The John-Henry Westen Show - Russia and its Future Role in Defeating Islam According to Prophecy

00:00:00.000 In many ways, Islam and communism are very much aligned ideologically.

00:00:06.280 So in that sense, and then they also have a common enemy, namely Christ and his church.

00:00:11.360 So it kind of makes sense why they would be aligned.

00:00:16.320 The conflict between Ukraine and Russia shows no sign of slowing down.

00:00:21.040 In fact, things seem to be heating up.

00:00:24.100 And it seems like a lot of parties are pushing for war, even nuclear war.

00:00:28.480 At least nobody's hiding from it.

00:00:30.220 Well, we have a very interesting guest with us today.

00:00:33.840 Matt Gaspers is the managing editor of Catholic Family News.

00:00:37.780 And I saw him about five years ago give a talk about Russia.

00:00:41.820 It was actually about Russia and Islam.

00:00:44.320 And I'd love to talk to him about what's going on with Russia.

00:00:49.540 Because we were expecting, of course, Russia's conversion since Pope Francis did a consecration of Russia. 0.68

00:00:56.500 But there's all sorts of controversy there.

00:00:58.700 Obviously, that's not happened.

00:01:00.920 There was also promised to be peace in the world.

00:01:03.640 We're certainly not seeing that.

00:01:06.080 So what are we going to get to?

00:01:09.060 Stay tuned for this episode of The John Henry Weston Show with Matt Gaspers.

00:01:12.340 Matt, welcome to the program.

00:01:41.020 Thank you for having me, John Henry.

00:01:42.940 Good to see you.

00:01:43.940 Let's begin, as you always do, with the sign of the cross.

00:01:45.740 In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

00:01:50.040 Amen.

00:01:50.440 So let's talk, first of all, about the situation.

00:01:55.220 Right now, the world is in real consternation, although a lot of people don't seem to be paying much attention to it.

00:02:01.720 Back in the day when it was the Cold War and, you know, there was nuclear talk on the horizon from political leaders.

00:02:08.060 People were practicing how to hide under their desks.

00:02:11.120 We're not having much of that, but it's being spoken of by world leaders, nonetheless.

00:02:17.180 What's your take on what's going on right now in Russia, Ukraine, and the conflict?

00:02:21.880 I agree.

00:02:22.460 It's a very serious situation.

00:02:23.860 I just noticed earlier this week, actually, I saw a headline that says Russia is, quote, willing to speak with Pope Francis about the war in Ukraine.

00:02:34.020 And the lead line says Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said his government is willing to talk with Pope Francis, the United States, and France to find a solution to the war in Ukraine.

00:02:46.240 And he's quoted as saying, we are willing to discuss all this, meaning the situation in Ukraine, with the Americans, with the French, and with the pontiff.

00:02:54.960 So that's an interesting development.

00:02:56.760 There's a prophecy running around that I've spoken of before with one of the experts on Garabandal that talks about how once the pope leaves or he goes to visit Russia, once he returns, Moscow, that is, once he returns, that war would break out in Europe.

00:03:14.520 So that would be a very interesting development indeed.

00:03:17.720 In fact, Francis said before coming to Canada, as he just recently did, that he would be still going to Moscow.

00:03:24.680 So very, very interesting.

00:03:27.080 I think that there are bad actors on both sides.

00:03:30.220 I mean, I do think that the West and NATO, et cetera, has really, they seem to really want this conflict.

00:03:37.060 They've kind of been, by adding more and more countries and expanding eastward, the NATO alliance, which Russia has made very clear is a non-negotiable existential threat to our country, and that we will eventually respond if you continue to do this.

00:03:55.180 I think there was a lot of things, very messed up things, that happened in Ukraine during the Obama administration in 2013, 2014, which I know we have audio recordings of, forget the late, I think her last name was Nuland, basically admitting on tape to helping install this puppet regime that Washington wanted, the Obama administration wanted.

00:04:16.400 I really appreciated earlier this year, Patrick Delaney's report for LifeSite News called Monumental Provocation, how U.S. and international policymakers deliberately baited Putin to war.

00:04:30.060 It's a very well-sourced, very thorough, lengthy report on all of this with lots of sources linked in it.

00:04:36.120 Absolutely. He's got another one of those right now as well about the recent taking out of the pipeline and what that means for Europe and the responsibility there. So check that out as well.

