July – Call to Action

Call to Action in response to Our Lady's Third Apparition on July 13, 1917

ChildrensofFatima
Facing eternal reality...

  1. God permitted Our Lady to reveal to the three children a tremendously powerful vision of hell.
  2. Our Lady also:
    • confirmed what the children saw in this vision.
    • confirmed that many people go to hell.
    • then told the children:
      • how to help many more people avoid hell.
      • what would definitely happen in the future of the three children.
      • what could happen in future of these children (all of which has already happened, most of it during Lucia's life, because she lived the longest).
      • what everyone (including all of our clergy and the Holy Father) must still do to prevent:
          many more people from going to hell.
          future chastisements from befalling many more people, if not the entire world.
      • what will happen, has happened, and is still happening when we continue to ignore God’s demands through Our Lady at Fatima.
      • what God promises to us if people would respond to His requests through Our Lady at Fatima.

This website is a call to action. But....

We provide the important content at the linked text above because, we must know and understand the responsibilities that we all carry if we are to do our part to work with Our Lord as He wishes through Our Lady and:

  • thus prevent further chastisements.
  • save our own individual soul by God’s grace and through the Sacraments.
  • help save the souls of others.

The time is already late; many people have already needlessly suffered and died (and perhaps rejected God at the hour of death) because of the inaction (or insufficient action) of many Catholics who came before us.

Our future or that of our children and grandchildren could, indeed, be bleak because of our own choices, but God has given us the plan by which we can and must cooperate with Him through Our Lady, who has spoken only in truth and love at any time, including on July 13, 1917.

The vision revealed the reality of hell, and many of Our Lady’s prophesies immediately following this vision have already come true. We (including our clergy) harm ourselves and our children and grandchildren if, as our ancestors did, we continue to ignore Our Lady’s warnings, which are God’s commands, to fulfill a good and safe future of God's true peace.

Our overall call to action from this July apparition is to:

  1. choose to believe essential truths of the Faith, as Our Lady reaffirmed them for the children and for us on July 13, 1917. (note: page down to July at that link)
  2. learn and remember what Our Lady told us at Fatima, especially during this apparition in July.
  3. do what we must to cooperate with God’s desires through Her at Fatima.
of Our Lady at Fatima on June 13, 1917.
The specifics of our call to action then include:

  1. choosing to believe that:
    • hell is just as real as the heaven promised to those who keep God’s commands.
    • people go to hell because they:
      • reject God’s commands.
      • refuse to identify mortal sins and fail to confess all those that they have committed.
      • often:
        • refuse to believe that hell is real.
        • live a life that reflects this mortal self-delusion.
    • the demons and the souls of many people who lived before us are already in hell.
  2. avoiding:
    • the careless use of the word “hell”.
    • any phrase in which you would tell someone (or wish someone) to go there. Hell:
      • is the place of greatest and almost unimaginable evil.
      • should not be mentioned lightly or in anger.
    • the comparison of anything that you suffer to the experience of hell, which is the place of greatest and truly unimaginable pain, incomparable to our own sufferings here. Given the sufferings of so many people – and perhaps even your own - it can be understandably difficult to believe that severe suffering in this life is not like hell, but the comparison is still inaccurate.
  3. praying daily:
    • that God will help you to avoid mortal sins, including those of impurity, which:
      • pertain to the Sixth and Ninth Commandments.
      • Our Lady told the three children are the main reason why so many people go to hell IF:
        • these sins are not confessed within the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
        • the penitent does not then try to avoid mortal sins.
    • for relatives, acquaintances, and even strangers so that they will also:
      • embrace these concepts.
      • avoid mortal sin.
      • enter the Catholic Faith and commend themselves to the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
  4. routinely examining your conscience and:
    • seeking the Sacrament of Reconciliation:
      • to confess mortal sins.
      • for the grace provided by Reconciliation, as strength to avoid mortal sins in the future.
    • avoiding the presumption that God will forgive you for a mortal sin just so you can:
      • choose to commit that mortal sin now or in the future.
      • then ask for forgiveness.
    • never being too afraid or embarrassed to confess any sin. This is often a problem for someone who has committed sins against purity. We must remember that:
      • our priests
        • have heard every type of sin.
        • won’t judge you.
        • perhaps won’t even remember what you said after you leave the confessional.
        • hear your confession in persona Christi (in the person of Christ) so that, by the power of the Holy Spirit, it is Christ who heals you through the priest during Reconciliation.
      • loving God means being brave and truly humble. Bravery and humility as they relate to Reconciliation involve admitting verbally the serious sins that could be embarrassing, but the very act of speaking those sins is part of our healing and strengthening process .
  5. praying the rosary
    • and include Our Lady's Fatima prayer at the end of each decade, as she gave it to us through the children at Fatima.
    • daily (see the May Call to Action for help to accomplish this).
  6. offering sacrifices (see the May Call to Action) while adding the new prayer below (as Our Lady instructed) whenever possible. Perhaps offer this prayer globally every day as part of your Morning Offering.

