Consecration of Russia and Ukraine to the Immaculate Heart of Mary

The Apostolic Nuncio of the United States has sent an urgent communique to the nation’s Bishops, informing them that the Holy Father is inviting each bishop to join him in an Act of Consecration of Russia and Ukraine to the Immaculate Heart of Mary on the Feast of the Annunciation, Friday, March 25^th .  The consecration will take place at 5:00 PM Rome time.  Pope Francis is also sending a Cardinal to represent him and lead the consecration in Fatima, Portugal.

The Holy Father clearly has in mind Our Lady of Fatima’s words and request those many decades ago.

While the scourge of war wages on this earth, we know it is not unconnected to a larger, cosmic battle between good and evil.  The forces of hell will no doubt try to prevent this consecration from occurring as God desires.

We encourage all the friends of the FSSP to unite your prayers and sacrifices to this intention, that the consecration be made according to God’s holy will and draw down immense graces for Russia, Ukraine, and the entire world.

We also remind you of Our Lady of Fatima’s request to do penance, to pray the Rosary, and to make the Five First Saturdays:  https://fssp.com/a-short-history-of-the-first-saturday-devotions/