00:04:49.020 I certainly don't want to pretend that the West is somehow the innocent victim in all of this. I don't think that's true. But at the same time, we also have to remember that Vladimir Putin himself, back in July of 2001, signed a treaty of good neighborliness and friendly cooperation with communist China.

00:05:10.920 And it says in the text that they have, quote, the hope of promoting and establishing a just and fair new world order based on universally recognized principles and norms of international laws.

00:05:24.520 And we also know that just before the start of this current conflict, Vladimir Putin went to the communist China for the beginning of, I think it was the Olympic Games and released a statement with President Xi Jinping.

00:05:41.420 So this is their joint statement that they issued just before the conflict broke out. I think it was issued like February 4th, something like that.

00:05:47.580 Today, the world is going through momentous changes and humanity is entering a new era of rapid development and profound transformation, including, quote, transformation of the global governance architecture and world order.

00:06:03.540 So in my view, the new world order, the deep state, whatever you want to call it, has Western and Eastern branches competing for dominance.

00:06:12.920 So I mean, that's kind of my general take on the situation.

00:06:16.600 But, you know, from heaven's perspective, Russia has been chosen very much like St. Paul was chosen to be a vessel of election is what God referred to St. Paul to be an instrument of conversion for the Gentiles, for the whole world. 0.58

00:06:33.060 And, you know, that's where Russia, you know, where it comes into the conversion of the Muslims and the end of Islam, as I said in my 2017 talk, it's all connected to the message of Our Lady of Fatima and her promise that in the end, her immaculate heart will triumph.

00:06:51.240 The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, Our Lady said, when she will be converted and a period of peace will be granted to the world.

00:06:59.620 So those are the promised fruits. Those are the promised fruits that we have to look for.

00:07:04.240 And specifically, we need to understand that the word conversion, according to Sister Lucia herself, I want to read this quote that I have here that I mentioned in my 2017 talk, because it's very important to understand.

00:07:17.620 A lot of people will tell you that, you know, Sister Lucia thought or the word conversion simply means the fall of the Soviet Union.

00:07:26.240 And that is not so. Father, a priest named Father Joaquin Alonso, who was the official Fatima archivist for over 16 years and conducted numerous one-on-one interviews with Sister Lucia during that time.

00:07:40.440 He wrote in 1976 in his book, The Truth About the Secret of Fatima, he wrote the following,

00:07:47.200 Lucia has always thought that the conversion of Russia does not extend only to a return of the Russian people to the Christian Orthodox religion while rejecting the Marxist atheism of the Soviets.

00:08:00.580 And if you think about it for a minute, it makes perfect sense, because when Our Lady came in 1917 and she said Russia would be converted, that's what she already was, Russian Orthodox.

00:08:10.660 So, you know, when Our Lady says conversion, she doesn't mean returning to a state of objective schism and heresy.

00:08:19.220 She, as Sister Lucia, as this quote goes on from Father Alonso, he says,

00:08:23.280 You know, Russian Christians before the Great Schism and even technically even after the Great Schism for a couple centuries were in communion with Rome.

00:08:42.840 So, she's talking about a return to Catholic unity.

00:08:46.760 And it's obvious, I think, to, well, it should be obvious to everyone, but I think at this point it should be that Russia just isn't there.

00:08:54.820 It's not there in terms of Catholicism, obviously.

00:08:57.800 They, I mean, I was in Russia in 20, I believe it was 2018, but, you know, you had to drive 45 minutes to find a Catholic church.

00:09:06.200 So, there's a real repression of Catholicism in Russia.

00:09:09.660 And, but also, you know, obviously what's going on with the war and the brutality of it is another sign that there is definitely something up with Russia and there's no peace as well.

00:09:20.700 I'm not saying there's any great shakes about Zelenko either.

00:09:24.040 We know he's in the antithesis of what you'd want as a leader because he's pro-death and the whole anti-family agenda is strong with him.

00:09:35.960 But, yes, very, very confusing times, but evidently there is no yet conversion of Russia or peace being granted to the world.

00:09:46.060 And yet there was that, you know, consecration of Russia to Our Lady by Pope Francis.

00:09:53.300 And so people are left to wonder what does that mean?

00:09:57.200 One of the things I think it certainly means is that, you know, it must be something other than Our Lady's promise.

00:10:05.540 Our Lady's promise is sure.

00:10:07.000 Fatima is sure.

00:10:07.980 That message is sure.

00:10:09.380 We have no doubt whatsoever about that.