      "O my Jesus, it [my suffering or deliberate sacrifice this day] is for love of Thee, for the conversion of sinners, and in reparation for the sins committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary."
  7. properly observing the criteria for First Saturdays:
    • for at least the Five First Saturdays:
      • usually as graces for yourself, but these Saturdays could be offered for someone else.
      • in reparation for the sins against Our Lady’s Immaculate heart, including sins against Our Lady’s:
        • Immaculate Conception.
        • perpetual virginity.
        • divine maternity.
        • statues and images.
        • relationship with every child:
          • including “children” who have now grown into adults (because we are always children of God and thus spiritual children of Our Lady).
          • so that by loving Our Lady more, she will help to increase each person’s love for Jesus, Who is her Son and our Savior. (“Do whatever He tells you” [Jn 2:5])
      • to obtain the graces that she promises to anyone who properly and sincerely fulfills this act of reparation to her.
  8. continuing to attend First Saturdays as additional honor and reparation for Our Lady.
    • Perhaps offer those Saturdays in groups of five (i.e., First Five Saturdays) for anyone of your choice, as a spiritual help to them.
    • The same promises from Our Lady might not be attached to your sacrifice for someone if the person doesn’t offer these Saturdays themselves, but graces of some sort according to God’s will for that person will be granted.
  9. remembering Our Lady’s words to the children in the JULY apparition.
    • Many world problems beyond 1917 and even during our time could have been prevented if enough people had done as God asks through Our Lady at Fatima.
    • Continued war and serious social evils from today can still be stopped and others avoided if each of us does our part.
Remember the prophesies from Our Lady at Fatima that have already come true:

  1. God did perform a miracle through Our Lady on October 13, 1917.
  2. During the October apparition in 1917, Our Lady did tell the children who she was and what she wanted, just as she said she would during the July apparition.
  3. Our Lady did appear to (then Sister) Lucia in:
    • Pontevedra, Spain in 1925, to ask for the First Saturdays of Reparation for sins committed against Her Immaculate Heart. (Our Lord appeared with her.)
    • Tuy, Spain, in 1929 to ask for the consecration of Russia (by name and in union with all the bishops of the world on one day and using one prayer) to Her Immaculate Heart. Her appearance here was accompanied by a true Theophany, because God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit appeared with Her.
    • (Each apparition in Spain has been verified and approved by the Church.)

  4. A night illuminated by an unknown light [NOT the Northern Lights] did occur on January 25, 1938 and, to this day, has not been explained by natural means.
  5. A “future” pope (Pius XI) was elected in 1922.
  6. The early stages of World War II did begin under the reign of Pope Pius XI when Japan invaded Manchuria in September, 1931 and occupied this Chinese province until the end of WW II.
  7. WW II did leave the world with:
    • a tremendous loss of life and property.
    • persecutions of:
      • the Church and her clergy.
      • other groups of people, as well, especially the Jews.
    • extreme post-war suffering for survivors in the war-torn countries.
    • displacement of many large groups of people.

  8. Famines did break out and some were deliberate, such as the Holodomor – a huge famine in 1932-1933 - created by the Soviets to starve millions of Ukrainians while the Soviets stole their grain and then blamed their famine and protests on “Ukrainian nationalism”
  9. Persecutions continued (and still do) against the:
    • Church throughout the world.
    • Holy Father.
  10. Russia has spread her errors (and death) around the world.
    • Soviet Russia was the first nation to legalize abortion and create mandatory government-run “day-care” from birth, because all women were required to work.
    • Many good people, especially those who hold on to belief in God, have been tortured and martyred:
      • first in Ukraine and the Siberian gulags.
      • then in every land to which the Communist system has spread.
    • One need only look at a map of the world to see how far Soviet tentacles spread overtly.
    • One might even argue that communism has come to the US gradually and through the “back door” of social policies, many of which:
      • kill the innocent through abortion and euthanasia.
      • reduce Christian freedoms in daily society.
      • weaken or destroy the family.
      • become nationalized and then mandatory.
Our Blessed Lord Himself appeared to Sr. Lucy at Rianjo, Spain in August, 1931 to:

  1. express disappointment that His requests through Our Lady had not yet been honored.
  2. warn the clergy of dire consequences if they continued to ignore his requests through Our Lady.
Note that Our Blessed Lord’s 1931 appearance to Sr. Lucia at Rianjo, Spain was:
  • one month before Japan invaded the province of Manchuria, and the early hostilities for World War II began.
  • less than one year before the Holodomor in Ukraine.
ALL of the military and societal horrors and lies since 1917 have occurred throughout the world because, thus far, not enough people (including our clergy) have listened to and obeyed God’s commands through Our Lady at Fatima, as well those that she mentioned at Fatima and were confirmed in 1925 and 1929.

We have also ignored the direct warning from our Blessed Lord himself to Sr. Lucia in 1931, during which he warned His ministers that if they continued to ignore his requests, that they would meet the same fate as successive Kings of France who, beginning in 1689, were given 100 years to consecrate their kingdom to His Sacred Heart.

  • Will ADDITIONAL good people be martyred?
  • Will many nations be utterly destroyed and their people all be killed?
  • World history and current events since 1917 certainly indicate that this is a possibility because of the level of hatred in the world combined w/our levels of technology that can be used accidentally or by those who hate.
When seen through the lens of Our Lady’s words at Fatima, we should consider:
  • that almost ALL of the organized death, destruction, and societal upheavals that we have seen since 1917 have been due to failure to obey God’s requests through Our Lady.
  • contacting our priests, bishops, archbishops, and the Holy Father and respectfully asking all of them to work together so that the Holy Father will consider consecrating Russia by name to Our Lady’s Immaculate heart:
    • in union with ALL the bishops of the world.
    • on a single day at the same time.
    • using a single prayer that is prayed worldwide by each bishop or archbishop of EVERY diocese and archdiocese.
Our Lady of Fatima, please pray for us and for the success of our abilities to honor the centenary of your apparitions for our time and in every year to come.

Our Lady of Fatima, please pray with us that others will be inspired to learn more and act as God has requested through you at Fatima.
Our Lady of Fátima
