine Prayers (1992)
    Russia and the Leonine Prayers (1992) by Rev. Anthony Cekada The Prayers after Low Mass and recent events in Russia AFTER MY ORDINATION to the priesthood in 1977, I followed the lead of other traditional priests in the U.S., and began an- nouncing that the Leonine Prayers — the three Hail Marys, the Salve Regina and the St. Michael prayer recited after Low Mass — were recited “for the conversion of Russia.” Having heard this intention announced for the umpteenth time, a faithful traditional Catholic in a church I serve recently inquired: “Why do we always have to pray for the conversion of Russia? Why can’t we pray for America instead?” It seemed like a fair question. I therefore set out to document what was surely the correct answer: that the Church, responding to Our Lady’s 13 July 1917 request at Fatima, had decreed that the object of these prayers was to obtain Russia’s conversion to the Catholic Faith. End of story — or so I thought. I consulted about 20 standard commentaries on the Mass and encountered something surprising: not one of them stated that the Leonine Prayers were connected with the Fatima Mes- sage. And not one of them said that the object of the prayers was to bring about Russia’s conversion to Catholicism. Having drawn a blank, I turned to a multi-volume work containing the texts of all the laws the Holy See has promulgated since 1917.1 The work contained a number of official decrees on the Leonine Prayers — but none of the decrees tied the prayers to the Fatima Message.

  • ECHO of MARY Queen of Peace 154
    ECHO ECHO OF MARY Queen of peace 154 November-December 2000 - Info Our Lady's message, 25 October 2000 Dear Children, Today I invite you to open yourselves up to prayer, that prayer may become joy for you. Renew prayer in your families and form prayer groups; that way you will experience joy in prayer and in communion. All those who pray and are members of prayer groups are open in their hearts to God's will and give joyful witness to God's love. I am with you; I carry you all in my heart and I bless you with my motherly blessing. Thank you for responding to my call. Form Prayer Groups! In last month's message Our Lady urged us to work more for God and His Kingdom. Today she is inviting us to open ourselves up to prayer. "Open yourself" - because if your heart, mind and soul are not open and willing to accept an encounter with God, then prayer (which is an encounter with Him) is not possible; it doesn't exist. Offering holocaust and sacrifices is not enough if one's heart is distant (Ps 51). To pray is to be in God's presence and be inundated, permeated and transformed by His Love so we can then work for Him and His Kingdom. To pray is to recognize oneself as a gift of God; and offer oneself as a gift to God, as Jesus and Mary did. It is then that the miracle of welcoming God into the world is fulfilled through prayer.

He ftrst journeyed to Fatima in May of 1982, to thank the Blessed Virgin for what he believes to be a direct intervention in the brutal attempt on his life that took place in Saint Peter's Square on May 13, 1981. Describing his "introduction" to Our Lady of Fatima in 1991, Pope John Paul II said: "Ten years ago I was introduced into the experience of Fatima which the Church has lived.