00:10:12.740 So we have to then look at what's what.

00:10:15.480 Is it just to be a great delay or is that not the case?

00:10:19.980 And if it's not the case, then what really is up?

00:10:22.520 So I'd love for you to take a shot at that first.

00:10:24.860 It's very important for people to understand that Our Lady gave very specific conditions for the fulfillment of the consecration.

00:10:33.180 And I note them in articles I've written about Pope Francis' March 25th consecration.

00:10:39.240 So in short, there are basically five things that need to be fulfilled simultaneously.

00:10:45.620 First of all, it must be the Pope who publicly performs the consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

00:10:51.600 Hence, number two, he must name Russia explicitly as the object of consecration.

00:10:58.000 And as we know from the wording of Pope Francis' consecration, he did name Russia, but Russia did not actually appear as the sole object of consecration.

00:11:08.180 This is what he said.

00:11:09.080 He said, quote,

00:11:10.400 Therefore, Mother of God and our Mother, to your Immaculate Heart, we solemnly entrust and consecrate ourselves, referring to everyone who was in St. Peter's Basilica for the ceremony.

00:11:22.180 And he also said,

00:11:23.720 The Church and all humanity, especially Russia and Ukraine, accept this act that we carry out with confidence and love, grant that war may end and peace spread throughout the world.

00:11:37.380 Sadly, that has not yet happened, what Pope Francis asked of Our Lady, that war may end and peace spread throughout the world.

00:11:44.060 And you could argue that, obviously, it was the Pope who did the consecration.

00:11:48.240 He did name Russia explicitly, but then we get to the third criteria, which Our Lady specified.

00:11:54.440 It must be the Pope.

00:11:56.380 The Pope must order all the bishops of the world to make the consecration of Russia to Our Lady's Immaculate Heart.

00:12:03.140 And then it has to be in union with him and at the same time.

00:12:09.140 So Pope Francis did issue, through the apostolic nuncious shurs throughout the world, an invitation to bishops, and he strongly encouraged them.

00:12:18.480 But it was not technically a command to participate in the ceremony with him.

00:12:23.020 And something else that Sister Lucia mentioned as necessary, in order for the consecration to actually convert Russia, this is the fifth criteria, the public ceremony must involve a conspicuous day of prayer and worldwide reparation.

00:12:41.180 Number one, we obviously haven't seen the promised fruits.

00:12:43.940 We have not seen the conversion of Russia to Catholic unity, nor have we seen a miraculous period of peace granted for the world.

00:12:53.020 Our Lady did not promise that those things would happen instantaneously after the consecration.

00:12:59.440 But as I've said before, I don't think there can be too much time.

00:13:04.640 There can't be so much time in between the act of consecration and the promised fruits that there becomes a disconnect in people's minds between the cause and effect relationship of the two things.

00:13:16.860 So, you know, if it didn't happen for like two or three generations, I don't think most people would put the two things together as, oh, that consecration caused these things.

00:13:27.680 I think it has to be relatively close in time in order to keep that intact.

00:13:32.380 I think the great apostle of Fatima, Father Gruner, he probably thought it was going to be so close that there would be no mistaking.

00:13:41.720 And perhaps he gave hints that that was the reason why all the bishops of the world had to do it, not whenever they wanted in the same day and different time zones, but actually all at the same exact moment.

00:13:54.400 Because I think he believed, he's probably the most studied or was the most studied guy on the question of Fatima itself.

00:14:02.300 He believed that it would be sort of instantaneous, at least so related that people could see on this hour at this time.

00:14:10.660 And that's very biblical.

00:14:12.080 Remember when Christ heals people, they will go home and inquire, what was the hour that this, you know, my daughter was better again?

00:14:20.500 I was right when Christ said those words.

00:14:22.060 So there is that relation already scripturally that's in the divine plan.

00:14:27.000 So that sounds like it could be something, you know, that makes a lot of sense.

00:14:31.240 So we'll see what it brings.

00:14:34.040 Since you brought up Father Gruner, I do have an interesting quote to share with you.

00:14:37.520 He spoke about this, what it would look like, kind of the process of Russia converting and such.

00:14:45.520 2007 conference speech that he gave, and I quoted in my 2017 talk, he said, quote,

00:14:51.400 In the prophetic visions of St. John Bosco, we see that the Pope will not consecrate Russia until Russia invades the West. 0.88

00:14:59.220 St. John Bosco had a vision of the Russian armies in France, and they have not been there yet this century for the last 100 years.

