Excerpt from The Spirituality of Fatima
by Father Carter, S.J.
More than 30,000 people
were present in September, and saw a shower of mysterious white petals
fall to within 10 feet of the ground before dissolving into the air. Many
also saw the globe of light bearing the Lady come to rest atop the tree,
and the branches bend as though someone were standing on them. Later, they
saw the cloud depart into the east, from whence it had come.(16)

Today's First Reading
Exodus 32: 7-11, 13-14
Yahweh then said to Moses, ‘Go down at once, for your
people whom you brought here from Egypt have become corrupt. They have quickly
left the way which I ordered them to follow. They have cast themselves a metal
calf, worshipped it and offered sacrifice to it, shouting, "Israel, here
is your God who brought you here from Egypt!" ’ Yahweh then said to
Moses, ‘I know these people; I know how obstinate they are! So leave me now,
so that my anger can blaze at them and I can put an end to them! I shall make
a great nation out of you instead.’
Moses tried to pacify Yahweh his God. ‘Yahweh,’ he said,
‘why should your anger blaze at your people, whom you have brought out of
Egypt by your great power and mighty hand?
Remember your servants Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to whom you
swore by your very self and made this promise: "I shall make your
offspring as numerous as the stars of heaven, and this whole country of which
I have spoken, I shall give to your descendants, and it will be their heritage
for ever." ’ Yahweh then relented over the disaster which he had
intended to inflict on his people.

Jesus speaks:
My dear people on the retreat,
This is an important time for you
and for the world.
I have asked you to pray for the
priests, the Church and the world.
Those new retreatants should not
fill in the hours of night adoration
so you can be ready during the day.
Servants and handmaids may if
necessary take the evening hours, but
I strongly desire others apostles etc. to fill
the night time hours, since they (servants and
handmaids from China and Cincinnati) do the
adoration hours daily and need to be here for
the retreat.
I will bless those who come and do
adoration in My Eucharistic center
in China.
My retreatants — I have picked
a special program for you. After
reading the discernment of spirits
from St. Ignatius Spiritual Exercises, I have requested
you listen to the talk given August 13,
2004 in the afternoon while the hurricane
came close to Clearwater and changed
direction. Listen and pray for the concerns
from the hurricane that rages in the waters
now.
Tomorrow is the 13th — the hurricane
raged on August 13, the hurricane is a
threat to you September 13, My messenger
and all in Clearwater were confined to
the building (in Florida) praying on September 5 while
a hurricane raged across Florida.
I have sent My messenger as an
intercessor — leading prayer sessions
to pray for mercy — to tell God that you
are sorry for your sins and the sins
of the people of the earth. I have
sent her as a messenger to lead prayer
sessions begging for God's mercy for
the souls of this earth and the earth to be
as I desire.
The 13ths have been held for almost
7 years as large group gatherings, held
monthly praying as intercessors united
to the Mass, praying to the Father, in
My Name with all the angels and saints
and souls in purgatory united to the Holy
Sacrifice of the Mass around the
world, praying as a body.
Mary appeared at Fatima May 13, 1917,
June 13, 1917, July 13, 1917, and
September 13, 1917, October 13, 1917 on
August 13, 1917 the children were
jailed.
Excerpt from The Spirituality of Fatima
August 13, 1917
"Because of the excitement caused by the
apparitions, the civil authorities were so alarmed that they kidnapped the
three young visionaries and put them in jail. The incarceration period
included the day of August 13. Consequently, Our Lady did not appear to
the children on this particular 13th. The authorities, fearing reaction on
the part of the people, quickly released the children.
August 19, 1917
Mary appeared to them on August 19 near Valinhos:
She told them she was greatly displeased by the action of the mayor. As a
result, the miracle promised for October would not be as impressive as
originally planned. (15)"

Jesus speaks:
World War II raged for You
did not obey the messages of Our
Lady at Fatima —
Excerpts from The Spirituality of Fatima
by Father Carter, S.J.
May 13, 1917
"Do not be afraid, I will do
you no harm..... I am from Heaven.
"I have come to ask you to come
here for six months in succession, on the 13th day, at the same hour. Later
on, I will tell you who I am and what I want
"Are you willing to offer
yourselves to God and bear all the sufferings He wills to send you, as an
act of reparation for the sins by which He is offended, and in supplication
for the conversion of sinners?
"Pray the Rosary every day in
order to obtain peace for the world, and the end of the war."
(8)
June 13, 1917
"God wishes you to
remain in the world for some time because He wants to use you to establish
in the world the devotion to my Immaculate Heart. I promise salvation to
those who embrace it, and their souls will be loved by God as flowers placed
by myself to adorn His throne." (10)
July 13, 1917
"During her appearance in July,
Our Lady, in answer to Lucia's plea, promised that in October she would
work a great miracle so that all might believe and know who she was.
Again, the Mother of God told the children to sacrifice themselves for
sinners and to say many times, especially when making a sacrifice, this
prayer: "O my Jesus, I offer this for love of Thee, for the
conversion of poor sinners, and in reparation for all the sins committed
against the Immaculate Heart of Mary." (11)
"During this same July apparition,
Mary showed the three children a vision of Hell. She told them:
"You have seen Hell, where
the souls of poor sinners go. To save them, God wishes to establish, in
the world, devotion to my Immaculate Heart. If people do what I tell you,
many souls will be saved and there will be peace.
"The war (World War I, then
raging) is going to end. But if people do not stop offending God, another
and worse one will begin in the reign of Pius XI. When you shall see a
night illuminated by an unknown light [January
2, 1938], know that this is the great sign that God gives you that He
is going to punish the world for its many crimes by means of war, hunger,
and persecution of the Church and the Holy Father. (12)
"To prevent this, I shall
come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart and the
Communion of Reparation on the five first Saturdays. If my requests are
granted, Russia will be converted and there will be peace. If not, she
will scatter her errors throughout the world, provoking wars and
persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred, the Holy Father
will have much to suffer, and various nations will be destroyed....
"But in the end, my
Immaculate Heart will triumph, the Holy Father will consecrate Russia to
me, Russia will be converted, and a certain period of peace will be
granted to the world." (13)
August 19, 1917
She told them she was
greatly displeased by the action of the mayor. As a result, the miracle
promised for October would not be as impressive as originally planned.

