Cenacle
"Cenacle" is a word for the upper room where Jesus?apostles
gathered together in prayer with his mother Mary, and the Holy
Spirit powerfully descended upon them. It was during this original
Pentecost that the Catholic Church was born. Two thousand years
later, Our Lady renews the call to gather together with her in
cenacle of prayer in anticipation of the Holy Spirit.
Invocation to the Holy Spirit
Come Holy Spirit, come by means of the powerful intercession of
the Immaculate Heart of Mary, your well beloved spouse. (3 times)
The Holy Rosary
After the Fatima Prayer at the end of each decade, add
Oh Sacrament most holy, Oh Sacrament divine, All praise and all
thanksgiving Be every moment Thine.
Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel
Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our
protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil; may God
rebuke him, we humbly pray. O Prince of the heavenly host, by the
power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who
wander through the world for ruin of souls. Amen.

The Act of Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
(for Religious and Laity)
Virgin of Fatima, Mother of Mercy, Queen of Heaven and Earth,
Refuge of Sinners, we who belong to the Marian Movement consecrate
ourselves in a very special way to your Immaculate Heart.
By this act of consecration we intend to live, with you and
through you, all the obligations assumed by our baptismal
consecration. We further pledge to bring about in ourselves that
interior conversion so urgently demanded by the Gospel, a
conversion that will free us of every attachment to ourselves and
to easy compromises with the world so that, like you, we may be
available only to do always the will of the Father.
And as we resolve to entrust to you, O Mother most sweet and
merciful, our life and vocation as Christians, that you may
dispose of it according to your designs of salvation in this hour
of decision that weighs upon the world, we pledge to live it
according to your desires, especially as it pertains to a renewed
spirit of prayer and penance, the fervent participation in the
celebration of the Eucharist and in the works of the apostolate,
the daily recitation of the Holy Rosary, and an austere manner of
life in keeping with the Gospel, that shall be to all a good
example of the observance of the law of God and the practice of
the Christian virtues, especially that of purity.
We further promise you to be united with the Holy Father, with
the hierarchy and with our priests, in order thus to set up a
barrier to the growing confrontation directed against the
Magisterium, that threatens the very foundation of the Church.
Under your protection, we want moreover to be apostles of this
sorely needed unity of prayer and love for the Pope, on whom we
invoke your special protection.
And lastly, insofar as is possible, we promise to lead those
souls with whom we come in contact to a renewed devotion to you.
Mindful that atheism has caused shipwreck in the faith to a great
number of the faithful, that desecration has entered into the holy
temple of God, and that evil and sin are spreading more and more
throughout the world, we make so bold as to lift our eyes
trustingly to you, O Mother of Jesus and our merciful and powerful
Mother, and we invoke again today and await from you the salvation
of all your children, O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
(For Young People)
Virgin of Fatima, my dearly beloved Mother, I who belong to the
Marian Movement, consecrate myself today, in a very special way,
to your Immaculate Heart. By this solemn act, I offer my whole
life to you; my heart, my soul, my body and especially this time
of my youth in which I am now living. Guide me along the way that
Jesus has traced out for us: The way of love, of goodness and of
sanctity.
Help me to flee from sin, from evil and from egoism and to resist
temptations to violence, to impurity and to drugs. I promise you
to go to confession often and to receive Jesus into my heart as my
spiritual food of life, to observe the commandments of God and to
walk along the road of love and of purity.
I want to be a witness of unity by my great love for the Pope,
for my Bishops and for my Priests. I love you, O sweetest Mother
of mine, and I offer you my youth for the triumph of your
Immaculate Heart in the world.

Message # 201, June 14, 1980
Until I am acknowledged there where the Most Holy Trinity has
willed me to be, I will not be able to exercise my power fully, in
the maternal work of co-redemption and of the universal mediation
of graces.
Sons, let yourselves be transformed by my powerful action as
Mother, Mediatrix of Graces, and co-redemptrix.
Message # 203, July 13, 1980
My role as true Mother and Co-Redemptrix will become manifest to
all.
The task which the Most Holy Trinity has entrusted to me will be
acknowledged by all.
Message # 204, July 16, 1980
Beloved children, I am the Mediatrix of Graces.
