The purpose of this Prayer Campaign, in honor of the 100th anniversary of Our Lady of Fatima's apparitions, is to offer prayers for the conversion of the whole world - that everyone and everything becomes every good thing God created them to be and thereby give to Almighty God, Jesus Christ and the Blessed Virgin Mary every good thing that They desire, deserve, want or need. Also, we pray fervently for Heaven's protection for everyone everywhere who is standing up against evil or for good, according to Heaven's definition of good and evil.
One hundred years ago, God's Just Anger was greatly roused by the countless unrepentant sins of the world. But, in His Mercy, God sent His Mother to warn us of the dire consequences of our sins. In fact, in 1917, the world was already feeling the effects of its evil in its first world-wide war. Our Lady of Fatima predicted the second World War and explained how war and famine (and other such evils) are a punishment for sins.
Now, in this 100th year since Our Blessed Mother's warnings - the battle of Good against evil rages on. The need for reparation is greater now than ever before!
Our Lady of Fatima's message is a powerful one. In Her plea for reparation, She is warning us that the fate of the world is in our hands. But She also assures us that the victory will be ours if we follow Her counsel: "If people will do what I will tell you, many souls will be saved, and there will be peace."
This Prayer Campaign is calling together everyone who wants to help Our Blessed Mother obtain peace for the world!
Sign Up today and join us with your prayers! As mentioned above, there is a specific intention for this Prayer Campaign:
The conversion of the whole world - that everyone and everything becomes every good thing God created them to be and thereby give to Almighty God, Jesus Christ and the Blessed Virgin Mary every good thing that They desire, deserve, want or need. Also, we pray fervently for Heaven's protection for everyone everywhere who is standing up against evil or for good, according to Heaven's definition of good and evil.

This devotion is an obvious and natural choice to use in this campaign since Our Lady Herself has attached great importance to its use in our modern day. At Her final apparition on October 13, 1917, Our Blessed Mother described Herself as "The Lady of the Rosary", and She exhorted people to "Continue to say the Rosary every day in honor of Our Lady of the Rosary to obtain peace for the world". From the very beginning of the Rosary's history, when Our Lady first gave this devotion to St. Dominic in 1214, its first use was to obtain the conversion of sinners. Our Blessed Mother has also attached many other powerful graces to the Rosary which are very crucial for these times.
"I promise My special protection and the greatest graces to all those who shall recite the Rosary."
"The Rosary shall be a powerful armour against hell. It will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies."
Follow the link below to also find the list of all 15 promises that She gave to St. Dominic for those who pray Her Rosary.

Devotion to the Holy Face obtains both reparation for sins and the defeat of God's enemies. The most powerful victory that can be won over the enemies of Christ is to obtain the conversion of these sinners!
In fact, among the promises that Our Lord made for those who invoke and honor His Holy Face is that "By offering My Face to My Eternal Father, nothing will be refused, and the conversion of many sinners will be obtained." And again, "By My Holy Face, they will work wonders, appease the anger of God, and draw down mercy on sinners."
This is a crucial and powerful way to obtain the reparation Our Blessed Mother was asking for. The prayers in this devotion are also very small and easy to say throughout the day on their own or with other prayers.

This devotion is one that directly honors the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and therefore has a very special significance for this Campaign. On July 13, 1917 Our Lady of Fatima told the children: "You have seen hell - where the souls of poor sinners go. To save them God wants to establish throughout the world the devotion to my Immaculate Heart."
Originally known as the "Badge of the Immaculate Heart", this little scapular has been used to obtain countless miracles since it was first given to the world in 1842. When invoked under this title and through this holy image, Our Lady promised that She would obtain great favors from Her Divine Son, especially in the areas of physical health, peace of mind and spiritual conversion. She, the Refuge of Sinners, would particularly obtain the conversion of those who had fallen away from the True Faith, and those poor sinners who had no faith. The prayer on the Green Scapular is very simple and easy to say frequently.
"Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us, now and at the hour of our death."
Pray this with great confidence! Our Lady of Fatima Herself promised us that: "In the end, my Immaculate Heart shall triumph."
Follow the links below for a history of this sacramental and the simple ways to practice its devotion. If you are in need of obtaining a Green Scapular, please let us know.
