*Spreading the Message of Our Lady of Fatima ~ Promoting Devotion to Her Immaculate Heart* 2016 Winter Newsletter
President's Report
This year, 2016 is coming to an end of spreading the message of Fatima.
Important Events:
On October 7, 2016 “The Children of the Eucharist, Holy Hour” at Christ the King, Concord NH was a great
success. The children processed in with the statue of our Lady. Rev. Richard A. Roberge along with the children prayed
each decade of the World Rosary: The Sorrowful Mystery, 1: Agony in Garden, Green, for families of Africa and that
all the world may grow in virtue of Hope. 2: Scourging at the Pillar, Blue, for Pacific Ocean and that all families may
grow in love for the Immaculate Heart of Mary. 3: Crowning with Thorns, White, for Europe and that all families may
grow in Purity of Mind, Body, and Soul. 4: Carrying of the Cross, Red, for the Americas and that all families may grow
in love for God and one another. 5: The Crucifixion, Yellow, for Asia and that all families may grow in Holiness. They
sang songs to Our Lady and dressed in clothing of the time of the apparitions of Fatima 1917. All present were pleased
and joined together to make this very special. (see pictures below)
The Annual World Apostolate of Fatima, W.A.F. Celebration of “The Miracle of the Sun” held on October 15, 2016
at St Mary Church, Newmarket, NH was also a great success. After a procession in to the church with the Immaculate
Heart of Mary statue with the Knights of Columbus and Marian groups, Rev. Marc Montminy opened with the
Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, prayers of the Angel of Peace, followed by guest speaker, David Carollo,
Executive Director of W.A.F., U.S.A. who spoke on Fatima and the Angel of Peace when he came in 1916 before Our
Lady of Fatima's apparitions, who came in 2017. (see pictures below)
The W.A.F. Board of Trustees meeting/Christmas Social was held on November 12, 2016 at St. Michael Parish,
Gabriel House, Exeter, NH. Planning for the 100th Anniversary of Our Lady of Fatima, we went over the calendar of
booked churches for the National Pilgrim Virgin Statue Tour July 7, through the 27, 2017. (see tour calendar for
churches booked below). Our members of the W.A.F. Board of Trustees were thanked for all they have done for Our
Lady in the past year and will do in the future. Following the meeting we shared refreshments and had a chance to
socialize. The next Board of Trustees meeting will be held at St. Michael Parish, Exeter, NH. on March 4, 2017 10:00
am to 2:00 pm in room #1 of the Gabriel House.
On November 17, 2016 Board members had a meeting with Bishop Peter A. Libasci at 11:00 am at his office in
Manchester NH. The May 2016 newly elected members to the W.A.F. Board of Trustee met our Bishop as required by
our constitution and bylaws. All who attended were so blessed to have this opportunity to him and to be blessed by our
Bishop to continue to spread the message of Our Lady of Fatima in this Manchester Dioceses of NH. (see picture
below)
I wish to thank all of you for your following and support all these years, those who donate to this apostolate and
receive this newsletter. God Bless you.

*** *** How to Live the Message *** *** Our Lady came to Fatima with a message to save the souls of her children from hell in the eternal order, and to
bring peace to their world in the temporal. The core of her message can be expressed in three simple sentences: 1. Addressing the eternal order, she told us that hell exists and that souls are being lost to it because there is no one to
make reparation for their sins. 2. Speaking of the temporal, she said that war is a consequence of sin. 3. The salvation
of souls and the attainment of world peace require the conversion of sinners. “People must stop offending God because
He is already so much offended.” [10-13-1917] Almost everything else she said, the things she asked us to do, and
her prophecies predicated on the nature of our response relate, either directly or indirectly, to those three
fundamental elements.
Our Lady’s Fatima Requests 1. Daily offer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, the sacrifices demanded by the
duties required of your state in life, as well as whatever hardships and difficulties God permits to touch your life, in
reparation for your own sins, for the sins of others, and for the conversion of all sinners. In other words, “offer it
up.” This expression which so many of us were taught by our parents isn’t heard much these days. Sister Lucia
considered the living out of this disposition the most fundamental and important practical, everyday response to Fatima.
2. Pray part of the Rosary daily while meditating on the Mysteries in reparation for sin, for the conversion of sinners,
and for world peace.
3. Wear the Brown Scapular of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel as both a sign and a reminder of your consecration to the
Immaculate Heart of Mary, and as a protection against the snares of Satan.
4. Practice the devotion of the Communion of Reparation on the first Saturday of each month.
5. Contribute to the establishment of devotion to The Immaculate Heart of Mary in the world by spreading the Message
of Fatima to others.
The honoring of all of these requests taken collectively and derivatives thereof constitutes the devotion to the
Immaculate Heart of Mary which Our Lady told Lucia God desired. This is the W.A.F. Pledge to Our Lady of Fatima.
Resources for Knowledge & Understanding Our Lady’s Message of Fatima
The best and most comprehensive expose on the entire Fatima affair is Father Andrew Apostoli’s book “Fatima for Today.”
A glimpse into Sister Lucia’s mature understanding of the call of Fatima to the world is contained in her book “Calls From The Message of
Fatima.”