Message # 326, June 7, 1986, Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary
In these times, you have need above all of being defended from the
terrible snares of my Adversary, who has succeeded in establishing
his reign in the world. It is the reign which is opposed to
Christ; it is the reign of the Antichrist. In this last part of
your century, this reign of his will reach the peak of its
strength, of its power, of its great seduction. The hour is in
preparation when the man of iniquity, who wants to put himself in
the place of God to have himself adored as God, is about to
manifest himself in all his power.
Message # 328, July 30, 1986
I am caught between two swords, which pierce my motherly heart. On
the one hand I see the great danger into which you are running,
because of the chastisement which is already at the doors; and on
the other I see your inability to believe and to accept the
invitations to conversion, which I am giving you, so that you may
flee from it.
Message # 332, September 6, 1986
Because this humanity has not accepted my repeated call to
conversion, to repentance, and a return to God, there is about to
fall upon it the greatest chastisement which the history of
mankind has ever known. It is a chastisement much greater than
that of the flood. Fire will fall from heaven and a great part of
humanity will be destroyed.
Message # 343, December 31, 1986
Peace will come, after the event of the terrible chastisement,
which I have already announced to you beforehand, at the dawn of
this century of yours.
Message # 344, January 1, 1987, Feast of Mary, Mother of God
I am the dawn which is arising to announce the great day of the
Lord.
Message # 345, February 2, 1987, Feast of the Presentation of the
Child Jesus in the Temple
My light which is spreading more and more in hearts and souls - as
a rising dawn in the long dark night in which you are still living
- is announcing to you that the great day of the Lord is near.
Message # 351, May 13, 1987, Milan, Italy, Anniversary of the
First Appearance at Fatima
But you are now beginning to live through that which I had
foretold to you at Fatima for the last years of this century of
yours and which is still guarded under the veil of secrecy.
Message # 357, July 3, 1987
These are the times of the great chastisement. These times are
closer than you think. Already during this Marian year, certain
great events will take place, concerning what I predicted at
Fatima and have told, under secrecy, to the children to whom I am
appearing at Medjugorje. These are the times of the great return.
Message # 362, September 15, 1987, Akita, Japan, Feast of Our Lady
of Sorrows
I have led you today to this place blessed by me, before the
statue which recalls the mystery of my co-redemption.
I stood beneath the Cross of Jesus. I am beneath the cross which
each of my sons is carrying. I am beneath the Cross which the
Church and all this poor sinful humanity is carrying today. I am
true Mother and true Co-redemptrix.
From the eyes of this image of myself I have caused miraculous
tears to fall more than a hundred times and over the course of
several years.
Why am I still weeping? I am weeping because humanity is not
accepting my motherly invitation to conversion and to its return
to the Lord.
A chastisement worse than the flood is about to come upon this
poor and perverted humanity. Fire will descend from heaven and
this will be the sign that the justice of God has as of now fixed
the hour of His great manifestation.
Even now, that which I predicted at Fatima and that which I have
revealed here in the third message confided to a little daughter
of mine is in the process of being accomplished. And so, even for
the Church the moment of its great trial has come, because the man
of iniquity will establish himself within it and the abomination
of desolation will enter into the holy temple of God.
Message # 365, October 9, 1987, Taipei (Taiwan)
At last the moment has come when I, the Woman clothed with the
Sun, will conquer the Red Dragon.
Message # 366, October 13, 1987, Hong Kong, 70th anniversary of
the Last Apparition at Fatima
[Revelation 12:1 A great sign appeared in the sky, a woman clothed
with the sun.]
These are seventy years during which I have descended from heaven
into your midst as the Woman Clothed with the Sun. These are
seventy years during which my Adversary, Satan, has come up from
the abyss into your midst, to manifest himself as the Red Dragon
in all his terrible power.
Message # 368, December 8, 1987, Feast of the Immaculate
Conception
[Matthew 24:21 For there shall be then great tribulation, such as
hath not been from the beginning of the world until now, neither
shall be.]
You are living the painful times of the chastisement, you are
living the dark hour of the victory of my Adversary, who is the
Prince of Night. You are living the most difficult moments of the
purification. And so I urge you to take refuge in the secure
dwelling place of my Immaculate Heart and to let yourselves be
enwrapped in the heavenly mantle of my most pure light.
Message # 370, December 31, 1987
Know how to read and to meditate upon that which, in sacred
scripture, has been clearly described for you to help you
understand the time in which you are living. With my motherly
voice I am leading you all to understand the signs of the great
tribulation. From the Gospels, from the Letters of the Apostles
and from the Book of the Apocalypse, sure signs have been clearly
described for you to make you understand what the period of the
great tribulation is. All these signs are in the act of being
realized in your time.
