Heckenkamp Dear Friends of Our Blessed Mother I was tremendously privileged to see and to hear one of the children of Fatima – the only one who is now alive. In the city of Coimbra in Portugal, the oldest of the three seers of Fatima, Lucy by name, is a cloistered Carmelite sister and I should tell you how it was that I came to see her.

  The Answer for Our Time: When enough Catholics fulfill Our Lady of Fatima’s 5 commands, we will merit the grace for the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart. We must fulfill all 5 commands, while in the state of grace, and stop offending God, with an intention of devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and in reparation for attacks against it. The 5 commands can be remembered by the phrase: “Roman Catholic S.O.S.” R.osary (daily) C.onsecrate (yourself to Mary) S.capular (wear the Brown Scapular) O.ffer your sufferings to Mary S.aturdays (First Saturday devotion) When enough Catholics fulfill Our Lady of Fatima’s 5 commands, we (the faithful) will merit the grace for the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart. Mary to the children (7/13/1917): “If people do what I tell you, many souls will be saved and there will be peace.” Jesus to Lucia (3/19/1939): “Whether the world has war or peace depends on the practice of this devotion, along with the consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.” ...
