Mary's Monthly Answer To A World At War
- Our Lady of Fatima appeared monthly from May to October 1917 to three peasant children, offering messages meant for the whole world during World War I.
- The timing linked Mary’s appearances to a global novena Pope Benedict XV called for amid the war’s devastation.
Angel's Catechesis Prepared The Children
- An angel (likely St. Michael) first taught the children a simple prayer centering worship of God: "My God, I believe, I adore, I hope in thee, and I love thee."
- That catechesis prepared the children’s hearts for Marian messages and emphasizes God seeking out the humble.
Use The Rosary As A Spiritual Weapon
- Pray the rosary daily and offer sacrifices for sinners as the spiritual weapon Mary gave at Fatima to pursue conversion and peace.
- Sister Mary Stella contrasts worldly armaments of WWI with the rosary as the effective means to end spiritual causes of war.