-First of all, a great apostasy is spreading in every part of the
Church, through the lack of faith which is flooding even among its
very pastors. Satan has succeeded in spreading everywhere the
great apostasy, by means of his subtle work of seduction, which
has brought many to be alienated from the truth of the Gospel to
follow the fables of the new theological theories and to take
delight in evil and in sin, sought after as an actual good.
-Then, in your time, overturnings of the order of nature are
multiplying, such as earthquakes, droughts, floods, and disasters
which cause the unforeseen death of thousands of persons, followed
by epidemics and incurable diseases which are spreading
everywhere.
-Moreover, your days are marked by continual rumors of wars which
are multiplying and are reaping, each day, innumerable victims.
Conflicts and dissensions within countries are increasing; revolts
and struggles between various peoples are propagating; bloody wars
are continuing to extend themselves, notwithstanding all the
efforts which are being made to attain peace.
-Finally, in your time, there are occurring great signs in the
sun, on the moon and in the stars. The miracle of the sun which
took place at Fatima was a sign I gave you to warn you that the
times of these extraordinary phenomena which are taking place in
the heavens have now arrived. And how many times during my present
apparitions have you yourselves been able to contemplate the great
prodigies that are taking place in the sun.
[Mark 13:28-29 Learn a lesson from the fig tree. Once the sap of
its branches runs high and it begins to sprout leaves, you know
that summer is near. In the same way, when you see these things
happening, you will know that he is near, even at the door.]
Just as the buds which sprout forth on the trees tell you that
spring has now arrived, so also these great signs which are taking
place in your time are telling you that even now there has come to
you the great tribulation, which is preparing you for the new era
which I have promised you with the triumph of my Immaculate Heart
in the world.
Message # 373, February 11, 1988, Manaus-Amazonas, Brazil, Feast
of Our Lady of Lourdes
[Genesis 3:15 I will put enmity between you and the woman and
between your offspring and hers: He will strike at your head,
while you strike at his heel.]
This century has been marked by my strong presence in your midst
and, in order to make it perceptible to all, I have everywhere
multiplied my miraculous manifestations.
Why am I, in these times, making myself present to you in a new,
continuous and extraordinary way? Because these are the times of
the reign of my Adversary, the Red Dragon, Satan, the old serpent
whose head I shall crush.
Message # 379, April 2, 1988, Holy Saturday
I came from heaven to ask you to offer me the first Saturday of
the month. I asked this of my daughter, Sister Lucia, when she was
in the convent of Pontevedra, on the 10th of December, 1925.
I am asking you to propagate again today the devotion to the first
Saturdays of the month. I had asked for this during the first part
of this century of yours; I am returning today to ask for it as
this century turns towards it most painful close.
Message # 382, May 13, 1988, Marienfried, Germany, Anniversary of
the First Appearance at Fatima
These are the times of the great mercy. The Heart of Jesus is
about to pour out torrents of his divine and merciful love. The
hour of the great mercy for the world has come. It will come down
as dew upon every wound; it will open the hardest of hearts; it
will purify souls immersed in sin; it will lead sinners to
conversion and will grant to everyone the grace of a complete
renewal.
Message # 383, May 22, 1988, Feast of the Pentecost
The Holy Spirit will come, to establish the glorious reign of
Christ and it will be a reign of grace, of holiness, of love, of
justice and peace. With His divine love, he will open the doors of
hearts and illuminate all consciences. Every person will see
himself in the burning fire of divine truth. It will be like a
judgment in miniature. And then Jesus Christ will bring His
glorious reign in the world.
Message # 384, June 11, 1988, Feast of The Immaculate Heart of
Mary
[Thessalonians 2:1-12: On the question of the coming of our Lord
Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we beg you, brothers,
not to be so easily agitated or terrified, whether by oracular
utterance, or rumor, or a letter alleged to be ours, into
believing that the day of the Lord is here.