00:15:07.460 They will bring with them a black standard or a black flag. 0.98

00:15:12.280 While they are in France, their standard will turn from black to white. 0.87

00:15:16.960 That moment will be when Russia has been consecrated and it has converted. 0.85

00:15:22.240 The Russian armies then will stay in France and Western Europe, not as enemies, but as friends, to defend Europe from the invasion from the south.

00:15:32.360 As St. John Bosco summarizes his dream, salvation is from the north, danger is from the south, meaning the Islamic armies that are marching into Europe. 1.00

00:15:43.640 The Russians stay there, Father Gruner said, when they are converted and defeat the Islamic armies and save Europe. 0.92

00:15:53.020 So that's very interesting.

00:15:55.140 Very interesting indeed.

00:15:56.760 Yeah, I'd love to hear your take with regard to Russia and Islam and how all that figures in right now.

00:16:01.320 So something else I brought up in my 2017 talk is that there's really been historically an alliance between Soviet Russia, which I know the Soviet Union fell in 1991.

00:16:14.760 But some insiders have argued that it was actually more of a controlled demolition than really an organic crumbling of the regime.

00:16:23.640 Soviet Russia, it's been well documented, had a very vested interest in co-opting Islam and using its adherents for their own purposes.

00:16:34.320 And that's been documented by two Soviet defectors, both of whom have close ties to the KGB.

00:16:40.360 They are both now deceased.

00:16:42.300 The first one is Anatoly Golitsyn, who died in 2008.

00:16:46.060 He's the author of two very important books, New Lies for Old and the Perestroika Deception.

00:16:53.600 And the other is Ian Mahai Pachepa, who died more recently.

00:16:58.660 And he's the former head of intelligence for communist Romania, who defected to the U.S. in 1978.

00:17:05.200 And he wrote a book called Disinformation in 2013.

00:17:08.700 So starting with Golitsyn, he wrote in New Lies for Old, published in 1984, quote,

00:17:17.420 there's a special word needs to be said on the exploitation of religion and leading churchmen in the communist world for strategic political purposes.

00:17:26.640 You know, the Russian Orthodox Church for decades has been infested with, you know, basically couldn't become a bishop if you weren't a KGB agent.

00:17:34.140 And sadly, that's still the case with their current patriarch, his former KGB.

00:17:41.100 But going on in New Lies for Old, he says,

00:17:44.940 In March 1965, the first conference of Muslims of Asia and Africa was held in Indonesia.

00:17:52.840 Thirty-five countries were represented.

00:17:55.120 The Mufti of Central Asia and Kazakhstan, Babakhanov, led the Soviet delegation.

00:18:01.300 The conference discussed the use of Muslim proselytizing societies as weapons against imperialism, meaning the West.

00:18:10.460 The need to harness Islam, Golitsyn said, to the service of the revolution has been openly discussed by communist strategists.

00:18:19.320 Based on Soviet experience in Central Asia, like the former Soviet republics ending in Stan, like Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan,

00:18:28.500 Golitsyn wrote, the problem of achieving this is considered difficult but soluble.

00:18:34.840 And he went on to say in a footnote to that section of the text, he's quoting a Soviet Afghan scholar who wrote, quote,

00:18:44.600 Albeit difficult, it is fully realistic in some way to enlist Islam in serving the revolution and the building of a new life.

00:18:54.500 You know, at first glance, it seems very strange that there would be collaboration, cooperation between an atheistic communist system and a religion.

00:19:03.400 But as I also discuss in my talk, they're actually ideological allies in many ways.

00:19:11.480 I quote pretty extensively from a professor of history from, let me make sure I get his name right,

00:19:19.160 Professor Dennis Dunn, who teaches at Texas State University and he specializes in Russian history.

00:19:26.320 He's written a couple of books on the subject and he explains in one of his books called A History of Orthodox Islamic and Western Christian Political Values,

00:19:38.240 basically demonstrates how Russian Orthodoxy, Eastern Orthodoxy in general, but Russian specifically, and Islam agree on several different things.

00:19:47.460 First of all, that the church or the mosque and state should be virtually a single entity. 0.96

00:19:53.960 In Orthodoxy, the state sadly controls the church, and in Islam, it's the other way around. 0.88

00:19:58.820 The mosque controls the state. 1.00

00:20:01.180 Number two, the ruler's power should be absolute, in other words, beyond scrutiny from subordinates.

