After nearly 105 years Pope Francis and the Bishops of the world consecrated Russia to her Immaculate Heart. We dedicated this 1513 to the Immaculate Heart of Mary before knowing the plan of saint Joseph to arrange everything in a miraculous way for the consecration that happened last March 25, 2022, on the day of the Annunciation, which is also the anniversary of the departure of Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre from this world.
Our grave duty is clearly the Communion of reparation, and the devotion of the First Saturdays is answering perfectly to this second demand of our Lady to obtain the necessary protection and graces that we need in our time.
It consists in going to Confession, receiving Communion, reciting five decades of the Rosary, and meditating for a quarter of an hour on the mysteries of the Rosary on the first Saturday of five consecutive months. The Confession may be made during the eight days preceding or following the first Saturday of each month, provided that Holy Communion be received in the state of grace. Should one forget to form the intention of making reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, it may be formed at the next Confession, occasion to go to confession being taken at the first opportunity. (Dom Jose Correia da Silva, first Bishop of Fatima).
Our Lady wants the Church to return to the holy Eucharistic devotion and practice.
