The bishops of Ukraine have just asked the Pope for the consecration of Russia, and this
00:00:05.360
In fact, it's the most important news that we've seen in decades.
00:00:08.700
The reason this is so significant is because mankind was given a heavenly warning in 1917
00:00:14.680
that only by the consecration of Russia would we get to world peace.
00:00:20.320
Russia was to be consecrated to the Immaculate Heart, and it wasn't done, and it wasn't
00:00:25.560
And that was asked for first in 1917, Our Lady came back in 1929 to say, okay, now do
00:00:33.460
Didn't get done for decades and decades and decades.
00:00:37.160
Sister Lucy, one of the three seers of Fatima, one of the three children of Fatima, who still
00:00:42.940
lived on long beyond Francesco and Jacinta, who both passed away while they were children,
00:00:49.040
sister Lucia warned that Russia would be the instrument of punishment for the world if
00:00:57.660
And today, the Russian Foreign Minister warned that World War III would be nuclear and destructive.
00:01:08.420
This is The John Henry Weston Show, stay tuned.
00:01:30.180
Let's begin as we always do with the sign of the cross.
00:01:32.480
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, Amen.
00:01:39.440
There is a lot to cover here, but I'm going to just try and condense it as much as possible.
00:01:44.800
So first off, I wanted to read to you the letter from the bishops of the Ukraine to Pope Francis.
00:01:51.500
In these hours of immeasurable pain and terrible ordeal for our people, we, the bishops of the
00:01:58.340
Episcopal Conference of Ukraine, are spokesmen for the unceasing and heartfelt prayer supported
00:02:04.500
by our priests and consecrated persons, which comes to us from all Christian people, to dedicate
00:02:14.560
So this is them asking for the consecration of Russia.
00:02:19.840
Responding to this prayer, we humbly ask Your Holiness to publicly perform the act of consecration
00:02:25.620
to the Sacred Immaculate Heart of Mary of Ukraine and Russia, as requested by the Blessed
00:02:35.340
So this is their message to the Pope, asking, historically asking, for the consecration of
00:02:43.460
This message of Our Ladies, let's start with that.
00:02:46.960
Because it's actually key to understanding what we're talking about, if we actually read
00:02:51.680
This is the message Our Lady gave to the three children of Fatima.
00:02:56.520
If you go, in fact, take a look, this is the Vatican webpage where it lists the actual words
00:03:05.960
You have seen hell where the souls of poor sinners go.
00:03:09.680
Now remember, that first line comes after they saw the vision of hell.
00:03:14.200
Hell was opened up for the three children of Fatima, and they were able to see hell and
00:03:20.680
Our Lady starts with, you have seen hell where the souls of poor sinners go.
00:03:26.400
To save them, God wishes to establish in the world devotion to my Immaculate Heart.
00:03:31.560
If what I say to you is done, she says, many souls will be saved and there will be peace.
00:03:40.160
Now remember, this is 1917, so we're talking about the First World War.
00:03:46.220
But if people do not cease offending God, a worse one will break out during the pontificate
00:03:53.280
Now, interestingly there, there was no Pius XI at the time, so she's predicting the future,
00:04:01.200
She continued, when you see a night illumined by an unknown light, know that there is the
00:04:07.980
great sign given you by God that He is about to punish the world for its crimes by means
00:04:14.580
of war, famine, and persecution of the Church and the Holy Father.
00:04:22.420
There was a huge display of Northern Lights right before the Second World War.
00:04:30.860
Now listen to this, because this is the importance for our time.
00:04:33.220
I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart, and the communion
00:04:40.820
She says, if my requests are heeded, Russia will be converted, and there will be peace.
00:04:47.620
If not, she will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of
00:05:02.260
In the end, she says, in the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph, the Holy Father will consecrate
00:05:07.660
Russia to me, and she shall be converted, and a period of peace shall be granted to the
00:05:18.480
So Our Lady is warning that various nations will be annihilated, which we have not seen
00:05:26.480
This part of the Third Secret has not yet happened, but it threatens to be happening in
00:05:35.000
As I said at the outset, Foreign Minister Lavrov, who is the Foreign Minister of Russia, just spoke
00:05:41.820
about the possibility of world war erupting, and said it would be nuclear and destructive.
00:05:49.380
On December 26, 1957, Father Augustin Fuentes interviewed Sister Lucy at her convent in Coambra,
00:06:02.220
And later, with an imprimatur and the approbation or permission of the Bishop of Fatima, Father
00:06:08.560
Fuentes published the revelations concerning the Third Secret revealed to him by Sister Lucy
00:06:19.960
Tell them, Father, that many times the Most Holy Virgin told my cousins, Francisco and
00:06:25.960
Jacinta, as well as myself, that many nations will disappear from the face of the earth.
00:06:34.740
She said that Russia will be the instrument of chastisement chosen by heaven to punish the
00:06:42.040
whole world if they do not, beforehand, obtain the conversion of that poor nation, end quote.
00:06:54.800
This is 1957 warning us that Russia will be used as the instrument of punishment for the
00:07:01.480
whole world if they do not attain the conversion of that poor nation.
00:07:06.580
In February of 2002, there was an intelligence sort of journal put out by Donald McElvaney.
00:07:17.400
He runs that journal, I think still to this day, but he had a very interesting report in
00:07:24.540
He was told, he said, by one of the chief defectors, highest ranking defectors from Russia, he was
00:07:31.540
told of a, and I quote, a plan for a joint military campaign against America, waged by
00:07:40.560
Regarding the existence of a joint Russian-Chinese military plan, and this is again from McElvaney's
00:07:46.920
report, the Russian general staff was still committed to fighting and winning a future nuclear war
00:07:56.180
The nuclear war plan is still on, they told him, but there would be some changes.