More than 30,000 people
were present in September, and saw a shower of mysterious white petals fall
to within 10 feet of the ground before dissolving into the air. Many also
saw the globe of light bearing the Lady come to rest atop the tree, and the
branches bend as though someone were standing on them. Later, they saw the
cloud depart into the east, from whence it had come.(16)
October 13, 1917
I am the Lady of the Rosary. I
have come to warn the faithful to amend their lives and to ask pardon for
their sins. They must not offend Our Lord any more, for He is already too
grievously offended by the sins of men. People must say the Rosary. Let
them continue saying it every day.(17)
While the people in attendance were
beholding the great Miracle of the Sun, the three young visionaries, and
they alone, were privileged to see striking visions in the heavens:
As Our Lady had promised, St. Joseph
had come with the Holy Family and had blessed the world. Then, Our Lady
appeared as the Mother of Sorrows, accompanied by her Divine Son, Who also
blessed the world. Finally, Lucy had seen the Blessed Virgin, dressed in
the brown robes of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, crowned as Queen of Heaven
and Earth, holding a brown Scapular in her hand, with her infant Son upon
her knee. However, in none of these visions had any of the figures spoken
to the children. (18)
Besides the messages associated with the
major Fatima apparitions, there were other revelations given by Our Lady.
Before Jacinta died, she told of other messages given her (during her illness)
by Mary:
More souls go to Hell because of
sins of the flesh than for any other reason.
Certain fashions will be introduced
that will offend Our Lord very much.
Many marriages are not good; they do
not please Our Lord and are not of God.
Priests must be pure, very pure.
They should not busy themselves with anything except what concerns the
Church and souls. The disobedience of priests, to their superiors and to the
Holy Father, is very displeasing to Our Lord.
I can no longer restrain the hand of
my Divine Son from striking the world with just punishments for its many
crimes.
If the government of a country
leaves the Church in peace and gives liberty to our Holy Religion, it will
be blessed by God.
Tell everybody that God gives graces
through the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Tell them to ask grace from her, and
that the Heart of Jesus wishes to be venerated together with the Immaculate
Heart of Mary. Ask them to plead for peace from the Immaculate Heart of
Mary, for the Lord has confided the peace of the world to her. (19)

on the 13th and during these days of
retreats as I have directed September 13-16.
Beg your Father for mercy.
When Mary appeared 14 months
daily July 5, 94 to September 5, 95 Mary
was ignored.
When I began the 13ths for public
gatherings October 13, 1996 and Fr. Carter
led the rosary there were 450 people on
Tom's Farm ——
These 13ths have been held in honor
of the Fatima apparitions and they are
My call to the people to
intercessory prayer for the souls of
the earth. These 13th prayer
sessions have been held monthly ever
since.
The 5ths were held monthly for
public gatherings beginning April 5,
1995.

Mary's
Message
from the Rosary of August 27,
1996
Mary speaks: I stood beneath the cross of my Son,
and my Heart was in such pain for I saw Him before my eyes. I saw Him
covered with blood. I saw Him die. My Heart, my children, my Heart to watch
my Son, but my Heart, my Heart, how I suffered for my little children of the
world that give in to this world and give up the love of my Son. O my little
children of light, I give you this message. Carry this light into the
darkness for your Mother Mary, for I stood beneath the cross and I cried. I
cried for the little ones. I cried for the young ones, the ones that do not
care and will lose their souls. How do I make you see for you will not
listen to me? What can I do? I come. I appear. I beg. I plead. I give you
these gifts from my Son, and you reject me. I do not deliver messages very
often anymore for I have been ignored. The message is the same. You do not
read the messages I have given to you. Please help me. Help the little
children. I appear. I appear. I appear, and I am ignored. I stood beneath
the cross, and I cried. I cried, and my Heart was in such anguish for my
little children, for I am searching for them this day as I searched for the
Child Jesus. Please, please help me. I cannot hold back the hand of my Son
any longer. I am Mary, your Mother. I ask you to help my children. You are
my children of light.
