St Michael said: Hail to Thee, Mary Most
Holy Daughter of God the Father”
St Gabriel said: Hail to Thee, Mary Most Holy Mother of God
the Son”
St Raphael said:” Hail to Thee, Mary Most Holy, Most
Pure Spouse of the Holy Ghost”
All together they chanted:
“Hail to Thee, Mary Most Holy Temple and Sacrarium of
the Most Holy Trinity”
Our Lady:
“Against them the impious will rage a cruel war, overwhelming
them with vituperations, calumnies and vexations in order
to stop them from fulfilling their ministry. But they,
like firm columns, will remain unswerving and will confront
everything with a spirit of humility and sacrifice with which
they will be vested, by virtue of the infinite merits of my
most Holy Son, Who will love them in the innermost fibers
of His Most Holy and Tender Heart."
“The small number of souls, who hidden, will preserve
the treasures of the Faith and practice virtue will suffer
a cruel, unspeakable and prolonged martyrdom. Many will succumb
to death from the violence of their sufferings and those who
sacrifice themselves for the Church and their country will
be counted as martyrs. In order to free men from the
bondage to these heresies, those whom the merciful love of
my most Holy Son has designated to effect the restoration,
will need great strength of will, constancy, valor and confidence
of the just. There will be occasions when all will seem
lost and paralyzed. This then will be the happy beginning
of the complete restoration.”
" Under the appearance of virtue and bad-spirited zeal,
would turn upon Religion, who nourished them at her breast."
"During this time insomuch as this poor country will
lack the Christian spirit, the Sacrament of Extreme Unction
will be little esteemed. Many people will die without receiving
it either because of the negligence of their families or their
false sentimentality that tries to protect the sick from seeing
the gravity of their situations, or because they will rebel
against the spirit of the Catholic Church, impelled by the
malice of the devil. Thus many souls will be deprived of innumerable
graces, consolations and the strength they need to make that
great leap from time to eternity..."
"As for the Sacrament of Matrimony, which symbolizes
the union of Christ with His Church, it will be attacked and
profaned in the fullest sense of the word. Masonry, which
will then be in power, will enact iniquitous laws with the
objective of doing away with this Sacrament, making it easy
for everyone to live in sin, encouraging the procreation of
illegitimate children born without the blessing of the Church.
The Christian spirit will rapidly decay, extinguishing the
precious light of Faith until if reaches the point that there
will be an almost total and general corruption of customs.
The effects of secular education will increase, which will
be one reason for the lack of priestly and religious vocations..."
"The Sacred Sacrament of Holy Orders will be ridiculed,
oppressed and despised. ...The demon will try to persecute
the Ministers of the Lord in every possible way and he will
labor with cruel and subtle astuteness to deviate them from
the spirit of their vocation, corrupting many of them. These
corrupted priests, who will scandalize the Christian people,
will incite the hatred of the bad Christians and the enemies
of the Roman, Catholic and Apostolic Church to fall upon all
priests. This apparent triumph of Satan will bring enormous
sufferings to the good Pastors of the Church...."
"Moreover, in these unhappy times, there will be unbridled
luxury which, acting thus to snare the rest into sin, will
conquer innumerable frivolous souls who will be lost. Innocence
will almost no longer be found in children, nor modesty in
women, and in this supreme moment of need of the Church, those
who should speak will fall silent."
"But know, beloved daughter, that when your name is made
known in the 20th century, there will be many who will not
believe, claiming that this devotion is not pleasing to God...A
simple humble faith in the truth of My apparitions to you,
My predilect child, will be reserved for humble and fervent
souls docile to the inspirations of grace, for Our Heavenly
Father communicates His secrets to the simple of heart, and
not to those whose hearts are inflated with pride, pretending
to know what they do not, or self-satisfied with empty knowledge."
"The secular Clergy will leave much to be desired because
priests will become careless in their sacred duties. Lacking
the divine compass, they will stray from the road traced by
God for the priestly ministry, and they will become attached
to wealth and riches, which they will unduly strive to obtain.
How the Church will suffer during this dark night! Lacking
a Prelate and Father to guide them with paternal love, gentleness,
strength, wisdom and prudence, many priests will lose their
spirit, placing their souls in great danger. This will mark
the arrival of My hour."
"Therefore, clamor insistently without tiring and weep
with bitter tears in the privacy of your heart, imploring
our Celestial Father that, for love of the Eucharistic Heart
of my Most Holy Son and His Precious Blood shed with such
generosity and the profound bitterness and sufferings of His
cruel Passion and Death, He might take pity on His ministers
and bring to an end those Ominous times, sending to this Church
the Prelate who will restore the spirit of its priests."