00:08:02.200
No longer would Russian troops be responsible for a follow-up invasion of the lower 48 states
00:08:08.080
, Russian forces would be responsible for occupying Alaska and parts of Canada.
00:08:16.760
The Chinese would be given responsibility for occupying the lower 48 states, end quote.
00:08:23.420
So naturally, it is frightening to think of these things in our current circumstances in
00:08:29.900
the world with the threats of actual nuclear war happening with Russia.
00:08:35.380
But today, Catholics around the world can take up their spiritual weapons.
00:08:42.280
More people are now fasting and praying than at any other time.
00:08:47.720
And remember, our Lord said that some spirits can only be cast out by prayer and fasting.
00:08:55.920
But also, the solution at Fatima, the solution for world peace, is the conversion of Russia.
00:09:02.880
And the means of getting there was set out by Our Lady.
00:09:08.080
To prevent this, she said, I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate
00:09:12.540
Heart and the communion of reparation on the first Saturdays.
00:09:16.220
And that part, the communion of reparation on the first Saturdays, that's our part.
00:09:20.540
The consecration of Russia by the Pope with all the world's bishop, well, we can only ask
00:09:34.280
It involves mass, confession, communion, and five-decade rosary on the first Saturday of
00:09:40.200
the month, as well as a 15 minutes of meditation on the mysteries of the Holy Rosary, the 15
00:09:48.240
And so this confession, by the way, can be done within seven days on either side.
00:09:56.860
Mass, confession, communion, obviously always in the state of grace, and the rosary and
00:10:06.460
Now, if you're wondering, some people have a hard time with the meditation bit.
00:10:10.120
I did a video on that meditation, a 15-minute video, meditating on the 15 decades of the Holy
00:10:18.940
And finally, let me address one controversy which surrounds the consecration, namely that
00:10:24.180
some contest that this consecration of Russia has already been done in 1984 by John Paul II.
00:10:29.360
Well, first of all, we know that Pope John Paul II wanted desperately to do exactly as Our Lady
00:10:35.280
asked us to do, and that was to mention Russia, but he was forbidden to do so by his entourage
00:10:40.780
who warned him of grave geopolitical consequences were he to single out Russia.
00:10:45.780
So he consecrated the world in 1984, not Russia specifically, as Our Lady had requested.
00:10:52.160
In fact, the promise of Our Lady saying that Russia's conversion, there would be a period
00:10:58.840
of peace in the world resulting from that consecration, has obviously not happened.
00:11:04.160
If anybody believes that there's been peace in the world since 1984, you must believe that Our Lady
00:11:11.340
somehow did not include peace in the womb, where millions and millions and millions of innocent
00:11:24.340
So, at the centenary of Fatima in 2017, Cardinal Raymond Burke, speaking at the Rome Life Forum,
00:11:30.900
which was founded by LifeSite News, by the way, called Faithful to ask the Pope to consecrate
00:11:35.720
Russia to the Immaculate Heart in the manner Our Lady explicitly asked for.
00:11:40.820
Let us consecrate ourselves to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and work for the consecration
00:11:50.840
Finally, Pope St. John Paul II consecrated the world, including Russia, to the Immaculate
00:12:00.660
But today, once again, we hear the call of Our Lady of Fatima to consecrate Russia to her
00:12:06.960
Immaculate Heart in accord with her explicit instruction.
00:12:15.080
Bishop Athanasius Schneider, whom we all know and love, enthusiastically supported this call
00:12:20.720
And now, they are joined by all the bishops of Ukraine, who have just, by the way, amidst
00:12:27.640
great suffering for their people, have just asked for the consecration of Russia to the
00:12:36.040
Let's ask the Pope ourselves to consecrate Russia.
00:12:37.960
In fact, there's a petition at LifeSite asking the Pope for that very thing.
00:12:41.960
Let's also make the first Saturday devotion on the first Saturday of every month, starting
00:12:54.640
Our Lady foretold that the consecration would happen.
00:13:01.720
She said, in the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph.
00:13:05.560
The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, and she shall be converted, and a period of
00:13:14.140
For LifeSite News, this is John Henry Weston, and may God bless you.
00:13:20.560
We have been warning everyone who would listen and attempting to build up alternative platforms
00:13:28.540
We have established ourselves on all sorts of platforms I'm going to explain in a minute,
00:13:32.680
but the most important thing to do is come direct to LifeSiteNews.com, because there we
00:13:39.500
But we've also established ourselves on platforms like Parler and MeWe, and our videos can be
00:13:47.640
We would love to see each of you on those platforms too, as they are not censoring or
00:13:52.560
suppressing the truth that we are sharing every single day.
00:13:56.800
More than these alternative social media platforms, we highly encourage you to subscribe to our email
00:14:03.600
We have really built up a large list of loyal readers on our email marketing platform, and
00:14:09.080
we have prepared several backup plans for, well, I want to say if, but it's really when,
00:14:15.580
we are removed from our current platform as well.
00:14:19.080
Additionally, I really encourage you, as I said before, to make it a regular habit to go
00:14:28.800
While all of these different platforms are an excellent way to curate your news, going
00:14:33.680
directly to our website means that you will never encounter any censorship or sudden loss
00:14:46.000
We founded this organization with the mission to be the life, family, and culture source
00:14:54.720
We have established a track record of honest reports, and this will never stop, even with
00:15:03.760
Again, I'm encouraging you to join us on Parler, MeWe, Rumble, and on our email list.
00:15:10.300
You can find all the direct links in the description of this video.
00:15:15.300
May God bless you and keep you, and we are so thankful that you've chosen to follow and