Let no one seduce you, no matter how. Since the mass apostasy has
not yet occurred nor the man of lawlessness - that son of
perdition and adversary who exalts himself above every so-called
god proposed for worship, he who seats himself in God's temple and
even declares himself to be God - do you not remember how I used
to tell you about these things when I was still with you? You know
what restrains him until he shall be revealed in his own time. The
secret force of lawlessness is already at work, mind you, but
there is one who holds him back until that restrainer shall be
taken from the scene. Thereupon the lawless one will be revealed,
and the Lord Jesus will destroy him with the breath of His mouth
and annihilate him by manifesting His presence. This lawless one
will appear as part of the working of Satan, accomplished by all
the power and signs and wonders at the disposal of falsehood - by
every seduction the wicked can devise for those destined to ruin
because they have not opened their hearts to the truth in order to
be saved. Therefore God is sending upon them a perverse spirit
which leads them to give credence to falsehood, so that all who
have not believed the truth but have delighted in evildoing will
be condemned.]
The hour of the great apostasy has come. What has been foretold
in Holy Scripture, in the Second Letter of Saint Paul to the
Thessalonians, is now on the point of coming to pass.
Satan, my Adversary, with snares and by means of his subtle
seduction, has succeeded in spreading errors everywhere, under the
form of new and more updated interpretations of the Truth, and he
has led many to choose with full knowledge - and to live in - sin,
in the deceiving conviction that this is no longer an evil, and
even that it is a value and a good.
[Today the battle is especially painful because there is precise
aggression against women, against all sexual identity and unique
roles, and against the unique maternal role of THE woman as
"mother of the living." The battle against the woman has confused
and angered this generation of women, and men as well. The
confusion is such that we are fighting each other and do not
recognize the enemy, nor do most even know of his existence. Satan
has so confused our minds over the centuries that now he can
freely attack the fundamental identity of both men and women
without being identified as the enemy! (Spiritual Warfare, Attack
Against the Woman, Fr. George Kosicki, C.S.B., Faith Publishing
Company, 1990)]
The times of the general confusion and of the greatest agitation
of spirits has come. Confusion has entered into the souls and the
lives of many of my children.
This great apostasy is spreading more and more, even through the
interior of the Catholic Church. Errors are being taught and
spread about, while the fundamental truths of the faith, which the
authentic Magisterium of the Church has always taught and
energetically defended against any heretical deviation whatsoever,
are being denied with impunity.
The episcopates are maintaining a strange silence and are no
longer reacting. When my Pope speaks with courage and reaffirms
with force the truths of the Catholic faith, he is no longer
listened to and is even publicly criticized and derided. There is
a subtle and diabolical tactic, woven in secrecy by Masonry, which
is used today against the Holy Father in order to bring ridicule
upon his person and his work and to neutralize his Magisterium.
(see Humanum Genus, Encyclical of Pope Leo XIII on Freemasonry,
April 20, 1884)
In these times, in the Catholic Church, there will remain a
little remnant who will be faithful to Christ, to the Gospel, and
to its entire truth. The little remnant will form a little flock,
all guarded in the depths of my Immaculate Heart. This little
flock will be made up of those bishops, priests, religious and
faithful who will remain strongly united to the Pope, all gathered
together in the cenacle of my Immaculate Heart, in an act of
unceasing prayer, of continual immolation, of total offering to
prepare the painful way for the second and glorious coming of my
Son Jesus.
Message # 386, August 15, 1988, Feast of the Assumption of the
Blessed Virgin Mary into Heaven
[Matthew 24:22 And unless those days had been shortened, no flesh
should be saved: but for the sake of the elect those days shall be
shortened.
It is through the great response of prayer and penance, on the
part of so many of my children, that I have been able to obtain
from Divine Justice the setting aside once again of a great
chastisement which ought to have struck all humanity.
But now, with the close of this Marian Year, the space of time
granted by the Lord to humanity for its conversion is also on the
point of coming to a close. And now you are on the threshold of
the events of which I foretold to you.
Message # 389, September 18, 1988, Lourdes, France
You have entered into my times. On this day, I am asking you to
consecrate to me all the time that still separates you from the
end of this century of yours.
It is a period of ten years. These are ten very important years.
These are ten decisive years. I am asking you to spend them with
me because you are entering into the final period of the second
Advent, which will lead you to the triumph of my Immaculate Heart
in the glorious coming of my Son Jesus.
In this period of ten years there will come to completion that
fullness of time which was pointed out to you by me, beginning
with La Salette all the way to my most recent and present
apparitions.
In this period of ten years there will come to its culmination
that purification which, for a number of years now, you have been
living through and therefore the sufferings will become greater
for all.
[Matthew 24:29 And immediately after the tribulation of those
days, the sun shall be darkened and the moon shall not give her
light and the stars shall fall from heaven and the powers of
heaven shall be moved.]