00:20:07.600 Government should be centralized and admit of no self-direction for local communities, in other words, totalitarian.

00:20:14.560 The community as a whole always trumps the individual or smaller groups within society, so it's a form of collectivism.

00:20:22.560 And then finally, the central government should control the economy.

00:20:25.440 So, as I said in my talk, right away, we should recognize the stark contrast between this value system that I just described and the one held by Western civilization,

00:20:36.660 which holds the principles such as the rule of law, first and foremost, the natural law, to which even the ruler himself is subject,

00:20:43.840 obviously individual freedom and responsibility, the principle of subsidiarity, a healthy distinction between church and state,

00:20:51.840 as being sovereign institutions with complementary God-given missions, but they shouldn't be run by one or the other.

00:20:59.640 They are distinct, and lots of other things like that.

00:21:02.920 So, in many ways, Islam and communism are very much aligned ideologically.

00:21:10.780 So, in that sense, and then they also have a common enemy, namely Christ and his church.

00:21:15.480 So, it kind of makes sense why they would be aligned.

00:21:18.240 Yeah, it's also fascinating because in terms of Catholic prophecy, there was Catholic prophecy that the Vatican would be invaded by Islam, not so much by the Russians.

00:21:30.780 But so, I just wondered how that would be.

00:21:33.280 But your quote there about how they'd invade from the south does seem to make sense as things line up.

00:21:42.340 There are lots of Catholic prophecies concerning all of this, kind of specifically regarding two figures, the great monarch you may have heard of, who's supposed to arise.

00:21:53.560 It's in lots of different private revelations, church-approved private revelations, prophecies.

00:21:58.700 And then also the angelic pope, who's supposed to kind of be his spiritual counterpart to lead this Catholic renaissance throughout the world.

00:22:07.500 And part of it definitely has to address the situation with Islam.

00:22:12.720 So, there's a book that was originally published in 1970 by Yves Dupont called Catholic Prophecy, The Coming Chastisement.

00:22:20.840 It's available from TAN Books.

00:22:23.220 And he gives kind of a general overview.

00:22:25.780 Before going into the particular prophecies, he gives a general overview of the contents of the book, in which is included the following.

00:22:32.820 Before the rise of the great monarch and the angelic pope, he says, quote,

00:22:38.320 The whole world will be involved in the fighting.

00:22:40.680 There'll be some sort of world, like global war going on.

00:22:44.020 A unique feature is the internal disintegration of the Western democracies and the invasion of Western Europe by Arab forces. 1.00

00:22:52.640 The roles of the USA and USSR, or Russia, he was writing in 1970, so it was still the Soviet Union.

00:23:00.880 The roles of the US and Russia are not clear in the beginning.

00:23:05.200 The USA may be involved in the Far East or at home or both.

00:23:09.680 The USSR may want to keep out of the fray at first while abetting the Arab world or may be involved in Siberia.

00:23:16.700 But he goes on to say, civil wars will rage in Western Europe.

00:23:21.000 The church is persecuted.

00:23:22.780 The pope leaves Rome and dies in exile.

00:23:25.640 And that certainly aligns with the message of Fatima in light of the third secret text that was released in 2000.

00:23:32.200 We know he will be killed by a group of soldiers who fired bullets and arrows at him.

00:23:37.260 He also says, DuPont says, an anti-pope is installed in Rome.

00:23:41.620 He goes on, the Catholic Church is split, leaderless, and completely disorganized.

00:23:47.660 Communism is victorious.

00:23:49.760 The Mohammedans invade Europe and commit innumerable atrocities. 1.00

00:23:54.380 And this also seems to align with another prophecy given by Our Lady to an Italian nun named Elena Aiello, who died in 1961.

00:24:08.180 One, she was the foundress of the minimum tertiary of the passion of our Lord Jesus Christ and religious order.

00:24:15.900 And in the year 1960, providentially the same year that the third secret was supposed to be read by the pope and revealed to the world,

00:24:25.920 she said the following, Our Lady rather, said the following to Sister Elena, quote,

00:24:31.200 And do not return to God with truly Christian living. 1.00

00:24:59.800 Another terrible war will come from the east to the west. 0.89

00:25:04.980 Russia, with her secret armies, will battle America, will overrun Europe. 0.96

00:25:11.040 The River Rhine will be overflowing with corpses and blood.

00:25:15.640 Italy also will be harassed by a great revolution, and the pope will suffer greatly.

00:25:20.860 Our world is completely upside down, and it looks like, you know, it was the quote of, I think it was the wife of Billy Graham,

00:25:30.340 who said if God doesn't do something soon, he's going to have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah.

00:25:33.600 But it certainly seemed like that for such a long time now, because we've gone so far beyond even gay marriage, 1.00

00:25:43.020 which was probably one of the things that set everything afoot with regard to Sodom and Gomorrah.

00:25:49.160 And yet here we're just continuing down this road into transgender and the surgeries on the kids themselves, 0.68

00:25:57.620 intergenerational sex.

00:25:58.860 Literally, we've opened the total Pandora's box, and we're getting to the dregs of it.

00:26:02.780 I don't know where else we can go.

00:26:05.660 So a chastisement does seem fitting. 0.97

00:26:10.420 For all of us, though, you know, we have looked to Our Lady of Fatima, to these promises,

00:26:16.600 especially that for peace.

00:26:17.980 Having studied this, looked at this yourself, you've got family.

00:26:21.080 You've got young kids.

00:26:22.160 What's your outlook?

00:26:23.380 You still look hopeful rather than dour about what we're facing right now.

00:26:29.260 What's the source of that hope?

00:26:30.900 A lot of it has to do with the message of Our Lady of Fatima, studying that and knowing, you know,

00:26:36.960 that God confirmed the message of Our Lady of Fatima with a miracle of biblical proportions.

00:26:43.440 As you know, on October 13, 1917, probably the 20th century's best-kept secret in many ways,

00:26:52.340 a crowd of over 70,000 people saw the sun dance in the sky, you know, emitting all the different colors of the rainbow.

00:27:00.640 And it had been raining the whole night beforehand.

00:27:02.760 And, you know, people were walking in mud up to their ankles.

00:27:06.880 And at the end of this public miracle, which lasted, I think, around 10 minutes or so,

00:27:13.060 people realized that their clothes were completely dry and clean,

00:27:18.620 almost as if Our Lady had cleaned all of them up personally as the good mother that she is.

00:27:23.860 So we know that this message has the seal of approval of Almighty God Himself through that miracle.

00:27:30.660 And Our Lady said, as I quoted earlier,

00:27:33.920 In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph.

00:27:37.320 The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, and she shall be converted. 0.89

00:27:42.820 And a period of peace will be granted to the world.

00:27:45.840 She revealed that, of course, to the three shepherd children, the oldest of whom became Sister Lucia, a nun.

00:27:52.200 And throughout Sister Lucia's life, Our Lady continued to appear to her periodically.

00:27:56.600 She was basically the apostle, you might say, of the message of Our Lady of Fatima.

00:28:02.320 And on one occasion, I remember Our Lady telling her that, you know, the Pope will do the consecration, but it will be late.

00:28:09.700 And that probably means that it will, you know, things will get pretty bad before the definitive consecration actually happens.

00:28:18.580 Whether or not that was the consecration Francis did on March 25th of this year or not, things, it will be a dire situation.

00:28:27.980 But we, you know, the hope that we have is that Our Lady tells the truth, and we can trust in Her promise that, in the end, Her Immaculate Heart will triumph, and Russia will be converted.

00:28:40.120 We will have a period of peace.

00:28:42.300 I think the most important thing for all of us as individual Catholics, Christians, is to stay close to Our Lady.

00:28:48.260 Certainly praying the rosary, doing the five first Saturdays devotion of making reparation to Her Immaculate Heart.

00:28:56.140 Sister Lucia said in one of her letters to her spiritual director that whether or not the world has war or peace depends on the practice of this devotion, referring to the first Saturdays devotion, as well as the consecration of Russia.

00:29:11.800 So the laity do have their part to play in making those communions of reparations, doing the things that Our Lady said to do on the first Saturday of each month, going to confession, receiving communion, praying five decades of the rosary, and spending 15 minutes meditating on the mysteries of the rosary, all with the intention of making a reparation to Her Immaculate Heart.

00:29:35.800 So I think we have to do our part and trust that God and Our Lady will come through at the appointed time.

00:29:44.720 Amen to that. We're always in His hands, and He will never give us anything that we can't bear up under.

00:29:51.480 He won't give us a cross too heavy for us, with His grace, of course.