[Revelation 6:12-13 And I saw, when he had opened the sixth seal:
and behold there was a great earthquake. And the sun became black
as sackcloth of hair: and the whole moon became as blood. And the
stars from heaven fell upon the earth, as the fig tree casteth its
green figs when it is shaken by a great wind.]
In this period of ten years there will come to completion the
time of the great tribulation, which has been foretold to you in
Holy Scripture, before the second coming of Jesus.
In this period of ten years, the mystery of the iniquity, prepared
for by the ever increasing spread of apostasy, will become
manifest.
In this period of ten years all the secrets which I have revealed
to some of my children will come to pass and all the events which
have been foretold to you by me will take place.
Message # 398, February 2, 1989, Milan, Feast of the Presentation
of the Child Jesus in the Temple
In these dark times of the great tribulation, if you do not allow
yourselves to be carried in my arms, with filial abandonment and
with great docility, it is difficult for you to succeed in
escaping the snares which my Adversary sets for you.
All can fall into his trap. Priests and even bishops can fall into
it. The faithful and even those consecrated can fall into it. The
simple and even the learned can fall into it. The disciples and
even the masters can fall into it.
Those will never fall into it who - as little children -
consecrate themselves to my Immaculate Heart and allow themselves
to be carried in my motherly arms. As of now, it will become ever
clearer to the Church and to the world that the little flock
which, in these years of the great apostasy, will remain faithful
to Jesus and to His Gospel, will be entirely protected in the
motherly enclosure of my Immaculate Heart.
Message # 403, May 6, 1989
[Revelation 12:1-6 A great sign appeared in the sky, a woman
clothed with the sun. Because she was with child, she wailed aloud
in pain as she labored to give birth. Then another sign appeared
in the sky: it was a huge red dragon, flaming red, with seven
heads and ten horns; and on his head were seven diadems. Then the
dragon stood before the woman about to give birth, ready to devour
her child when it should be born. She gave birth to a son - a boy
destined to shepherd all the nations with an iron rod. The woman
herself fled into the desert, where a special place had been
prepared for her by God.
12:9 The huge dragon, the ancient serpent known as the devil or
Satan, the seducer of the whole world, was driven out; he was
hurled down to earth and his minions with him.
12:13-17 When the dragon saw that he had been cast down to earth,
he pursued the woman who had given birth to the boy. But the woman
was given the wings of a gigantic eagle so that she could fly off
to her place in the desert. The serpent, however, spewed a torrent
of water out of his mouth to search out the woman and sweep her
away. The earth came to the woman's rescue by opening its mouth
and swallowing the flood which the dragon spewed out of his mouth.
Enraged at her escape, the dragon went off to make war on the rest
of her offspring, on those who keep God's commandments and give
witness to Jesus.]
By means of you who have responded to me, devotion to me is now
flourishing again in all the Church.
Thus I am able to exercise, in these times of yours, the great
power which has been given to me by the Most Holy Trinity, to
render harmless the attack which my Adversary, the Red Dragon, has
unleashed against me, vomiting from his mouth a river of water to
submerge me. The river of water is made up of the collection of
all the new theological doctrines, which have sought to obscure
the image of your heavenly Mother, to deny her privileges, to
restructure devotion to her, and to cast ridicule upon all those
who are devoted to her. Because of these attacks of the Dragon, in
these years, piety toward me has steadily diminished among many of
the faithful and, in some places, has even disappeared.
But to the help of your heavenly Mother there have come two wings
of the great eagle. The great eagle is the word of God, above all
the word contained in the Gospel of my Son Jesus.
Of the four Gospels, the eagle indicates that of Saint John,
because he flies higher than all, enters into the very heart of
the Most Holy Trinity, affirming with forcefulness the divinity,
the eternity, and the consubstantiality of the Word and the
divinity of Jesus Christ.
The two wings of the eagle are the word of God, received, loved
and kept with faith and the word of God lived with grace and
charity. The two wings of faith and charity - that is to say of
the word of God received and lived by me - permitted me to fly
above the river of water of all the attacks made upon me, because
they have manifested to the world my true greatness.
And then I sought refuge for myself in the desert. The desert, in
which I have made my habitual dwelling place, is made up of the
hearts and souls of those children who receive me, who listen to
me, who entrust themselves completely to me, who consecrate
themselves to my Immaculate Heart.
